Perfect Stay and Perfect Location
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

Quaint and cozy
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!

Perfect stay in the NC mountains!
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!
