Boasting a gorgeous modern farmhouse aesthetic, this two-level house includes all the comforts of home in a blissfully quiet location, perfect for a long and rejuvenating Banner Elk getaway! Inside, you'll find many high-end details and an open lower-level layout encompassing multiple living areas, a pool table, a shuffleboard, and a wet bar. When you're not out skiing or exploring downtown Banner Elk and the nearby festivals and cultural events, kick your feet up and watch TV. The full kitchen has stainless steel appliances, handsome countertops, and breakfast bar seating, while the adjacent dining table has seating for six. Or, dine alfresco on the expansive furnished deck with mountain views. Spend quiet afternoons reading a novel from the comfort of the swing bench. A gas grill is available for summer cookouts, and you can serve everyone at the large picnic table. Evenings are best spent gathered around the firepit toasting s'mores and stargazing.
Upstairs, you'll find three well-appointed bedrooms, each with a TV and access to the furnished upper-level deck with mountain views. The main suite has its own en suite bathroom, and the other two bedrooms have a shared hall bathroom. A large office space off the primary bedroom is ideal for remote workers and students. The office includes an electronically adjusted desk for standing or sitting and space for two people to work. The garage offers plenty of room for coats, boots, skis, and more, and the mudroom has a stainless steel sink. The gas stove will keep everything nice and toasty on those cold winter evenings, and summer guests will appreciate the central air-conditioning. There are plenty of games for the kids to play, and on sunny days, they can romp around the enclosed yard while you challenge your friends to games of shuffleboard and pool.

Great spacious layout with plenty of beds and entertainment options within the residence. 4/AWD is required for the driveway if any snow or ice is on the ground.
8 / 10Excellent·Jul 2025
depending on your itinerary, the location is super convenient to downtown banner elk, the restaurants and shops. the home is super private, but you are closer on one side to some apartments then the pictures so, but was not of any concern to us. bedrooms are super quiet, and the home has lots of space for family and friends to spread out and relax. the expansive deck is super nice, both levels, with direct access from each bedroom.
10 / 10Outstanding·Feb 2025
There was plenty of storage everywhere - for clothes and especially in the bathrooms. We loved how many beds were available and everything we could need in the kitchen. However, we were extremely short on towels - there wasn't even enough for all of us to shower, let alone use the hot tub too. The house was in a great location and worked well for two families staying together. The driveway has some very sharp turns and is difficult to navigate if you are arriving in the dark and it's snowy/icy outside. Adding some extra gravel to widen the hairpin turns would help a lot.

Hot tub was on, but water smelled terrible and was unusable. My son gagged when we opened the cover. Water was dirty. Local contact never responded. Vacasa rep said they would alert the local team but no one ever came.
Bedrooms and bathrooms were clean, and the family enjoyed the pool table and shuffleboard. However, the kitchen table was covered with crumbs and sticky spills. My bath towel had blood stains. Lots of maintenance issues around the house - broken off doorknob to the deck, bathroom doors that didn’t latch, etc.
The living room has an odd setup- the sectional sofa is behind the wall mounted TV. Not good for family to watch a game together. Some had to sit on kitchen stools while sectional sat empty.
We have stayed in many rental properties in the area, including another managed by Vacasa. This one was not up to the usual standard.
Driveway is very steep with sharp turns - this is not mentioned on the Vrbo listing. Vacasa tells you after you pay and get your confirmation. I would not recommend in winter without AWD.
