Welcome to Beagle's Rest, your dog-friendly haven in the beautiful, gated community of Eagles Nest in Banner Elk.
The Story Behind The Name
Our home Beagle's Rest was named after our sweet beagle Hunter. He loved coming to explore the mountains so much that when we chose to build our home, we knew we had to honor him. As of Summer 2024, Hunter is no longer with us in person but his sweet spirit lives on, and we hope you fall in love with the mountains and feel his sense of adventure just as much as he did. A photo of Hunter is included in our slideshow.

As you approach the vacation rental, you'll be captivated by its charming exterior, featuring a mix of modern and rustic elements that seamlessly blend into the natural surroundings. The house boasts multiple decks on the backside, providing plenty of space for outdoor relaxation and enjoyment. In the winter, a seasonal view of the sunsets will open up! Guests are given access to the attached two-car garage, plus there is a large, flat parking area in front.
Upon entering the home, you'll step into a bright and open living area with high ceilings and large windows that flood the space with natural light.

It features three sets of twin over twin bunk beds and a playful decor theme. The game room is an entertainment paradise with a air hockey, shuffleboard, arcade, board games, and a seating area for movies or TV.
Step outside onto the lower deck, and you'll discover a relaxing hot tub with seating for everyone. Unwind in the bubbling waters while taking in the beauty of the natural surroundings. Throughout the home, you'll find modern amenities such as high-speed Wi-Fi, central heating and cooling, a laundry room, and ample parking.
Whether you're looking to relax in the king suite, enjoy the company of friends and family in the living area, cook out on the Rectec Bullseye Deluxe pellet grill (bring your own pellets), or have a blast in the game room and hot tub, Beagle's Rest offers the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable vacation.
