Book a hotel near Apple Hill Farm, Banner Elk

"Jonathan was a phenomenal host, the house is spacious and caters to family gathering so nicely. The View from the porch alone is worth it to book everything else was a cherry on top. Beds are incredibly comfortable as well! We highly recommend you stay here too."

"Amazing trip through the mountains. This charming farmhouse was all we could ask for. Big room, comfortable bed, great area"

"Perfect Mountain Retreat for Families & Groups!Our large group stayed here over Labor Day holiday and had a wonderful experience! The home is beautiful, well cared for, and feels like a true mountain retreat while still being close to the town of Banner Elk and other small towns. We even played two rounds at Sugar Mountain Golf Course, just minutes away.The wraparound deck was perfect for relaxing, having a morning coffee, or setting up cornhole (we brought our own boards). The fire pit was a bonus with plenty of seating for all to enjoy. The hot tub was another highlight, with easy instructions for keeping it safe and ready to use. Inside, the house was clean, spacious, and thoughtfully stocked. The kitchen had everything we needed, Roku TVs were in every space, and there were plenty of linens, pillows, and comfortable beds. The basement was a great hangout with a well-maintained pool table, seating, and cues.The tankless water heater was a huge plus—we never ran out of hot water, and the one time it tripped, the easy reset instructions in the binder solved it quickly. Bathrooms are spread across levels, so some planning helps, but it worked fine for us. Parking is tight (best for 4 cars or fewer), and trash must go to the local convenience center due to bears, though you can leave two bags at checkout.Overall, this home was the perfect base for our trip, with comfort, charm, great amenities, and a super convenient location!"

"Very nice. Beautiful property. Beds and pillows are great! Great communication from the owner. I would definitely stay again. Only thing you might need to know is It only has a window unit for ac, which is not uncommon in mountains. There is not water access at the cabin, but there are hiking trails. "

"The hosts are delightful. We were in the area for a wedding. The wedding venue was 13 minutes away. The room was cozy with our own bathroom. The bed was comfortable and we had a great time."

"The Castle is beyond words. We had an amazing time with a lot room to move about. ( we had 13 family members.) The decor is absolutely beautiful. Whoever owns this amazing place certainly knew how to decorate! Beds were comfortable, plenty of kitchen appliances. The driveway up is steep, but easy drivable with 4 wheel drive. We are planning on coming back next year! 5-stars! "
