     This lake is one of the great places here in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Eagles Nest Lake is a rather wet place typically with lots of precipitation; the month with most of the rain is March, and October meanwhile is the driest month. This lake is so wonderful. Go for a hike on the Benton Mackaye Trail, and whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's for you then, we recommend Cooper Creek.
