Create a new tradition this holiday season with the Banner Elk Choose & Cut Christmas Tree Packages.
These packages take advantage of Banner Elk’s location in the NC High Country. The High Country is considered the Christmas Tree Capital for its abundance of tree farms growing high-quality Fraser fir trees. It is common for one of the farms in our region to provide the White House Christmas tree in Washington, D.C.

These choose & cut packages include: one night’s lodging for two (unless otherwise noted) at your choice of accommodations, 10% off dining at Banner Elk Cafe, and a voucher for a 7-foot tall choose & cut Christmas tree at Elk River Evergreens.
Elk River Evergreens is a perennial favorite in the NC mountains with two large tree farms featuring lots of on-site activities and a great variety of trees. Guests are treated to complimentary popcorn, hot chocolate and hot cider as part of the experience.
