Relaxing retreat
We so enjoyed our stay! There was plenty of room for families to have their space while still utilizing the comfortable group lounging areas and prepping food to enjoy for a crowd. Ample sleeping areas for multiple families or friend couples. The amenities are top notch - very roomy jacuzzi tub and nicely appointed shower and sauna area. The parking is roomy and well laid out. The mud room is perfect for coming in from a day of skiing to take of boots, snow jackets, and bibs. Plenty of storage and hanging space for outerwear!

Fantastic Home
The home is beautiful and secluded with a lot of privacy. It's about 5-10 minutes from downtown Banner Elk but it seemed much further, which was what we wanted. The property manager communicated extremely well so checking in was very easy.
If I had to complain about something, then it would be the cleanliness of certain areas. The deck has a rotted table sitting on it which could be a concern if you have kids. The floors had areas where dirt and dust had collected in corners but nothing too concerning. It just looked like no one had stayed there in a few weeks or the cleaners didn't do a very good job after the last guests.
Overall, I would definitely stay in this house again and would highly recommend it. The jacuzzi and sauna were awesome and a nice touch for adults while the upstairs area is perfect for kids.

Carolina Mountain Reunion
We rented North View Lodge and hosted a family reunion with 34 people over 11 days with family coming and going. NVL was a perfect choice for our group as the number of bedrooms (4) allowed for couples and the various other sleeping areas allowed for everyone else to have a comfortable bed. Adolescents enjoyed the lofts. Plenty of bathrooms. Kitchen appliances, grill and cookware were adequate. Bar is nice and allowed us to keep all drinks out of the kitchen and refrigerator. Outdoor fireplace was a nice gathering place in the evening. Would rent NVL again.

Wonderful Home!
We had a really great time at this property! It was large enough for all of our family units to have a great time doing what they wanted to do. LOVED the hot tub area! We also really enjoyed the outside deck with large table - we spent many hours playing games as a family out there! The kitchen is lovely! A lot of time was spent in the movie theatre room playing video games on the large screen. The table in the kitchen was big enough to fit us all. We saw deer in the back yard, loved being in nature. We did some day trips to Boone, the local winery and hiking! Wonderful trip, wonderful home!

Great Spot for a Wedding Wekend!
We housed family and all of the groomsmen for our sons wedding. It was the perfect set up! The groomsmen had the whole upstairs, bar, den, hot tub area and the parents and grandparents took the two rooms over by the kitchen. It all worked amazingly well!

Not what we expected
Very disappointed with this rental property. We arrived to trash on front porch, dog poop on back deck, burnt newspaper in fireplace and marshmallows residue on screwers. Problems with the temperature upstairs being hot, the hot tube not working and being dirty. There was around the property and on the deck. One pool stick had a usable tip. This property is very convenient to all the attractions but multiple issues need to be addressed.

Wonderful and Peaceful Stay
This was the Perfect Cabin for a large group! We had a group of 14 and everything was wonderful! Very spacious, different areas for you to do your own thing. Pool Table was a joy for everyone especially the men, Movie Theater was great and the Hot Tub was a blessing for us women and the Sauna was the tip of the iceberg! We are definitely making this our annually getaway :)

What a beautiful home!
We have been enjoying an annual trip to the mountains for the past 9 years.
All of the homes have been lovely...but, we all agreed that this home was a favorite for several reasons! The view was absolutely spectacular...a huge panoramic view! The hot tub is also an amazing feature. All of the homes we’ve stayed at have had hot tubs...but if it happened to rain, the tub became unusable! The hot tub in this lovely home was actually inside but with two sets of sliding doors that opened the room to the outside! In addition, there is a fabulous sauna!
The home is large enough to give everyone a bit of privacy but also so cozy!
We had a wonderful time and will return!!

Everything You Could Ever Need!
We have stayed at several rentals over the years, and this one easily takes the cake. We needed a large cabin for our group of 14 for our annual hiking trip. This cabin is MASSIVE and included everything we could ever need: A cozy theater, a spacious hot tub and sauna room, a wrap around deck for yoga in the morning and star-gazing at night, a well-supplied kitchen, and of course, plenty of sleeping arrangements. This cabin is only a short drive from town and close to many amazing hiking trails. Grandfather Mountain was easily one of the best hikes we've ever done. I would 10/10 recommend this property.
