Great home and location!- Jami, Posted: 04/26/2024
Solstice House was the perfect mix of cozy and luxurious. Perfect for our family of 5, our 3 young children loved the room over the garage and the nooks and crannies in the upstairs bedrooms. Mom and dad loved the warm and artsy decor, the outdoor living, hot tub, cozy fireplace, all the space for the kids to run and play outside without worrying about falling off a mountain since the lot was nice and flat! This is going to become our family's go to house when we come to banner elk each year!- Kiah, Posted: 04/07/2024
Great spot, working hot tub, close to town. King bedroom features a couples’ shower (two showerheads) and heated flooring! Great cozy home.- Guilherme, Posted: 01/16/2024
We had a wonderful time skiing and snowboarding on Beech Mountain while staying at the Solstice House. The house was as described, if not better. The hot tub was a wonderful way to end the day after mountain fun. The house is perfectly located in the cute and quaint town of Banner Elk. This is a family friendly House and we had a wonderful time there. It was warm and inviting.- Laura, Posted: 01/03/2024

Overall great stay!! Don't hesitate to book!- Alison, Posted: 08/03/2023
Great location very close to Banner Elk. Nice, large house with big yard and peaceful setting. We enjoyed seeing all the deer around the property. Hot tub, big patio, and covered front porch were all very nice for summer time visit. Would also be a great stay for winter if you want to avoid having to drive any steep winding roads.- Ashley, Posted: 08/03/2023
Wonderful home and perfect for a weekend visit to Lees-McRae. The host are very responsive and when we asked for a late check out they gave us more time than we even needed. We will be back!- Deb, Posted: 06/26/2023
The accommodations were comfortable, cozy and beautifully done. I felt the love and care that had been poured into setting up this lovely vacation home. I can't wait for my next trip and I can't recommend this place enough.- Gloria, Posted: 05/08/2023
I was a guest at this beauty tucked away in Banner Elk for a long girls' weekend. The location was perfect, and the house was comfortable and inviting. It had a large, well-equipped kitchen and a bright sitting area off the kitchen where we were able to make great memories. The hot tub was a delightful addition, too. Thanks Solstice House - I will be back!- Lori, Posted: 03/23/2023
