Fantastic Property

Absolutely great place to stay while in Banner Elk. We’ve be coming to the area for 3 years to visit our son multiple times (5-6 a year) and this is the first time we have booked a property we had previously rented. Communication is good and clear; property has everything you could possibly need, and the view from the balcony is spectacular. We will be staying here again.

Friends Ski Trip

The property was as advertised. Beautiful condo with a great view of the mountains and you can see the slopes of Sugar Mountain at night. Short drive up the mountain to Beech Mountain and short drive to the town of Banner Elk. Perfect location to take advantage of the ski resorts and towns. I would highly recommend this property.

Perfect place for a ski vacation

This condo was the perfect place for a long weekend ski trip with the family! It was easy to get to even in the snow since the road up to it was plowed and the condo was on and end so there was a nice yard area to play in the snow. The location was perfect, a 5 min drive to banner elk and only 15 min from beech mountain skiing. The place was very clean, the decor made it feel like a cozy cabin. It was also stocked with everything we needed. The view of the mountains was gorgeous and the second floor loft game room was a fun and unique feature. It had an arcade golf game, a casino table, and table shuffleboard. I now have great memories thanks to this place and would gladly stay here again.

How to Improve

The place is beautiful and spcaious. However, there were some small items that puzzled us. For example, there was no soap provided for the showers and there was no facial tissues provided either. If the owner chose not to provide these items, it would have been helpful to know in advance so that we would have brught our own. We certainly managed but it was not expected, as this was a luxury style condo.
