5 bedroom, 3 bath cabin/lodge with a full basement and walk out patio below.

The master suite and the two larger bedrooms, kitchen, dining, great room, and deck are located on the main level of the house.

We have 2 smaller bedrooms, 1 bath and 1 loft with a day bed and pull out trundle upstairs.

Downstairs in the
basement, we have a 1200 SQ ft gameroom, with a 65" tv and sitting area, ping pong area, pool table area, and laundry area. We have a queen pull out sofa available in the gameroom.

From the gameroom, you can access the patio and hot tub with a view of the grounds below.

Our lot is approx. 7.5 acres, mostly wooded. We have a small creek and spring-fed pond (not for swimming) on the grounds.

There is not another house in sight from our deck. It's wonderful! :)

We have parking available in the front of the house for 2-3 cars, which is a flat gravel area. There is additional parking available in a driveway to the right of the house; however that driveway is a bit steep.

Very peaceful and quiet.

Communication was GREAT! Hosts answered my questions quickly and briefly. The house was exactly like in the listing. Plenty of dining and sleeping accommodations for the 10 adults and 2 kids. Both living rooms had baskets of blankets that were more than plenty for us. I really liked that! Now for the negative stuff, not bad bad, but i feel should've told the hosts about it. 1- the first night, there were a few ants by the kitchen sink but none during the rest of the stay. 2- the covered hot tub was a tiny bit dirty, but its to be expected since there are trees everywhere. Not a big deal, but something to point out that it would be nice if the hot tub was cleaned of debris right before a customer's stay. 3- It would have been nice if all the big windows had curtains to cover up the living space during night time. This is me being honest about the place but all in all, my family and I had a VERY pleasant stay. Maybe we'll book this house again next year??

Amazing Stay!

What an amazing place for families! We had 3 families with kids ranging from 13-24 and everyone loved the house. The game room was so fun and the deck was so great for socializing and relaxing. We made meals and the kitchen was very easy to use. So close to so many attractions we will be back for sure!!

Beautiful, quiet house in the mountains

Plenty of space to bring a large group and well maintained. Big dining room and plenty of countertop space in the kitchen. The back porch/balcony looks out over a hollow on the side of the mountain with lots of big, beautiful trees, birds and a few deer around. Food and local attractions are all within a short drive. Great place to go for some piece and quiet.

Huge Vacation Home for Us

We absolutely loved this place. There was nothing lacking in comfort, cleanliness and recreation. My 85 year old mother was with us and she was even happy. :) There was room enough here for the five kids and 7 adults to get away from one another and have their on space. So much fun. TVs in all the rooms, so no arguing by anyone. This was the best family vacation we've had in years! Wish there was a store in walking distance. Can't wait to go back.

Such a fun place to stay!

We had to cut our trip short because of a winter storm, but this mountain home was absolutely perfect for our two families. The kids loved the hot tub and ping pong table and all the extra space to stretch out and play or relax. Definitely worth every penny!

Quick Trip to the Mtns

We had a wonderful stay and would definitely visit again. The parking/road where the home is situated would be the only thing I would take note of; we had 2 vehicles but anything more than that could be an issue with parking.

Perfect Ski Weekend House!

Our group takes a ski trip every year, and I can say this is by far the best house we've ever rented! Everything was accurately described and the hosts were great and responsive. The kitchen was very well equipped which is always a plus. The views are beautiful and calming. It was truly a perfect place to come back and relax in the hot tub or play a game of pool after long ski days. Highly recommend!

I stayed at this property with a group of friends for a board game weekend. The kitchen and kitchen table had plenty of space for making meals and eating. We were happy with the opportunity to use the game room downstairs to play ping pong. The hot tub worked fine, and all the beds were comfortable.

Best place and host ever!

Loved every bit of our stay at this fantastic spot with my wife, her sister, our parents and spouses...was fantastic! I absolutely loved walking down to the pond multiple times a day - once in the morning and once in the evening... Observing deer, squirrels, birds, butterflies, bees, and chipmunks out of the pond, and Eastern Newts, crawfish and more in the pond! The beds were also comfortable, as were the rooms. The Kitchen had everything we needed to fix meals and more. We played lots of boardgames together in the dining room as well! Loved everything and the host was quite informative and helpful.

Mountain Stay

This year, we decided on this lovely cabin to celebrate Christmas with family and also attend Christmas at Tweetsie. We loved our stay in this spacious mountain home. The cabin included lots of entertainment, and even had some toys for the smaller kids. The kitchen was also well stocked. A great amenity was the hot tub that offered a serene view of the mountains and a great relaxation spot. If you’re looking for a cozy place away from the hustle of town, this is the place for you!

The house was all we expected and more. Great playroom. Large and very well equipped. Large kitchen and dining room that fit 11 people comfortably. Had 4 teenagers and 3 kids that had a great time in the playroom considering we had 2 rainy days. The owners responded quickly and were really nice.

Lovely mountain home

This house was perfect for our family get-together. We came to NC from three different states to spend a few days together. Six adults, four teenagers, two kids - the three floors were perfect for spreading out with different activities. Brooke was very responsive to our inquiries. Highly recommend!

Tweetsie

It was perfect for us! Purpose for our stay was to spend the day with our 7 year old granddaughter at tweetsie railroad. When our family found out we were going they all wanted to come join us in the fun. The location of this house was great for us. Easy to find places to eat in banner elk and also blowing rock. Loved the game room downstairs also.

Labor Day Getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this cabin in Banner Elk. We chose the cabin over other possibilities because the pictures made it seem roomy and we wanted space to spread out. The pictures did not lie. The main level had lots of room for us to hang out and tons of seating for dining so we could all sit together. We really appreciated all the amenities downstairs in the recreation area. The pool table in particular got a lot of use and it was so nice to have a play area and a table and chairs for the kids down there as well. We spent a lot of time out on the wraparound porch also. The hot tub was great and we made s'mores one night at the fire pit. The beds were comfy, the bathrooms spacious and the kitchen had everything we needed to make all our meals in. Definitely a five star stay.

We had a lovely stay. We were there to ski Sugar and Beech and the house was right in the middle location wise to get to both. The house was perfect for our group- adults and kids. Kids loved the space downstairs while the adults enjoyed the quiet upstairs. Kitchen was well stocked with everything needed for big family dinners. Very family friendly. Would definitely look at returning! Thanks!!

The house was amazing! Roku TVs in every room made streaming easy. Huge kitchen and family table used for meals and card games. Incredible game room with a nice pool table (strait cues), ping pong table and mini air hockey along with a sitting area and toys for the kids. The decks were amazing, it was quiet and off the road which made a safe and fun environment. The owners were easy to get a hold of and very helpful.
