One of the better VRBO rentals we’ve tried. The view is fantastic, and the accessibility is a big plus for guests with disabilities. The property is well furnished, clean, and luxurious. Fireplace and hot tub are simple and easy to use, as are the other appliances. Check in and check out were easy and effortless. After one minor hiccup, management went above and beyond to make everything right. Highly recommended. Would stay again.

We loved our stay @ Eagles Nest. Everything was as advertised, we saw eagles, our neighbors saw black bears one evening, we were not home. Lots of boaters. We stayed 6 nights and the house is perfect for two couples. Great place to relax and enjoy Gods creations and beautiful mornings and evenings. Would stay here again. Be sure to visit Dales Wheels Through Time in Maggie Valley!

No question this was the best VRBO experience we have ever had. Mike (host), Jay(maintenance), and Kellee (cleaning) make a great team. The Eagle's Nest is exactly as advertised. One of the most spectacular views looking down into Lake Fontana off the back deck. The cabin is elaborately furnished throughout leaving nothing unprovided. Massive rear deck with dining table, hot tub, and plenty of outdoor furniture. Included outside is a fire pit with captain's chairs and charcoal grill. Bathrooms are completely stocked with shampoo, conditioner, and luxurious towels. Kitchen is complete. Finally, both bedrooms have French doors looking out onto the mountains. It is apparent the host team is committed to providing a 5 star ***** experience. Can't wait to visit again!

Thank you so much for the glowing review — I really appreciate you taking the time. I’m glad you enjoyed our house and the view. I don't often get to meet guests personally now, so meeting you and learning a little about your life was a real pleasure for me. Jay and Kellee join me in saying we look forward to welcoming you back whenever you’re ready. mike

We enjoyed our stay in this cabin. It’s cozy, comfortable and quiet. We never tired of the lake view, enjoying the outdoors at both ends of the day. Lots to do in the area. A pontoon rental on Fontana Lake is strongly recommended in season. Bryson City is a great mountain town with great coffee shops in particular.

We had a wonderful stay and views were incredible! Only reason for 4 stars is you can hear everything from other cabins next to you. I specifically asked about privacy. Yes, you can't see your neighbors but you can hear every word they say if out on the decks. Unfortunately we had fighting neighbors for 3 of the nights who loved the F word. Not our place to go over there and say take it inside. We rent private homes to not have to listen to other people. Just wanted people to be aware how close these cabins actually are. If your okay with that, it's really gorgeous view.

Thank you for staying with us and for sharing your thoughts. I’m glad you enjoyed the beautiful view from our cabin—I’m sorry the noise levels impacted your peace and quiet, and we’ll look into ways to improve sound management, but, having said that, just like the hot tub smell, you said nothing until the night before checkout and you said not a word about a noise issue until now, two weeks after the fact. Reading through all your messages, I find no questions about privacy. No, it isn’t your place to ask the neighbor to “take it inside” but it would have been my place to ask them if you had let me know about it. We pride ourselves in proving great stays for our guests but we can’t fix a problem if we don’t know about it. We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back in the future.

View like no other! We arrived in the middle of the night, so were surprised by the gorgeous view in the morning not only do you have that beautiful view from the patio but also from both bedrooms and the living room. Would strongly recommend arriving during the day so that you can see the roads and the driveway. Home was well equipped. The check in and check out process were very easy. The town of Bryson is really cute with shops and restaurants. Would definitely recommend visiting the NOC. Bring the bug spray and may want citronella candles for the patio.

The property was just as described and pictured. The surroundings were super peaceful. Sitting on the deck or soaking in the hot tub and taking in that gorgeous view was therapeutic! The bed was comfortable, and everything was clean. Eagle’s Landing is the middle property of three in a row. You can hear (not what’s being said) the occupants on either side when you’re on the deck, but you can’t see them because there are privacy hedges. I only mention this because I don’t recall if it’s clear in the description. Otherwise there is nothing but nature surrounding the place.

Wonderful stay. Beautiful views. Fragrance free appreciated. In our opinion, hot tub location was less than ideal. We would have preferred chairs and table there. Not a big deal though.
