Town home was very well located. Could walk to restaurants, shops and the park in downtown Banner Elk. Plenty of space and nicely appointed. Very comfortable furniture in living room and the bedrooms. Enjoyed the hot tub on the lower deck. Spent the mornings drinking coffee on the upper deck which has a great view of the mountains.

Will forever stay here when traveling to Banner Elk.

This was our second time staying at this property and it doesn't disappoint! My only suggestion to the property management company/owner is to update the Owner suite shower head but other than that everything is fantastic and would 100% stay again if i have the chance.

First class accommodations!

I have nothing but positive things to say about our trip and the accommodations. The townhouse has a really great high-end feel with large bedrooms, great living space, and nice amenities. You also can’t beat the location, we walked to all the restaurants and shops in town. I would highly recommend!

Snow weekend

Fantastic for my family of 4 (2 kids ages 7 and 10) and our dog. The only negatives are the street noise heard from master suite (just bring ear plugs). They have a fan in each room for white noise also. We had such a good time and were very comfortable in this home. I would definitelystay here again.

Great Place to stay

Very nice home with all basic needs covered! It was in a perfect location for access to downtown. The hot tub was great. Perhaps some instructions for removing the very heavy cover would be helpful. The home was clean and the extra touches of toiletries and expertly folded towels were nice. We didn't use the fireplaces but they looked nice. I would recommend this home.

Nice stay!

Overall this is a very nice unit. Great location to all the restaurants in Banner Elk. The beds were comfortable with good linens. Unfortunately we could not use the hot tub. The water was very murky and had debris in it. The showers really need to be recaulked and new shower curtains put in. The kitchen was very well stocked.

Walk to downtown Banner Elk

Our son attends Lees-McRae; this is THE BEST PLACE to stay! It's walking distance to downtown - shopping, pubs, restaurants - and campus. Well-appointed. Open space great for gathering. Well-managed. We lost power while there, and our contact was easy to reach and kept us informed until it was restored (very short outage due to wind.) STAY HERE! It's great!

Location

Perfect location between Sugar Mountain and Beech Mountain for a ski trip. Super walkable to everything in Banner Elk. Property was one of cleanest I’ve visited, and beds were super warm and comfortable. Even enjoyed the clean, warm hot tub. And, no long list of chores at checkout. Just take out the trash and turn on the dishwasher. Great property. Just be aware there is noise given the location is right in downtown banner elk.
