About this property

Lakefront Cottage on Lake Lure

Snug Cove cottage is nestled along the shores of Lake Lure in Snug Harbor Cove.

The cottage is two levels, separated into three large bedrooms. The first and second floor both have a full sized bathroom with tub/ shower. The kitchen, living room with large stone fireplace and eating area are all located on the first floor. The cottage has multi-zone heating throughout.

The cottage will sleep up to seven people comfortably.

The modern boathouse located directly on the shores of Lake Lure, offers splendid views of Lake Lure and Snug Harbor Cove. In addition to great views of Lake Lure, the boathouse has plentiful decks and platforms for sunbathing, diving and access to one of the best fishing coves on Lake Lure.

Water sports, hiking, shopping and dining are conveniently located around Lake Lure, a beautiful western North Carolina vacation destination.

Due to the impacts of Hurricane Helene to the region in 2024, please check with the Town of Lake Lure for the latest updates about the condition of the lake and lake access. Use and access to the inside of the boathouse is not allowed (outer deck/dock area and rooftop deck may be used).

Cute cabin on the hill at Lake Lure. Boat house is steps down to the water. Quiet cove with great views from the boat house. Joan the host was most helpful. Just a simple cabin but very homey. If you are going here and want to watch TV, just keep in mind the only TV is in the living room and is not smart or updated. We enjoyed our stay.

Family getaway

Cottage was very clean and comfortable. Location was great near Chimney Rock. We enjoyed sitting at the boathouse and watching sunset. We had to cut our stay short due to a power outage caused by a hurricane, but we still had a great time and plan to come back!

Perfect Lakeside Cottage

My son and I stayed on Snug Cove Cottage for 4 days after Labor Day. The photos on the site do not do it justice. It is rustic and has a great floorplan. The view and boathouse are very nice. My son loved using his paddleboard several times daily. Loved our mini vacation here!

Cozy cabin with all you need.

The cabin was very clean and comfortable and had everything we needed to prepare 3 meals a day. The boat house was easy to get to as compared to some that are down a cliff. It is located in a quiet and peaceful part of the lake and still close to Ingles and tourist shopping. Had a wonderful time.

This was our third stay here and the accommodations were fantastic in every way, but the location and especially the views were even better. Even during a rainy week, there were endless options for entertainment and dining, along with incredible views in every direction. Literally the perfect family spot! Thanks so much for hosting us!

Lake Lure a Hidden Gem

Clean, comfortable and cozy cottage on the lake. Absolutely perfect for Lake Lure and the Village at Chimney Rock State Park. If you like tranquility this private lake experience will deliver. Find a friend with a boat or rent one. The lake tour is worth it.

It was absolutely wonderful. The only problem was, I was confused because in the photo, I couldn't see the cabin that well. Maybe post more pictures of the cabin. Otherwise, it was great and would stay there again.

lake cabin

During our stay the lake had been drained in order to do repairs so we could not take advantage of the lake. The boat house was nice to enjoy evening cocktails. The cabin could have used some more bath and kitchen amenities, especially for those just staying a few days.

Great house, canoe/kayak/SUP available, close to town

This house has everything you need. Great landscape and views. Boathouse has canoe, kayak and SUP as well as a beautiful deck to lounge on. Water was low but still able to enjoy and owner let us know. Close to town and Black Mt/Ashville is a 45ish min drive. Rented in April which is their off season. Not a lot of traffic and lots of places open for business. Would love to stay here again.

Three Days in a Cozy Cottage by the Lake

My family and I had a lovely, peaceful time in this clean, cozy, well-equiprd cottage by the lake. My nephew and two grandnephews are from Belgium so the area around Lake Lure was a new experience for them. They enjoyed the canoe and the available equipment in the boathouse and we rented a motor boat; scooting around the lake was really fun. The owner was approachable and answered all my questions. The kitchen had everything we needed.. Thank you to VRBO and Joan.

Perfect getaway

Joan’s lake house was a perfect long weekend getaway for me and a family member. Direct access to the lake allowed us to be on our paddleboards everyday. They also have two paddleboards, a kayak and a canoe in their boathouse if you don’t have your own equipment. There is an upper deck on top of the boathouse that is so cool to sit on and overlook the lake and surrounding mountains. Their house was clean and had everything we needed. Joan was a super friendly and amazing host and so responsive prior to and during our trip. I highly recommend her place, and when I come back to Lake Lure, I will definitely be renting her place again!
