House was perfect for our trip. Nestled a short walk from the lake was fantastic. Will definitely be back.

We absolutely loved our stay! The house was spotless, beautifully decorated, and perfect for our family. It truly had everything we needed and felt so welcoming from the moment we arrived. The owners were wonderful and even checked in to make sure we were enjoying our stay. They also left a sweet birthday sign for me, which was such a thoughtful and personal touch! You can tell they really care about their guests and the experience they provide. We absolutely plan to stay here again and highly recommend it!

The home was clean and had all the basic necessities covered. Family-friendly for sure! The upstairs spiral staircase was super cool for my older boys and the bunk house would be great if we had more kids with us. Close to main strip and chimney rock entrance.

Wow! What an amazing stay! We spent three nights at this home and we were impressed well before our arrival. The owners were extremely friendly and communicative from the moment we booked. Instructions were clear, photos were accurate, and we felt welcomed. The resort is gated and offered close access to the lake. Just a short ride from town gave easy access to restaurants and Chimney Rock. Everything you need was provided in the house making the stay so convenient. We will be staying here again in the future.PS- clean is an understatement. The home was in top tier condition.

I cannot say enough about how amazing this place is! Truly an escape from the busyness of everyday life and a breathtaking view from the top of God’s beautiful countryside. You just have to see it with your own eyes; this place is absolutely stunning and well thought out. Even the rain couldn’t ruin our time there - it actually made it more peaceful and magical to hear the sound of the water pattering down on the trees and the rooftops. The drive was steep and winding but no problem with a V8 engine and 4WD (kinda fun really, even in the dark). We will definitely be back again, I can’t wait!

We stayed for two nights with 5 teens on our way from Ohio to the Outer Banks. We had a great time relaxing in nature in the mountains. Went on a nice hike, spent time in Chimney Rock and Lake Lure. The house was perfect for our group with everyone in their own space and the patio was lovely. Nick was so helpful and caring. We will definitely be back!

This house is so nice. It doesn’t feel like a short term rental. Details are next level, no cheap shortcuts. Very clean - Not even a spec of dirt or smudged fingerprint anywhere. The design is beautiful. The owners thought of so many little details, even a little welcome note! The community is also beautiful and has so many unique amenities. We enjoyed lake swimming and a walk down to the waterfall. There is also a gym and creek that we didn’t get a chance to check out. The owners are amazing to work with. We actually had a medical emergency while staying and they were so gracious and flexible with us logistically and seemed genuinely concerned for our situation and well being. I highly recommend!

We had an excellent stay with Nick and Courtney that made for a great July 4th weekend. The house was beautiful and very guest-friendly. Our hosts did a great job with even the smallest touches like having the ice full and ready to go on a hot day. We would love to come back next time we're in Lake Lure!
