If you’re short you may want to bring a stool! Bed was very tall for me and it was difficult to get into it. Only other thing was the tub/shower. I have balance issues and it was slippery when taking a shower. I had to be extra careful. A grab bar and non slip mat for the shower would be nice and easy to install. It would be horrible to slip and fall. The view is amazing and having access to elevators was very helpful for me!
We really enjoyed our visit. The unit was perfect for the two of us. Great location and loved the outdoor pool. We will be back!

Couldn't Have Been More Perfect!
What a wonderful place to spend our 15th Wedding Anniversary! We will definitely be using Echota again and will suggest it to all of our friends and family!
Very nice condo. Central to Blowing Rock, Boone and Banner Elk. Condo clean. Nice patio with view. Only issue was with grill. Only one burner worked.

Liked: Communication, location, listing accuracy
An excellent place to rest and have peace and quiet! Location is super useful for popular hikes. The view is stunning. I’ve chosen to stay on the balcony that had a panoramic view of Grandfather Mountain over adventuring out in the mornings. The unit itself had everything I needed. Highlight is the grill on the balcony. Arrival was a little stressful (the door code didn’t work and bathroom wasn’t cleaned properly), however management resolved all issues by noon the next morning. Communication was on point and they’ve fairly compensated for my troubles at arrival. The pool/gym amenities were a great addition to the stay. It was relaxing to head to the indoor pool after the days of hiking. Note: The main large outdoor pool with stunning views is owners only for use. You wouldn’t have access to those amenities. I forgot my camera bag at departure. They found it and have mailed it back to my address. Overall, I’d recommend staying here and would gladly go back.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the peaceful setting, stunning views of Grandfather Mountain, and all the amenities — especially the grill and pool after your hikes. We’re sorry again for the hiccups with check-in and cleaning, but we’re glad our team was able to get everything resolved quickly for you.
It’s wonderful to know you felt well taken care of and that your camera bag made it safely back home — we know how important that can be! We truly appreciate your kind words and recommendation, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime for another relaxing mountain getaway.
Enjoyed very much. Would stay again. Only thing I would recommend is a kurig coffee machine. Some models are very inexpensive.

Thank you so much for the wonderful feedback! We're thrilled you had a great stay and would love to welcome you back.
We really appreciate the suggestion about the Keurig. We'll definitely pass that along to our team—it's the kind of practical feedback that helps us improve the guest experience. Many visitors do mention enjoying having that convenience, so it's valuable input.
Thanks again for choosing us, and we hope to see you soon!
We had a relaxing stay at this lovely property with gorgeous mountain views. Condo was tastefully decorated, spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The built-in outdoor grill was a very appreciated amenity.

We loved this condo for a 6-day stay. Quiet and beautiful views, but convenient to Boone, Blowing Rock, and Banner Elk. Super cozy and comfortable place to call home for a week!

We loved our place. The views were beautiful and we were able to snowboard at Beech then explore Banner Elk, Boone, and Blowing Rock. It was right in the middle of everything! Would come back for sure.
Thank you for the review and for staying at Chalakee Lodge CA-1! We are so glad that you had a great experience and enjoyed the condo. Please do come again!

Great view and loved the grill and kitchen he everythibg we needed.
The only negatives is that the folks above us were loud and you could hear a lot of thuds, etc. also, outdoor steps are slick when wet and I would recommend adding some type of tread for safety reasons.
