About this property

Wheelchair Accessible "Eagles Nest" Vacation Home Newly Remodeled Bryson City NC

"Eagle’s Nest" is a 2 Bedroom/2 Full Bathroom, Wheelchair Accessible, chemical Fragrance Free and Medical Medium friendly! Newly Remodeled with brand new solid hickory hardwood flooring, soft close solid oak kitchen cabinets, white quartz kitchen counters, new bathroom tile and shower floor in master, built in wardrobes, fresh No VOC paint throughout, a new driftwood wreath and 2 new paintings.

This is a 1,562 (including decks) sq ft cabin for rent on 12 acres that overlooks Fontana Lake and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. This land is bordered by 600 acres of the Nantahala National Forest. Lake access and pontoon rentals are available just a few short minutes from the cabin.

Eagle’s Nest was designed and built by local artists and craftsmen with great attention to every detail. This is brand new construction with thoughtful furnishings that include one-of-a-kind artwork, decor and handmade furniture crafted by the owners. Be at peace knowing these homes are completely free of any toxic fragrances or chemical cleaners. There are no air fresheners, plug ins, scented candles, incense, commercial laundry soaps or fabric softeners. We wash all of the linens, shower curtains, bath mats etc. in house to insure they are cleaned without any toxic commercial soaps, stain removers, or bleach. We use non toxic cleaning supplies like Unscented Seventh Generation, BonAmi, BioKleen, peroxide, vinegar, and baking soda. This entire 12 acre property has NEVER been sprayed with pesticide. We are aware of how these toxic commercial fragrances have a burning effect on the nerves, can perpetuate a weakened immune system, deplete the nervous system, and cause several other chronic health symptoms. Rejoice in knowing that inside our homes and outside in the surrounding hundreds of acres of National Forest, clean air and oxygen are absorbed with every breath.

Voted one of the "Top Ten Outdoor Towns in the East" by Outdoor Magazine, one of the Smithsonian's "20 Best Small Towns to Visit", "One of 8 Small Towns Near Stunning Nature" by Orbitz, and Trip Advisor ranked Bryson City as "The #1 Beautiful Little Mountain Town in America!" Southern Living featured Eagle's Nest on the cover of an article titled, "8 Secluded Southern Stays Where the Views Don't Get Any Better!"
Discover what’s great about Bryson City, a peaceful mountain town bordering the Great Smoky Mountains National Park with unique shops, galleries, lodging and restaurants. Surrounding our small town, there’s a rich vacation paradise — rafting and kayaking on the Nantahala River, boating and fishing on Fontana Lake, scenic railroad excursions, world class trout streams and mountain biking on the famous Tsali trails. We have creeks for tubing, trails for hiking, horseback riding, and beautiful waterfalls. We’re home to the Cherokee Indian Reservation and the North Carolina half of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. ..and we’re close - just an hour west of Asheville NC and 3 hours north of Atlanta GA.

Mountain top getaway

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay; so peaceful and quiet. We hit some really cold and windy weather and couldn’t be outside as much as we’d liked. But the property was found to be exactly as advertised. As everyone has commented, the views were fantastic and we enjoyed the outdoor firepit and decks. And celebrated an early Thanksgiving there.

Beautiful View!!

We have stayed in Eagle's Nest a few times now and each time has been excellent. Shannon and Michelle are easy to communicate with and very accommodating. The beds are very comfortable. And the view from the back of the cabin cannot be described as to how beautiful it is! Words do not do it justice, it must be seen to truly be appreciated. We are amazed each time we stay here and look forward to returning soon!

Tranquility and peace

My wife and I decided that we wanted to spend our 19th wedding anniversary in the mountains with some friends. We came across this beautiful picturesque mountain view while searching on VRBO and decided to stay here because it had all of the accommodations we needed. We are so glad that we chose this place! We had a great time with our friends! If you are looking for a place to unwind and get away from the busyness of everyday life this is the right place to stay. The view is awe inspiring and serene. Would definitely recommend this cozy getaway.

Relaxing time away

If you’re looking for a getaway that provides a setting to spend time relaxing and reflecting on the beautiful things life offers while taking a break from the daily routines that so often tend to not include that, then this one fits into that category! This has become one of our favorite properties that we’ve stayed and will be added as a return location when visiting the mountains. Our appreciation goes to the owners for opening up your property so that we could share such a peaceful view and beautiful home!

About the host

Hosted by Michelle and Shannon

Host profile image
My husband and I purchased 12 acres of land in 2013 surrounded by the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and the Nantahala National Forest. Little did we know (for the thick pine saplings) that we had a Million Dollar View of a Horseshoe Bend on Fontana Lake and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park! It took viewing Google Maps to see what a gem we had found. We moved to Bryson City after selling our home and printing business in Fletcher NC (close to Asheville). My husband grew up in Bryson City, and I fell in love with this "Gateway to the Smokies" town when we built a house boat at Almond Boat Park in 2013, that now floats on Fontana Lake. We started building Eagle's Nest soon after starting the build of Eagle's Landing (our first completed cabin) in Nov 2014 with the help of some great friends and a very talented builder. This is a completely different lifestyle than we're used to, and we are incredibly Grateful for all the Love, Support, and Divine Miracles that We have been Blessed with along the way. Now we're ready to share Eagle's Nest with you!

Why they chose this property

There's a Peace here that we've never felt before. This place is awe - inspiring. It almost forces you to stop in your tracks every time you look outside. We built Eagle's Nest to give our guests the feeling they were floating on water...and sometimes in clouds. From the Living Room and both Bedrooms there are French Doors that open out onto a 728 sq ft (partially covered) deck that extends out over top of Fontana Lake. From the theatrical morning sunrise to the day's last light, and on a clear night you can see the Milky Way, the show this magical place performs is ever changing and always jaw dropping.

What makes this property unique

We designed and built 'Eagle's Nest' to accommodate anyone. This cabin is wheelchair accessible with a sidewalk and wheelchair ramp. The large master bedroom and master bathroom include enough space to turn a wheelchair within a 5 foot radius. Without much extra time and materials, we've tried to create a thoughtful home, keeping everyone in mind.
We call this cabin Eagle's Nest because Bald Eagles are always near by the cabin. They can be seen flying close to the cabin's deck, playing in the air at eye level, and even diving into the lake after a fish. This year (2025) we witnessed the eagles building a nest on the Hickory Flats Peninsula. This is the closest part of the park projecting out into the lake. Now you can see them year round coming and going from this peninsula! This is an unforgettable experience.
