Blue Ridge Village - From The Family of Festiva Resorts

Banner Elk, North Carolina

A perfect place to get away from the everyday grind, Blue Ridge Village is set in the woods of Banner Elk where you can unwind, relax and breathe in the clean mountain air. Whether you are a hiker, sightseer or shopper, you will have plenty to do around the resort. The scenic backdrop of the Pisgah National Forest is a playground for nature lovers of all types. For skiing enthusiasts, there are several ski slopes just minutes away including Sugar Mountain and Hawksnest Golf & Ski resort.

Hikers can enjoy the breathtaking views from Grandfather Mountain and Blowing Rock. Canoers and kayakers can take a leisurely float down one of the nearby rivers, or can test their skills with level III rapids. If you're looking for local culture, drive on in to Boone, N.C., for a taste of this vibrant college town's nightlife, restaurants and art. No matter how you spend your time in this Western North Carolina retreat, your comfortable villa will be calling you home time and time again.

Our favorite Festiva resort is Blue Ridge Village in Banner Elk, NC. We go there  yearly. We usually spend Christmas there. Thank you for continuing to make it better. The updating there is the best we've seen at any resort, anywhere.
