Wonderful, quiet 5-star condo with very thoughtful responsive host

Had a wonderful stay at this lovely, quiet 5-star condo very convenient to the local area. Host was welcoming, very responsive via email or text message. Very easy check-in process to access the condo. Condo was very clean, spacious, with a well-stocked kitchen with many thoughtful touches. Host had a wonderful small supply of treats (tea, Keurig K-cups, instant oatmeal, popcorn, mints) to enjoy. Beds were clean and comfortable with linens in very good shape. Wi-fi worked well with more than adequate bandwidth for a party of three using multiple laptops and tablets. Website photos are representative of the condo. Host provided a very helpful guest book of local dining options, points of interest, etc. We ate in at several restaurants in the downtown area that were excellent: good food, good value for money and very pleasant outdoor atmosphere. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and look forward to staying here again.

Perfect Location in Banner Elk

My husband and I came to Banner Elk with friends for a trip to the mountains and wineries. This location was a perfect base as we were near Grandfather Mountain, Boone, NC State Parks and wineries! Main St. Banner Elk was a very short walk - loved walking to town for a stroll on the Greenway and ice cream. Condo was lovely - enough room for our group and kitchen had everything we needed to cook when we ate in on some nights. When we visit, we'll definitely stay here!

Great get-away for our family!

We enjoyed staying here for our ski trip to NC. Its location is perfect in downtown banner elk. It's so close that we could walk to dinner! It's also a great location for anyone wanting to ski both Beech and Sugar Mountain as we did. Our family of 5 was very comfortable here.

Great communication, Excellent Host, Needs Update

The host was very gracious and thoughtful. The place was clean. The entire check in/out process was easy. Instructions were very clear. They even had "extras" of things we forgot, which came in super handy. You could walk to town. It's up a hill, but not overwhelming... Only a few nitpicks: The pillows were not good. The towels and washcloths were not good. The fireplace didn't work. The shower was incredibly small (I'm an average sized person). It is an older cabin. It could use an update.

Great find and terrific location!

This is a well-appointed unit that was clean and suited our needs just right. Only a couple notes: parking is very much a challenge so bring the smallest vehicle you can get away with and the TV could be a little bigger. Otherwise, a really great place and nice stay.

Mountain R&R

Everything was great from the drive in to the host and the property. The condo was 2 short blocks from downtown. You can see the town from the balcony and at night it lights up like a Christmas village. It was cute. We were in for a quick getaway to relax and we did just that. We drove up beech mountain to Fred’s Deli and we visited the Banner Elk winery. All were Amazing! We will be back. Thanks Lillian for everything!

About the host

Hosted by Lillian Hughes

Hi, I'm Lillian. I'm a 50 year old almost empty-nester that has found a new joy on becoming a short-term rental host! It is a pleasure to meet and to help families or friends to have a memorable trip in Banner Elk.

Why they chose this property

We have always loved the mountains in North Carolina! And having a place so close to many nature trails, skiing resorts, and in the middle of a charming town like Banner Elk, makes relaxing very easy. My husband and I want to open our home-away-from-home to any travelers who enjoy the mountains the way we do!

What makes this property unique

The location of our condo is ideal for families, couples and groups of friends that look to be close to nature and enjoy the mountains: hiking, skiing, water rafting, etc. but also like to dine out, shop and enjoy cultural activities offered in town. The best of both worlds!
