Boulder Pod: Rocky Top

Welcome to Rocky Top at the Boulder Park in Eagles Nest - an adventure glamping experience!

What is a Boulder Pod? Situated on over 20 acres of Blue Ridge wilderness Rocky Top is a fully enclosed, one room cedar cabin that is nestled into a rock outcropping of an ancient mountain top with panoramic views of the surrounding mountains. Intended as an adventure glamping experience, it is ideal for an overnight escape, a weekend excursion or a week long retreat. We think you will find Rocky Top along with all that Eagles Nest has to offer is the perfect place to experience glamping at its best in the North Carolina Mountains. 

Where is Rocky Top and how do I get to it? Rocky Top is located about 1.5 miles inside the Eagles Nest development and is accessed by an approximately 100 yard long moderately steep hiking trail.

Hiking boots / trail friendly shoes Hiking staff / trekking poles (optional but can be helpful for some) Flash lights / head lamp for each person Toiletries Charcoal / Charcoal lighter (park style grills are available) Matches / Lighter (for grills and fire pits)
