Cottage holiday rentals in Banner Elk

Our family was gathering for my Nieces graduation from ETSU and it was our first time being all together in 6 years. The Dogtrot was so spacious in all areas allowing us to be able to play games and eat all together. We even had a competitive game of wiffle ball in yard. We utilized all the amazing amenities the hot tub, sauna, outdoor fireplace and played games at the outdoor table. Oh and I can’t forget the serious matches of ping pong that took place in the enclosed breeze way. We only had a couple of issues the instructions for the wood fired hot tub were no where to be found but Jason responded quickly providing instructions and the oven wouldn’t work which did cause issue with family dinner but again Jason/Brent were very apologetic and worked with us since we ended up having to leave a day early. We hope to come stay again for a longer period of time!

After Hurricane Helen damaged my home, my insurance placed me in Ron’s property and it turned out to be one of the best experiences I’ve had. The home is immaculate, beautifully designed, and fully stocked with everything from cleaning supplies to spices. It truly felt like home. Ron is incredibly kind, responsive, and attentive. He replaced a driveway light and changed the BBQ gas the same day I mentioned them. The house is pet-friendly, which was a huge plus for my daughters, our dog, and our cat. The hot tub, pool table, dart board, and lakefront setting made every day peaceful and fun. It’s rare to find a place this clean, cozy, and well cared for, with hosts who genuinely go above and beyond. We’re so grateful for the comfort and joy this stay brought us during a difficult time. This is a hidden gem I’d recommend to anyone without hesitation. Thank you, Ron, for everything!

Zachary was personable and friendly from the start….even funny. I asked about an early check-in and he accommodated my request without a fee. When looking for an ideal stay, I’m always hoping that I’ll find the kind of hospitable and charming person on the other end that I can whole-heartedly recommend to others. His care and concern comes across in the space: thoughtful, clean, serene, and relaxing. I needed a space that lends toward healing as work. This space can meet many needs for both the spirit and body (since the hot tub is a cure-all!). We saw deer and were delighted with all the moss! Looking to return soon!

Sweet guest cottage in the mountains. Theme decor is very welcoming and comfortable. Gives rustic chic vibes. Feels spacious. Sofa bed linens and mattress pad made for a v comfortable place to sleep. Two bathrooms and ample hot water and towels. Up a steep hill, choose the one minute longer route up Possum vs Sunset road and it is not as twisty and steep. Probably not a walk to town kind of place due to the hillside perch but close enough that you wont mind the quick drive. We saw deer, bunnies and a bear in the neighborhood. Thoughtful host, lots of nice little touches (S'MORES!!!!).

Nice place and short drive into town. Great communication with owner and would recommend!

perfect location from town and to the slopes. The layout of the house was great for 2 families and kids.

What a fun trip and place! We enjoyed all of the amenities Beech Please offered! Our favorite was the hot tub and game room! Highly recommend!

The location for our visits to this area is perfect. Close to family and friends who live in the area yet secluded enough for us to still feel like we are getting away. The house had all we needed for a couple of days. The creek and hot tub are so nice.

A wonderful, peaceful cottage, whose owners go the extra mile to ensure your stay is memorable. Will visit again!

Very lovely place to stay. Very private and peaceful. Marc was very quick to answer and respond to our needs. Great place to stay.

Perfect place! Felt right at home. Beautiful and comfortable home with a fantastic fenced in backyard for the dogs. Located in a scenic, safe neighborhood that was very close to great restaurants, grocery stores, shops and parks. Host was super responsive and friendly. Loved everything about our stay. Would definitely return!

Wonderful town this little mountain town, Banner Elk. The Elk Cottage at the Azelea Inn was the perfect place to stay. It’s clean, comfortable and close to great restaurants, shopping and outdoor activities. Highly recommend!

Our first ABNB experience and Bill made everything easy. House was perfect for us. We are in our 50s and traveled with my 75yr old mom and too small pups. The house is amazing, clean, quiet area off the main rd. Exactly what we wanted. We will definitely return as my kids and grandkids live up here. Perfect host!

