Atop Banner Elk

This cabin was very comfortable, the furniture and beds were very nice. Every detail was well appointed from the drip coffee maker, to the Keurig, to the electric teapot; they really wanted you to have your coffee "your way". Everything about the kitchen was the same, thoughtful in every detail. The rooms were very dark, which meant a great sleep, but they had placed night lights in all the right places so that you could find your way in the dark. The views from the deck were spectacular, we couldn't get enough of the sound of the trees blowing in the wind. Great location as well. Thanks for a great stay. We plan to come back.

We enjoyed our stay at this home. The location is perfect as it sits directly in between Banner Elk and Beech Mountain and it's only a few minutes drive to each town. Home was very clean and the beds were comfortable. We would stay here again. Thanks!

I have rented from Blue Ridge Mountain Rentals on multiple occasions, and have always had a great experience. From the initial booking through check-out, communication is excellent. Any issues that arise, have always been addressed quickly. Expectations for check-in and check-out are clear, and more than reasonable. I know that I will continue to do business with Blue Ridge Mountain Rentals whenever I plan to visit the area.

What a great visit!!! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was very clean and quiet as well as centrally located to Banner Elk, Grandfather Mountain, Boone, and Blowing Rock.

- Jeff, Posted: 06/11/2024

From beginning to the end, everything was smoothly handled, with excellent communication from your staff. The house is beautiful and well furnished. Loved the view from the porch, and my Merlin app picked up the calls/songs of 15 different birds! Thanks.

It was the perfect house to celebrate our daughter graduating from App State with friends and family.

We rented this for a snowboarding weekend at Beech Mountain. This cabin is super close to Beech Mountain. It was very clean, & had a well-stocked kitchen.

- Mary-Lauren, Posted: 02/13/2024

We've stayed here several times and enjoy it more and more every year.

- Gabrial, Posted: 12/28/2023

Great communication before and during the stay. Cabin was well appointed and we had a great time.

- Douglas, Posted: 12/08/2023

Wow! This cabin is spacious, very clean, with beautiful views, comfortable and relaxing. This is great for a family getaway or get-together. The rooms and bathrooms are spacious, there is plenty of room to stretch out or sit on the deck and enjoy the views. We had deer about and a nice cozy fireplace. It is a place not to miss, especially for big gatherings. Caution: The roads are a bit windy, especially if one doesn't like night driving. You will enjoy it.

This is a beautiful house with a sweeping valley view. Several old friends joined me for a weekend of catching up after many years. The house was perfect for us, and the service was excellent. When we discovered the tank for the gas grill was empty, the host had a new one delivered within the hour! I hope to stay there again sometime.

- Christopher, Posted: 11/20/2023

Great cabin style house with beautiful wood inside with A frame vaulted ceiling and stunning views. Loved the warm comfortable interior furnishings furniture. Called twin beds my grandchildren bear den!

- Charles, Posted: 11/03/2023

We have stayed at ATop the last 2 years and been very pleased with this beautiful house. Looking forward to next year.

- Patti, Posted: 10/31/2023

We had the best time while staying at the house. It's a great location, especially for the Woolly Worm Festival! Beautiful time of year, great weather, and great house to stay in. We had a total of 5 adults and 2 toddlers. We had plenty of space and room for the kids to sleep. We truly enjoyed our stay and will be back in the future!

- Melissa, Posted: 10/30/2023

Couldn’t ask for a more beautiful place to stay.

- Tracy, Posted: 10/26/2023

We enjoyed the property and location. The house was all we hoped for and more. The area was very scenic.

- Vendetta, Posted: 10/04/2023

Really had a great weekend staying in this property. Great views on the outside. Clean and comfy on the inside.

- Nick, Posted: 08/15/2023

Everything about the stay was perfect! The house itself is in wonderful condition and very neat and tidy. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, and dishes for our stay. The management company even brought us a new coffee pot the same day that the one we had stopped working.

- Megan and Chris, Posted: 08/04/2023

We loved this cabin! Traveling with a group of couples the king beds in all the rooms was a HUGE bonus! We had plenty of space, the kitchen was well equipped and the grill and table outside was great too!

