Five Star+++ Home and Vacation, Thanks To Wonderful Hosts- May 2019

Part of what makes this house so lovely is the owners, and all the care they put into each detail in offering such sweet hospitality that will make you want to return to this home again and again. From our first communication with the Berry family, they went over and above with kindness. Check-in was simple (including a keypad door), and soon after check-in, Mr. Berry sent a text to make sure everything met our expectations. The upstairs bedroom was just a little warm, and Mr. Berry immediately offered to lower the temperature remotely. Within minutes, it was perfect, and our children were delighted to sleep upstairs! The owners include a binder with restaurant suggestions, etc. The home itself is immaculate (I have asthma, so this is important to us), and includes absolutely everything one could possibly need. The bedrooms are comfortable in every way (the Master is spectacular), and the family room and back deck are absolutely beautiful! After a great hike at Linville Falls, we all enjoyed an ice cream party on the deck, and agreed that this was the best spot to enjoy our ice cream! The home is in such a wonderful location, with proximity to many great places to explore. The little town of Banner Elk is our new favorite mountain town! In the Spring, there are gorgeous flower baskets blooming along downtown, and we even got to enjoy an arts and crafts fair! The restaurant we visited was wonderful, and we found the people of Banner Elk to be very warm and friendly!

The home is truly a haven… You will be refreshed, and hopefully be able to return soon! Thank you very much to the Berry family for your kindness. Blessings to you!

I frequent the Banner Elk area, and I’ve found your place to the the best I’ve stayed in. It’s exceptionally clean, warm and welcoming. Truly home away from home.

I just wanted to thankyou for a wonderful experience at your home, Elk Creek Retreat, in Banner Elk, North Carolina! I needed a place to stay during the last leg of our trip and was looking for something in that specific area and by luck found their brand new listing on Home Away and was blown away from the pictures! It looked so clean and inviting , exactly what I was looking for. As soon as we got there and settled in we decided we would stay an extra night! My son and his friend immediately scouted out the place and fell in love with the upstairs area, especially the huge bean bag chair and the Xbox lol although they had plenty of board games we played on the back deck and living room area! They also picked their rooms on the ground floor each with a private bath! My husband and I looked around as we were unloading and were relieved to see the king sized bed and huge master bathroom with gigantic walk-in closet! I knew I was in the right place!

The home was amazing and far exceeded our expectations! We fell in love with the floor plan and the location was wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us. The home was very clean and the gas firepit on the back porch was so nice. We hope to stay again sometime soon …. 🙂

You have been by far some of the best hosts I’ve ever come across in my years of renting thru VRBO! You are eager to help in any way and strive to make your stay comfortable and worry free! Your home was beautiful, clean and inviting! Very well appointed with all of the little things like a well stocked kitchen, games and books!
