Overlook at Wilderness Trail
This Adirondack custom-designed home, built in 2007, stands as a pinnacle of luxury and craftsmanship. Situated on a 1+ acre plateau at nearly 4,300 feet, it offers breathtaking westward views of the Pisgah National Forest and Tennessee Valley. The home features natural design elements, including rich hardwoods and rough-cut cedar timber framing. Inside, lavish mountain décor, regal furnishings, and impressionist artwork create a rustic yet elegant ambiance. The Great Room, with its grand cathedral ceiling, floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, and tucked-away TV, flows seamlessly into a gourmet kitchen equipped with stainless steel appliances, exquisite granite countertops, and custom cabinetry. The adjacent formal dining area, with expansive ridgeline views, enhances the indoor-outdoor living experience, leading to a covered outdoor space complete with a built-in gas grill and fireplace. The home's two grand master suites feature lofted ceilings, oversized bathrooms, soaking tubs, and stunning views. Two additional guest suites include one that doubles as a game room and a lounge with a private balcony. A loft office space, adorned with rhododendron-themed iron banisters, provides a perfect retreat for remote work. Nestled within a private mountain-top development just ten minutes from downtown Banner Elk, this home offers easy access to the area’s gourmet restaurants, upscale boutiques, and seasonal activities. Nearby towns such as Blowing Rock, Valle Crucis, and Boone, home to Appalachian State University, enhance the area's unique charm and cultural richness, making this property a gateway to sophisticated mountain living.

Reviews
Marla
Overlook at Wilderness Trail in Newland, North Carolina was truly a spectacular rental property. When we arrived, the house was immaculate. From the spacious rooms, fireplace, enormous kitchen, and Mountain View's , The property exceeded our expectations. Our family getaway was magical. We were even fortunate enough to have a little snow in which our 4 yr old granddaughter was able to do some sledding, and it was her very first snow! Anyone staying at the property during the winter months Most definitely should follow the rental companies suggestion on vehicles. It can be quite icy. The kitchen had salt, pepper, sugar, coffee filters. Be sure to bring all of your spices, etc. especially if you are a family who likes to cook, we were so happy that we were totally prepared.. In addition, the beds were quite comfortable. We had a wonderful family getaway ! We highly recommend renting Overlook at Wilderness Trail.

Things you need to know
All properties are set up for light housekeeping, including linens and towels. We provide a starter kit of toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, hand soap, bathroom toiletries, laundry detergent, and garbage bags. It’s enough for one or two nights, but will likely not be enough to get you through your entire stay. If you are staying for an extended length of time, you should plan to bring some supplies from home or plan to purchase these items at a grocery store when you arrive.
Homes are not stocked with cooking oils or spices, hairdryers, condiments, coffee, coffee filters, or food storage items including plastic wrap or foil. Our homes come equipped with a basic set of cookware, sufficient plates & silverware for the occupancy of the home, and basic serving and baking dishes. Most homes do not have unusual items such as crock pots or blenders, so if you’re planning a dish that requires an unusual item it is best to bring that from your home.
We provide one towel and washcloth per person that each respective house accommodates, plus a few extra towels if there is a hot tub. The beds are made up of clean linens (except bunks, sleepers, and futons, but linens are provided on-site). If you routinely use two towels after bathing, you may need to bring some of your own.
