Property Description

Welcome to Fiddlehead, a 20-acre mountain retreat featuring 2 homes: The Lodge and The Treehouse.  Located just 5 minutes from downtown Banner Elk. The Lodge at Fiddlehead is a rustic log home and The Treehouse at Fiddlehead is an authentic tree top log cabin.  Each are located on a private estate overlooking a barn and pasture, with magnificent mountain views. The Lodge spares no detail and is a one-of-a-kind structure.  The Treehouse was the original model home and inspiration for The Lodges at Eagles Nest - a world-renowned 3,000+ acre resort widely considered the most unique private mountain community in The Blue Ridge Mountains. Dogs are welcome in The Treehouse, but not in The Lodge.
 
The perfect mountain homestead, The Lodge at Fiddlehead features 3 bedrooms (2 king and one queen)/3 baths (one with adjoining twin bed for kids).  There’s an indoor wood-burning fireplace; vaulted rafter ceilings; steam shower with body jets; whirlpool tub, master bedroom on main level with its own living room and stone gas fireplace.  The kitchen opens to the richly decorated living and dining area.  The lower level hosts a media and game room (with a pull-out sofa bed).  There’s a large deck and outdoor dining area, featuring an outdoor fireplace, 6-person hot tub, gas grill and some of the best sunset views Banner Elk has to offer! The home overlooks a lush pasture, barn and fruit trees that make up this one-of-a-kind mountain vacation rental.
 
An ideal fit for families of all shapes and sizes, the Fiddlehead estate comes complete with hiking trails, a lovely stream-fed trout pond perfect for fishing on those lazy summer days, a mountain stream to play in, a sledding and tubing hill for winter fun and plenty of outdoor space everyone can enjoy!  The homes overlook lush pasture, a barn and fruit trees that make up this unique mountain vacation rental. Manicured landscaping and flowers in Spring and Summer, brilliant multi-colored leaves in the Fall, and tranquil snow cover in the Winter are a true pleasure to observe. This picturesque mountain escape features all that the NC High Country has to offer without ever having to leave the property.

In addition to all this wonderful home has to offer, Fiddlehead is a LGBTQ+ friendly haven and has been mindfully crafted to be as eco-friendly and sustainable as possible. 

Fiddlehead offers the peace and seclusion you desire, while still being only minutes from the charming town of Banner Elk, where you'll find a mountain playground like no other. Here, each season brings with it something spectacular. The springtime is ablaze with wildflowers, the summers are cool and inviting, fall's foliage is absolutely stunning, and the snows of winter transform these mountains into a picturesque winter wonderland.  In addition, the nearby towns of Blowing Rock, Valle Crucis and Boone, home to Appalachian State University, add to the unique flavor and sophisticated country charm of the area. Interested in some High Country adventure? Banner Elk is the perfect location for whitewater rafting, ATV mountain tours, mountain expeditions, TWO ski resorts (Beech Mountain and Sugar Mountain), treetop zip lines, mountain bike parks, a white sand beach recreational lake, Elk River Falls, and fly fishing.
