Beautiful home with everything you want and need for your mountain vacation experience.

Headwaters Hideaway was a beautiful home that was very clean, had everything we needed for our mountain adventure, and to top it off, had a beautiful view of the mountains. There was a problem with the upstairs bathroom when we arrived, but when we called the property manager, they sent someone to solve the issue that night. The kids loved the foosball table and games upstairs, and the clubhouse on the property was amazing! Our family would definitely stay at Headwaters Hideaway again!

Lovely Place

The house and surroundings are beautiful. I would make a strong suggestion to have a snow shovel or 2 available at the property! We received over 10 inches of snow over Christmas and not a snow shovel to be found! We had no issues (AWD) vehicle getting out, even though the driveway was not plowed and very steep. The roads inside the community and secondary roads leading to Banner Elk were plowed well. Please add a snow shovel! Also adding a blower to the gas fireplace would make it more “functional” for heating. Otherwise perfect place, stay, check-in process, etc.

Great house, beautiful location

We loved this house! Gorgeous wood interior, awesome fireplace, and very cozy. The snow also made my birthday wonderful. Make sure you bring any food you would need...even salt!! Directions need some improvement and make sure you map it out - the street named in GPS map I used didn’t match the names of the streets. Possibly because the street name changed. Overall a wonderful stay. We’d come back here again.
