Who We Are: Eagle’s Nest Camp is located on 200 acres of wooded land in the lush mountains of Western North Carolina just southwest of Asheville and down the road from Pisgah National Forest. Eagle’s Nest provides a joyful, inclusive community where campers finishing kindergarten - 11 th grade are treated with respect and compassion. Campers have the opportunity to participate in 1-3 week long sessions that emphasize nature, arts, and community living while taking visual and performing arts, athletic, and outdoor classes. Eagle’s Nest is an independent non-profit organization. We also host an outdoor adventure program for teens, giving them the opportunity to spend two - three weeks backpacking, rock climbing, and white water canoeing in North Carolina, across the country, and internationally.

Our summer staff teach classes every day in areas reflecting their expertise and interests. We also offer classes including, but not limited to, Arts and Crafts, Backpacking, Whitewater Canoeing, Rock Climbing, Athletics, Swimming, Music, and Drama. Riding staff live in cabins with campers and provide guidance, supervision, and fun for our campers. The Riding Director lives in staff housing.

Once we receive it you'll be invited to schedule a Zoom interview and informational chat with Paige Lester-Niles, the Camp Director, and with other members of the camp leadership staff.
