We ABSOLUTELY LOVED The Flying Eagle. What an experience. The architecture is incredible. We could have stayed at the house the entire week. Eagles Nest was wonderful. We hiked within Eagles Nest everyday. We saw deers and a bear. The Dollar Store was very convenient, self-serve and open all day. What a wonderful experience we had. We will return. Thank you

Amazing views, amazing stay at The Flying Eagle
We had an incredible stay at The Flying Eagle! The pictures online are breathtaking but the in person experience was even better. The majority of our group never left the house! All we encountered with BRMR were extremely helpful. We definitely look forward to future stays and would highly recommend The Flying Eagle as well as BRMR.

The Flying Eagle is — hands down — one of the finest properties you'll find anywhere in the North Carolina mountains, not just Eagles Nest. Few homes take your breath away upon entry like the Flying Eagle. A full panoramic vista of the beautiful mountains greets you immediately upon opening the front door. It's almost embarrassing how much time I spent sitting in a chair, just soaking in the view! The house doesn't end with the view; it's perfectly set up for multiple families with large bedrooms, a game room, and a couple outdoor entertaining areas. The kitchen is spacious and better equipped than most of the other mountain properties I've rented. We also loved the location, close to both Great Camp and the North Pavilion.

We had a full house - 7 adults and 1 child - while staying at the Flying Eagle. And we all had plenty of room to spread out. It is the most fantastic home with amazing views. I have used this company before and the attention to detail is evident. I will continue to stay with this company when booking vacations in Banner Elk and surrounding areas. I highly recommend!!!

A serene place
This was one of our best in state vacation. The home was in excellent condition. It was decorated for the Christmas Holiday and the kids loved it. It was so peaceful. The view was out of this world. It was such a beautiful sight and experience. The owners thought of everything. The kitchen was fully furnished, items were there to aid in washing clothes etc. We danced and had a great time. There are speakers in the ceiling in which you can connect to and listen to the music. I would highly suggest that you make sure to get there before night fall b/c it's extremely foggy and nearly impossible to see the road. The house is high on the mountain. Also get all you can get ( food, and personal need- wise) while you are out.. You definitely do not want to be traveling that narrow/ curvy road. Also it's not much around. It's not a tourism town. This is a definitely a great place if you are looking to escape and work on something or self. We loved it.

Flying Eagle
The “Flying Eagle” is INCREDIBLE from the second you open the front door…. Huge expanses of glass overlooking fantastic views for mile upon mile. The massive rear deck overlooking the cliff is relaxing as well as beautiful. There are so many wonderful things to comment about. The luxury of the home is impeccably uncompromising. The host spared absolutely no expense on construction. TOP rated! The floors, fireplaces hot tub, pool table and furnishings, are tasteful and UNBEATABLE ! The MASSIVE beams make this home like no other. The mountaintop location is ideal for panoramic views on all sides and the owners took full advantage of the views by choosing a floor plan with multiple decks on multiple levels. We booked a year in advance to take advantage of the Astounding Banner Elk fall foliage. We were so glad we did! Thank you to Blue Ridge Mountain Rentals and the owners if The Flying Eagle.

The Flying Eagle was a beautiful home with the most picturesque views of the Smokey mountains. Floor to ceiling windows with mountains as far as the eye could see on all sides of the home. We will definitely be staying here again.

Most spectacular views, stay, and memories!
We wanted a spectacular home for our week long stay, as we got married in Banner Elk this past weekend, and my goodness — this place did not disappoint. There were a few issues with the steps going to the lower level and the property management group was there VERY promptly to fix the issue and check everything else before leaving. Blue ridge rentals is amazing and we will not only be visiting banner elk annually, but we will always book with blue ridge rentals. I have a ridiculous amount of people asking for info on this cabin. It's the most spectacular place we have ever stayed in, and we made memories that will last a lifetime!!

Amazing views
We've rented several homes in Eagles Nest. You can't beat the views, the trails, the seclusion - or the magnificent homes. We watched the Flying Eagle as it was built and were eager to rent because of the floor to ceiling windows and top of the mountain views. Our stay did not disappoint! We often rent through Blue Ridge Mountain Rentals because they are easy peasy to rent from and make the process seamless. Can't wait to book our next trip - though its easier to go through the blueridgerentals.com site directly.

Magnificent Mountaintop Home
Unsurpassed luxury mountain home with exquisite features from expansive crystal clear glass panels between huge tree trunk pillars, to comfortable upscale furnishings. This home has it all...beauty, amenities you will love (hot tub, sauna, pool table, stereo system throughout the home, back-lit gorgeous granite countertops, smart TV's, a well appointed kitchen) and views, views, views! And Eagles Nest is an expensive mountainside luxury development with numerous hiking trails, winery, boulder climbing park, off road ATV trails, sports fields, play parks, etc. You can sequester in this home and never desire to leave Eagles Nest property!

Incredible Home with Incredible Views
We are used to staying at 5 star hotels. This home is 6 star! The views are insane. The home has every modern amenity you can think of. Hot tub, sauna, pool table, multiple fire places. Access to Netflix, Hulu. The beds are so comfortable. The kitchen has it all Kurig, every cooking accessory. We had a family of 6, but could easily sleep 12. In short we could not recommend this property any more highly.
