About the host

Hosted by Steven & Sue

Host profile image
Hi, I’m Sue, the host behind Elevated Stays, a curated collection of mountain homes in two of the most beautiful regions in the country — Bryson City, North Carolina and Driggs, Idaho.

What started as a log cabin in NC has grown into a multi‑state portfolio of creekfront homes, mountain‑view cabins, downtown lofts, and modern alpine townhomes. I believe great stays are built on thoughtful details — cozy porches, comfortable beds, stocked kitchens, and spaces designed for gathering. Whether you’re here for adventure, relaxation, or a little of both, I’m honored to share these special corners of the Smokies and Tetons with you.

Great travel is about connection — to nature, to adventure, and to the people you’re with. Whether you’re exploring the Great Smoky Mountains, skiing at Grand Targhee or Jackson Hole, riding the Great Smoky Mountains Railroad, or watching the Tetons glow at sunset, I’m honored to provide a home that elevates your experience.

Wherever the mountains call you, I’m here to welcome you home.

There’s an inviting energy here, with friendly neighbors, live music drifting from the brewery, and sidewalks that lead you to unique shops, restaurants, and coffee spots. What we love most about this area is the blend of vibrant, small-town life with serene mountain views all around. It’s a place where you can soak in nature’s beauty, yet have everything you need within walking distance.

What makes this property unique

You’re literally steps from the Great Smoky Mountains Railroad depot, local breweries, coffee shops, and boutiques. Guests can enjoy the full downtown experience without ever needing a car.
