Stayed Sep 13, 2018Cute place and attentive owners. We booked less than two weeks out so not many choices. Some minor issues but place makes up for.

Stayed Feb 16, 2026We truly enjoyed staying at Alex’s little treehouse in the mountains. We are a small family of humans and furry babies and it suited us perfectly. It was an easy drive to both the city (Boone) or the ski slopes (Sugar Mountain) - they are both within 15m driving, albeit in opposite directions. The cabin is well stocked and has been updated, so don’t let the rustic or cabin decor fool you. The kitchen has granite countertops and all of the pots, pans, dishes, and utensils you need to prepare your own meals. Alex and family have done a great job of labeling everything and provided excellent instructions detailing arrival/departure tasks. The cabinets are well labeled tooI’m not sure if it was planned this way, but the bathroom wall decor is covered in vinyl stickers from area venues and restaurants. I enjoyed reading them to check out the places that other visitors have explored. There’s definitely more to the area than skiing and the mast general store. There are tons of hiking trails and a lot of little local restaurants and shops. Just a small heads up - the community center has tennis courts, but if you’re an avid tennis player, I would go elsewhere. They are just fine for a casual pickleball match or two with the family though. Also, if you’re traveling in winter, make sure your vehicle is equipped to handle steep drives and tight S curves/switchbacks. The neighborhood is windy and only really had a single lane road one lane road once you pass the clubhouse.

Stayed Feb 11, 2023I really can't find any fault with the cabin itself, other than maybe that the light switches should be labeled. But neither I nor my kids were too thrilled about the neighborhood. The roads are narrow and steep, the yards are tiny, and the houses are practically one atop another. The kids did not have any room to play outside. Fortunately, there are places mare minutes away by car we could take them to. So, I would say that if you are travelling to the area to go skiing or enjoy Boone or Banner Elk, then this place is perfect. But if you want to enjoy a little privacy in the mountains and have outside playing space for the kids, then this is not it.

Stayed Dec 22, 2022We loved it! We enjoyed it from the moment we drove up. It was so clean and the decor was warm and inviting! It fit our family of 6 perfectly. The intent was pretty much just hole up and enjoy each other's company and that is what we did! We didn't get to go out much due to single digit temps, but we all think it would be amazing to stay again in the summer. I can't thank the owners enough for their detailed information on making the most of the cabin. We definitely made it our own and felt completely at home! Anyone looking for a cozy mountain getaway...this is the place for you!

Stayed Nov 24, 2021The cabin in Banner Elk was cozy and warm even though it was COLD outside…..in the 20’s at night! The beds were very comfortable. There are 2 flights of steps up to the cabin. They definitely give you a workout. The community of Mill Ridge is close to many things to do in the mountains.