- V., Posted: 05/16/2023

Amazing views and perfect location! We enjoyed our week here and will certainly be back.

- Josh, Posted: 03/27/2023

Atop Banner Elk was nothing short of amazing!! We stayed a total of 8 nights and the house was well stocked with everything you could possibly need! It was super spacious and I loved that they had portable heaters in the rooms! (Fireplace was amazing and the house has regular heat as well) The house was super clean and was in the cutest little neighborhood. Centrally located to everything! We went skiing at Beech Mountain a couple times which was 5 min up the mountain, we did a few different hiking trails to waterfalls and mountain tops. We did the alpine mountain coaster and snow tubing at hawks nest (deff prefer Jonas ridge) but it was still a blast! Couldn't beat a better location to everything this area of North Carolina has to offer. We even extended our stay due to getting snow and being from Florida, we wanted to take full advantage of playing in it! Honestly the only thing that could even possibly make this house any better would be a hot tub —- just throwing that out there. But either way, this house is at the top of our list and we can't wait to come back!!! :)

Blue Ridge does a great job of making check in and check out simple. Great view and sleeping accommodations at this property. And a short ride from everything you need at the bottom of the mountain

- Lukas, Posted: 12/19/2022

The house was great, plenty of room for everyone. Check-in was a breeze, communication with the property manager was easy. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay here again if in the area.

This is a beautiful place for a family gathering. We really enjoyed the house and the deck. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking big family meals. It was also very clean and nicely furnished.

- Pam, Posted: 10/07/2022

The house and location were perfect for our family. My daughter got married at the Overlook Barn. We enjoyed family time before and after the wedding. The kitchen was well stocked for our family meals and the deck was a great place to visit and watch the morning sun and the evening sunset. I highly recommend this beautiful, very clean house for your family.

- Pam, Posted: 09/27/2022

This was a fantastic trip for our family! We made lots of memories that no one will ever forget

The house was exactly as described and was very comfortable. The view of Grandfather Mountain was awesome. We enjoyed our stay in spite of some rainy weather.

- Andrea, Posted: 11/02/2021

Nicely furnished home with very well equipped kitchen suitable for anything you may wish to prepare. We found the home to be clean which was appreciated. Nice Mountain View's. Well located especially for Beech, Banner Elk. This is at least our fourth rental through Blue Ridge Mountain Rentals and all of our contacts with the company have been efficient. Would advise renting through them.

- Janet, Posted: 08/05/2021

Great cabin, great location. Our family had a great time and will plan to rent this cabin again next year.

- Julie, Posted: 07/26/2021

We had a great time in Banner Elk and loved staying in Atop Banner Elk cabin. The cabin itself was a beautiful three story house and was perfect for our family of four and our Black Lab. The bedrooms are so spacious, and everyone had their own bathroom too, which was nice! The downstairs has two bedrooms, one with a large king size bed and the other with two large twin beds. Closets and bedroom dressers provided plenty of room for storage. The master bedroom had two nice walk-in closets! We enjoyed having coffee out on the patio overlooking the mountains. My one and ONLY negative was the height of the patio chairs. The railing on the deck was the same height and blocked the view of the mountains. Just some higher chairs outside so the view could be enjoyed. Beech Mountain Ski Resort is literally up the mountain around the corner and has some great local restaurants including amazing wood fired pizza that we really enjoyed. Grandfather Mountain is really close - about 20 minutes away. The suspension bridge is a must do! Absolutely breathtaking! We did white water rafting and went with Edge of the World right down the mountain in downtown Banner Elk. In my opinion, this is hands down the best company to go with! Family owned and operated and they provided a fried chicken lunch too. The guides are funny and energetic and provided the best day for everyone. From the cabin, it was about 10 minutes. I can't say enough wonderful things about this cabin and the town of Banner Elk. It's so close to everything- Boone, Blowing Rock, Linville Falls and Winery, Grandfather Mountain and Winery, and entrances and exits to get on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Be sure to add Seven Devils waterfall to your list too. It is a beautiful hike. We had a wonderful week and thank you for such amazing accommodations!

