Clouds Rest- luxury pet friendly home in Eagles Nest with hot tub, year round views, and more

Clouds Rest at Eagles Nest is a gorgeous, custom-built home with year long views over the Elk River Valley.

There is parking for the entire group at Clouds Rest, with a flat gravel parking area and two bays of the garage for guests to use. Three steps to enter provide easy access to the main floor. Enter the front door and you'll immediately see the gorgeous views through the large windows along the open concept great room. To the right is a beautiful kitchen with Cafe stainless steel appliances, custom cabinets, Flexbrew coffee for grounds or k-cups, and granite countertops. The island seats four, and the dining table comfortably seats up to 14. Tongue and groove ceilings house the built in Sonos speakers for the 75" tv over the gas log fireplace. Leather sofas and chairs give you a place to sit and relax.

On the main level are two Master King suites. To the left is a master king with deck access. The tiled shower is zero-entry for accessibility with an overhead rain shower plus a handheld wand and grab bars. There is also a large soaking tub and double granite vanity. To the left, near the garage entrance, is the second Master King, also with deck access. It has a large tiled shower with zero-entry access and grab bars, a built in bench, and the same overhead rain shower plus a handheld wand. Across the hall is the laundry center, complete with a sink and counters.

Downstairs is the entertainment room. There is a kitchen with a full sized fridge, sink, and wine cooler. For entertainment, there is a pool table, a game table and a closet full of games. The second fireplace and another 75" TV with Sonos soundbar are here. To the left is a Master Queen with deck access, a tiled shower with a six inch lip, and double granite vanity. To the right are the fourth and fifth bedrooms, and a Jack and Jill bathroom between the two with a tub/shower combination and a double granite vanity. To the left side is the queen bedroom, and to the right is the bunk room. Two sets of built in bunk beds each with a trundle means there are six full sized beds here. Little ones can also discover the nook in the back of the closet. The bunk room also has a 49" cable TV, Sonos speakers, and a DVD player.

If you like to experience the fresh air, there are two levels of decks. The top floor has a second eating area with a Weber grill and outdoor dining table for 12 (please note the Green Egg seen in the background of a few photos is not available to guests). The wood-burning fireplace has a sectional around it for chilly nights. The lower deck has a magnificent 8 person hot tub, a high top table, and a second wood-burning fireplace.

Clouds Rest
The house is beautiful. Clean, amazing views, and modern amenities. Our issues: we asked if possible for early check in, knowing that the house was vacant for a few days prior to arrival. Hoping for maybe 3pm. We were told it wasn’t possible and would receive our code for the house before 4pm. No code. Sat outside in the rain at 4:30 calling for code. Someone just forgot to send. Ok, not a great start but mistakes happen. Code to get into the community gate. On our arrival, we didn’t need it, thankfully because the gate was open and being serviced. However, the gate code they sent was completely wrong, According to security, the code given was not a code they recognized and we had to be buzzed in by him each time. The house is pretty high up in the community, so if you want easy access to town or to the slopes, this might be an issue. Get your supplies before heading up because once you’re there, you’re not going to want to come down for something you forgot at the store. Also know that there is construction around with new homes being built next door. Other than those management glitches and the distance, the house itself is beautiful with great views. P.S. the owners note on the firewood was condescending but amusing. Don’t worry we brought our own.

Great Property, Ok Accommodations.
The house is amazing, and top quality for a rental. “Sleeping 20” is a bit of a stretch considering the bulk of the arrangements expect you to put 12 in one room and 2 to every single bed in the place. Don’t get me wrong, the bunk room is a great set-up but again a lot more hostile like than accommodating. Ideal for a family and a village full of kids, but certainly not ideal for adults. We had a party of 15 and thought we’d great but 15 grown men found ourselves limited for sleeping accommodations in a “sleeps 20” set up. Again great property, but perhaps a little more clarity on the sleeping set-up should be considered. Thank you!

Best Sunset Views!
Beautiful property with two huge outdoor decks equipped with outdoor furniture and a hot tub makes this super for large group gatherings…and THE BEST sunset views! Great sound system inside easily hooks to your music apps too! We have no idea how you’d sleep 20 people in this house, as stated. The bunk room does use full size mattresses, so it could work to sleep 8 in this small room, if you had a bunch of young kids. Still not sure how you’d sleep the other 12 to make 20. I travel with large groups and like to know this beforehand. I hope this helps a large group prepare accordingly. Eagle’s Nest Mountain is the best place to stay! They offer so many activities- hiking, playground, mini golf, archery, outdoor concerts, wildlife, etc. it’s just dreamy! I enjoyed the easy access to the mountain amenities yet quiet, private location.

Beautiful home in a beautiful location
The house and amenities at Eagles Nest are amazing! The house was very clean and the layout and open spaces were perfect for hosting a dinner for the Lees-McRae swim team and our sons’ college graduation. The view of the mountains and gorgeous sunsets from the deck were the ultimate backdrop for so many photos!. Thank you for sharing your home!

Better than I could have imagined!
I have nothing but great things to say about the house, property, amenities and management team. This place was absolutely beautiful, clean, quiet and relaxing. It has everything you need and more. The description does not do justice to how much space is available. The bunks are double beds, the kitchen is fully stocked with appliances, keurig and regular coffee makers, 2 full size refrigerators and freezers, plenty of blankets, hot tub towels, movies, board games, air play on TV, bluetooth speakers.

What an amazing home and community. This home is located perfectly with great sunset views. We traveled with four families from all ages and had a great time. The home was clean with many upgrades such as the Sonos home theatre system with speakers located throughout the home. The kids enjoyed the hot tub and the adults enjoyed the views. We didn't even leave the resort in four days. The amenities of Eagles Nest are endless. I highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a great vacation.

Cabin is super clean, new, and comfortable
There was no problem with renting the house. Customer service was very good. The house feels safe. The planning of the house is just genius. The views from the balconies you would have to just see for yourself. The house is super clean, and new seems like the house was just recently built. The fireplaces and hot tub were easy to use. The kitchen had everything you would need. Kitchen, living, and dining rooms were very spacious. The beds, linen, towels were included and were washed and clean. All the TVs were big and modern. The chimneys and fireplaces created a warm and comfortable atmosphere. The neighborhood is safe and clean. The driveway is big enough to fit about 15 cars. Overall it didn’t feel like we ever left home. If God let’s we would rent this house again.

Expect to be impressed at Clouds Rest
First class home with extra touches like Sonos sound throughout the home that you can enjoy from your phone. The kids can sled at the bottom of the hill in the backyard for hours. The kitchen allowed for unlimited food storage and overflow in the lower level bar area too, with a wine fridge too. The bunker room for the 10 kids we hosted was magical and perfect for our little ones, and parents too! Ha. Great communication via the VRBO app with the management team especially when we needed maintenance on a Saturday to help troubleshoot an amenity. We will be repeat customers of this VRBO! Do not forget to maximize your time in the hot tub on the lower level especially when watching a snow storm. Truly an amazing place!
