Welcome to Running Waters Lodge, a private mountain retreat ideally located less than a mile from the main gate of The Lodges at Eagles Nest. Offering the perfect combination of convenience and seclusion, this 3-bedroom, 4.5-bath home features 3,449 square feet of living space on 2.73 wooded acres, surrounded by the peaceful sounds of a mountain creek. Adirondack and Craftsman influences blend beautifully throughout the home, beginning with a distinctive exterior of logs and Appalachian poplar bark. Inside, hand-peeled white pine logs, heart-of-pine walls and distressed hardwood floors create a warm and inviting mountain atmosphere. The spacious great room is anchored by a striking stone gas fireplace, while the kitchen features granite countertops, a copper sink and island seating. The main-level primary suite offers its own stone gas fireplace and whirlpool tub, while upstairs, two guest suites and an open loft provide plenty of room for family and guests. The finished lower level expands the living space with a game room and additional bonus sleeping area, and a two-car basement garage provides plenty of room for vehicles, storage and mountain gear. A whole-home generator provides power to the entire cabin, and the UTV conveys with the property, making it easy to take advantage of the community's extensive trail system. Outside, covered and open wraparound decks invite you to relax, soak in the hot tub and enjoy the sounds of the creek flowing alongside the property. Within The Lodges at Eagles Nest, owners enjoy an impressive collection of amenities including Epic Chophouse, hiking and ATV trails, fitness facilities, pickleball, tennis, river access, trout waters and more. With the main gate less than a mile away, Running Waters Lodge offers the rare combination of easy access to Banner Elk, privacy, rushing water and classic mountain character.
