Property was well stocked with household items and conveniences for a long weekend stay. Clean and nicely decorated rooms. Great location where we could use the house as a home base to hikes in blue ridge parkway, Boone, Blowing Rock and Banner Elk.

Thank you for your kind review, we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us at Echota Wintergreens 1631 and were able to take advantage of the onsite amenities. Please visit with us again if you are back in the High Country!
Condo was absolutely amazing! Location was fantastic and easy to get to. So close to Banner Elk and Boone and everything we wanted to see and do! Clean, cute, and had everything we could've needed! Would highly recommend! And will definitely stay again!
The place was good. Very clean and comfortable.
However, basic aminities like salt, sugar, coffee were not available. The dishes, glasses and bowls were dirty. We had to wash everything before using.
I may not visit again. There are lot of other options with better service and way cheaper.
Everything you need and close to Boone and Banner Elk
Very clean, kitchen was well stocked with cooking items such as bowls, pots, pans and a coffee maker. Great view off the deck. Quiet location but there are people around so we’ll insulated from any noise. Pool was a short drive. Cozy with the fireplace and easy to keep warm.
The place was fantastic, just as it pictured. Very clean. Easy to get to Boon and Sugar Mountain. We throughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend it.
We stayed here for a football game weekend. It is an absolutely gorgeous property, in great condition, clean and well kept, with great views. We will definitely be back!
The listing info is quite accurate and pictures give a good indication of the property's attributes. Had a 2nd couple as guests for 3 of our 9 days and there was never any sense of overcrowding. Clean and comfortable. The stairs could be problematic for anyone with mobility issues.
