Super cute and comfy little spot, incredibly convenient location! The host was great! The weather was super cold and snowing when we stayed, the condo stayed warm and cozy throughout our stay. Beautiful view and back porch. It’s truly a hidden gem and I almost don’t want to share how great of a place it is because it’s one of my favorite spots, we will absolutely be staying here again in the future!

Nicely decorated, comfortable place with easy access to Grandfather Mountain. We enjoyed our visit and plan on returning! Everything was well stocked and perfect for our weekend trip.

Perfect little cottage
This cottage is every bit as cute and cozy as the pictures. It was clean and had everything you need for a great stay. The bed was comfortable and the location made it easy to get everywhere! Looking forward to stay here again!!
We enjoyed our stay. A few things to know:There are stairs up to the condo and it’s a two story condo so if steps aren’t your thing this take note. It’s in a great location just outside of downtown Banner Elk. The AC units are free standing so just know it’s not central air. Overall a good visit and would stay again.

Very clean and neat and easy to get to. Bed slept very good and was neat and tidy. I would recommend anyone to stay there that wants to have a weekend in Banner elk and boone area.
Cons
Very small
Outside of building could use some maintenance
Pros
Very clean
Well equipped - really thought of pretty much everything - FYI - 5 cup coffee maker- no keurig-does have bean grinder
Great communication with host Katrina
Awesome location
I would give this rental ten stars if I could. Cleanest place I have ever stayed in my life. We didn't need to bring a thing with us. Communication was great. Location was central to everything we wanted to see. Will definitely stay here when we come back to Grandfather Mountain.
We were in town for parents weekend at App State and wanted something different. This turned out to be the perfect spot. It was close enough that we could run down for activities, but far enough away that we didn’t have the crowds and noise that is usually associated with game day. Every thing worked perfectly and we had a great weekend, looking forward to staying here again!

Great home base for skiing at Sugar
We enjoyed our stay very much. The cabin looks exactly as pictured. It was a convenient location between the ski resort and restaurants/business (all less than 5 minutes from the unit). Plenty of space for two adults and our young daughter, and well stocked with dishes/cookware, blankets, etc. The unit manager was very communicative and responsive. she also provided us with many useful recommendations for things to do in the area. Would definitely return.

We loved the condo, it looks exactly like the pictures only better. Katrina is an amazing host. She texted us to make sure we were able to check in & gave us a few tips for nearby grocery & restaurants. The condo had lovely decor & lots of personal touches. Anything you might need and more. My boyfriend & I were there for a concert series at Beech Mountain Resort and some hiking at Grandfather Mountain State Park. It was an amazing weekend, would definitely come back, and stay at Katrina’s condo. Thank you for a great stay!

Property was well equipped with most everything you needed but one minus was the only air conditioner was a small window unit in upstairs bedroom nothing else for downstairs area so for July and August weather could be uncomfortable
We visited this area for a tour of The Land of Oz on Beech Mountain. The owners assisted us with our luggage at both check-in and check-out -- very friendly. The unit was very clean and well furnished and decorated. Throughout the condo, everything felt "tight". The kitchen counter space was very minimal, however, all appliances were very new. Downstairs had the kitchen, small dining area, TV, couch and recliner. Note that the only bathroom is upstairs. The bedroom is also upstairs - queen bed, chest of drawers (tv on top), and a very small closet. Wi-fi connection was speedy and easy to connect. We presumed that there would be satellite or cable TV - however, only streaming services were available. We learned about ROKU. There is a Food Lion about 2 miles to the south. Make sure you try Bella's Itilian across the parking lot from Food Lion. Don't bring a lot of luggage with you, but the unit is clean, modern, and comfortable.

We rented Katrina’s place for our 9 year anniversary and it was perfect. Not only was it spotlessly clean but she provided all the things we needed and more. Any small items you normally need to run to the store for were available. She even got us a very cute anniversary card, flowers and a great bottle of wine. Snacks, coffee, tea, and more were provided as well. The bed was very comfortable along with the linens and towels. We had a great time relaxing on the back porch which was super cute! We really enjoyed the space and found it to be perfect for our stay. Banner Elk has lots to offer as well. We did a wilderness adventure ropes course which was next to the alpine coaster, ate many meals in downtown Banner Elk— loved Banner Elk Tavern, stonewalls, Sorrentos bistro and Bella’s breakfast and lunch. Also we hiked on grandfather mountain and went to grandfather mountain winery. It was such an enjoyable weekend and we highly recommend Katrina’s place!!
The Condo was absolutely adorable and met all our needs. I was very impressed with the cleanliness and the accommodations. The size was prefect for myself and my two daughters. It was central to everything and exactly what I hoped for in my stay. The hostess was extremely nice and responded quickly with any question I had. My rating is a 10 out of 10 and I plan to return!!
