Historic Log Cabin on Lake Lure
Hurricane Helene Update: Our cabins are in good shape. Our lakefront and first pond have been damaged and are being repaired. The construction at our lakefront to remove sediment from the lake from Hurricane Helene has finished and the lake is deeper than it has been in many years! We are very grateful for the work the Corps of Engineers and their subcontractors have done. The lake is now full pond! 'Jim's Cabin' is a historic very rustic mountain cabin. It has two bedrooms and one bath. Each bedroom has a queen bed and the cabin can accommodate 4 people. The screen porch is furnished for dining and relaxing and also overlooks Lake Lure and the mountains. Jim's cabin is pet friendly. This lakefront cabin is named for Jim Washburn. Jim was Tootsie's husband and he built this cabin in 1947. We are near Chimney Rock, Asheville and The Biltmore House. All our Lake Lure, NC cabins are great for anniversaries, honeymoons, birthdays, or any special occasion. Pine Gables offers canoes, horse shoes, private fishing ponds, and a dock on beautiful Lake Lure. All set in a natural landscape with diverse flora and fauna. Plus, only a short distance away you will find the Lake Lure Beach and Marina, Historic Lake Lure Inn, Restaurants, Chimney Rock State Park, Lake Lure Tour Boats, horseback riding, rock climbing, whitewater rafting, tennis courts, Chimney Rock Village and fly fishing on the Rocky Broad River!

In less than an hour from Pine Gables Cabins you can drive to the historic towns of Rutherfordton, Brevard, Columbus, Tryon, Saluda, Hendersonville, Asheville and the Biltmore House.

Exactly what was advertised. Very clean, rustic, pet friendly, log cabin at Lake Lure with lake access and close to Chimney Rock. Couldn't have asked for a better weekend weatherwise and amenities in cabin. Simple and clean accommodations.
Location was a 10 although no water due to previous devastation. Cabin size was great, very rustic and charming. The cleanliness however needs immediate attention. Spider webs EVERYWHERE! The kitchen area has significant cracks between the wood which is not repaired by concrete, the A/C filter needs to be changed to minimize the musty moldy smell and blowing of allergens thru out the cabin. Overall it was decent and with care can be more utilized.
