MOUNTAIN TOP RETREAT - STUNNING VIEWS! Hot tub, secluded, family friendly, 5BR!

Located on SIX ACRES near the very top of a mountain.... at the end of a private road... surrounded by National Forest!

This beautiful vacation spot offers long-range and seemingly endless views from two levels of balconies and it borders the National Forest for miles of hiking trails. With abundant wildlife, a million-dollar kitchen, spacious common living areas, a living room, and plenty of sleeping quarters, this vacation destination is sure to please.

Featuring 5 Bedrooms and 3 Bathrooms, this lovely 2-story vacation home accommodates 12 people comfortably with its 2,800 s.f. of living space with lots of balcony, porch, and open deck space.

There is a new 6-person hot tub outside, overlooking the mountains, that is available for an extra $50 cleaning and usage fee. Please let us know when booking if you would like to use this added amenity.

Located near the historic cities of Clayton, GA and Franklin, NC... this setting is perfect for those seeking hiking, fishing, zip lining, rafting, sightseeing,, or just a great setting for family gatherings or reunions.

With beautiful foliage and colors during the seasons, and mild and pleasant weather for most of the year, this location is ideal for those that desire the mountain top, country living... without the sub-freezing weather and high-altitude challenges.

Nestled at exactly 3,000 ft elevation, and overlooking 2,200 ft valleys, the 800-foot vistas are amazingly beautiful all year round.

Experience the Smokey Mountains as the clouds hover below you, and enjoy the peaceful and quiet solitude of the acreage around you.

This property is perfect for almost all getaways... and it awaits you!

Spacious home with amazing views!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Eagle’s Nest. The house is very spacious and the double balconies provide for spectacular views. The hot tub was perfect for the Fall weather. The hosts were responsive and were very accommodating with our requests. Will definitely be staying here again!

Mountain Top Retreat was a beautiful place to stay. We had a wonderful time with our children and their spouses. House was clean, up to date and lots of space. We really enjoyed playing games, eating meals and just relaxing on the screened in porch. The view was amazing!

Fantastic stay!
The home was exactly as described and more. Very open and comfortable with everything well organized. I have stayed in many VRBO homes and this may have been the best. It is definitely on top of the mountain but the roads were good and we had no problems getting up there. The views were gorgeous and the screened in porch was a great place to hang out. I would definitely stay again

Wonderful Mountain Stay
Seven of us stayed at this VRBO for a long girls weekend/reunion at the end of May and we had such a wonderful time. The views are beautiful and so incredible in the morning looking down on the clouds in the valley below. The kitchen is absolutely huge and well stocked. The beds are super comfortable. One thing we didn’t realize when booking is that there is no central AC, however with the freestanding AC units in most of the rooms and fans we were completely comfortable all weekend. Although with such beautiful views and mountain breezes we spent much of the weekend on the wonderful screened in porch. Initially I was concerned about the parking situation but the owners recently paved the driveway to the house making parking really easy. A state park is nearby so we enjoyed a little hiking. Thank you Jenny and Joe for sharing your wonderful vacation home with us. It was such a blessing to our group.

The property was beautiful and we loved how private and quiet it was. It was clean and had everything we needed. We didn’t stay that long so we didn’t really cook in the kitchen but I would have loved to cook in that kitchen. If we ever come back to the area we would absolutely love to stay again.

Fall Mountain Trip 2023
What a wonderful and relaxing 5 day trip to the north Georgia mountains. We were 3 couples who spent the time exploring the area, shopping and dining. We ate out at lunch and grilled out and enjoyed the view in the evenings. We enjoyed the large kitchen, the comfortable TV area, hot tub, and of course, the amazing overlook. We took day trips to the Foxfire museum, Black Rock Mountain State Park, Highlands, and 12 Spies Vineyards.

We really enjoyed the huge kitchen & dining room, in fact, we spent the majority of our time hanging out at the dining room table. The patio was fantastic as well with the fire pit and the hot tub. Highly recommend.

What a great place! The pictures do not do it justice in the least. The view is the best we’ve ever seen. Everything is well appointed and you don’t even need to leave the property to have a great time. Our dog Lenny love the cabin too. We enjoyed every moment.

Great Spot - Views, Host, Great Cabin
10 of us spend 3 days enjoying the gorgeous mountain views, the back porch, games, the hot tub, and especially the kitchen. We planned on dining out for most of the trip but the kitchen was spacious we wound up cooking much more than planned. Joe was super responsive with questions and the a lot of care was clearly put into ensuring guests get the most out of the property and the surrounding area. Great choice!

Fantastic week at Eagles Nest
The home was amazing with awesome views! The home was spacious and well stocked with the basic essentials. The instructions for the house were clear and precise and communication with the owner was easy and quick. The trip up the mountain was not difficult even with some rain…most of the way up the mountain is paved. We look forward to another stay at Eagles Nest!

Such a Fun Stay!
We LOVED our visit to Eagle's Nest! Our whole family came along (young adult kids ages 23, 21, 20 & 18) plus my husband's mom. Everyone had a blast! The house is really large and very accommodating and comfortable for a group with lots of bedrooms, beds and lots of areas to hang out. The screened-in porch is lovely and probably where we spend most of our time just visiting with one another, playing games, etc. The kitchen is huge! Lots of space to cook and tons of cabinets. The overall home is clean, inviting and just lovely. And Rabun Gap is a fantastic area with lots to do - hiking, cute nearby towns and restaurants if you'd like to eat out. We even saw bears outside the home... Nothing scary just real life nature at its best. Overall a 5-star rating. Thank you for giving our family this opportunity to vacation together!
