Quiet and serene yet conveniently close to the area's most beloved attractions, this comfortable mountain cottage is a place to experience the best of Banner Elk. In the winter, you'll be ideally located for sledding, tubing, and skiing at Sugar Mountain and Beech Mountain; come summer, you'll enjoy world-class hiking and mountain biking, great breweries and wineries, as well as nearby festivals and concerts.
Cook up a big meal in the fully-equipped kitchen, or grill on the deck for dining al fresco. Relax after a day of fun on the covered patio or the spacious deck. You will love this home with a cozy fireplace, and a gorgeous sitting room with stone walls.
There are so many area attractions you will never run out of fun things to do. From anywhere to half a mile to four miles drive you can visit any of the local wineries and breweries, go hiking, sledding, skiing, and tubing, horseback riding, or explore the gem mines, museums, and don't forget all the great restaurants and local shops.
