Great get-away for our family!

We enjoyed staying here for our ski trip to NC. Its location is perfect in downtown banner elk. It's so close that we could walk to dinner! It's also a great location for anyone wanting to ski both Beech and Sugar Mountain as we did. Our family of 5 was very comfortable here.

Great find and terrific location!

This is a well-appointed unit that was clean and suited our needs just right. Only a couple notes: parking is very much a challenge so bring the smallest vehicle you can get away with and the TV could be a little bigger. Otherwise, a really great place and nice stay.

Perfect Location in Banner Elk

My husband and I came to Banner Elk with friends for a trip to the mountains and wineries. This location was a perfect base as we were near Grandfather Mountain, Boone, NC State Parks and wineries! Main St. Banner Elk was a very short walk - loved walking to town for a stroll on the Greenway and ice cream. Condo was lovely - enough room for our group and kitchen had everything we needed to cook when we ate in on some nights. When we visit, we'll definitely stay here!

Liked: Check-in
Disliked: Location, listing accuracy
Stayed Aug 2025. We left after one night due to safety issues observed on arrival. The floors were buckled and uneven with a measured 4–5 slope, which made walking feel unstable; the bathroom door would not close and the bathtub dipped and squeaked when stepped in. The unit only provided a consumer aerosol “fire spray,” not a UL-rated fire extinguisher. The listing also describes the place as “walking distance to town” but the town is at the bottom of a steep hill and is not accessible for many older or mobility-limited guests. We reported these issues to VRBO during our stay. Future guests should confirm repairs and proper safety equipment before booking.
