town sits at 3,739

 Banner Elk is a very
unique mountain town
where many people
choose to own a
summer home or
simply vacation
during various times
of the year. During
the summer months,
the population of
Banner Elk increases
drastically because
of vacationers
trying to escape the
summer heat at one
of our prestigious
NC gated
communities. During
the winter months,
ski and snowboard
enthusiasts travel
from all over the
Southeast to enjoy
the four NC ski
resorts that are
located in or near
Banner Elk. Each
season in Banner Elk
provides for
different outdoor
activities, which
make it an outdoor
devotee’s dream.
With Banner Elk’s
location being in
the Blue Ridge
Mountains, there are
numerous things to
enjoy - even if it
is just a drive on
the Parkway to see
the vibrant fall
foliage the region
is famous for.
In addition to the
outdoor activities
available in Banner
Elk, there are
several other
factors that make
