Cozy Retreat

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The owners promptly responded to all our emails before and during the stay. The property is decorated to reflect a mountain lake lifestyle. The kitchen was well equipped, and a sufficient amount of linens were available. Coffee on the deck in the mornings was a delight! We plan to book this property again.

This cabin is adorable. It’s just like living in Grammas house. Well stocked with everything we needed. Only minor issue was the TV reception. Keep in mind it rained the whole time we were there. Reception was difficult. It was harder on my husband than me. Would love to stay sometime in future!

This is a great place for a quiet relaxing stay. It is a quick 10 minute drive to the main town or the grocery store. The cabin was well-maintained and has all the amenities you would need in a home rental. The owner communicated quickly with me about check-in and was available if anything came up. There are a lot of outdoor activities near this place and I would recommend this stay to anyone who likes the outdoors. The only minor issue is that the satellite tv was fairly hit or miss when we were home but we were not there to watch tv so for us it wasn't an issue. Would defintley return to this cabin!

Nice family cabin time in Lake Lure Nc

The Cabin has a nice private wooded view and is just a few minutes drive from Lake Lure beach and Chimney Rock village. The beds are soft and bathrooms and bed rooms spacious. Exactly what we had hoped for.

Nice time at Lake Lure

This was our first time visiting the area. The cabin was well located to make exploring the area easy and convenient. We enjoyed the stocked kitchen as well. We enjoyed a few meals out and a few meals cooked in the cabin. The place was clean, easy to find and gave us a good amount of space.

Great Cabin Near Chimney Rock and Lake Lure

The cabin was well stocked for our stay, although we did not cook any meals while we were there. The bathrooms were also adequately stocked with supplies, towels and washcloths. The cabin appeared very clean, and all of the light switches were labeled for convenience. We were happy to find that the bed in the master bedroom (downstairs) had a memory foam topper and was comfortable to sleep in. There were plenty of pillows as well. The location was was easy to access with adequate room for parking off the street. We also enjoyed the gas fireplace and the satellite TV while relaxing at the cabin. The only recommendation I have would be to use fragrance free detergent and softener for the towels, washcloths, and bed linens for folks with sensitivities and allergies to fragrance. Although, it seems pretty common to find scented laundry products being used in most cabin and house rentals. Overall, it was a wonderful cabin and a great getaway for our anniversary.

Cute cozy cabin

The cabin was very clean and was the perfect size for our two small girls, my husband and I. The girls loved eating breakfast on the porch and the little play nook with toys. The owner was so generous to offer our family to check in a day early due to a Florida hurricane but our flights weren’t until the next day so we couldn’t take him up on the offer.. The master king bed was a little too firm for our liking and from the listing we thought there was a waterfall nearby that we could hike to but when we looked it up it’s was over an hour away. Other than that, the kitchen had a lot for us to use, there was comfy lazy boys and we will definitely be back when we visit family again

Mary Ann's Cabin Stay

Overall this was a great property and was just as advertised. The location was convenient and easy to find. The house was well stocked but I have stayed in VRBOs that were better stocked. I had to buy a few things but just took them back home with me. The door lock was a problem at first but the owner fixed it. I would stay here again & would recommend to others.

Wishing it could have been longer

Property was wonderful. What we loved the most was it was central to everything and clean as advertised. Wish there had been more outside furniture to relax in or chairs for a lakeside retreat. But highly recommend.
