What's nearby

  • This is the headstone of Banner Elk, North Carolina. This elk has been in the town forever, but this past year the elk has been refurbished and installed as the centerpiece of the town. This elk frames Appalachia in the sense of this small town pride in the mountains. In the background you can see the historic elementary school and rolling mountains and once again the North Carolina pride of the state flag surrounding this elk even though about 100ft to the right there is another flagpole with the same flags raised high and proud. This is where every child in this town went to school in this picturesque location but as time rolls on is Appalachia move on too? #appalachianechoes

Great little spot!

We had family staying elsewhere in Banner Elk and used that location a lot but the house was clean, beds comfortable and the porch was a great place to relax. Being able to bring our dogs was a big plus. Our one suggestion is to add more outlets in the kitchen. Unless we unplugged the microwave or coffee maker, we had to plug the toaster in by the TV in the living room. Overall, thanks for a great stay! We would definitely come back!

Bearadise was Paradise!!!!

WOW....what a wonderful, peaceful stay. The unit was great. The view, the weather, the location were wonderful. If I had to point out anything negative it was that the front porch light was out. (It was supposed to stay on at all times.) Other then that minor thing, we will definitely be returning!!! What a great place!!!!

Not what I expected

First impression, very cute cabin duplex; close to downtown. Easy driveway to get in and out of. Not a 5 minute walk but quick and easy driving distance. Cleaners had not come when we arrived for check in, host was apologetic and graciously offered us refund for our stay. Wish we had arrived to a clean cabin - looked like it would’ve been a fun house.

Love Banner Elk!

This town and community is the cutest thing ever. We came up here to ski Beech Mountain and Sugar Mountain and thought we would stay in between the two mountains in Banner Elk. This little cabin was perfectly situated and walking distance to great restaurants (recommend Stone Wall) and just 15 minutes to each mountain. It was the perfect little rental for two couples. We had Bearside #2 and we could hear the footsteps of Bearside 3 as I'm sure Bearside #1 could hear ours but it wasn't distracting. For the location and price these cabins are awesome.

Good and bad

Pros: Very comfortable beds Plenty of space Excellent location Cons: Loud floors! We were squeaking, the people above us and their dog were squeaking all night, it was a squeaky wooden orchestra. The shower has terribly low water pressure and the temperature was up and down as you shower. Nowhere to hang towels. An over the door hook rack would fix easily. The fridge was very loud. We would've been likely to stay again had we gotten any sleep, but we were exhausted the whole trip. But the people above us had a dog that paced all night so that skews our perspective some. The shower was not a good experience either though.

The property was actually even more appealing in person than it showed in pictures! There were so many cozy decorative touches. We were in Banner Elk to visit Lees McRae and it was fun to be able to look down at the college and hear the 'bells' ring. The grounds were also lovely. We were a convenient distance to the Wilderness Run Alpine Coaster as well as Grandfather Mountain. The host was amazingly responsive - even responding right away when we arrived at midnight and my GPS was trying to take me off the end of the road. My daughter loved Lees McRae so we may be repeat guests!