Wonderful stay in this charming cabin. Had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and was very clean upon arrival. Loved sitting on the front porch amongst the trees enjoying the cool mountain air and hearing the birds chirping while enjoying a cup of coffee. The location cannot be beat. Very easy access to everything Boone and Blowing Rock have to offer. Would definitely stay here again.

Very nice cozy little cabin. Great view. Hosts were great. It was a little closer to the highway than expected but it still felt very private at the same time and there was very little road noise at night.. everything else was perfect. Blowing Rock is the best town in the NC mountains (and there are plenty of great towns in the NC mountains). Great restaurants, local shopping and hometown feel. Trails, fishing, golf and centrally located to a lot that the Blue Ridge Mountains of NC has to offer. Highly recommend this airbnb and would go back again.

Our favorite airbnb of many! Secluded with beautiful creek, large mowed grounds, pond, screened gazebo by creek, big porch facing creek/birds/flowers! Very spacious place With 2 br, 2ba and porches. Could hear creek from inside home and porch. super cozy and felt like home away from home. Hosts were super helpful when we were driving within 9 minutes of the place and got stopped by hurricane damaged railroad track forcing us to turn around with no phone signal or GPS signal. Awesome cookies made a great dinner for us that first night. The home was adorable, uniquely decorated with the host's artistic talents. We highly recommend this affordable paradise and will likely be back!

Our entire experience was amazing. Darren was extremely helpful and accommodating. The property is beautiful with a lot of things for the whole family. We will definitely be returning for another visit. Darren went above and beyond.

It's a really charming, comfortable, clean, and quiet place. It has the best kitchen equipment of any place I've stayed: a large set of dish- and glassware, pots and pans, plush towels, comfortable bed. The host communicated well and quickly. I would definitely return.

Jo’s cabin was a peaceful retreat for my husband and I. It was very comfortable and had all the necessary amenities. An added bonus was her artwork. It was like being in an art gallery! We also enjoyed homemade blueberries muffins and blueberry & grand mariner jam.

My partner and I stay here a couple of times a year and love it every time! Please do not allow the scary news around the hurricane to deter you from staying in this beautiful location and supporting such a wonderful community. It is very clear how much work has gone into rebuilding - the cottage is easily accessible by car, and all the attractions of Boone are open. This cabin is our favorite getaway, and every time we stay we never want to leave!

The house was beautiful and very clean and stocked with everything needed. If you are looking for a relaxing tranquil stay this is it. We drank our morning coffee sitting by the fire pit listening to sounds of the stream. Amy and Mark are the best hosts and remembered it was our anniversary as mentioned. We loved the fresh eggs, local cheese and crackers. We visited all the local shops and restaurants in West Jefferson which is a short drive away. The best part was our visit to their farm Glendale Ridge. We loved seeing all the alpaca's including a new baby, goats, sheep, and dogs. We will definitely be back to visit soon.

Amazing stay - peaceful, clean, spacious, surrounded by nature. Would come back any time!

Wendy’s place is AMAZING! I don’t know where to begin with this review!! Wendy was very responsive to our inquiries and requests prior to even checking in. Wendy also gave us a few “heads up” about some important local information before we arrived. The check-in process was easy and smooth as the directions are very clear. The place was pristine and comfortable. It was so clean. It’s light, airy and open. The house has a lot of character and a lot of inclusive history was provided about the house. The amenities were just enough for us. There is a point where we had to get off the main road and onto a gravel road leading to the house. This took about 2- 3 minutes driving at a very slow pace.The cottage is in a very serene neighborhood on the mountain. It’s very scenic.The pictures match the actual house. We would stay at this location again! Top notch for sure! You will love this place!

Great stay, we had 8 people and the house was huge! The biggest negative was only one extra bathroom outside of the master. Loved the huge deck and outdoor area downstairs. Would stay again!
