About this property

60 Acre Mtn Top retreat 5 Miles from Downtown Banner Elk

5 Bedroom, 4 bath cabin with loft only 5 miles from downtown Banner Elk. All 5 bedrooms have mountain views and smart TVs. Pull up a chair on the upper level deck or lounge around the firepit off the lower level patio and enjoy the beautiful sunset over the distant mountain range!
Walk from the 15 car parking area directly in to the cabin with no steps to climb. Two queen bedrooms on the left have easy access to the large ADA accessible bathroom on the right. The loft above is set up for kids with a play area, a Playstation and 2 foldout beds. Cross through the great room with huge stone woodburning fireplace and 60” 4K TV to a King master with 6 ft Jacuzzi tub and separate shower. Descend the stairway to the lower level through a large gameroom with 8 ft pool table, kitchenette, and movie watching area with covered patio and mountain views. A King master on the right has the 2nd 6 ft Jacuzzi tub in this house. A large bedroom on the left with King bed and bunkbed is great for kids or the hallway door can be locked, making it a 3rd king master suite. Outfitted for cooking holiday meals. Between the kitchen on the upper level and the kitchenette on the lower level there are 3 ovens, 2 refrigerators, and 2 dishwashers. There is a wood table in the main kitchen that seats 6 when expanded and 3 folding tables that seat 4 each. For large gatherings we have the pool table fitted with a topper and vinyl cover so it can be used as a banquet table.
Near 2 major ski mountains; Beech and Sugar. Close to Grandfather Mountain. Enjoy hiking along the top of your private mountain or head to the bottom of the mountain and fish for trout along your own 1,900 feet of the Elk River. Serene and private, yet just a few miles to great restaurants and activities in Banner Elk.

Relaxing weekend getaway

The house and property were beautiful with plenty of space for our entire family to get together and celebrate two milestone birthdays. We would have been happy just hanging out on the deck soaking in the amazing mountain views but there was also plenty to do nearby. The owners were very helpful in providing information about the area, and very responsive when we needed something during our stay. We would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful Mountain Top Cabin

Staying at this mountain cabin was a pleasure. A lot of room for all the family to get together. Very close to Beech Mtn., but a feeling of seclusion as well. Thanks for sharing.

Great, secluded stay

We loved our time at the secluded mountaintop cabin. It had everything you need for. Large family gathering or a couple families. Easy to find and great long range views. The river access is just down the driveway for a good hike or drive. We’ll be back for sure!

Home away from Home

Beautiful home on mountain top with A+ accommodations and even a Christmas tree. We even canceled dinner reservations one night because we preferred to just stay and cook in. Close to ski and tubing. Saw a lot of deer.

A little slice of heaven in the mountains

My family absolutely loved staying at this little piece of heaven tucked away in NC high country. The home design and decor is beautiful and the view from the porch is incredible. Our family was looking for a quiet getaway and could not be more pleased with our stay. This property had every amenity we could need and was a short drive from Grandfather, Sugar, & Beech mountain attractions. Our little ones were so amazed by this cabin home on top a mountain!

Very good cabin

This was a great cabin. Very clean and well done inside and out. The gravel road to the property is a bit tricky but the cabin itself is worth the trip. The hike down to the stream would have to be for the avid hiker. We chose to park and walk down to it. Overall this was a very good experience.

This house was absolutely perfect for my wife’s birthday celebration. We had 3 couples and two kids and the house was absolutely perfect. We utilized the fireplace every single day and had a fun game night downstairs. We are already planning to book for next year.

Beautiful views, plenty of space

This gorgeous cabin had beautiful tree top views. It was very spacious with 4 couples/8 adults and clean. The sitting areas were all very comfortable. We couldn’t have asked for a better view or space to stay for the weekend except for the beds. They were very firm & didn’t allow for a comfortable sleep.

family ski trip

I love this location, views in all directions. It really fits our large family. Space for family games the kitchen is well-stocked with all you need to cook family breakfasts and dinners. The only drawback is they need to add family dinner table. There is ample outdoor areas for everyone to sled, build snowmen have hotdogs and smores on the open pit fire. This makes our 3rd year and will be returning.

About the host

Hosted by Nick

Host profile image
We've owned land on this mountain for 25 years, but finally built our dream home in 2017. We spent years designing the cabin so that every bedroom and both living areas view the spectacular mountain vistas. No matter what fun things we may be doing on the property, we make it a point to meet together on the deck in time for the sunset over the mountains.

What makes this property unique

Get away from it all, but don't have to drive far from town to do it.
