Lake Lovers Paradise
This house is amazing. Very comfortable beds , all bedrooms had king beds and two extra full beds in the “basement “. Kitchen well equipped too. Two grills - gas and charcoal. And an outdoor area for fireplace !

Sunset Gateway 1200 Sq Ft Apt w/ Community Dock!
This was our second time staying and we loved it just as much as the first time! We even got to see two deer right outside the deck in the morning. Definitely a great place to stay to support WNC.

Peaceful Lake House Retreat: Swim, Kayaks, SUPs
What a great place. Brought the family for Thanksgiving. Plenty of room for everyone. Saw 4 bucks the day we arrived. We had fires, fished, played games and relaxed. Kitchen is very well stocked. Love the “second” kitchen. It sure helped with Thanksgiving. The whole house is. Thomas is a great host. Don’t hesitate to book. I bet it’s great in the summer.

Quiet Cove Lakefront Relaxation
The property was super clean, cozy and in a great location. Beautiful views of the lake and a private backyard. Interior had all the essentials one might need. Linens were abundant and clean. Bathrooms and kitchen were all upgraded and very nice. Quick drive to the market and a walk across the street for coffee, drinks and food. Also a quick drive to Chinmey Rock. Patrick, the host, was very responsive and always friendly. Definitely recommend. We will be staying here again!

Lakefront Escape • Hot Tub • Stunning views
Great location on Lake Lure. Quick access to the central part of the lake. Inside the house is on the small side but outdoor decks provide plenty of space to spread out. Everything you might need to enjoy your lake stay is provided, including the option for an on-site boat to rent. Parking is tight for larger vehicles - would suggest more compact size cars for easier maneuvering on street/parking area.

Lake Lure Cabin - Rumbling Bald Resort
The home was very comfortable. The kids loved the playroom with all its games and activities. We all loved the fire pit and enjoyed having s’mores in the evenings. The kitchen was very well appointed which was great because we did a lot of cooking. We were also able to take advantage of the amenities at the club. All around a great stay!

Rustic Cabin w/ 2 story dock! 1 mile to downtown
Adorable, vintage fisherman cottage on the lake. We loved this little cabin and it's obvious its owner does, too. The cottage is quaint and small but has been very well thought out from extras in the kitchen, plenty of comfy porch furniture, to space efficient furniture in the rest of the home. We also enjoyed the fantastic outdoor spaces and two SUPs. Finally, although the home sits off (two lane) Memorial Hwy, nights were quiet and we felt the location was worth it for the convenient distance to both restaurants and the Ingles. Additionally, the home sits in a wide cove and provides great views. We just loved the well cared for, vintage lake house vibe. It's well kept, too!

Vintage cottage with Chimney Rock view
Holly’s place is just great and what we were looking for. We were taking a birding trip and our first morning there a hummingbird flew right up to us. In the morning and at the evening around 6 PM, lots and lots of birds flying around in the backyard. We bought a hummingbird feeder and hung it from the porch. There were two hummingbirds that immediately visited the feeder many times each day. We couldn’t have asked for anything better. Plus, Holly has the place so organized and functional to make it easy for her guest.

Waterfront Lake Lure- No Kids! 21 mi to Biltmore
We had a wonderful time at Jennifer’s home. Her parents, Ed and Kay welcomed us and made us feel right at home. They provided wine and delicious snacks for us and also gave us passes to Rumbling Bald. The place is right on the lake and absolutely beautiful. The inside is much more beautiful than in the pictures, as it is tastefully decorated and good quality linens and towels were provided. They had every thing available that we could need, expensive toiletries and plenty of floats and kayaks. I can’t say i’ve ever stayed at an air bnb that was so thoughtfully appointed before. We will definitely be back.

Escape to Tranquil Cabin Retreat
Beautiful location and cottage is in great condition. Enjoyed the lake!

Boulder Lodge at Rumbling Bald Mountain Resort
We had a great stay here! The amenities were wonderful! Our kids loved the pool and the beach at the lake. Lots to do in this area! Jamie was super sweet and very responsive and helpful! She also makes great recommendations! We would definitely stay again!

Rumbling Bald Villa*Cozy Apple Valley Studio
If you’re reading this, just book your reservation. Everything was perfect with my stay. This host is amazing 10/10 ⭐️

Magnolia Place Lake Lure NC
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Linda and Robb were very accommodating. We felt right at home. Robb made some wonderful recommendations about the resort.

