Worth the trouble
This place is outstanding. Very roomy, clean and comfy. The view was outstanding. Check-in/out is a bit of a process but the condo and the view make up for it! Will definitely be returning.

Limited Seating /Comfort
Lovely view. Amenities excellent. Seating for adults very limited. Could not accommodate 6 adults comfortably. Providing seat cushions for more than 2 on the patio would have been a super plus.

Absolutely Wonderful
We have been coming up to Echota on the Ridge for about 5 years now. We absolutely love it, and our stay this year was exceptionally comfortable. We already booked for next year with this same property. Foscoe Rentals is always a pleasure to deal with and we are grateful always for a terrific stay!

Great Thanksgiving week with family
Property was perfect for our needs. The 3 bedrooms and 3 adjoining bathrooms met our needs. The view was spectacular. The condo was at ground level so bringing in luggage was a breeze. Would stay here again.

Wonderful view
Clean property with 3 ensuite bedrooms (perfect arrangement for our needs) and a fabulous view that we enjoyed from the balcony each morning. For our work trip, it was less expensive than getting three rooms at a hotel and much more comfortable with the full kitchen, dining room table to sit around, and den with fireplace and TV. All the necessities are there. Be sure to bring your own coffee or K-cups, hair dryer, and toiletries, as those things, as expected, are not included. I would definitely stay again and recommend it to others.

Beautiful views and great location!
Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The views from the unit were gorgeous. It was nice not to have to use the stairs or elevator either since it was an entry level unit. There were some unexpected extras like hand soaps in the master bath, spices in the kitchen, and plenty of tissues and toilet paper. The kitchen had everything we needed to make several meals. We checked out the amenities offered by Echota, but didn’t take advantage of them. The outdoor pool would be really nice in the summer. The indoor pool looked outdated and the fitness centers were small. We will rent this unit in the future for our family.

Our family of 5 spent spring break in this gorgeous setting. Our view was breath taking and our accommodations were fantastic. The staff was extremely nice and helpful. We had a lot of fun doing local activities such as gem mining, hiking to see beautiful waterfalls and much more!

Gorgeous views and immaculate home
When you walked into this unit, you are immediately aware that it has been taken care of. The view off the deck is gorgeous, the kitchen items are exactly what you would have back home, and each bedroom is tastefully decorated. The condo complex is pristine and well manicured. We would return in a heartbeat!

Weekend get away
The condo was beautiful and the visit was great. the gas logs did not work and a call to the office did not resolve the issue. Suggest a lock higher on the door, we had a toddler with us and he knows how to open doors so we constantly had to monitor the front door. a great family trip and would stay again.

Beautiful condo with exceptional view!
The condo was beautiful and in a great location. We were just there for two nights but enjoyed the pool and the exceptional view! Location was great in between Boone and Banner Elk. Would definitely stay there again. Already talking about when we can go back.
