INTERNET ~ GAS LOG FIREPLACE ~ LARGE PORCH ~ LAKE ACCESS CLOSE BY

​​#NeedToBreathe cabin​ sits on a hilltop among an array of tall trees in a gated community located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains and just minutes from ​Chimney ​Rock State Park. A mix of retro, modern, and Scandinavian,​​ the living room is quite spacious and a nice place for social gatherings. ​There is ​comfortable space in the kitchen and dining area as well. You will enjoy the large fireplace in the living room and the wooded yet pleasant view offered by the kitchen/dining area and living room.

A highlight of the home is that it boasts four tastefully decorated themed bedrooms, and there is a bathroom between bedrooms one and two and bedrooms three and four, so the layout is great. The back deck is extremely comfortable and nearly perfect. A nature lovers paradise, you're likely to see deer, foxes, and sometimes even bears! You can hear the waterfall inside the resort clearly, and there is also a small yet enjoyable lake view in the fall/winter. Even in the fall/winter, the decks here are quiet and private, so you will definitely notice the privacy​​in the summer.

Clever words of wisdom are placed tastefully throughout the home. All hard surface flooring will give you that super clean feel no matter how long you stay. Overall, the extremely tastefully decorated #NeedToBreathe is sure to be a favorite for your annual vacation to Lake Lure. It's an older home that has been well-maintained and creatively updated.

As a unique camp-house experience, the washer and dryer are located in the lower level garage and accessible through a separate door from the exterior of the home.

The propane grill is on the back porch, where there are two chairs, a table for hors d'oeuvres​ ​or drinks, and a relatively flat and private backyard. There is easy parking for three vehicles, but depending on your vehicle size, 4 would likely fit. Located in the quiet yet fun community, Lake Lure Village Resort​ offers a private marina at only a 5-10 minute walk from #NeedToBreath.

This home is 3.3 miles to the Beach at Lake Lure, 3.4 miles to Chimney Rock State Park, and 21.7 miles to the Tryon International Equestrian Center (TIEC).

AREA WIDE NOTIEC: Lake Lure will undergo a drawdown from January 1st, 2024, through the first quarter of 2024(March 31st). The lake will begin to be lowered by approximately 1 foot per day until 12 feet have been reached. Infrastructure maintenance, dredging, and dam projects will be expedited during this time frame. These efforts by the Town of Lake Lure may affect access to the lake and restrict any lake usage. For more information, click here. The lake will likely be back up to normal levels by mid to late April. While we understand this is an inconvenience, this does allow you to enjoy the full beauty of Lake Lure in the fall and holiday season. This will not affect the smaller lakes in the area, only Lake Lure itself.

My winter stay at Lake Lure.
Renting this property was very easy. The Directions led me straight to the home. We had to call property management because the heat went out, but they got someone out as soon as possible. The cleanliness of the home however could’ve been a little better. It was supposed to be a zero tolerance pet policy, However, we clearly saw that there was pet hair all over the living room couch. I’m not a big fan of animals so it was quite upsetting to see. Overall, it was an okay rental.

Our long weekend in the woods
First off, the photos do not do this property justice. The home is more beautiful than the photos indicate. Something we really enjoyed about the home was the layout. You enter into a big, open kitchen-living room, and there are two bedrooms with a Jack & Jill bedroom separating each on both sides. We found this to be absolutely great for traveling with family. Being that the leaves had fallen from the trees, we had a peak of a lake view which was another pleasant surprise! We’ve lost count of how many times we’ve visited the area but have never stayed on this side of the lake. There are numerous restaurants within 10-15 to choose from; the new smokehouse in Chimney Rock was our favorite. Highland Kitchen and Bar is a little bit further but another repeat favorite of ours. Highly recommend both if you’re looking to dine out. Ingles (grocery store) is about 15 minutes away which was helpful when we needed a pharmacy. Now, some things we didn’t enjoy. We pulled up to the community realizing we needed a gate code to enter but hadn’t been provided one; I looked back through all my emails and couldn’t locate it anywhere, only the front door code. We got lucky and a friendly resident helped us and even showed us where the house was. The community was wonderful, everyone we encountered was extremely friendly, though a bit off the beaten track. On Thanksgiving morning, we woke up to the oven not working when we tried to make breakfast. Later that day, we found a chunk of broken glass on the rug by the couch which could have done some damage to someone’s feet. Everything appeared to be clean but it made you wonder.

Really enjoyed the house and it was a relaxing getaway from the hustle and bustle of the day-to-day. I would definitely recommend checking out this place if you're looking for a nice, relaxing, quiet getaway in the mountains.
