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.

Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Mary A. May 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Spacious, well-appointed home with beautiful views! My family had a wonderful stay at the Banner Elk Mountain Retreat! The rooms were spacious and spread out, the kitchen had everything we needed, and there were plenty of games and of course the pool table and loft hide out for the kids. We were blessed with a significant snow fall that kept us from leaving the property one day, but it was worth it for the family time and unexpected fun in the snow. If you are visiting during the winter time, you 100% need a 4 wheel drive. The trip up and down the mountain was a bit treacherous after the snowfall. There is a bit of a drive to the most popular places to ski and tube, but we knew that going in and it didn't bother us. My only reason for not given 5 stars is that the kitchen and family room really need a deep clean. This is not unexpected for mountain homes with cleaning crews that are focused on surface level cleaning, and to be fair, I've only once experienced a mountain home that didn't need this. It wasn't enough to upset our visit, but it's something I would request before staying again. Overall, it was a wonderful stay and a views were incredible! For that alone, I would stay again. ##### Mary A. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ethan S.
