Relaxing 2 bedroom river side home. Home located in Banner Elk, NC

Relax with the whole family at this peaceful cozy cottage on the river, with electric fireplace, baseboard heat and personal room portable heaters. Beautiful French doors in the living room to enjoy the view.

Enjoy the rushing sounds of the river while sitting on the porch with a cup of coffee in the rocking chairs or having dinner. Creek is fishable when water levels permit.

Firepit situated right on the creek.

Second bedroom, guest favorite, has wall of windows for amazing view of creek and private entrance from porch.

Weekend Stay
This place was had everything we needed. We visited Blowing Rock, Boone and Grandfather Mtn and it was a short drive to all. We enjoyed a fire in the outdoor fire pit while listening to the river.

It's older and it's small, but we had a great time there. Grandkids loved the river and the swing over the water. They chose that over the community pool! The mattresses were great, very important for us grandparents!

Beautiful little place for the family to get away. Kids loved the creek, riding the scooters and the swing. Nice back porch with rocking chairs to just enjoy the view. Would definitely stay here again in the future! Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to make memories and just enjoy each other!!

Cute River Cabin
Cozy cabin. Great location. Loved the river views. Only cons were that the coffee maker was missing the insert where the coffee goes, so we couldn't make coffee. And the hot water doesn't last very long. Otherwise, very cute and convenient. The fire place made the entire cabin warm and was a great addition. Would stay again.

Pleasant Stay for a short visit
Older home, very small kitchen, nice fireplace and having the stream behind the house was relaxing. Easy drive to Boone, and beds were comfortable. Shortfall was lack of TV stations as we wanted to watch some College Football on Saturday and NFL on Sunday. Could not log into our streaming service as the Roku required a PIN which had not been set up.

2023 Mountain Trip
The only thing there was some old used doors at the back of the house propped up at a tree that wasn't very nice for the view of the river. That's all. Every thing was very nice and we would stay there again.

Cozy cabin!
I took my son and his friends to Banner Elk for a birthday celebration. My son absolutely loved the cabin and said he could live there. It was cute and cozy, yet slept out party comfortably. We loved the river running behind the property. We would definitely stay again!

Love the area
Pros: absolutely love the location! The river flowing behind the house was awesome and so peaceful to just sit and listen to (once the kids were in bed :) ). The house had all the essentials plus some which was helpful. Enjoyed a nice fire in the fire pit and kids got to roast marshmallows. Close proximity to all the areas we wanted to visit (Linville falls, Grandfather Mnt., Otter Falls, Blowing Rock, etc). Cons: arrived at 5:30pm with tired children after a long drive from FL and the cabin had not been cleaned from the prior guests. Apparently the cleaning lady forgot. The owner was quick to respond when I notified her of the issue. Advised some would be there shortly to clean. The sweet lady who arrived to clean at 6:30pm wasn’t the cleaning lady who forgot, but a friend of hers. Unfortunately, as this was not something she typically did, so it toilet her about 2+ hours to clean and we did not have access to the cabin until almost 9pm. (With an overly tired toddler, this was not a pleasant few hours wait). The owner was very apologetic in reference to the issue. Also, the cabin could use a deep clean due to lots of cobwebs (not a big deal to me, but might be to others).
