About this property

Switchback Lodge • Pool Table, Dart Board

Welcome to Switchback Lodge, a spacious mountain retreat located just 0.7 miles from Sugar Mountain Ski Resort and about 9 minutes from downtown Banner Elk. Tucked along one of Sugar Mountain’s scenic switchbacks, this inviting lodge-style home offers the perfect setting for ski trips, family vacations, and relaxing mountain getaways.

With four bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and two half bathrooms, Switchback Lodge comfortably sleeps up to 10 guests and features multiple spaces to gather and unwind. The main level living room is warm and welcoming with a cozy gas fireplace, while the large kitchen and dining area provide plenty of space for preparing meals and spending time together. Just off the kitchen, a covered deck offers a great outdoor hangout space with a grill, heater, and fire pit, so it can be enjoyed even on cooler evenings or during light snow or rain.
