Conveniently located in the Village of Sugar Mountain, Elk Horn Lodge is your home away from home when you visit the mountains! Walking in, you'll be welcomed by a view of the mountains and ski slopes through the living room's cathedral window wall. With an amazing view and a gas log fireplace, this could easily become your favorite room in the house. Cozy up with a good book, watch a show on the flat screen over the mantle, or enjoy the company of the other guests in the abundant seating while gathered around the fire. Open concept at its best, the living room flows right into the kitchen and dining areas. With seating for twelve, the dining and high top tables offer flexibility while accommodating even the largest of groups. Or enjoy the sunset on the deck while you cook dinner on the gas or charcoal grill and dine al fresco at the large outdoor dining table. The rest of the upstairs has three board-and batten style bedrooms and two full baths (one en suite to the master with a custom, walk-in shower). Heading to the lower level, you'll find an additional two bedrooms and two full baths. There's also a second kitchen, ski gear storage area, theater room with a 65” flat screen (bring your game system!), and dedicated billiards room with an 8-foot Olhausen table. Imagine shooting pool here with a fire crackling in the lower level fireplace, a football game on the room's wall mounted TV, and a view of Gunther's Way ski slope through the double sliding doors! And getting here is a breeze. Once you reach the entrance to Sugar Mountain Resort, there are paved roads all the way to the driveway, which leads to multiple parking areas around the house. Since the driveway is gravel, bringing an AWD or 4WD vehicle in the snowy months is recommended. The house has level entry access to the main level. With so many comforts it would be easy to spend all your time at Elk Horn Lodge! But if you decide to leave the house, the area offers many amazing restaurants, shops and attractions. Within Sugar Mountain, enjoy golf, tennis, hiking and downhill mountain biking (on the slopes!) during the warmer months and skiing, snow boarding, tubing and ice skating in the winter. From the entrance to Sugar Mountain, you're just one minute to the new Alpine coaster, 5 minutes to downtown Banner Elk or 15 minutes to the entrances of Grandfather Mountain or the Blue Ridge Parkway. Blowing Rock, Boone and Linville are just a few minutes further. ADDITIONAL NOTES: - All BRMR homes offer well stocked kitchens with all utensils needed to cook meals.
