In Italian, Capodimonte means "The top of the mountain." Nestled between the Balsam and the Alarka Mountain Ranges and located just outside Dillsboro, NC on top of Piney Mountain, Eagle's Nest at Capodimonte offers you quiet, secluded comfort, and breathtaking, unbelievable views of the Great Smoky Mountains. Fully paved access gets you to the chalet.  The views can be enjoyed from your deck or from inside the apartment through a 26 foot wall of glass.

Around the corner you'll find Maggie Valley, Waynesville, and Cherokee, NC.

What Our Visitors Have to Say

I can't begin to say enough good things about Eagle's Nest at Capodimonte. The accommodations, the view and the hospitality far exceeded our expectations. Eagle Two was absolutely immaculate, as were the grounds and gardens. It was so peaceful and relaxing that we didn't want to come back to the "real world". I would highly recommend Eagles Nest to everyone I know! It simply can't be beat! We will be returning as soon as time permits.

Just spent a week at the Eagle's Perch Studio. Fabulous!!!!! The views, the accommodations, the quiet...I could go on and on. We definitely wouldn't consider staying anywhere else now that we have found Heaven. My many thanks to Pat and Ron for making such a wonderful retreat and sharing it with the world.
