Private mountain home with amazing views, firepit & hot tub - near ski slopes

Tranquility House

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Tranquility is yours at this gorgeous, private mountain home located midway between the ski slopes of Sugar and Beech Mountains. Nestled into a 43-acre farm, you'll love the pastoral charm and incredible mountain views, with picturesque barns and a pond in the foreground. Enjoy it each day on 20 acres of walking trails, including five acres of rhododendron thicket. The wooded hills above take you to the top of the northern edge of Beech Mountain. In the winter, you'll be ideally located for sledding, tubing, and skiing at Sugar Mountain and Beech Mountain; come summer, you'll enjoy world-class hiking and mountain biking, great breweries and wineries, as well as nearby festivals and concerts

Inside, you'll find incredible mountain views from every room, hardwood floors, and abundant natural light as it pours in the large picture windows. Snuggle up together in front of the gas fireplace in the living room while you stream the latest release and whip up your favorite meals in the full, well-equipped kitchen. Challenge your friends and family to a game of chess; read a book from the small library provided; and keep dinner simple with the gas grill and an alfresco meal on the deck. End the evening with a toast around the fire pit to booking the perfect Banner Elk getaway.

Wonderful Weekend!

My wife and I stayed for a weekend and had a great time. The house is perfect for a couple or small family. We were able to enjoy a quiet night in the hot tub but we were also very close to Banner Elk for entertainment and multiple ski slopes. We would love to return!

Sweet little house

We took a quick trip for less than 48 hours to Grandfather mountain for a parent weekend getaway. Tranquility was the perfect home away from home. It was very clean, photos were accurate of the property. We enjoyed the hot tub and seeing different wildlife right in the backyard. Would recommend.

Very nice small family getaway

It was a very beautiful house with a beautiful view. We had a blast and stayed nice and warm by the fire. Never went into the loft area but it looked really nice. Definitely planning to stay again.

We loved the comfort and Mountain views. The mountain air is so refreshing.

Loved being able to celebrate our 60th wedding anniversary trip in this beautiful cabin and scenery. Very peaceful and relaxing. Walking around the pond was enjoyable. Yes even at our age.

Great Getaway

We enjoyed the cottage--indoors and outdoors! The outdoor areas are great and the view is incredible. The cottage is well stocked and neat. Banner Elk and the surrounding areas are worth a visit, but the best part of the trip was Tranquility Cottage. Mark

Perfect for Cozy Couples’ Getaway

Cabin was well appointed, exactly as described and pictured, and our booking experience was smooth from start to finish! We very much enjoyed our stay and look forward to possibly returning. Highly recommend this cottage for couples looking for a cozy mountain getaway. Located conveniently between Banner Elk and Valle Crucis, we got to major area attractions, restaurants, and shopping easily while still feeling secluded and enjoying lovely views. Thank you for making our stay so wonderful and memorable!
