    The hosts were awesome! The view was spectacular. The condo was fully stocked with what you need, just bring your food and toiletries! The fireplace was off limits (I misread this) and we could not use. TV was hit or miss (bad storm). The condo building itself had some problems. The sauna, treadmills and pool were average and/or broken. This was disappointing as working out was very limited. There was so much water around the pool walkway that you could not walk without getting your clothes wet. It seems the pool needs a bit of TLC. The pool and spa had a lot of chlorine, which burned our eyes even with goggles. The parking staff were super and kind! When parking was tight, they gave me a pass to park up top, which I greatly appreciated. The check in reception were really helpful and kind! Hosts were an A+, Condo was a B+ , Condo facilities were a C+. I'd book with my hosts again!

    Lovely condo with the best view in the area (when it is not fogged in! The weather did not cooperate with our stay!). Spacious, every thing you would ever need. Great internet for working remotely. Allow time when headed into Banner Elk to ride the shuttle to your car. This is our second stay and we will come again!

    We rented this property for a weekend away and could not have picked a better time. It snowed all weekend and we had a wonderful time. The place was comfortable, clean, well kept with a wonderful view. We were so spoiled by its owners and the staff at the lodge we could not have asked for more. We hope to return soon for another opportunity to share this property. The Purkeys were perfect host and took time to make sure our stay was memorable. We Highly recommend this property.

    Great room with awesome views and everything was as described. Room was clean and comfy, and a family of four would be fine to stay there. The staff was friendly and helpful. The windows were the only source of cooling, as was listed, but the screens on those windows are loose or broken and bugs were able to invade in the evening. Lovely place for an anniversary stay and would recommend to others.

    Me, my daughter and her friend were there for a soccer tournament (we won the championship!!) and the place was perfect for us! The view was amazing! The girls and I loved it! It was so cute and the girls definitely lived their best lives! The staff was also amazing and helpful! The only thing I would say and it’s not a negative but the shuttle. I would have rather have been able to park in the lot right out front and not have to go back and forth with the shuttle. But the shuttle crew were super fast and friendly! :)
