Hi! We’re Juan & Liz and our family has a passion for adventure. Juan and I have frequented the mountains since we started dating back in 2010 and now our kids join in for the fun. We fell in love with Banner Elk after we went to our first Woolly Worm Festival (October). Having a home in Banner Elk is a dream for us and we hope you love the home and area as much as we do.
