The Refuge - Eagles Nest masterpiece with hot tub, game table, indoor and outdoor fireplaces

Enjoy your mountain getaway in luxury! Perched near the top, half way between Great Camp and Camp Eagles Nest, The Refuge at Eagles Nest is sure to make an unforgettable retreat with both sunrise and set views. It's reclaimed red oak wood floors, gourmet kitchen, spacious vaulted ceilings, custom bar, magnificent bedrooms and baths, and unbeatable long range views truly make this cabin shine. Located at over 4500 feet, you'll be able to beat the heat the summer brings while also being just a short drive from down town Banner Elk and all the winter sports offered by both Beech (under 15 minutes to arrive at Beech) and Sugar Mountains.


Relax in front of the beautiful stone fire where you're sure to enjoy a nice gas log fireplace on the main floor. With a wide open concept, you'll be able to stay connected with your guests as you prepare wonderful meals on the Wolf Gas Range in the Gourmet Kitchen.


The Refuge offers 5 bedrooms. A main level master suite provides guests with a king-sized bed and on suite bathroom. You'll love the double vanities, tiled shower, and beautiful hammered copper bath. The lower level provides an additional bedroom with a king bed and a private bath. The three final rooms are located on the upper level. Here you will find a queen bedroom, a king bedroom, and a bunk room with 2 separate twin-over-full bunkbeds (sleeping for 6 guests). Each bedroom is equipped with a Smart TV for guest use.


Whether you're enjoying the the outdoor gas fireplace while you marvel in the amazing far mountain view or you are enjoying the game room on the lower level with ping pong and the custom bar just a few feet away, The Refuge at Eagles Nest will be the perfect fit for any luxury escape. The lower level features a second gas log fireplace and TV, as well. The lower deck has a newly installed hot tub.

The house was in good shape and as advertised. Lots of room for the people. Lack of maintenance was definitely an issue that negatively impacted our stay. TV was unable to connect to the Internet, gas grill didn’t work and external fireplace was not active.

March Madness Annual Trip

The property was great. We had a few issues though. The basement sliding doors would not lock. The outside fireplace would not light. It took a day for the management to answer the email. But, it was a phone call to management that said it does not work and a text from another individual that gave us the instructions. Then the next day someone showed up to the home to help us. The outdoor TV never worked. We could not get it to connect to the internet. We were only there for 3 full days to watch basketball and we chose this property because of the outdoor fireplace and TV. A little disappointing. Suggest having instruction for the TV and fireplace for future guests.

A True Refuge

Wonderful property with long range views and colorful sunsets. The hot tub is located in a wonderful spot right off the downstairs playroom complete with fireplace, bar and ping pong. Main floor just off the kitchen is a fabulous outdoor fireplace to enjoy cocktail and conversation with friends.

Spacious, cozy, lots of entertainment

The house is spacious and cozy at the same time. We had an amazing time and loved the different floors and the spacious kids bedroom, which accommodated our teens really well. Several fireplaces around the house, smart TVs and game rooms were awesome additions
