Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Banner Elk

DJ's home is BEAUTIFUL. It is decorated so nicely and has the most amazing view of the mountains. You're a quick drive to both Blowing Rock and Boone, but still far out enough to be in the mountains. It's a huge plus that the porch is covered because the last day of our trip, we had some rough weather, but we were still able to sit outside and enjoy the porch and crisp mountain air. My husband and I are already planning to go back in the Fall!

The place was very quaint and peaceful. Benjamin and Sommer communicated very well. Everything was very clean and the views were beautiful. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again!

We arrived much later than we had anticipated and Carl and his son were there to greet us. Carl showed us around the house and explained how to use the lights and appliances. He also had the refrigerator stocked with breakfast cereals, milk, bread, coffee, etc… Our dogs loved roaming the outdoors.

great space and convenient to sugar!

We had an amazing stay and thoroughly enjoyed the front yard for all day sledding! The house was spacious - perfect for our four families! Most importantly, the hosts were super friendly and responsive to any questions we had! We will definitely be back to enjoy the river in the summer!!

We had a nice weekend stay at Andrew’s place while up visiting my daughter in Boone. Was beautiful, spacious, extremely clean, peaceful and had every amenity you could want … and even some extra touches that made it even more comfortable. No stone left unturned. Thank you Andrew!

I was not disappointed, for the price it was great. It was close to everything you pointed out Thanks so much Jessica.

We visited for President’s Day weekend and had a lovely stay with our elementary age kids. Check in was very straightforward. The house was well equipped and spotless with tons of space, including a mudroom, a functional fridge with ice/water dispenser and a garbage disposal, things I’ve found are often lacking in Airbnbs. Further, we really appreciated the coffee bar and separate bowls for our Frenchie - very thoughtful! My kids loved using the big master tub, and my husband and I are always pleased to see double vanities. Beds were comfortable with lots of extra linens available. The host was super responsive. It snowed while we were there and we were able to navigate the driveway without an issue. Lastly, a functional 2 car garage with garage door openers! So valuable in freezing/snowy weather. All around a great house for a family vacation.

Amy and her husband are very friendly. It’s a very peaceful place as I lived in South Carolina and I travel up here to work for the time being I love studying at her place. This is the second week that I stayed. I will be staying there more. I enjoyed myself very friendly to talk to and she makes beautiful pottery, but as her place it’s sparkly clean very comfortable and warm and there is a local sushi restaurant and a pizzeria that I ate at that I haven’t enjoyed and will visit again.

Highly enjoyed my mountain stay! The view was spectacular, the driveway was bit rockery than anticipated but my Toyota Camry made it up fine! It was very clean and cozy! The hosts did an amazing job at communicating and accommodating our stay. The guest book was adorable and full of fun recommendations of activities to do. I really loved it here, will happily visit this same property on my next stay!! worth the money and the view!! Thanks again!!

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Warren for his assistance, especially considering we reached out at 1 a.m. His support was greatly appreciated, and I would highly recommend his place to anyone.

Wonderful place, felt very comfortable. The projector screen and speaker system was awesome! Will be going back

I work in Johnson City frequently and always try to stay at Catherine's place if it is available. It is spacious, clean, comfortable and has a full kitchen. She has recently upgraded the bathroom and made some very nice changes that make it even better. Off Street parking available. I would not hesitate to stay here again . Excellent price point for Johnson City. Close to restaurants and downtown activity and the campus of the university.

A perfect retreat for two! Simple to check in and out - had no issues. Up a gravel mountain road, so make sure your car can handle it especially if it snows!

Kevin was a very friendly host and his wife even made us cookies and offered to make us breakfast. Very sweet people and we will definitely stay again.

If you’re planning to go to the slopes this is a perfect place. Host is responsive and nice!

Great place to stay for a ski trip or a mountain getaway.

We had the best time at Nicole’s place. The condo is very spacious, extremely clean, peaceful, and has beautiful views. We loved hanging out on the porch and winding down inside by the fireplace. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need to cook. We took advantage of the playground and indoor pool located on the resort. The location is super close to Main Street and right by the blue ridge parkway for many hikes. Nicole is super responsive for any questions. We will be back!

Trey’s place hit all the marks for what I needed - clean, cozy, comfy, and affordable. Bonus points for an amazing loose leaf tea selection, gorgeous mountain views at sunrise and sunset, and close to everything I wanted to do in the area. (Grandfather Mtn, Linville Falls, Wilderness Run Alpine Coaster were on my list - did them all in a day.) All instructions were clear and easy, and I had everything I needed for an enjoyable weekend away in the NC mountains. Go stay here and support western NC!! I hope to come back again soon :)

Ronnies Place was clean, comfortable, and quiet - the perfect place to relax after a busy day at Lees McRae College. Loved having coffee on the balcony! All of the essetials were provided by Ronnie and his communication was great.

Dean was very quick to respond and our stay was wonderful. The condo was exactly as pictured and described. It was very spacious, neat, clean, and comfortable. We will definitely be making arrangements to stay here again. Great experience! Eric

Though it’s close to the main road, you need four-wheel drive in winter to get to this condo. We got stuck and could not reach the condo- ended up driving to the next town for snow chains as that was the only way to get there. It’s a nice place and very close to Beech Mountain but important to be aware of accessibility in winter.

Best Airbnb rental I’ve ever had. Furniture was super comfortable…..beds were AWESOME…….from being comfy to the great linens! Closet was loaded with extra pillows and blankets if you needed them. Owners thought of everything by leaving little notes for things (ex: how to get water hot faster). Super generous with supplies left there……even had razors if you needed them. Loved our stay and 100% staying there again next trip!

Fabby is a wonderful host! The beautiful unit was well stocked with everything we needed. I see the care Fabby puts into making guests very comfortable for their stay. We adored being so close to the slopes. We could see the chair lift from the balcony. I highly recommend this location. We would love to return.
