This is a really dynamic, high-energy community that is a true year-round destination for families. It is a great location, down the road from Banner Elk, with great restaurants, and it’s close to the ski slopes.”

I looked at dozens of communities over the course of five or six years, and none of them offered such a dynamic and versatile outdoor lifestyle as Eagles Nest. There’s so much to do here . . . I mean, they thought of everything!”

We took advantage of an Eagles Nest Discovery Event and knew that it was the place for us. We had an instant sense of community and belonging. The property is beautiful, well maintained and has all the amenities you could ever want . . . you honestly never have to leave once on-site.”
