Great mountain retreat

We really enjoyed the property. Cozy, quiet, and beautiful. Plenty of space for everyone and we loved all the hang out areas. my only recommendation would be some window coverings in the Master Suite so the early morning sun doesn't wake you.

Incredible views

Our family had a wonderful time during our stay. The views from the hot tub/deck, the all winter porch, the living room, and pretty much any room on the Mountain View side of the home had spectacular views. I think the pictures do not display justice as to how beautiful the views are. The steps are curved and steep, some of the ceilings are Low or angled but we really enjoyed the home. Just a heads up there are no curtains or blinds in the master, privacy is not an issue but the sun does come right in.

Elk River Cabin 4th of July

We loved the Elk River Cabin, it was so well equipped, clean, full of character in a beautiful setting. This cabin would be challenging for someone who has difficulty with stairs. We would definitely rent it again.

Beautiful Cabin, Amazing Location!

This is such a great cabin with amazing views, and a great location! Minutes from main street in Banner Elk, but it feels like you're totally secluded. There was more than enough room for our family of 4 and two dogs. The cabin is very clean, has everything you need and is so comfortable! Marsha was fantastic and was super responsive. Thanks for a fun, memorable family vacation. We can't wait to come back!
