About this property

WONDERFUL MOUNTAIN VIEWS~PETS WELCOME~ CLOSE TO EVERYTHING, YET VERY PRIVATE.

Hello Guests,
The Lake Lure and Chimney Rock were devastated by hurricane Helene in September of 2024 and the Lake is currently closed and has been drained while they are still cleaning up.

I am excited that with the rebuilding of Chimney Rock and Lake Lure, many new restaurants have emerged. People ask me, "where's a good place to eat?" My reply is that all the restaurants in Lake Lure are good. "It's hard to make a living selling bad food in a small town." Lol, but it's true.

All of the Chimney Rock merchants have reopened as well as many new merchants have come to open business in Chimney Rock. The town is booming.

Please consider my cabin when looking for a weekend stay and come and visit the area. It's pretty devastated, but the area is still beautiful, and the leaves are turning.

I have lowered my rates severely to keep my housekeepers employed and to help them with their recovery from the storm.

Reach out to me if you have any questions.
Thanks.
Bob

 ~PLEASE READ MY REVIEWS~ This is a cute little log cabin, on a paved road, just off of Hwy 64 in Lake Lure. It's only 3 minutes from the Public Beach. It’s a new log cabin with all the modern comforts of home including central heat and air, washer/dryer, fridge with ice maker, and dishwasher with all the appliances.
This cabin has two great bedrooms. The upstairs bedroom is very cute and has the intimate feeling of being in a loft with a view of the mountains and log bed. The downstairs bedroom is cozy with a delightful feeling of home. Both beds are Queen size and there are hang up closets in both bedrooms.
All the bedrooms are tastefully furnished with lots of drawers for plenty of storage.
The downstairs is very cozy with a cathedral ceiling and a glass wall that provides a stunning view of the mountains. There is a comfy gas log fireplace to help take the chill off at night.
On the wrap around deck you can smell the fresh mountain air, hear the birds, perhaps see the local deer, and gaze at the excellent view of the mountains. The deck also has 4 Adirondack chairs and a BBQ grill. and a cute little bistro table that is excellent for enjoying dinner or morning coffee outdoors, and to soak up the wonderful view.
I also have a variety of DVDs for a great 'movie night' including free popcorn. On us.
Another little Plus is along with the Key to the cabin there is an 'Ingles Advantage' card for discounts at the local grocery store. So they'll treat you like a local.
Come and stay at this 'Cute Little Log Cabin for Rent'. You'll love it, just like just like the others have.
Thanks for considering it.

Cute, cozy cabin

This cabin was very comfortable, clean and pet friendly! It's in a great location for the surrounding attractions. Lake Lure is still recovering from the hurricane, but the townspeople are friendly and overall happy to see out of town guests again. We would definitely stay here again.

Continued Excellent Experience

We have been visiting "our cabin" for many years and are always very pleased. The owner/host is so great. If we have questions or needs, he responds immediately. The cabin is situated on a quiet road close to town. We have the beauty of privacy and are minutes from restaurants and activities in both Lake Lure and Chimney Rock.

Wonderful stay!

My daughter and I met for a visit at Chimney Rock. The cabin is beautiful and cozy, and we made ourselves right at home. We loved relaxing on the deck and having a glass of wine. We had such a fun visit and climbed the 500 steps to the top of Chimney Rock with our 2 dogs and walked the trail to the waterfall! There were so many wonderful restaurants along the riverfront and the stores were fun to pop into. So many memories were made. Thank you! I can't wait to come back!

Enjoyed Lake Lure

Had a great time. Enjoyed spending time with friends I haven’t seen in 20 years. Hiking was the highlight of our trip. It was off season, but I enjoyed it and learned about creating Lake Lure. I did not know it was man made. We went to a restaurant called Highlands (?) and it was one of the best places to eat that I’ve ever been and I’m culinary school graduate. All over- it was a great time. Wish I could go every weekend!

