Red Stag Lodge is a spectacular, luxury mountain home in a private setting in the Lodges at Eagles Nest, one of the most desirable and awe-inspiring communities in the mountains of North Carolina. Breathtaking westward sunset views peak through the trees in the winter, overlooking the Blue Ridge Mountains and Pisgah National Forest await you. Ensconced by lavish trees and beautiful landscaping, this multi-million dollar custom built home sets the standard for luxury mountain living. This wonderful property is being offered for the first time on the rental market, having been privately owned since it was built in 2006.

Built of the highest grade natural materials in the age-old tradition of cabin craftsmanship, Red Stag Lodge provides an ambiance of picturesque rustic elegance, while at the same time offering all of the modern amenities of a perfect mountain retreat, including multiple large decks, outdoor fireplace, outdoor hot tub, game room, DirectTV (with NFL package), broadband wireless internet, and custom lighting, in addition to high end furnishings, and rustic mountain décor. Offering four levels of living, it is the perfect place to enjoy a family vacation, reunion, ski vacation, or just to enjoy a few days to get away from it all together with close family and friends. The house comfortably sleeps up to twelve people, offering three king bed sleeping areas, plus a separate bunk room floor with a queen bed plus four built-in bunk beds, together with its own mini-kitchen and living area.

Red Stag Lodge's main floor evokes the warmth and coziness of the true cabin lifestyle, featuring a soaring real stone wood-burning fireplace, walls formed from hand-hewn wood timbers, towering wood beams imported from British Columbia, hardwood floors, and custom-made poplar bark cabinetry. The gourmet kitchen contains all stainless steel appliances, rainforest granite countertops, and high-end cookware. Also on the main floor is the master bedroom suite, which has a king-sized bed and adjoining oversized master bath featuring dual sinks, custom poplar bark cabinetry, walk-in closet, state-of-the-art steam shower, and old-fashioned soaking tub. Overlooking the great room is a beautiful loft featuring two king sleeping areas with a full bath, their own deck, and seating area with built-in desk space.

Walk outside of the main floor to enjoy the fresh mountain air and views while relaxing on the expansive outdoor deck, which features a grand wood-burning real stone fireplace, outdoor bar, large custom-built picnic table, and plenty of rocking chairs. You can grill out on the stone fireplace's built-in grill, or use the separate Holland Grill propane chargrill if you prefer. Step around the corner of Red Stag Lodge's wrap around deck to take a dip in the outdoor Tiger River Spas hot tub.

Just below the main floor is the large game room which features a plethora of entertainment options, including top-of-the-line pool table, ping pong table, air hockey table, dart board, and custom-built rustic poker table, in addition to numerous card and board games, providing fun for all ages. It also boasts its own covered deck, and an additional full bath and a sleeping area with a queen size bed. Below this floor is the bunk room level, complete with a queen bed nestled into its own sleeping nook, four built-in twins (bunk) beds, full bath with dual sinks, its own kitchenette, and tv/game area, featuring both XBox 360 and Nintendo Wii, with several games provided for our guests' use.

Unlike many other mountain homes, Red Stag Lodge has fairly level, paved access, proving much less challenging in winter. In addition, this luxury home is perfectly located to take advantage of all of the activities of North Carolina's High Country, with spectacular mountain scenery everywhere you look. Enjoy the gourmet restaurants and excellent specialty and gourmet boutiques of Banner Elk (less than 5 minutes- 3.5 miles - away), Blowing Rock, Linville, and Boone. Plus, outdoor daytime activities abound, including guided or unguided fly fishing, hiking, canoeing, kayaking, horseback riding, trips to nearby Grandfather Mountain and the Blue Ridge Parkway, as well as white water rafting excursions for the more adventuresome. Red Stag Lodge at Eagles Nest is also ideally located for winter sports, approximately 10 minutes (6.2 miles) to the entrance to Sugar Mountain Resort, and 15 minutes (7.8 miles) to Beech Mountain Resort, both of which offer some of the best skiing on the East Coast. Or enjoy a day of snow tubing at nearby Hawksnest, the largest snow tubing resort on the East Coast - or take a ride on their zip line, which is open all year, weather permitting.
