About this property
Historic Log Cabin on Lake Lure
Hurricane Helene Update: Our cabins are in good shape. Our lakefront and first pond have been damaged and will need to be repaired. The construction at our lakefront to remove sediment from the lake from Hurricane Helene has finished! We are very grateful for the work the Corps of Engineers and their subcontractors have done, but we are equally happy that the Beep! Beep! and engine noise have stopped. The lake will remain lowered until Spring, but that happens many years anyway. Our cozy romantic cabins are now peaceful all day. '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! Also in Lake Lure you will find two championship golf courses and a municipal nine-hole golf course.
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. Its also a short drive to the Pisgah National Forest and the Blue Ridge Parkway. While at Pine Gables Cabins don't forget about Dupont State Park, the Cradle of Forestry and a multitude of other outdoor adventures Western North Carolina is famous for.
