Pigeon Nest is a 5 beds /4 baths family vacation mountain home sits top of a hill overlooking Blue Ridge Mountains. Less than 5 miles from downtown Banner Elk and minutes away from restaurants, local shops, grocery stores and gas stations. The house is just far enough away from town to have great views but close enough to be there in minutes. Near to local attractions - Banner Elk Winery and Villa , and Apple Hill Alpaca Farm and Tours. Less than 20 minutes away is Sugar Mountain Resort, a favorite winter spot for skiing, snowboarding, snow tubing, and ice skating in the winter, and hiking and mountain biking in the summer. There is an adventure for everyone!

Guests at Pigeon Nest have access to hiking, camping, off-road trails and exploring the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains. Expansive, layered views of the mountains, best enjoyed from the wrap-around covered porch or from the view points. There is also a fire pit for a family marshmallow roast, and a hot tub on the lower patio.

The main living area in this home is open and light, with many windows looking out into the mountain landscape. A gas fire place and large, flat-screen TV center the living room, with lots of comfy seating for all. The kitchen has been updated with granite counter tops, and looks out into the living and dining area. There is dining for 8 at the main table, and 3 additional dining spots the bar. The Master Bedroom is on this level, with a King bed and en suite full bathroom with dual vanities and combo tub and shower. There is also a Queen bedroom with en suite full bathroom.

The gravel road leading up to the home has a gradual incline, and there is one switch-back curve- 4WD is necessary in the winter months when it's snow and ice, warmer months 2WD is just fine. Many recent upgrades added to home includes a tank-less water heater to accommodate large groups hot water needs.

Clean but Disappointing Stay
Pros: House was very clean, View from the house was beautiful, Kitchen well stockedCons: Hot Tub was broke then entire 5 days we were there after being promised it was going to be fixed, New dryer that was not working until the 4th day we were there, 2 of the showers would not drain properly and would back up while using, Road to the house was initially iced over with a huge mud pit at the top you have to drive through which made getting in and out of the house scary at times.Overall we were happy to visit Banner Elk and look to do it again next year; however, we will be renting a different house to stay in.

Nice place
13 in our group ranging from 5-74 in age. We loved the area, lots to do for all ages. The layout of the house suited our needs well. The house, including hot tub seemed clean. The room with pool table no longer had a TV in it as appeared in pictures and there was only one stick with good cue, but we were fine with that. Half way through our stay

Great stay for several people.
Love this house for our group of nine LMC Senior Alumni. Have stayed here 3 times. Only thing we found out of order was the entry door at carport would not lock when we left. The nice cleaning lady said it probably needed a new battery and l feel sure that will be taken care of. Only suggestion for improvement is maybe replace the mattress in bedroom in basement BR directly across from stairs. The mattress rolls you to the center. Our group loved the unit and the location fairly close to LMC in Banner Elk. Unit very clean.

Great for all ages
We were visiting for the weekend to attend my son’s graduation. The house was great because we had grandparents with us and there was plenty of room. The bed I slept in was very comfortable and so was the furniture inside and outside. The kitchen had everything we needed for the meals we had at the house. It is nice because there are two bedrooms with bathrooms on the main level. We had a couple 80+ year olds with us and besides the one step up into the house, it was very easy for them on the main level.

This was a real vacation
A group of us friends and our kids had the most wonderful time. The views are absolutely breath taking & the air was so crisp, it really was a perfect combination of everything to make the experience that much better. The house was clean, welcoming and very spacious for our group stay. We even found the little closet downstairs with all the toys and books, that was a huge hit!! Everyone said their beds were comfortable and slept good. The furniture is even really comfortable, Inside and outside. We were very impressed with the amount of kitchen supplies, lots of pots, pans, plates, cups... it made it easier to cook for our big group. This was such a relaxing place to be and I can promise you, we'll be returning SOON! thanks for hosting us

Beautiful Mountain Retreat
We enjoyed out time away in the mountains in this wonderful house...the beautiful view from the covered porch, the hot tub and pool table, the open living/dining room, and plenty of space to spread out. We were there with our kids and our parents, but it is also set up well for a couples retreat.

Great House
This property was great for our group of 9 senior citizens . We all had had our privacy yet enjoyed the fellowship in areas this house provided. Was clean and well kept. Loved the spectacular view and it was convenient to LMC in Banner Elk where we were attending Homecoming events. Will try to rent it again.

Wonderful Stay At Pigeon Roost
My family stayed at Pigeon Roost to celebrate my dad's 90th birthday. It was a beautiful, spacious house with amazing views. Definitely one of the cleanest places I've ever stayed in. The beds were all comfortable and we had plenty of room. Candice, our property coordinator was helpful and accommodating. I highly recommend Pigeon Roost Cabins!

Great vacation home for large family
We had a wonderful family reunion at Pigeon Nest. The property had amazing views, was roomy, had all the amenities one would expect from a VRBO, etc. The front screen door slams and is dangerous for kids -- but everything else was great!

Graduation from Appalachian State.
The house was perfect. Quiet, comfortable beds, actually slept all night. We will definately plan on coming again in 2 years after our grandson gets his Masters degree, if not before. Would love to come in the fall. The turkey and fox we seen were added bonuses. Thank you for sharing your home with us.
