Beautiful home with a perfect location, only a few miles away from everything local. We took a week, two family vacation, and there was so much to do at the house with the game rooms, Jacuzzi, etc… there was no need to leave. The residence had a beautiful view all the way around the house and beautiful walking trails.

Mountain View Retreat

We had a wonderful quick getaway in Lake Lure at Mountain View Retreat. The home was beautiful and the views were stunning. The home was well appointed and equipped with anything you could possibly need during your stay. We appreciate the management being so quick to respond to questions. We can't wait to return.

THAT view!!

Second time staying at this beautiful property and will return. House is lovely….plenty of space for all, comfortable beds and furniture, great amenities, but the large wall of windows showcasing a spectacular view of the mountains is the best! Also, one of the cleanest VRBOs I’ve rented. Thank you!

Amazing long weekend getaway

Our family of 5 spent a wonderful Memorial Day weekend here. The home is beautiful - very clean, beds comfortable, well appointed kitchen, plenty of space. The kids loved the pool table, books and board games. The hot tub was enjoyed by all. Back decks with a beautiful view. WiFi worked flawlessly. We’d love to come back and stay longer next time!

Exceeded our expectations. As usual pictures do no justice. Beautiful inside and out! We cannot come up with even the tiniest negative about this property! Very private, very quiet location, yet close enough to anything we wanted to do.

We had the time of our lives!

One of the best vacations we have ever had! The house is absolutely amazing with an incredible attention to detail. Views both in back and in front of the house. I really could go on and on about everything in this house — but I’ll sum it to say that if you’re considering staying here; do it! You will not be sorry! Thank you and we hope to be back again!

Family and friends getaway with kids

Beautiful house with an amazing view of the mountains. Quick 5 minute drive down to the lake. The kids absolutely loved it and wanted to move in. We saw a bear from the top deck the first morning which was really cool. Only issue we had was the dryer wasn’t heating which was a bit of a problem since we were all given only one set of towels.

The view!!

First, the home was great! Beautiful, well stocked kitchen (loved the granite countertops), tastefully decorated, comfortable furniture and bedding, lots of room to spread out/have privacy if desired, and wonderful amenities (hot tub, fire pit table, and pool table). But!! the location, decks, and huge wall of windows that allowed us to enjoy THE MOST SPECTACULAR VIEWS was the best!! Would definitely consider renting again!

Lake Lure Family Vacation 2024

The house is beautiful, spacious, and has amazing views. We are a family of 10 and it accommodated us easily. The kitchen has everything you could ask for and the billiards table was a hit. If going with a large group take a couple extra towels. The few negatives had nothing to do with the house but with the lake. No jet ski's allowed and you have to pay to go to the beach. Also most things close by 9 p.m.

Best Vacation House

We can’t thank the owners of our house enough! I think this was one of our best family trips! The house was perfect! We had space to spread out. The owners thought of everything! We planned to cook a lot over our stay, so I brought a few items that I thought they’d never have and …they had it! From a blender to a crockpot, they thought of it all! We packed games and they had them! We will probably rent this one again! Thank you.

Beautiful House

Our family of 10 came to visit for Thanksgiving. The house was spacious and had everything we needed. The teens were entertained and we didn't leave but once to go out to dinner. It was nice to relax and enjoy the views without having to leave at all.

Beautiful secluded home with plenty of room for our group

I rented three homes for a church group of 22 adults. This was the favorite of all the homes. It was roomy, the playroom was fabulous and has games and a pool table. Also, the extra kitchen in the playroom was nice. The hot tub was perfect. It is really a 4 bedroom home as the "common area" room is a bedroom with closets and a door for privacy. I've had 2 people from my group ask for the information on renting this home for their family in the future - that's how nice it was.
