Brand-New in the Great Camp Section — and Yes, the UTVs Come With It

Most new homes ask you to spend your first weekend unpacking boxes. This one hands you the keys to two Polaris side-by-sides instead. Tucked into the Great Camp section of The Lodges at Eagles Nest, this just-finished custom build comes with a RZR and an Xpedition — ready to point you straight at the miles of UTV trails winding through the community. We’ll be honest: that’s not a detail you see on many listings around here, and it’s a genuinely fun way to start mountain life in Banner Elk.

Wheels Contracting built this one, and it’s never been lived in. Step through the front door and the first thing you’ll notice is the floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace anchoring the room — the kind of feature that makes a High Country winter feel like the whole point. The interiors were professionally designed to land somewhere between rustic and refined: warm color palettes, rich textures, and big windows that do the heavy lifting of framing the views for you.

Inside the House

The layout is open-concept, so the kitchen, living, and dining areas all flow together — which is exactly what you want when the family’s in town or the trail crew comes back hungry. The kitchen is built for people who actually cook: high-end appliances, custom cabinetry, premium countertops, and a dedicated dining area with room to gather.

Upstairs and down, there’s space for everyone. Four bedrooms, five baths, a game room for the after-dinner rematch, and a three-car garage (you’ve got those Polaris vehicles to think about now). When the day’s done, the deck off the back has a private hot tub waiting — and after a few hours on the community trails, you’ll understand why that’s the best seat in the house. Bonus points if there’s snow falling.

Just Down the Road

Location does a lot of the work here. You’re only minutes from the Great Camp amenities, which read more like a small resort town than an HOA: The Epic Chophouse for dinner, an outdoor amphitheater, mini-golf, sports fields, volleyball, pickleball, a playground, and hiking trails that don’t seem to end. There’s even a 24/7 Dollar General for the things you forgot — and around here, that kind of convenience is no small thing.

It’s the Banner Elk balance we love: tucked-away mountain quiet on one side, plenty to do on the other, with Beech and Sugar Mountain a short drive away when ski season rolls in.

A Place That’s Ready When You Are

Whether you’re looking for a full-time home, a getaway that’s packed and ready every season, or an investment that does the work for you, this one’s turnkey — furnished, finished, and waiting. The hard part (building it, designing it, even buying the toys) is already done.

Come see it in person, take the trails for a spin, and picture an evening in that hot tub with the mountains going quiet around you. We have a feeling it won’t take much convincing.
