About this property
The Cabin on Eagles Nest
Discover the magic of the Smokies in this hand built, rustic log cabin perched on Eagle's Nest Mountain high above the quaint town of Waynesville. Enjoy our beautiful four and a half acre mountainside setting with pond, stream, seasonal gardens and mature hardwoods.
The cabin, with its perfect location in a cozy, secluded setting, sleeps up to 4 people. Downstairs, the master suite has a King bed, roomy closet and attached bathroom with Jacuzzi tub/shower. Upstairs, the open loft has one Queen bed and one Full bed and bathroom with shower. Relax inside by the stone, wood-burning fireplace or outside in a rocking chair on the wrap-around porch. Additional amenities include a fully-equipped kitchen, wi-fi internet, TV/DVD, CD player/stereo with speakers in the main room, master bedroom and front porch. The addition of a fire pit behind the cabin adds further opportunity to relax.
Waynesville has long been known for its picturesque small-town charm. You will find friendly people, great shops, restaurants and tree-shaded benches to sit on and rest a spell. In season, ole ‘timey street dances and annual festivals fill the little town with excitement, but with none of the hassle of crowds and honky-tonk typical of “tourist traps.”
There is so much to do while you’re here. Explore the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, Pisgah National Forest or the Biltmore Estate. Ride and hike the Blue Ridge Parkway. Golf down the road at Laurel Ridge Country Club, raft the Nantahala, ski Catalouchee, ride horseback…or simply kick back and watch the traffic at the bird feeders.

The cabin was absolutely ideal! It was spotless, well-equipped, and communication with the host was excellent. Our favorite part was the peaceful location, along with the beautiful mountain views and night sky.
The cabin was beautiful in ways that the photos do not do justice to. While being cozy, it never felt too small, and had everything we needed for a restful and refreshing mountain weekend. We loved the relative seclusion while being close to town for groceries and all the options for hiking nearby, and the host included some thoughtful touches. The huge front porch got a ton of use from us, and since it was early spring, we got the bonus of a Mountain View through the trees.
Perfect cabin for Christmas week. Everything you need, nice and clean, great responsive Host, loved charming Waynesville. Highly recommend. Great for sweethearts.
Everything about this stay exceeded our expectations! The cabin photos are great - it is even better in person Pleasantly surprised to find privacy in wooded location and a charming grassy knoll (room to play frisbee with our border collie) with babbling stream in a local that we found convenient to great restaurants, charming mountain towns and National park. Comfy bed, idyllic fireplace- So clean we kept thinking the cabin was brand new. Owner was SUPERcalifragilisticexpialidocious responsive and informative. The guest book signed by many on their 2nd or 3rd visits back says it all!!
Met our expectations. Great place to stay with an isolated back to nature feel - but only 2-3 miles from necessities and in easy range of the attractions of the Smokies.
Great place, convenient to everything you need , will be back

About the host
Hosted by Bill Trufant
I was raised in New Orleans, where I still live, and attended summer camp in Western North Carolina. My wife and I purchased The Cabin on Eagles Nest along with our second residence in 2001 and we love spending as much time as possible in the mountains.
Why they chose this property
We love Waynesville and its friendly people and we are only 30 minutes from downtown Asheville.
What makes this property unique
We have a large garden, available for our guests to wander and enjoy, that keeps us busy when we are in the mountains. After gardening, it's time to relax and travel Western North Carolina. We especially enjoy sunsets at Water Rock Knob on the Blue Ridge Parkway just 15 minutes away.
