Banner Elk/Sugar Mountain Near Boone, NC | |
About 15 miles from Boone, NC are the towns of Sugar Mountain, Banner Elk and about 5 miles more Beech Mountain. We live 5 months a year in Retirement at Sugar Top Resort, a 320 unit Condo Complex at 5200\' elevation with a spectacular view of Grandfather Mountain. Swell place to keep cool in our retirement flight from our South Alabama heat (residents & owners mostly Florida refugees) was 50 degrees this am 7/25/19 on out patio! Local towns up here compete for retirement $ with free concerts and activities especially in Summer. I will send along some Sunrise pictures from today which are great! | |
