Description
Come enjoy all the High Country has to offer as you stay at Lilly's Mountain Escape.  This cozy mountain home has an unbeatable location, just a short walk from downtown Banner Elk or a short drive to the towns of Beech Mountain and Sugar Mountain.  

On the main level, guests can enjoy a beautiful kitchen with granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and stunning custom cabinets.  Around the corner, you and your family will love to spend evenings gathering in the living room, with a gas log fireplace and large Smart TV.  From the main level, you can step outside to access the main wrap-around covered porch, with a hot tub and gas grill.  It is the perfect place to relax after a day in the mountains or exploring Banner Elk.

Going up to the second floor, you will find the primary suite with a king bed, a private TV, a welcoming gas fireplace, and an ensuite bathroom that offers a luxurious soaking tub and a beautiful tiled shower.  From the primary suite, you can step onto the upper wrap-around deck and enjoy the mountain air.  Down the hall, you will find the second king bedroom, which also offers a private TV and access to the upper deck.  The third bedroom is nearby with the final king bed and private TV.  The shared bathroom is located conveniently in the hallway near these rooms.

Beech Mountain Ski Resort and Sugar Ski Resorts are each under 15 minutes from the home.

We had a great stay! The place was very clean, well-kept, and exactly as described. It felt comfortable and welcoming, and we really appreciated how convenient the location was, it’s within walking distance to several restaurants, which made things so easy.
The only minor downsides were some road noise and parking being a little tight since we were driving a large truck and had another vehicle.
Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it!

Great location in the heart of banner elk
- Noel, Posted: 07/21/2025
Great townhouse and very comfortable. The wrap around porch was our favorite. We didn't drive the whole trip because we walked across the street to everything you would ever need. The Village of Banner Elk is a 6 min walk to great restaurants, live music and shopping. My husband's band played there Saturday night and being able to walk home quickly was great plus we brought our black lab who was also very cozy and had the best walks followed by long naps. Thx!

Great Spring Break getaway in Banner Elk! Home was just as described on VRBO. Location was perfect with day trips to Linville Falls, Boone, Blowing Rock, and Valle Crucis.

Fantastic for my family of 4 (2 kids ages 7 and 10) and our dog. The only negatives are the street noise heard from master suite (just bring ear plugs). They have a fan in each room for white noise also. We had such a good time and were very comfortable in this home. I would definitely stay here again.

Great location, walking distance to Banner Elk restaurants and entertainment. Noise from downtown area is not excessive, unit is directly across from fire station but only heard horns and sirens a couple times in 5 days. Unit was clean, well appointed and met all of our needs, we were able to cook dinner each night. Bedrooms are large and beds are comfortable. Master shower does require a bit of trial and error to get all shower heads working. Check-in and check-out were a breeze.

This was our second time staying at this property and it doesn't disappoint! My only suggestion to the property management company/owner is to update the Owner suite shower head but other than that everything is fantastic and would 100% stay again if i have the chance.

Perfect location between Sugar Mountain and Beech Mountain for a ski trip. Super walkable to everything in Banner Elk. Property was one of cleanest I've visited, and beds were super warm and comfortable. Even enjoyed the clean, warm hot tub. And, no long list of chores at checkout. Just take out the trash and turn on the dishwasher. Great property. Just be aware there is noise given the location is right in downtown banner elk.

The house was very nice and close to sugar mountain and other area attractions. It was pretty easy to get in and out and go into town. Walking distance to a few restaurants and the little town of Banner Elk.
- Robert, Posted: 12/21/2023
I was super impressed with this property. Very well kept, clean close to the ski slopes. Truly wonderful and will stay here again. Only complaint would be the parking. The driveway only accommodates 1 car and the garage door was broken. The property manager was super helpful in finding an alternate parking space so no big deal but would love to come again and use the garage next time as well.

Location is ideal- overlooks mountains and town. The town music was excellent, and we were entertained on deck. The property was very clean, well equipped, very comfortable and everything was in working order. We want to stay there again next year. A few minor items: Upstairs bathroom top of stairs- hot faucet on sink moves around. Master BR fitted sheets had some sort of blue wax on it. Water pressure a bit low and ran out of hot once. Shower head in MBR a bit difficult to use. Hot tub's cover a bit aged and very heavy. Not sure if recycle available but left note on our 1 bag which we left in garage with other garbage bags.

Very nice home with all basic needs covered! It was in a perfect location for access to downtown. The hot tub was great. Perhaps some instructions for removing the very heavy cover would be helpful. The home was clean and the extra touches of toiletries and expertly folded towels were nice. We didn't use the fireplaces but they looked nice. I would recommend this home.

Our son attends Lees-McRae; this is THE BEST PLACE to stay! It's walking distance to downtown - shopping, pubs, restaurants - and campus. Well-appointed. Open space great for gathering. Well-managed. We lost power while there, and our contact was easy to reach and kept us informed until it was restored (very short outage due to wind.) STAY HERE! It's great!

Great place to stay. Good location right between both Sugar Mountain and Beach Mountain, 30 minutes to Boone, Blowing Rock, Grandfather Mountain and Tennessee. Place was clean and well stocked with the amenities you'd need for your stay. Towels, toiletries, kitchen appliances and utensils with extras. A few things need some attention as do all places this is a home so I believe its to be expected. Overall we would stay again and recommend to others we had everything we needed and had a great time. Thank you to the homeowners for allowing us to share their place. The Crews Family

Our family of 4 spent the week of Thanksgiving at John's place and we were very comfortable. The unit is spacious, clean and very cozy. The beds are comfortable and plenty of closet space. The kitchen is stocked with everything you would need. We spent time in the hot tub as well as in front of the fireplace in the evenings watching TV. The location was also amazing. We walked to breakfast at Banner Elk Cafe and dinner at Sorrento's. The supermarket is also close by as well as neighboring towns to visit. All in all, the unit is centrally located, the owner is communicative, and we will for sure be back again real soon.

This listing was everything and more! The location and view were literally out of the story book. They had everything you need in the kitchen to prepare meals. Walking distance to downtown Banner elk. So after a few drinks we didn’t have to worry about getting a vehicle because we literally walked to the area and after enjoying some drinks and music we walked back. Also the hot tub was absolutely amazing. My daughter loved it. The wraparound porches was the cherry on top
