Lovely and accommodating host and great location in Banner Elk, central to the highland activities and not far from a grocery store. We really enjoyed staying here for a weekend getaway with our toddler and small dogs.
The overall experience has been absolutely amazing! Ms. Becky was very responsive and accommodating. The property is very quite and cozy. The location is very convenient: 2 min drive to the nearest grocery store, ski rental place and sugar mountain ski resort. Downtown is only 7 mins away with some great restaurants. My dog loved the snow and the town is very dog friendly. Loved it, definitely will be back!
Perfectly located 5 min from Sugar Mountain, and not so remote off the beaten path. Perfect for those traveling with pets, with plenty of necessity amenities not too far away. Would love to stay again.

Thank you so much for staying Robert, would be a pleasure to have you back!
From the time we walked in we knew our stay was going to be great. This rental is in the perfect location to enjoy Sugar Mountain, Banner Elk, and Beech Mountain which is where we spent most of our time for a summer concert. The rental was very clean and inviting. The kitchen setup is very nice. The balcony outside is perfect for your morning coffee. The bed was one of the most comfortable we have ever slept on in a VRBO. The bathroom was also spotless and of good size. We definitely recommend this rental and will stay again
I’m a full time traveling musician, and it’s usually tough to find decent places that are pet friendly and affordable. This place was above and beyond all expectations! Perfect little place in the NC mountains with everything we need, and want! Great to have the balance of a cabin feel, with a nice bathroom and full kitchen, and close enough to civilization. Will definitely stay again!
THE BALCONY LOOKED HORRIBE; NO BROOM IN SIGHT TO SWEEP COBWEBS OFF; THE VEIW? IT WAS A FRONT BALCONY; PLACE IS RIGHT BY THE HIGHWAY; WE SAW CARS, LOTS OF CARS AND ANOTHER VACATION RENTAL; NO VEIW/ BED WAS SO SMALL AND SOFT; HORRIBLE/ NO PLACE AT ALL TO WALK A PET; WE LEFT A DAY EARLY. THIS PLACE WAS A JOKE

Curtis, we had communications during your stay and no concerns were raised, I am so sorry that you had negative feedback about your stay, I would have loved the opportunity to assist you and provide solutions during your stay.
The locations is extremely convenient for access to the mountains and towns, considering it’s close proximity and convenience factor, it will receive more cars driving by than a property secluded in the mountains, while the view still directly looks at sugar mountain slopes.
The property does have all standard queen beds, as advertised.
I wish I could have had the opportunity to know of your concerns during the stay, but I thank you for taking the time to share your opinion of the experience.
This condo is quaint and cozy and tucked right on the edge of Banner Elk and Foscoe. It’s about a 14 min drive to King Street in Boone and was the perfect spot to get away from the football crowd post game day fun and have some peace and quiet with my son, husband and two pups. The property was very clean, nicely decorated and the porch was a perfect place to unwind after putting my 1 year old to bed. We really enjoyed our stay and definitely recommend this property!

Stephanie, it was a pleasure to host you and your family! So happy you had a great stay and hope to have you all back again! :)
I submitted another feedback before i saw this one in my email. Their is a ticket submitted and I would appreciate some form of compensation. No heat, no coffee, couldn't cook…

Becky’s place was exactly what we needed, SO CLOSE TO THE SLOPES, and she was very responsive and great with any questions we had. Definitely recommend a stay here especially if you’re trying to go ski/snowboard Sugar Mountain. There were also a lot of good restaurants and convenient stores, etc nearby
Currently located in Florida! I am an animal lover with 2 English Bulldogs, and one French Bulldog.
I love sharing my condo and hearing about the fun trips my guests are preparing to take! It is so great to share the joy of Woodland Cottage and everything the beautiful North Carolina has to offer.
Why they chose this property
Ski County is my favorite for the central location. With where the community is, you are not on the top of Beech or Sugar Mountain so travel is much shorter and provides a great central location for wineries, restaurants, stores, etc. The condo is also located right at the front of the community so there is less of a risk for issues accessing with the snow.
What makes this property unique
Woodland Cottage is unique for the slope view of Sugar Mountain, most condos in the community do not have access to this view! You can see the slopes from the relaxation of the front balcony. You also have access to a separate work space, that doubles as a makeup area in the morning. Oh, and best yet - It is dog friendly!
