About this property
Tranquil Lake Lure Views & Mountain Views | Hickory Nut Hideaway by AvantStay
Behold this Cape Cod cutie, snugly settled between the Asheville buzz and the tranquil embrace of Lake Lure. Just a few miles from Fairview, Hickory Nut Hideaway boasts an open-plan layout on the main level, where you’ll find a fully-equipped kitchen, bright dining area, and comfortable living room with a TV. Enjoy mountain views from the wraparound deck overlooking your private fenced yard, complete with a firepit for late-night stargazing. There’s even a grill provided for easy at-home dinners.
When it's time to call it a day, the primary bedroom features a king bed with an ensuite bathroom boasting both a soaking tub and separate shower. You’ll also find two additional queen rooms on the main floor, giving everyone in your group a space to call their own.
Grocery runs and fresh food jaunts are a breeze – you're practically neighbors with Food Lion and the tantalizing treasure trove that is Trout Lily. Fancy some coastal charm? Cape Fear Seafood's got your cravings covered. Let your taste buds tango at Trout Lily for specialty organics, or catch the coastal wave at Cape Fear Seafood. Hickory Nut Gap Farm is your BBQ haven, and Flying Cloud Farm's got the freshest veggies and berries in town. And guess what? All this goodness is just a stone's throw away.
Adventure seekers, you're in luck. Boating, paddling, biking, hiking, climbing, and rafting – consider your bucket list checked, all within arm's reach.
Hickory Nut Hideaway is more than a vacation rental; it's your passport to an Asheville experience like no other.
AvantStay provides a personalized hospitality experience to elevate your stay. With our Concierge Service, guests have access to our tech-enabled services like fridge stocking, private chefs, massages, transportation, special occasion celebrations, baby gear rentals, ski gear, beach gear, and more.

An exciting yet laid-back escape among the Blue Ridge Mountains, Asheville is a unique blend of outdoor adventure, exciting entertainment, and incredible local cuisine. Explore stunning views from bike or horseback, or stroll around the buzzing art district filled with breweries, boutiques, and venues. Cool breezes, historic architecture, and more — you can have it all in Asheville.
