What's nearby

  • This is the headstone of Banner Elk, North Carolina. This elk has been in the town forever, but this past year the elk has been refurbished and installed as the centerpiece of the town. This elk frames Appalachia in the sense of this small town pride in the mountains. In the background you can see the historic elementary school and rolling mountains and once again the North Carolina pride of the state flag surrounding this elk even though about 100ft to the right there is another flagpole with the same flags raised high and proud. This is where every child in this town went to school in this picturesque location but as time rolls on is Appalachia move on too? #appalachianechoes

  • Throughout my childhood I spent so much time at this park. I always remember of thinking of it as the park in the middle of the mountains. What I never noticed as a child was how every single aspect of this park was planned out and put there for a reason. Likewise before studying the photographic image I had never thought about how we construct a image and its affordances and constraints. One thing I really want to point out in this image is that while we have this beautiful park there is a huge ugly pipe in the middle of the photograph. It is part of the necessity of the planning of the park, just like the frame is a necessity of an image. We sometimes want to forget it is there but it is a necessary part of an image and still has meaning. #appalachianechoes

Perfect ski weekend

The property was stunning and our host was kind enough to shovel the driveway before we arrived. Everything was clean and beautifully appointed with the added bonus of being close to skiing. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Another magical experience

This is our second time staying at the Wildflower Cottage. It is difficult to describe the beauty and peace that surrounds every aspect of this property. The pictures of the interior cannot capture the artistry of the design, craftsmanship, and decor. It is a peaceful refuge for the soul and we look very forward to our next stay.

Idealic home and setting

This home was like living in an historic novel, stepping into another time but with the modern touches needed for a comfortable stay. We enjoyed cooking a couple of family meals in the darling kitchen with the gorgeous upgraded appliances and we were so close to Banner Elk to dine in some great restaurants and shopping. The breathtaking mountain views, serenity of the pasture with farm animals as well as the period decor and amazing architecture made our stay different from the norm in the best way!

Mini Adventures

Wow! Was the word used over and over during our stay. We LOVED everything about this cottage. The location, the scenery, the farm animals, wildlife and antiques. So beautiful and peaceful. We want to come back and see more. Our biggest complaint is our stay was way too short. Thank you for wonderful memories.

I was so excited when i saw this listing and seeing it in person did NOT disappoint. It was even better than expected! The owners were so kind and helpful and I loved getting to spend time with the farm animals! Make sure you bring an apple or two for Dusty!

Perfect weekend getaway

My daughter and I enjoyed our overnight stay. Everything was perfect. The cottage was cozy and comfortable with a beautiful view of the mountains. We loved how Dusty (the horse) greeted us each time we crossed the street. Felt like an old English cottage and we will definitely go back. The house was decorated with an attention to detail that exceeded our expectations.

Pictures Don’t Do It Justice

We enjoyed our stay at Wildflower Cottage. The house is lovely; everywhere we looked there were beautiful antiques and delightful architectural details. The fireplaces made it so cozy, and the view was stunning. The gardens were gorgeous, with great hardscape and pretty plantings for every season. The animals across the road were fun to watch, including a horse, two goats, and a dog named Arlo. A family of deer entertained us in the morning. The location was private and super quiet; we all slept well. Restaurants were easily accessible within a 5-minute drive. We only wish we could have stayed a little longer!

NC High Country meets cottage in the movie Random Harvest

Property met or exceeded all our expectations. It reminded us of a quaint English cottage in an old movie. Two sitting room areas look out over a beautiful valley in the North Carolina mountains. Below the home you have a welcoming committee of two, a beautiful and friendly bay-colored horse and his constant companion a shaggy sheep dog. If you like quaint, relaxing, and comfortable surroundings with privacy and natural beauty Wildflower Cottage is your place! All this and a short convenient drive to the charming village of Banner Elk. John and Carol Winston-Salem

Mountain Retreat

If you would like a luxurious place to stay in a beautiful mountain setting, this is your place! We thoroughly enjoyed the amazing design of the cottage and grounds, but it was the craftmanship and impeccable appointments that made it so special. The bonus is the farm-like atmosphere and the historical aspect of the property. The cottage was easy to find and check in was a breeze. Our Host, Paul, was responsive with our pre-check-in questions, and was nearby if needed – although we felt incredibly pampered and did not want for anything. In fact, we enjoyed the property so much we cancelled our plans to explore the area and simply stayed ‘home’ to savor our privacy and luxury. We have already recommended this property to several people, and would highly endorse it again. Thank you for a great stay!

Enchanting Home Away From Home

This special home is truly magical! We cannot put into words how wonderful our stay was in this unique and stunningly beautiful property. Every comfort was afforded with modern conveniences throughout, yet the home feels and lives like an enchanting old country cottage straight out of the Cotswolds of England! The beds are great, linens top shelf, fully stocked kitchen complete with China, and 2 gas fireplaces that will warm you body and soul. Oh and the jacuzzi tub is sublime! Located just outside of Banner Elk this property is perfectly situated for day trips to explore the quaint mountain towns, shopping and skiing in the area. Banner Elk itself had several fantastic restaurants! LP and Sorrento's were great, and The Tavern was great for cocktails and Pub Food! At the end of each day we wondered down the home’s driveway to the horse pasture and fed the owners’ horse Dusty a carrot or two and said hi to the goats and chickens. The pictures on the site are great but don’t do the property justice. The views from the Tudor style windows are breathtaking! I didn’t want to leave! Stop looking and book this home before someone else does! Of special note: Paul, the owner of this family home is so very kind. He reached out to us when power was out in the area to be sure we were ok, and when I forgot my purse when we checked out, went out if his way to overnight it to me. Stellar experience start to end. I’d give 10 stars if I could!

The feel of an English cottage in the NC mountains

This property had the feel of an English cottage in the North Carolina mountains. The owners decorated with beautiful antiques and items that show how things from linens to antique furniture were made in the past with true artistry and not just assembly line articles now sold in big box stores. Beautiful wood work throughout the home. Kitchen was well appointed and the 2 gas fireplaces were wonderful as we looked out to the mountains during this winter weekend. We found some wonderful dining places in Banner Elk and look forward to returning to see more of the town.
