Welcome to Laurel Creek Lodge, your new favorite mountain getaway spot! 

Enter the home with just a few steps on the beautifully maintained rock path from the parking  area. Inside you'll immediately feel at home in the mountains due to the tasteful decor, huge wall of windows, and vaulted ceilings. Relax in leather furniture around the woodburning fireplace and catch your favorite shows, and the folks preparing meals don't have to miss out on the conversation thanks to the open layout! The kitchen offers beautiful granite counters, stainless steel appliances, a live edge wooden bar, and several stools, and the dining table seats 6. 

Downstairs is an amazing entertainment room that's sure to be a hit with all ages! Play countless games of pool, watch all your favorite movies, and have fun. There is also a full bath on this level. Step outside to the firepit just outside the house, or enjoy smores in the second firepit down by the creek! Oh yes, the creek at the bottom of the hill is guaranteed to be a favorite of everyone in your group, with its peaceful sounds and splashing fun. And just down the street is the neighborhood catch & release fishing pond.

Time for bed? Laurel Creek Lodge offers 4 bedrooms. On the main level you'll find a King master bedroom with attached bathroom, as well as a Queen bedroom with a second nearby bathroom. Upstairs is a loft area and on either side of the loft you'll find a bedroom with two twin beds. Dual zones for the main level and the upper level allow you to all stay comfortable in any weather.

On the main level deck, have a seat in any of the many selections of outdoor furniture and relax in the peaceful woods. During the warmer months you're sure to hear lots of bird songs. You might even spot a squirrel or a deer in the trees! On the lower level patio, relax and enjoy the brand new (fall 2021) Bullfrog Spas hot tub!

Clean and comfy. Starter kits provided for everything. Slept 8 comfortably. Great yard for the dog to run. Hot tub was a great finish to a day of skiing. Both mountains less than 30 min away. May only be a few miles but the windy roads stretch it. Roads plowed except for the last 50 yards before we needed the 4wheel. Great stay.

Everything was just as it showed in the photos on VRBO. We had a magnificent stay at Laurel Creek. It was quiet, relaxing, and cool. The paths were not as prominent as the photos but I'm sure that was due to Hurricane Helene. The owners were very communicative and helpful. The area was beautiful and the temperatures fantastic for us Floridians (High 77 and low 60) during July. Thanks for a wonderful trip!

The home was beautiful and in a perfect location. We did have a few minor issues with a smoke alarm and the heating unit but the response time from the property manager was great! They took care of the situations and quickly as possible. Would definitely stay again.

What a great place to get away from it all! House was very comfortable and well equipped. Perfect mix between being away from it all/off the grid and yet still close to downtown banner elk for any essentials or a meal out. Would definitely Recommend!

This is a wonderful property for families with children. My grandkids loved playing in the creek, hanging out in the hot tub, playing the games that were provided....that's just to name a few of the things they enjoyed. The management team was extremely quick in addressing any needs or concerns that we had during our stay. We loved every minute of our vacation.

The house was very nice and had everything we needed. It is a little far from town on windy roads but it was very peaceful. The pool table and arcade game got a lot of use by the family. We saw deer every morning by the creek. The neighborhood fishing pond only has Koi in it so no fishing is available without driving somewhere.

What an amazing place to spend time with the family and friends away from technologies and reconnect with nature. The moment we arrived the kids were gone exploring the near by area, the creek and the trail were a bit difficult to get to but the kid had no issues. The house was cleaned, with enough towels and with plenty of kitchen must have! the beds were very comfortable. We loved finishing the day around the fire pit and cook some smore, make sure to bring fire starter!!! As I read before in other reviews, the driveway in front of the cabin is pretty steep but we backed in all the time and had no issues getting out of it! We loved to be away from the crowd and this cabin checked every box, make sure to get from the local grocery everything you need before heading home as it is pretty far away from the town. Overall I would love to go back, we had a wonderful time!
- Francesca, Posted: 08/24/2023
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this home. Everything was perfect! Well equipped, plenty of room, and great deck and yard! The creek and trail in the back was a nice bonus. Very cozy with enough room for everyone to spread out. Will definitely be back! Thank you for allowing our family to stay at your home.

Really loved the location. It was perfect. My family had an amazing time and are now planning on doing this each year. This location was everything we wanted and it snowed our last day. It was hard to get out of the steep driveway but boat let us stay will the snow slowed down enough to dig ourselves out and get out.

We had a wonderful time at this cabin for a New Year Holiday family vacation, it is very well maintained cabin with very good appliances. Bedrooms, living rooms and bathrooms are very nice. Definitely highly recommended for a family trip. We were very lucky to get snow at the time of our trip, the kids love it and play for 2 days with it :) A + !

Rented the cabin for the weekend for my girlfriends birthday and invited a couple friends as well. We had a great time! Our favorite thing about the place was definitely the hot tub but the beds were also great. Got some of the best sleep of my life in the master bed, the sheets and pillows were super comfortable.

The Cabin was amazing!The property had everything you needed. We hiked in the back yard, explored the creek, walked to the pond, played pool and pac man! The drive way is steep and you have to navigate it carefully. The kitchen was fully stocked with utensils, they had toilet paper, towels and soaps available. It was a great investment for our family vacation. We slept 7 comfortably and had 10 people in the house at one time. It rained a lot but the games kept us occupied. 4 twin beds, 2 fold out twin futons, a queen and king bed 2 huge couches in the game room. Plenty of room. There is always things you think could be better, a big trash can down stairs, lots of hanging out happening there. A bathroom upstairs, but what can be done about that. 1 bathroom is in the master on the main floor , second bathroom is on main floor, that is where everyone goes and one down in the basement, all with showers. All in all GREAT!

Property was super clean, well appointed, and nestled in a beautiful spot on the mountain. The home is about 15min from town, but the drive is very easy. Check in was simple, and the Blue Ridge staff were friendly, helpful and wonderful. Definitely recommend the rental agency (we've used them previously) and the property.

Our family absolutely loved the home and the property. The home was super clean, well-stocked and there was plenty of room for our family of 6. The beds were comfortable and the view was pretty. The home was in a great location and my children loved exploring the property, trail and creek behind the home (and the video game table in the loft!). The house was everything we could've hoped for and more and we look forward to staying at this home again!

Great stay! Well-appointed! Great appliances, comfortable beds. Very clean! Just a charming, lovely place. It is brand new! Located near the top of a mountain with lots of turns on the roads. Recommendation...try to avoid arriving after dark if you don't know the roads. Once you drive it once during daylight, it is a much easier drive up the mountain. Kids' rooms were perfect (1 room with 2 twins on one side of the loft area and another room on the other side of the loft with two twins). The kids loved the old school arcade game with PacMan and Galaga in the loft. Wonderful Master Suite with King on the main level and an extremely comfortable Queen in the other bedroom. The basement is lovely with a pool table, bar, and big screen TV. Great place for kids to escape. Would definitely book again when in Banner Elk.

We stayed at Laurel Creek Lodge and found it absolutely fabulous. It was the total mountain experience we were looking for. The location is very pastoral & private and the setting is gorgeous. The house itself is fabulous. Looks to be brand new and was furnished with everything our family of 8 needed. The beds were very comfortable and all the linens and towels were first class. The three levels made it perfect for three generations. The kids loved the Pac-Man video game in the loft but spent most of their time downstairs playing pool and hanging out playing other games in the large rec room. The kitchen was well outfitted with every cooking tool we needed. While we were there, there was a big snow storm so we loved hiking the trails around the property. We truly felt like we were in a winter wonder land. And we are already planning a return visit.
