About this property

Stylish & Bright Downtown Gem - Breathtaking Views!

You'll love this location- tucked away in the trees, yet only steps from the best Banner Elk has to offer. The views are stunning from this 2 bedroom, open-floor plan upstairs unit that overlooks quaint downtown Banner Elk below and the beautiful Blue Ridge mountains beyond. We hope that the brand new full kitchen (no dishwasher), laundry room and en suite baths will be everything you're looking for, and more.

A five minute walk down the mountain and you'll be in the middle of the Main Street shopping and dining district. Three minutes more and you've arrived at Tate Evans Park the perfect spot for a stroll to the stream, playtime in the field or on the playground or to attend one of the many outdoor concerts. It is perfectly situated between Beech and Sugar mountains and only 30 minutes to Boone.

Such a great place!

We had the best time and absolutely loved this precious house. It’s right in the middle of banner elk and so close to multiple restaurants, also right in between beech mountain and sugar mountain. Kyle and Ashley were so helpful with recommendations and always responded so quickly. We for sure want to come back! Couldn’t have asked for a better host!

Best view

One of our favorite vacation rentals ever -- stunning views from the wraparound deck, comfortable seating and beds, very clean, and all amenities included. The doe and twin fawns hanging out by the parking area were an added bonus. Our hosts were very responsive, we highly recommend this home.

Banner Elk condo

Very well maintained, perfectly clean, 2 bedroom spot in a great location in Banner Elk. Might get a little tight if you spend more than a few days there, but perfect for 2 couples or a small family for a long weekend. Loved all the windows and the lovely view. Beds were comfortable. Nice modern design. Good spot for a reasonable price.

Lovely stay at The Blue Elk

5 stars, hands down! This rental is a gem, with its perfect location and a clean airy atmosphere It was perfect for our family of 3. The Blue Elk would also be perfect for two couples traveling together as well, as it has 2 master bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms. The owners were great, and so responsive. We loved The Blue Elk for its location. We were able to visit town within a minute drive and get to Sugar and Beech mountain in 10 minutes or less as it’s right in the middle of both.The house itself is perfectly decorated, clean and functional with all kitchen/bathroom needs available. We can’t wait to visit again!
