Bull & Bear at Eagles Nest

Wow!! I truly cannot say enough nice things about our stay at Bear & Bull! The home was beautiful, so cozy and clean, and we absolutely LOVED that it was so dog friendly! My husband and I had a fantastic time during our 10 day trip and the rental company and owner were so great and accommodating if we had any questions or concerns about anything. The home had everything we could need and more. The Eagles Nest community is fantastic and they really make you feel at home. Our trip was during two back-to-back snow storms and while we were a bit nervous, it was absolutely magical! The views from the house were amazing and it was so nice to just sit on the couch every morning and watch the sunrise over the snowy mountains. The roads were cleared very quickly and they even plowed the driveway for us, which was so kind. Our dogs had the absolute best time running from the front door to the end of the driveway and back in the snow. The location of the home felt so private and it was really nice not having other homes stacked on top of each other. We really had the best time and we can’t wait to come back to stay at Bull & Bear in the future!

Thank you for the wonderful review. We're so glad Bear & Bull felt cozy, clean, and dog-friendly, and that the Eagles Nest community and our team were helpful during your stay. It’s great to hear the snow made your trip feel magical, the views were perfect for sunrise, and that the driveway plowing made things easier. We’d love to host you again at Bull & Bear soon. - BRMR

We stayed at Bull and Bear in Eagle's Nest in Banner Elk. It was amazing. Not only was the service from the rental company excellent, but the house and the surroundings were perfect. Bull and Bear is beautifully decorated with comfortable beds and furniture as well as all the amenities, including a hot tub and an indoor and outdoor fireplace. I was able to bring my dog. We walked along gorgeous roads and through trails sometimes without seeing a soul. Yet, a lovely little dog park and a restaurant with a wine bar are less than a 30 minute walk with stunning views of the mountains everywhere you turn. Banner Elk, Boone, and Grandfather mountain are close by. But honestly, I did not want to leave Eagle's Nest. The area is so quiet and peaceful during this late fall time. We woke up to snow one morning. I would highly recommend this beautiful house for a cozy yet elegant family or friend gathering.

We absolutely loved this lovely home! Perfect fit for our small family! We loved the gorgeous long range mountain views that we could see from every room! This home is new. Great floorplan. We loved the 3-on-suite bathrooms for each bedroom! We loved the outside gas logs on the deck! Perfect for watching the Carolina Panthers game. The gas logs in the great room were very nice as well and they were very easy to use! Just one simple "On" button! We loved the outside dining table which was perfect for our family Al fresco dining! What a wonderful way to enjoy our meals with a breathtaking view of the mountains! The hot tub was immaculate! My granddaughter loved it! She also loved the Eagle's Nest playground with the zipline, swings, and rope course! Simple fun in a beautiful setting. We always felt safe. And, having access to some of the Eagle's Nest Amenities was very nice! Like the Epic Chophouse! This restaurant had the most incredible views of the mountains! Just amazing.... BRMR you guys were great! Very responsive to any questions. Professional. We will most definitely book through you all again for our family vacation next fall.