Condo in Resort on Lake Lure
We’ve been to Rumbling Bald multiple times and this has been my favorite residence of all! It’s easily accessible, has tons of space, and is well equipped. But the host and her proactiveness and accessibility are what make outstanding. We absolutely loved our time there and hope to make it back again sometime!

2 Bedroom/Mountain and Beach Retreat
We felt very lucky to find this place in a pinch. Our other air bnb that we booked a month+ ago had frozen water pipes. Tamera responded very quickly to our panicked, last minute booking. The place is immaculate. We had everything we needed. We were grateful for our stay here.

Lake Lure Updated Studio!
Cute place for a getaway with 2-4 people. Beautiful deck, small kitchen with what you need for quick cooking, coffee on hand, bathroom nice with what you need, clean and tidy. Loved the convenience to everything to do in the area. Kids loved the pool! I loved the zip line just 15 mins up the road (not included but highly recommend). Very responsive and helpful host. Lake Lure and views are breathtaking.

2BR lakefront home with kayaks & paddleboard
The cabin was great! Just as described with comfortable beds, quality linens, fun outdoor toys that kept the whole family entertained. The kitchen has everything needed for a meal, quality grill, and overall 5 stars and would come back as a family of 4 any time. Thanks for an amazing week at the lake!

Lake Lure Cottage~Pontoon Available 2 Rent!
The Cottage at Lake Lure provided unmatched views and a relaxed and peaceful retreat. Outdoor spaces are beautiful but unfortunately the boat house that was present at the time of booking had been taken down by the time of our stay, reducing the ability to be on the lake. Access to paddleboards and kayaks a plus and the ability to rent a pontoon was a wonderful bonus. Wifi access was spotty and phone service challenging - this provided some challenges to individuals who planned to work a remote day from the booking. Overall a great stay with fire pit, grill, time on the water, and gorgeous scenery.

Mountain views, pets welcome-lake and river access
We loved our stay at Alen and Bethany’s place. It was peaceful and relaxing, just what we needed for a week away. Our little dog enjoyed running around the yard as we relaxed on the patio. We spent the majority of our time just hanging out and spending time in nature.

Cozy Cottage Next to Chimney Rock and Lake Lure
Great location with quick access to Lake Lure and Chimney Rock. Happy with our decision to book this cabin for the week.

Five Oaks Cottage
The Five Oaks Cottage was just what we were looking for to celebrate Michele’s birthday. The cottage was very cozy and everything we needed, and nothing we didn’t need. David and Penny were very accommodating and responsive. There was a great boat house, canoe and kayak for our use, at no additional charge. We felt welcomed and right at home. We bought one of the children’s books David had written, and David signed it and personalized it for our granddaughter. Lake Lure is a magical lake, and we are looking forward to returning one day.

Treetops Cottage, wi-fi, dog friendly, peaceful
We wanted a peaceful, secluded getaway and we found it. Since Helene, there is less to do and see since Morse Park is closed and Chimney Rock Village is closed, but that was actually a blessing. We visited spots we wouldn't have before and spent hours upon hours relaxing on the porch. In addition, the cottage is stocked with all the amenities one would need and more. This is definitely a property we will stay at again!

Lakefront Cottage on Lake Agree
Wonderful getaway for the family! The kids had the adventure we wanted away from the city. We had zero allergy issues, a few of us have allergy and asthma challenges and this home was clean and allergen free for us! We spent most mornings with coffee and either board games or exploring, the days on the lake with the kayaks and canoes, then nights around the fire with burgers and s’mores. Wonderful place for our family of 5. Thank you!

Beautiful 3 Bedroom House on Little Mirror Lake
Lovely, beautiful, peaceful and relaxing with so much room! My little family of 4 could not have been happier here I was so blessed to have came across this place! From canoeing and kayaking to the beach and back, roasting marshmallows by the fire pit, having fun trying to fish while watching all the turtles, to the hot tub and game room we just couldn’t stop running out of things to do and the memories that will last a lifetime! We never even had to leave this beautiful place with bringing groceries on the way there and we sure did not want to leave when it was check out time! From my husband and I to our two beautiful kids we all would highly recommend this place! Brody was such a wonderful host from start to finish always fast to respond with any questions that I may of had! Again would highly recommend this place!!
