Gorgeous Condo With a Breathtaking View Of The Blue Ridge Mountains

This beautifully furnished condo with a deck, decked with flowers overflowing the railings makes you feel like you've entered a sanctuary of peace and charm. Located between Boone and Banner Elk, in the gorgeous Blue Ridge mountains of western NC, this refuge offers everything for the heart,soul and the body. The tranquility and beauty are only part of the mountains. If you are a golfer, nothing compares to the golf courses within a few mles of each other. If you are a trout fisherman, be prepared to hook the best trout in the Eastern seaboard. Whether you are an adventurer or an athlete, this part of the country offers everything from wonderful hiking trails, white water rafting, bat caves, waterfalls, parks, zip-lining, repelling, boating, tubing down the Watauga and sailing to satisfy all your outdoor needs. There are day camps for the kiddies, with Tweetsie Railraod only a few miles away and Echota has two swimming pools, one indoor and the other nestled in the mountain range high above the clouds on top of the ridge. There is every kind of activity to satisfy all of your needs. Nearby, there is wonderful shopping, outlet malls, great restaurants and the nightlife is exciting filled with everything from local country bands every night in a different park or theatre. There is live theatre, movies, hoe downs, and the best BBQ in the eastern United States, not to mention the most delicious ham and biscuits anywhere. Whatever your needs, desires and interests, you will find it within a 10-15 mile radius surrounding our condo. Any sport from golf, tennis, trout fishing, white water rafting, zip-lining, are plentiful in this lush mountain region where the trees hug you. It's the best kept secret in our country!
The condo is exquisitely furnished in a eclectic contemporary, country style. The living room seats comfortably 8-10 persons. The kitchen has a breakfast bar that seats five. Artwork garnishes each room to titillate your senses. The moment you enter the foyer you know your are home! It is inviting, charming, very tastefully decorated and extremely comfortable.
Each bedroom is tastefully decorated in country style. The master bedroom has a king size bed covered with either a feathered down throw or country quilt depending on the time of year you choose to visit. It looks like something out of the Victorian era. Doors open up to a deck that overlooks countless North Carolina assorted trees that seem to extend forever including a fifty mile view. During the summer, the deck is covered with colorful blossoms that make you want to spend as much time as your schedule permits. The sounds of the birds chirping, coupled with observing the flurry of hummingbirds that surround the feeder give you a sense that you are in heaven. it's true that nothing can be finer than to be in Carolina in the morning.
The second bedroom has a queen size bed with a colorful coverlet donning the bed. It's white shutters that garnish the windows adds southern charm to an already spectacular room. Each bedroom is adjoined with a master bathroom. Each has a tub to soak your weary legs from the golf, tennis or hiking you did all day. The condo is fully equipped with everything anyone would need to make your stay pleasant and comfortable. The kitchen is fully equipped including a juicer, if you so desire. The only thing missing is you and the food you want to purchase.
Wooden floors are throughout the condo. There are televisions in both bedrooms as well as the living room. All you have to do is "show up!" Oh! Did I mention a fire place? Yes, we have one!
Warning: It's hard to say goodbye to the condo in the sky! You'll want to come back again!

A Peaceful Haven

My husband and I came to the Boone area to enjoy fall and cool temperatures in the beautiful Blue Ridge mountains. Monica supplied everything we needed to make this the perfect place to call home while we explored the area. The kitchen was well stocked with plenty of cookware and spices, the master bed was very comfortable, and the living room furniture was perfect for lounging in front of the fire or watching tv. We enjoyed each having our own bathroom, and supplying a washer and dryer was MUST for me. The cute patio/ balcony is decorated like a garden, and the view is beautiful and so relaxing! Monica is easy to talk to and will help with whatever you need to make your stay perfect. The location is a convenient 20-30 minutes from most of the places you would want to see along the Blue Ridge Parkway and nearby towns of Banner Elk and Boone. We will definitely be back!

Excellent Hostess and Comfy, Welcoming Condo

Monica is one of the best hosts ever! I never met her in person, but she takes a personal interest in ensuring you have a fabulous stay and communicates before and during your stay. The condo has great energy, which you feel right when you enter. It really feels like you're visiting the home of friends or family. The location is convent to Boone and Banner Elk, and we like to spend time in both so that worked for us as well.

Mountain Retreat

This property has a good kitchen set up, the king bed in the master bedroom is comfy, the shower pressure was just right and the TVs have lots of options. I filled the hummingbird feeder on the covered deck and had fun watching the birds drink from the feeder everyday. Great location for parks and hiking.

Perfect!

We had a wonderful stay at Monica’s beautiful place. Everything was perfect! The place was clean, had plush linens, stocked bathrooms and kitchen (t.p., paper towels, spices, appliances, etc). The deck was so very peaceful and lovely with all of the plants and flowers. We also enjoyed walking the hills of the neighborhood and using the pool and hot tub. The location is also perfect - between Boone and Banner Elk and just 2 miles from Grandfather Vineyard and Winery. We will definitely be back!

Extremely relaxing, right in the middle of it all...

This condo is located in a great, gated development called Echota. Beautifully planned, rustic architecture and expansive landscaping and amenities. From the moment you drive through the gate, you will be in another world. The condo is a very open and airy two-bedroom, perfectly decorated and styled for a relaxing mountain visit. The kitchen is open to the main great room making the space feel very large for its actual size. And even though it is a bottom unit it seems more like a top floor unit: great views, very quiet and strangely relaxing. I did not think I could ever slept 12 hours straight... you will here! You will throughly enjoy this place and the owner is a wonderful host. Book with confidence.

About the host

Hosted by Owner / Manager

Host profile image
The condo is owned by my daughter, Monica and me, Joan. We live in South Florida when we are not visiting our condo in the mountains. Monica is a hair designer and I am a psychotherapist, author and speaker. I am divorced, have five children and 6 grandchildren. Monica is single and has a boyfriend.
We both share the best of times in the the Blue Ridge, sometimes alone, sometimes together and often with our own friends. Our love of North Carolina has kept us back since we first discovered the high country in 1989. It holds a special place in our hearts that will be a part of each of us forever. We are so grateful to have come upon a part of our nation that stands alone in its unique beauty and charm. The trees in our community and surrounding area, actually hug you.

Why they chose this property

I could write chapters about this property but nothing could do justice unless you witness it yourself. It is our refuge, our sacred space and a place that represents each of us. The surrounding areas of Echota and all of highway 105 and 194 are magical. Everything looks like a storybook. It's a place we never want to leave. It might be the place that one day we might consider retiring or at least living 6 months out of the year. I wrote two books in my condo, both containing a chapter about Boone and Banner Elk. If you have a chance to relax and read, you will find all the magic in those chapters. The name of the books are THE MYTH OF THE MAIDEN: On Being a Woman and WHY DID SHE JUMP? My Daughter's Battle with Bipolar Disorder. It elaborates everything I wrote in on this site.

What makes this property unique

The unique benefits are endless. You can choose any activity you can imagine, from white water rafting, to repelling, to zip lining, gem mining, hiking, trout fishing, tubing, picking berries, concerts, theater, quilting, ceramics, sculpturing, painting, picnics, swimming, bird watching, working out, and the list goes on. There are two universities withing 10 miles of each other, ASU and Lees McCrae. One of my favorite things to do is write. The beauty and solitude brings my muse around and my writing seems to flow better in the mountains.
The weather is one of the best assets the high country has. It's cool most of the summer and can even get down to the 40's. Sitting around the fireplace, listening to classical music and relaxing is one of my favorite things to do.
Create your own vacation. There's something for everyone. Once the mountains bites you, you will always want to come back again!
