Our family came to Banner Elk NC for the first time in the winter of 2003. We fell in love with Banner Elk and came back almost a dozen times over the course of the following year. Summer, Fall, Winter, Spring; Sun, Rain, and Snow, we loved it all.
Disney built their world, but If you want a real magical experience, you deserve to treat yourself to some time in Banner Elk, Boone, Blowing Rock, Linville and the rest of the High Country. Gods Kingdom, Mother Nature. Whatever you call it, it’s not an illusion, IT IS REAL MAGIC. A vacation at our Banner Elk hotel is therapy for the mind, body and soul.
Banner Elk is nestled between Ski Sugar Mountain Ski area, and Ski Beech Mountain Ski resort, and offers some of the best views of the famous Grandfather Mountain on the Blue Ridge Parkway. We are walking distance to Lees McRae College. close to Boone NC, Blowing Rock NC, Linville, and Valle Crucis (home of the original Mast General Store).
Little Main Street of Banner Elk NC has the special charm and feel of a Bed and Breakfast b&b but offers the privacy as well as the personal accommodations that only a small resort lodge can offer. You can relax with all the comforts of home, while enjoying a gorgeous mountain setting.
After a day of hiking Grandfather Mountain, biking, golfing, skiing at Sugar or Beech Mountain Ski Resorts, zipline riding or tubing at Hawksnest, caving at Linville Falls and Caverns, mountain climbing, water rafting, fishing, swimming at Elk River Falls, sampling wine at the local Blueberry Villa and Winery, or just exploring nature; you will look forward to returning to your relaxing accommodations. Enjoy the evening while rocking on your front porch with some popcorn from the lobby, or tea and coffee with a bedtime snack.
