Sunset View Retreat, located in the Vineyard Reserve of Eagles Nest in Banner Elk, NC, is a comfortable yet refined mountain retreat. The inviting living room, warmed by a gas log fireplace, features a leather sofa and two swivel chairs, all flowing seamlessly into the dining area and kitchen. The kitchen is equipped with a large granite island with four barstools, and the dining table comfortably seats all eight guests, creating a perfect setup for gathering over meals.
For accommodations, the main level includes a king suite with large windows that capture sweeping views toward Tennessee. This bedroom offers a ceiling fan and a wall-mounted TV for added comfort, along with an ensuite bathroom with a double granite vanity and a tiled shower. On the opposite side of the main floor, a second cozy space doubles as a TV lounge, complete with a plush couch that converts to a queen-sized pullout bed. An attached bathroom features a tiled tub/shower combination and granite counters, providing both convenience and style.
Upstairs, guests will find two additional bedrooms and a shared full bathroom in the hallway. The second king bedroom offers mountain views, a ceiling fan, and a TV, while the bunk room includes a twin-over-full bed, a ceiling fan, and a TV—ideal for families or friends traveling together.
Outside, the deck is an ideal spot for relaxing with a glass of wine from the nearby Eagles Nest Winery, which is only a two-minute drive or a small hike away. From the deck, steps lead down to the grounds, where a scenic path takes you to the firepit area with chairs—perfect for enjoying quiet evenings under the stars. Sunset View Retreat is a warm and welcoming place to experience the beauty and serenity of Banner Elk.
