"They came to the mountain for the cool clean air and crystal clear waters of the mile long lake. They built turn of the century Victorian "cottages". The cottagers loved the unspoiled beauty and serenity of this peaceful oasis so much that they placed much of the land into the protective stewardship of a Lake Association and Nature Conservancy."

Eagles Mere remains much the same as it did years ago when the pace of life was more peaceful and less stressful. Eagles Mere- "the last unspoiled resort," now waits for you!
