The main level unfolds into a spacious, open-concept living area with tongue-and-groove ceilings, rich wood finishes, and soft, cozy furnishings, all inviting you to relax. The fully stocked kitchen is a delight for home chefs, featuring custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a generous island with seating for three. Just beyond, a dining table for six sets the scene for shared meals and laughter-filled evenings. When you're feeling competitive, be sure to gather your group at the table and grab one of the assorted games provided in the pantry or head upstairs and turn on the classic arcade console for over 40,000 retro games.

A convenient half bath and laundry room is located just off the main living space for added ease. The main-level primary suite is a haven of tranquility, offering a plush king bed, a private TV, ceiling fan, and soft mountain light pouring in through the windows. The ensuite bathroom is set up for comfort with a custom tiled walk-in shower and granite double vanity. Upstairs, the second bedroom is equally inviting, featuring two comfortable queen beds beneath charming tongue-and-groove ceilings. A ceiling fan stirs the mountain air, and the private ensuite bath with a tub/shower combo makes it a family-friendly space for guests of all ages. Step outside and let the magic of the mountains surround you. The deck is your front-row seat to nature—complete with an outdoor dining table, gas grill, and a cozy fire table for crisp mountain evenings.

Everything was new and clean. The kitchen is well equipped, and we enjoyed sitting on the deck. Comfortable beds and furniture. Really quiet and peaceful. It’s a pretty interesting drive up there from Banner Elk. It is located on a gravel road, but that was not a problem. We look forward to returning. ##### Maria V. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ---