- Lynley, Posted: 07/19/2021

We had a great time! The house is beautiful and has all of the amenities. Kitchen is fully stocked for cooking. WiFi and cable worked great which is always a plus when traveling with teenagers! The beds were super comfy. All in all a great stay! I would highly recommend!!

- Diane, Posted: 05/17/2021

The house was fantastic and the views were amazing. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

- Aimee, Posted: 05/12/2021

The property is easy to access and is in a great location close to Banner Elk and Beech Mountain. The bed in the main bedroom was wonderfully comfortable and seemed to have a stronger gravitational pull in the morning. It was very clean, well stocked with kitchen items, and wifi and hulu live were great for entertainment! Highly recommend!

- Meredith, Posted: 05/03/2021

Overall good

- Frederick, Posted: 04/28/2021

Atop Banner Elk was a beautiful stay with great views of the mountains. It was quiet and peaceful.

- Heylen, Posted: 03/19/2021

The house was very clean and right by Beech Mountain making it easy to go skiing. The kids loved the sledding hill just a mile up the road. Had a wonderful time and would definitely go back.

- Mary, Posted: 02/23/2021

Would defiantly stay at this cabin again. Everything was spotless. Usually when you are on the way home you say “I can't wait to sleep in my own bed” but this was not the case. Whoever picked the mattresses did a dang good job.

- Jason, Posted: 02/22/2021

A great cabin in a great location! We enjoyed our stay very much! We would definitely stay there again!

- Alison, Posted: 02/17/2021

We had a great time!!! We stayed atop banner elk, it was a family trip, we couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Where do I start? The view was exceptional, the cabin was extremely clean and everything worked without flaw. I will definitely be coming back next year. Thank you blue ridge rentals!

- Jacqueline, Posted: 02/03/2021

Excellent place to stay. Very clean, very neat, and great location. 5 minutes and you are on the slopes. 4 adults and 5 kids. Perfect. No disappointment with this one.. Will stay again.

- John, Posted: 01/26/2021

The home was beautiful. We didn't expect to have Christmas decorations but there were touches everywhere, including a tree in the living room. We had 4 adults and 4 kids, so the 2 king rooms with their own bathrooms were perfect for the adults, and the boys had the basement level all to themselves with their rooms and own bathroom. There is one TV in the living room, and one in the larger bedroom on the basement floor. We didn't come for TV, so it wasn't a big deal but something to keep in mind. The location was perfect for Beech Mountain. Access to the main road is right there and in a few minutes, you're on the slopes! One person mentioned only a Keurig machine for coffee, but there is a regular coffee machine as well - just explore the cabinets; the kitchen was well stocked with pans, dishes, and cooking tools. The view is also pretty amazing! Everyone enjoyed the area and the cabin, so I'd recommend this place to anyone.

- Stephanie, Posted: 12/28/2020

We truly enjoyed everything the property had to offer during our stay. Location and views were wonderful and the check-in/check-out process couldn't have been easier!

- Jonathan, Posted: 10/27/2020

Our family had a great time celebrating my husband's birthday. Perfect set up for our grown daughter & husband, 17 year old son and his girlfriend and us. We took the top bedroom and the views are amazing. The cabin was really clean and had great layered views. The beds and pillows were really comfy cozy. The whole cabin was cozy. One thing I wish I would have investigated more is that the cabin is right next to Beech Mountain Parkway which makes it easy to get to but can be a little noisy at times. Our hearts are still full from great family time had at Atop. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. ??

- Jeannette, Posted: 09/03/2020

Great mountain house/cabin with all the necessities and more. We appreciated all the extra touches from the humming bird feeder to providing dog bowels. Great location with all the comforts of home but with amazing mountain views.

- Cari, Posted: 08/27/2020

Had family gathering with out of town members at this wonderful spacious home enjoying the view, central location, peace and tranquility that was offered. All was as advertised on website in addition to offering an abundance of cooking equipment and board games for our use. All three master bedrooms offered adequate space and comfort to meet anyone's needs. The information book provided was well designed in providing may recommendations from hiking trails to include distance and actual location to good quality restaurants in the local area. This area has so much to offer beyond what was listed to entice everyone's interest. A location my family will reconsider using again if available.

- Edward, Posted: 08/19/2020

Great cabin, amazing views, and excellent location!
