Tucked in the heart of charming Banner Elk, NC, this spacious mountain lodge offers the perfect getaway for groups and families. With 6 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, and space to sleep up to 14 guests, Banner Elk Lodge is just a short walk from downtown's shops, restaurants, and local events and only a quick drive to the slopes of Sugar Mountain and Beech Mountain.
Whether you're gathering around the fireplace, relaxing in the hot tub, or battling it out in the game room, this home is designed for comfort, connection, and adventure.
Spacious Comfort for Everyone! Step inside to a warm and inviting main level featuring:
- A cozy living room with a wood-burning fireplace, large TV, and comfy seating
- An updated kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a Keurig to kickstart your mornings
- A long family-style dining table perfect for shared meals and memories
Main Level Bedrooms:
- Primary King Bedroom with TV and private access to a full bath (tub/shower combo)
- Second King Bedroom and a Queen Bedroom that share another full bathroom
Two Game Rooms + Two Fireplaces = Double the Fun
Upstairs in the loft, enjoy a game of shuffleboard or just kick back and relax. Head down to the lower level for:
- A second wood-burning fireplace
- Pool table
- A second full kitchen with granite counters and seating
- A wall full of board games and cozy spots to hang out
Lower Level Bedrooms:
- A King bedroom with TV
- A Full-over-Full Bunk Room
- A Twin-over-Twin Bunk Room (with two sets to sleep a total of 4)
- Two additional full bathrooms for convenience
Outdoor Living, Mountain Style
Step outside and take your pick:
- Sip coffee or wine on the front deck with mountain air all around
- Fire up the gas grill on the back deck just off the kitchen
- Soak under the stars in your private hot tub on the covered lower patio
With ample parking (a rare find!), there's room for everyone to arrive comfortably and start relaxing right away.
Walk to Everything Downtown Banner Elk Has to Offer!
Just steps from the lodge, you'll find yourself in the heart of Banner Elk's cozy downtown. Stroll the scenic Banner Elk Mile loop, explore local shops like BJ's Resort Wear, Banner Elk Trading Co., and My Best Friend's Barkery, or treat yourself at the nostalgic Candy Kitchen. Enjoy a craft beer at Banner Elk Brewhaus, catch a live performance at Ensemble Stage, or take in the local culture at the Historic Banner Elk School and its arts center. Relax at Tate‑Evans Park, where you'll find playgrounds, walking trails, and peaceful picnic spots along the creek. And there's no better home base for the annual Wooly Worm Festival!
Whether you're shopping, sipping, strolling, skiing, or just soaking up small-town charm, you're only a few minutes away from it all at Banner Elk Lodge. Book your stay today and experience the best of the Blue Ridge in style!
