Located in Banner Elk, this welcoming cottage lets you experience it all. Jump into your car and make short work of the 6-minute drive to Beech Mountain Resort or the 9-minute drive to Buckeye Recreational Center (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime).

After you return, you can unwind by the outdoor pool or sip a drink on the balcony; you may also like the BBQ grill. As for the great indoors, you can come inside and enjoy the free WiFi and TV.

A living room, a fireplace, air conditioning, and a ceiling fan are featured at this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom rental. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a dishwasher, as well as an ice maker, a microwave, and cookware. And there's a dryer, so you can even pack a bit lighter.
