About this property

4 Bears Lodge - Pet Friendly mountain home in Banner Elk

Welcome to 4 Bears Lodge in Banner Elk!

This three bedroom home is the perfect retreat in the mountains. Located a short hike to the Banner Elk Winery and nestled in the trees, enjoy the year round views of the mountains and foliage. On the main level, you'll find the open-concept living, dining and kitchen, with a wall of windows to take in the views. The gas log fireplace turns on and off with a simple wall switch, creating a cozy environment. Comfortable seating surrounds the fireplace and flat screen TV. The home has Skybest for TV, including multiple ESPN channels. In the kitchen there is ample counter space for meal prep and both a Keurig and a standard coffeepot. The bar has seating for two to complement the dining table with seating for six. Two bedrooms are on the main level, and there is a full bathroom with a tub/shower combination and double vanity in the hall for access. One bedroom has a queen bed, the other has two twin beds. A full washer and dryer are off the hall on the main level.

Upstairs is the loft with a foosball table, seating, and views out the picture window. There is a king bedroom upstairs and a full bathroom featuring an oversized soaking tub, a shower, and double vanity. Air conditioning keeps the home cool even in July, not that many need it with the mountain breezes!

The deck wraps around from the side entrance to the back, and has a mainlined gas grill and dining table. On the deck is a newly installed hot tub for up to six overlooking the valley view. On the grounds below is a fire pit with stacked chairs under the deck.

Explore the area with a five minute drive to Banner Elk, or 15 minutes to the Mast General Store and Valle Crucis Community Park. Beech and Sugar Ski are each 15 minutes away.

Great weeked get away

We absolutely loved the cabin! It was very cozy and perfect for our family. It was very convenient to Beech mountain and downtown Banner Elk. The place was incredibly clean! We loved all the amenities and the very soft towels! Such a wonderful place to stay. The only concern is the GPS didn't quite pinpoint the location. And we had to venture out on our own to find it. Thankfully additional directions were provided to us by the property management company.

Stay at 4 Bears

Sheets in master bedroom had crumbs, not sure they were washed so we washed them. Someone left dirty shirt and underwear on dresser in master. Neighbors dogs started barking at 4:00 AM everyday!

Weekend stay

Place was beautiful and exactly what we needed for our weekend in NC. We were there for our friends wedding in the mountains, and couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Hot tub was a great bonus after a long day. Great communication from property management and very clean. Highly recommend
