Family-friendly vacation rentals in Banner Elk

If you are looking for quiet, peaceful surroundings, this is your place! Beautiful chalet with lots of room to make wonderful memories with your family. Great host with excellent communication!

Clark and Mary Kay are the coolest people you'll meet. They make you feel welcome and treat you like you've been friends for years. I would recommend this place 10/10! thanks for a great time guys!

House was great. Very clean and the host were extremely helpful and responsive.

Even though it was a short stay for us, I can’t say enough positive things about our experience. Simon’s hospitality was exceptional. He went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful. Beautiful location beside the River to enjoy from the front porch. Very pleased with the accommodations. Everything you need for a relaxing stay. Thank you again Simon!

The house was exactly as described in the listing. It was perfect for my family of four. We enjoyed the air hockey table and hot tub downstairs. The home was clean and quiet. The location was close to Blowing Rock, Boone, and the parkway. We were able to cook several meals with the kitchen utensils and appliances available. And the gas grill also came in handy. Gail prepared us for arrival and was very friendly and responded quickly to my questions. I highly recommend this home and will hopefully be back in the future!

We loved everything about the place and our stay was perfect. We highly recommend it to anyone. Greg was very excellent at communicating.

We had a great stay! The house is very spacious yet very warm and welcoming with super cute decorations. The hot tub was well maintained, you do have to push the buttons pretty hard to get them to work, which was no biggie when we figured it out. The downstairs was the perfect place for a cuddly movie night. This was the first place I've stayed that provided some snacks it was a great touch. The kitchen was stocked will all essentials pots pans and appliances. The bedrooms and bathrooms were also very well stocked and clean. This place is huge and so is the yard. My only piece of advise is to update the pictures in the posting. I was hesitant to book, and almost didn't because it looked like its was on a busy street and had small rooms. I was happily surprised that it was in a private area and could very easily fit 8 adults in beds. It was more than enough room for us 4 adults. 10/10!

The location was lovely and perfect to host my bridesmaids and family for my wedding weekend. I would definitely return just for some r and r with my now husband. The space is private and beautiful! I loved that we could go outside and hear the beautiful sounds of the stream near by. And the house was absolutely stunning. My mother and I loved that each bedroom had its own name on the floor. 10/10 recommend.

Can't say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay! Richard is an excellent host who obviously wants his guests to have the best stay possible. Our personal favorites were the outdoor areas. The surrounding are so beautiful and peacful, and Richard's home provides a gazebo, porch with sofa, fire pit, and deck dining which we loved. If you want a cozy cabin in the mountains, Richard's place is for you!

Very nice place with excellent fishing. I would highly recommend.

Tom is very responsive. Answered all of our questions and replied promptly. There was a large group of us visiting for our granddaughter's graduation from App State. We had a great time playing pool , corn hole, and board games. Kitchen was well equipped to prepare our food for the party. The sleeping accommodations were all very comfortable. Three full baths was so great to have with our group. The setting was beautiful, serene and private. Would definitely stay there again.

Great place to stay! We loved the view and the space to spread out and enjoy our time!

We loved the location near downtown blowing rock but also great views of the mountains. Very clean and well kept. Had everything we needed.

The cabin is beautiful and spacious. We loved the peaceful feeling both inside and out. The jetted tub was a great feature and there was both a gas and charcoal grill available for us. We loved sitting out on the sliders on the deck and the swing around the fire pit. Hopefully it is available the next time we come visit our daughter.

This place was just what the Dr. ordered. We visited the area for a long weekend to get in some hiking and visit Johnson City and ETSU. This was by far the best "pet friendly" rental we have ever stayed at. The fenced in dog run was awesome for our two dogs and so convenient to the master suite. The rental itself was so clean you wouldn't have even thought it allowed pets. The 3br/2bth set up was perfect for our family of 4 (inc. 2 teenagers). The best part about this place is the rushing creek/little river right in front of the house. Morning coffee just feels elevated sitting next to the water. There is a great waterfall hike just 10min from the house (Laurel Falls). Make sure you stop by the Appalachian Coffee Cupboard afterwards for a coffee shake. All in all, if either of our kids attends ETSU, this will be our permanent basecamp when visiting.

This was the perfect house to stay in for my graduation. It wasn’t too far from App and had everything we needed. Angela was responsive and timely whenever contacting her. The book in the living room was fun to look through.. I’m glad more people have been able to enjoy this space. We will be returning soon!

Very comfortable lots of space very relaxing would love to stay again

I had a great month long early spring stay at this mountainside studio condo with beautiful mountain and valley views. The unit was clean, comfortable, relaxing, and was perfect for my very simple needs. There are many on site and nearby (non-ski season) mountain hiking trails and quiet neighborhood road walking routes. I appreciated having access to the heated indoor pool and fitness room in the community clubhouse. Overall, a wonderful spot for anyone looking to enjoy the mountains!

This is our second stay at Nicole's place. Five-star accommodations - squeaky clean, super comfortable beds, and we appreciate all the extra amenities (coffee, snacks, spices, etc.). The deck is the perfect place for a morning coffee or evening meal. Can't beat the location as you can walk to town, the outlet mall, and the trails at Cone Manor Park.

What a great place! Also the host was very kind and great communication! Very nice place and only 10 minutes from Sugar Mountain. Wonderful amenities including pool, hot tub, sauna, library, shop, workout room etc etc. Only (potential) issue which is no fault of the owners is that this is a large 10 story condo complex. On busy days, especially around the weekend it can get very busy during check in and check out and you have to park outside of the guard shack and get shuttled back to the condo. Again, we didn’t really have much of a hang up but others did-just something to keep in mind. Fantastic place, and well equipped! Thank you again!

We enjoyed our stay at Abril and Christophers place. Location was great for access to the mountain biking trails.

Great home to stay in with family in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Property was very comfortable and clean. We would book again.

Whitney & Jay were great hosts—responsive and helpful when we had questions. The space was just as shown/described in the listing. My family of four enjoyed our stay during spring break and our first time skiing during Sugar Mountain’s end-of-season March Madness. We made such wonderful memories here. Be sure to enjoy the most stunning sunrises and sunsets from the balcony.

This was a perfect little getaway for my family to enjoy a weekend together. The cabin was cozy and comfortable. We would definitely stay again.
