Luxury Secluded Mountain Retreat, Incredible Long Range View

Remote secluded and luxurious.

Stunning views and a lovely home. Our visit was quiet and relaxing. Randy is very responsive. Thanks again Randy and John for sharing your amazing home! We hope to be back soon. Laura and Michael

The most beautiful cozy vacation rental I have ever stayed! Nothing is left out. NOTHING!!! This a home and not a rental. The View is to die for. Remember you are out a bit... road is a mixture of paved and gravel. We are very glad we drove our jeep..rent this place... but don’t be stay too long no as I will be back!!! Happy New Year!

My husband and I enjoyed 3 wonderful weeks in Randy and Johns lovely mountain retreat. I spent so many wonderful days just curled up on the beautiful deck enjoying the books and magazines and the stunning views The kitchen was well stocked and even inspired me to cook. My husband loved cooking on the grill in the evenings enjoying the fall weather and colors Everything is top quality including the fantastic sheets

The pull of selfishness is trying to drag me toward not telling you what a fabulous rental this is...except I found it online and so should you be able to. This is for adults in that it is beautifully decorated and children under 18 are likely not to appreciate the quality of the home that it deserves. Both bedrooms are lovely and extremely comfortable. The kitchen provides ample elements to make wonderful meals. The living room, dinning room and small library are equally lovely. The view is stunning even in the rain. Just check with me before you rent so that we are going for the same week or I will be forced to send someone to your house to persuade you to look at another date! Really, why go anywhere else? The owners are a pure delight to deal with and go out of their way to help you get on the right road. GPS will work but often wishes to guide you to a road you do not or should not use. Follow the map Randy sends you. We had no trouble with Verizon cell although my sister and her husband on T-mobile did have issues. The TV worked great the one time we used it. This is peace, inside and out with beauty inside and out....oh and a hot tub.

This house was everything we hoped for and more. The owners thought of EVERYTHING! When I mentioned to the owners that we enjoyed hiking, the owners even left us detailed info on some great hikes both from the house as well as in the Banner Elk area. We stayed an entire week and really hated to leave. I could personally just live on the deck overlooking the mountains -- it was like a beautiful painting. Each morning/evening was a different work of art. And the stars you can see at night! Wow. Hot tub was fantastic after an afternoon of hiking. Comfy beds and linens were perfect. And the music -- every song and genre you can think of is available in their library of music. Thank you for helping my family enjoy a great vacation away from it all! We'll definitely be back.

The Owner was very gracious in answering questions questions promptly. The property was as described and very well equipped. The views are truly manificent!!! We hope to return again next year.

Eagles Nest was the perfect place for us to stay. It was beautifully decorated and not too far from other activities we wanted to do. The view as we traveled up the mountain was breath taking with all the beautiful colored leaves on the trees and all the scenery around. After getting to the house there was a beautiful view from the back deck that we enjoyed every morning as we sat, drank coffee, and planned our day. There were days that it rained, but we still enjoyed staying in, watching movies and playing games in the comfort of the home. We definitely will recommend this house to friends or family that may be looking for a place in the Banner Elk area. Thank you to the owners for being so accommodating.

We stayed during the week of 10/10/2012-10/15/2012.The cabin is in a very elevated place on the side of the mountain.The drive there was a little frightfull the first few times.That said,that makes for the most AMAZING ! fall colors scenery anywhere.The home was very accomadating(The home seems to be professionally decorated.)Randy was very professional and any questions were answered very quickly. Thank you Randy, for the most amazing vacation we've had in a long time.P.S. the home is very centrally located to many tourist places.

I had the opportunity to stay at Randy and John's lovely home in Banner Elk. I needed a quite get away to regroup and recharge. I was amazed at the beautiful decor and atmosphere of this lovely home. I loved sitting on the deck while I read and had a glass of wine. The location was perfect. Out far enought to have peace and quite but close enought to get to the main events. The pictures do not give you the full respect for this home. It was very hard to leave. Randy was professional, personable, and had great follow through on the reservation. I can't wait to stay here again!!!! Thank you guys for a great get away!!!
