Our stay at Highland Mist, Banner Elk was absolutely perfect! We had 7 incredible nights surrounded of an adorable house, nature and snow. The Vrbo app was convenient and easy to use when making the reservation of this gorgeous house! The management of the property -Blue Ridge Mountain Rentals- answered all our emails and made sure we were happy and all our needs were covered. We highly recommend this property if you want to build beautiful memories! Audrey
We had the best time! The house was so clean and spacious! It was located beautifully high on the mountain, yet still convenient to town. We will definitely be back!
This is our third year staying at this beautiful property, it feels secluded and removed from the hustle and bustle of life in the best way. Beautiful home and property, great for the family.
Terrific property with fabulous long range views. Comfortable home with privacy, and easy access from main roads. 3 hours from Charlotte.
Quiet location but close to downtown Banner Elk. Great spot for family getaway.
Perfect quiet retreat. Our family of 6 jad a wonderful time. We got snowed in one morning till the snow plow came down the road. The weather it quite different than 3 miles down. We really enjoyed the home and thw hiking in the area.
Great time was had by all, everything was great with the exception of needing some deep cleaning. Cobwebs found and bathroom sink, tub had mildew which required cleaning but cleaning products were present to quickly rectify the situation. Other then that, the place, view, location couldn’t be more perfect.
This was a wonderful property for our family with three teenagers. The house was very clean and everything we needed to cook dinners and breakfast together was available. The views from the deck were beautiful and the outdoor fireplace was also a nice touch. The kids really loves the hot tub. We will definitely visit this place again!
Excellent get away with friends
Great location great stay exceeded expectations
We were in town for my daughters wedding. The property was very spacious. The kitchen was well stocked. We loved that every bedroom had a private bath.
Dusty and dirty glass doors and windows. Dishes put up dirty.
This was our 2nd year staying at Highland Mist, it is close to downtown Banner Elk while feeling perfectly removed. It is a perfect setup for a family looking for a time together in the mountains of NC!
We were 3 couples and a baby and had plenty of room to spread out. The house was very clean and comfortable. The view from the deck was spectacular. We enjoyed spending time in the hot tub, the outdoor fireplace and the fire pit. It was also very close to the winery and downtown Banner Elk, which had many restaurant choices. I would recommend as a first choice if your looking for a mountain get away.
Wonderfully beautiful property with views that will take your breath away day after day. Well appointed kitchen. Comfortable furniture. Lots of room to spread out, visit, enjoy, and escape the world.
The house is beautiful. The kitchen was furnished with so many extras. Very spacious loved the big yard. We used all amenities this house offered. We only had one draw back but I’m not sure it’s with the house. This is the second time we have stayed with Vrbo/blue ridge mountain rentals and the houses are not clean upon arrival. I just cleaned myself as we didn’t want anyone coming in once we had arrived. The master shower curtain needs to be replaced and the mold in bathroom needs to be cleaned. All in all we loved the house.
Home was spacious, clean and great view!
Highland Mist is a very special property. The sunsets from the deck are truly magnificent and the peaceful seclusion of the property is an introvert’s dream! Though it is kind of “tucked away” you are not far from downtown Banner Elk or Beech Mountain. Visiting with the neighboring cows and watching the deers roam through the yard was so relaxing. Would definitely stay again.
Great family gathering place to relax. Beautiful house. Kick back and chill.
Really nice place, amazing views short drive to town, and fun things to do,this a must stay for family outings, already looking forward our next stay.
