This elk has been in the town forever, but this past year the elk has been refurbished and installed as the centerpiece of the town. This elk frames Appalachia in the sense of this small town pride in the mountains. In the background you can see the historic elementary school and rolling mountains and once again the North Carolina pride of the state flag surrounding this elk even though about 100ft to the right there is another flagpole with the same flags raised high and proud. This is where every child in this town went to school in this picturesque location but as time rolls on is Appalachia move on too? #appalachianechoes](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/10821/43d8e3a4-45db-4b8d-a710-8a970ef6997f.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) The Greene 2 min drive \- 1.8 km - ![Throughout my childhood I spent so much time at this park. I always remember of thinking of it as the park in the middle of the mountains. What I never noticed as a child was how every single aspect of this park was planned out and put there for a reason. Likewise before studying the photographic image I had never thought about how we construct a image and its affordances and constraints. One thing I really want to point out in this image is that while we have this beautiful park there is a huge ugly pipe in the middle of the photograph. It is part of the necessity of the planning of the park, just like the frame is a necessity of an image. We sometimes want to forget it is there but it is a necessary part of an image and still has meaning. #appalachianechoes](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/10821/b54ab56c-1521-40d6-a4f9-9bcb4b82d501.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Tate-Evans Park 3 min drive \- 2.5 km - Lees-McRae College 16 min walk \- 1.3 km - Elk Statue 2 min drive \- 1.8 km - Banner House Museum 3 min drive \- 2.4 km ### Getting around - Tri-Cities, TN (TRI-Tri-Cities Regional) 70 min drive ### Restaurants - Town Tavern of Banner Elk 4 min drive - Blink Elk Tap Room 4 min drive - Banner Elk Cafe 4 min drive - Beech Mountain Resort Cafeteria 12 min drive - Beech Mountain Brewing Co.

We absolutely loved our weekend at the farm house! The house was cozy and provided a very relaxing and peaceful environment. It was also clean and had a well equipped kitchen. The highlight for my kids was the horse, goats, dog, and chickens. We fed them everyday and the chickens provided two eggs for breakfast! That was a fun experience for my 7 and 9 year old. The house is 5 minutes from downtown Banner Elk, and we enjoyed the Banner Elk Cafe and walking around town. The owners are responsive and live nearby. We had a delightful conversation with Ms. Lehman about the history of the house and the personalities of their farm animals. We will definitely come back! ##### NEIL C.

We can't wait to visit again soon!" ##### Tania S. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Duke L. Oct 18, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Magical This property really is a jewel. It was immaculately clean, well furnished, and very comfortable in all respects. So no places perfect, this one comes pretty close. Dusty, the horse, Arlo, the guard dog, and the two goats with the chickens really made this place a joy for my grandchildren. Checking for eggs, feeding carrots to the goat and just give an Arlo a great big head rub brought more joy to them than any amusement park. The view from the fire pit up the hill, and the surrounding grounds really made this a relaxing trip. Add the fall colors, and I can safely say that this was probably one of the most picturesque, peaceful, and enjoyable stays I have ever had. I'm not exaggerating. This is a very cool place. I appreciate what the owners have done and what they have provided. ##### Duke L. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tammy E.

Sep 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy A special place this historic farmhouse, lovingly cared for by our gracious hosts. Ideal location - high on a hill with mountain views - yet just minutes from town. Lots of deer and wild turkeys around besides the pet goats and the chickens whose eggs you are free to collect. Farmhouse is clean and comfortable and has many interesting antiques and other items that add to its appeal. Well worth the stay. ##### Janet L. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mona C. Jul 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We had a wonderful time in this beautiful home. Loved the history and all the preserved pieces of this farmhouse but also enjoyed the garden tub and other amenities!! We had 3 generations and was glad for a first floor bedroom. This home is in the valley and not far at all from Banner Elk, therefore, you do not escape road noise. You even get to watch airplanes take off if you are lucky all while watching deer. We thoroughly enjoyed it. ##### Mona C.

The front porch was inviting, the fire pit was great for family togetherness. The house was tastefully decorated and warm. Our family thoroughly enjoyed the weekend and the location is very close to downtown Banner Elk. ##### Matt W.