Cute Cabin

We had a great time at Lake Lure. The cabin was clean, had everything we needed to cook, nice rooms and a wonderful living room to play games/watch TV together. One thing that always stands out is water pressure and water temperature. This cabin provided perfect showers! Couldn’t say enough about that. Overall, it’s in a great location and was easy to find. Has a place for two parking spots, big front deck area, an upstairs room with an additional loft area. Will be coming back! Thanks for letting us stay in your beautiful cabin.

Lovely cabin stay, but could easily be elevated to a five-star review. Reasons dropping rating to 4-star: 1. Hard tree nuts dropping on roof, awnings and deck on a continue basis, making loud sounds. 2. Extremely hard to open outdoor trash bin. 3. Too large coffee table for small living room. 4. No celing lighting in lower bedroom with too low lamp lighting. 5. Bed linens/pillows should be a higher quality for the rate charged.

Peaceful, Convenient, and Full of Adventure!We had a wonderful time staying at this cabin with our family! It offered the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience — tucked away in a peaceful setting, yet just minutes from a great grocery store and a handful of restaurants. It was so refreshing to enjoy the quiet of nature without sacrificing easy access to essentials.We used the grill a few times and it worked great! While the patio area could use a bit of TLC and a deeper clean, we still really enjoyed relaxing outside in the fresh air.Although the lake is still closed due to the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, we were impressed by how quickly the community is working to rebuild. There's a real sense of resilience and care throughout the area.We also had the chance to visit Chimney Rock, which is thankfully open again. The views were absolutely stunning — a wonderful experience for the whole family. A highlight of our trip was heading about 30 minutes south to Green River Adventures, where we went tubing and explored waterfalls — such a fun and memorable day!Highly recommend this cabin for anyone looking to relax, reconnect, and explore. We’ll definitely be back!

Return to Lake Lure

My wife and I have stayed at "Bob's cabin" at Lake Lure every year for nearly 10 years. As always, the cabin was comfortable, clean, accessible to local sites, and a wonderful place to spend a few stress-free days away from home. The host is very responsive to questions and provides many amenities that make the stay even more pleasant (coffee, tea, popcorn, etc.). There is a large grocery store not too far aways for anything one might have forgotten or neglected to pack. For obvious reasons (Hurrican Helene, in 2024) there were many changes to the local area (Chimney Rock is still closed to the public), but the Lake Lure community is working hard to recover and there are many wonderful restaurants and a few shops to visit. We very much enjoyed eating out, shopping, chatting with the locals, and offering our support and encouragement. We hope to return this fall.

About the host

Hosted by Bob

Host profile image
I bought my first log cabin in Chimney Rock in 1993. When I first discovered this area I fell in love with it. Our family has spent many wonderful days in this area and have memories that will last a life time. We hope you'll enjoy your stay here, and take the time to explore the many wonderful things this area provides.

Why they chose this property

As a sales person during my professional career I used to travel from Charlotte, NC to Knoxville, Tn. for sales calls. I had been looking for some vacation property for a few years and had thought about buying back in Montana. But when I remembered the winters, I came to my senses and realized the Mountains of Western North Carolina is where my wife and I wanted to send down roots for our vacation home. After traveling through the Lake Lure, Chimney Rock area for a few years I stumbled across a little one room log cabin which we soon bought. It was another little, one room cabin similar to the one I lived in while in Montana. I knew it would be a great place to start building memories. We raised our two sons there and have many fond memories of the kids swinging on kudzu vines, going to the Easter Sunrise Service upon Chimney Rock and many other fond remembrances. We still have that little cabin and have had it for over 20 years. Then in 2010 I found this cabin. Compared to the rustic old places I was used to and had lived in, in the past, it was great to find some place with the same charm that had all the conveniences of home...central heat, running water,,,inside the cabin. A place where you didn't see daylight between the logs, ha ha. Oh, the charm. Our family loves our little mountain get away and hope you also enjoy your stay here as well, and will keep us in your plans for your upcoming vacation needs. Enjoy.

What makes this property unique

Our family wants you to enjoy yourselves while your here, and please, make yourselves at home. We have put together a list of things to do while in these beautiful North Carolina mountains, as well as discounts from local business's. You can go for a great hike in the morning, or simply sip coffee on the deck as your watch the town wake up.
