Pictures don’t do this place justice!

This was our first trip to Lake Lure and the Alluring Lake House did not disappoint! The house was perfect for three couples. I can not say enough positive things. Everything was so clean, the kitchen was fully equipped, and the pool table was a great bonus. The outdoor space is incredible! We were in such a beautiful and quiet cove. Most of our time was spent outside on the dock where there was ample seating and plenty of shade to retreat to midday. The boathouse was fully equipped with plenty of floats, two very nice paddle boards, and a kayak. We will for sure be back!

Lizza, Thank you for the fantastic review and we have since updated the photos for the property. We agree, the initial "place-holder" photos did not do the home justice and are so happy you were pleasantly surprised when you arrived. We're honored we had the opportunity to host your group for your 1st visit to Lake Lure. We hope to see you again at the Alluring Lake Cottage. Thank you.

The house was perfect for our family of 9. The kids loved the paddleboards and the high dive. We are glad we brought along our lifejackets and floats for hanging out in the lake. There is a sandy entry which was perfect for the littles. When we arrived, the A/C wasn't working correctly, but they had it fixed the next day. The only thing I would suggest to the homeowner: please have the boat house (top and bottom) sprayed for wasps. We sprayed 2 nests while we were there. A word of caution: There are at least 50 steps from the parking area to the house and no handrails. This is stated in the description of the house though. We were extremely happy that there were no steps from the bottom floor of the house to the top of boat dock and only 10 steps or so to the bottom of the boat house. The kitchen is extremely well stocked!!! Plenty of plates, bowls, silverware, pots, etc.We rented a boat through Yonder and highly recommend renting though them. The boat was delivered to our house early and picked up the next morning. We had the best time exploring the lake.

Ideal Lake getaway

The property was just as presented. Very spacious and easily accommodated two air mattresses. Our boys loved the pool table and it added value to family and meal time. Easy to find something for everyone to enjoy on the property. The nearby grocery store was large and had everything we needed. We would stay here again.

Stairs in all the Right Places

This was a great house with gorgeous views. The 50+ stairs from the car to the house were a little daunting at first (note no hand rail), but we all agreed better from the car to the house than the house to the lake! Once in, everything was just right there... Mountain views (fall foliage!), stargazing, wildlife (visits from geese, ducks, beaver, herons...) all just magical.

We Can't Wait To Return!

Alluring Lake Cottage is an absolutely beautiful house and wonderful location. The cottage is light and bright with gorgeous views of the lake from both levels. The beds are extremely comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked and provided everything that we needed for our 3 nights of gourmet meals and fun! I love the artwork/photography and the attention paid to design details. We spent most of our time outside on the deck and in the water. The paddle boards provided hours of entertainment! We loved every minute of our brief stay! We will have to plan for a longer trip next time!!!

Nice get away!

My husband and I stayed at the Alluring Lake Cottage for a weekend get away. It has a beautiful view of the mountains and is nicely located to shops and dining. Overall we were happy with our stay at Lake Lure. The property could use a little maintenance and house-keeping needs to do a better job. There were several lights that did not work (bulbs may be blown), I found dirty utensils in the drawer and hair from previous occupant on the shower wall. There were a few other small things but I am still giving 4 stars because I feel that even with the minor issues, it is an beautiful vacation home and the view is spectacular!

Perfect Relaxing Getaway

We really enjoyed our stay here. It was picturesque being right on the water with paddleboards and a kayak that we used to their fullest. We would definitely stay again. The internet connection is really bad but we were grateful for that as the kids stayed in the lake most of the time.
