Erica Frazier of Blue Ridge Mountain Rentals came up from Charlotte in 2017 for what was supposed to be one summer at Eagles Nest – and never left. She now helps oversee a portfolio of more than 700 High Country homes, and in this conversation she gets refreshingly candid about what short-term rental ownership around Banner Elk actually looks like.

If you own a place up here or you're thinking about it, this one's worth a listen.
