9-Zimmer-Mountain- Lodge -Haus mit 10 Bädern, Pool, Feuerstelle, 2 Whirlpools, Spielzimmer

✦LIVING ROOM REDESIGN

Our living room is designed for flexibility. When evening comes, our new sophisticated leather sectional converts into a comfortable queen-size sofa bed, providing a cozy sleeping arrangement right in the heart of the home for 2 additional guests.



Picture this: golden hour spills across the Blue Ridge, two hot tubs bubble on the patio, and laughter drifts from the arcade room as the smell of burgers wafts from the grill. Tonight, 27 of your favorite people are under one roof. Tomorrow, Sugar Mountain is five minutes away, Grandfather Mountain twenty, and Boone a quick thirty. This is the lodge that turns reunions into traditions and ski trips into the story your group still tells five years later.



The Space

Step inside the newly redesigned Blue Ridge Mountain Lodge and you'll feel the hush of the mountains immediately — vaulted ceilings, nature-themed art, and that lived-in warmth that says "stay a while."



Resort Exclusives

✔ Two private hot tubs (seats 14 total)

✔ Custom-built fire pit

✔ Shared heated community pool (across the street - Open during Summer months, usually Memorial Day weekend to Labor Day)

✔ Community tennis courts

✔ Arcade machine, pool/billiards table

✔ Two 5-burner BBQ grills on the deck

✔ Direct hiking trail access from the property



Two living rooms anchor the home. The main room invites you onto plush leather sofas around a gas fireplace with a 65" Roku Smart TV — the spot where everyone ends up after dinner. A second sitting room with a 55" TV gives the night-owls and the early-risers their own space.



The chef's kitchen was built for a crowd. Two refrigerators, two cooktops, two dishwashers, three coffee makers, an air fryer, instant pot, and a spice rack mean nobody fights for counter space. A dedicated coffee bar handles the morning rush.



When it's time to eat, two locally-made live-edge dining tables seat all 27 guests together — no kids' table, no overflow.

LOCATION & WHAT'S NEARBY



The property is located in Banner Elk in Mill Ridge, a former ski community. Many of the ski trails are now used as hiking trails. One trail entrance is located right next to the driveway. A short 10-minute hike to the top will reveal a surprise from the past! There are ponds, streams, and trails throughout the community for you to enjoy.

The property’s convenient location and small-town charm offer a wonderful ambiance and a place to relax and refresh. It provides a perfect escape from the everyday hustle and bustle of the big city crowds.
