Wonderful View
The amazing view from the deck made time at the cabin as entertaining as visiting the local attractions. Easy to access and plenty of parking.

Weekend getaway
We had a great stay at the Hickory Nut Lodge.
The views of the valley and Chimney Rock are beautiful.
The house is very comfortable and well equipped.
Dining and shopping were close by and the game room was a plus.

Wonderful getaway.
This home was located close to town and lake access. There was plenty of space and still felt cozy! Great views.
We really enjoyed our stay at this property! The views were phenomenal from both decks. The layout was perfect for two families as we each got our own level. The kids loved the game room! We would definitely return!
Fantastic home! There are 3 floors, with relaxing areas on each floor. Plenty of room for everyone. The game room on the lowest level made evenings very enjoyable, whether playing cards or foosball. The view is absolutely breathtaking from the two upper floors and it's so quiet outside. When we return to Lake Lure, we will check a date so we stay at the Hickory Nut Lodge.

Beautiful View / Home
This place is absolutely perfect. The view, kitchen accessories, game room and everything about it. Super clean and beautifully well kept. The daily hummingbird show was a plus along with the cardinals and yellow finches. Spent our 41 anniversary and it couldn't have been any better.
We spent two weeks at Hickory Nut Lodge and we can't say enough about how Amazing this house is! Everything was Perfect! It was very clean, comfortable, great location and a view that is unmatched! Thank you so much for sharing your little slice of Heaven with us! It was really hard to leave.
This place was ideal. Each couple, person had his own bedroom with bath. That was primary. The location was great, close to everything. the only thing I would have liked would be able to do some walking outside. We had a great time.
So close to everything but a world away- this beautiful home was so comfortable and was everything we wanted; Gorgeous views with a level, concrete driveway for motorcycles. Easy access to the Blue Ridge Parkway and other beautiful mountain roads. Minutes from Chimney Rock, and Biltmore but away from highways. Well stocked kitchen, toasty fireplace and plenty of big tvs!! Loved it!
House was nice, easy to access, and had a great view. Layout was kind if strange, but it worked out ok. One of the showers would not get hot.

Best All Time Family Vacation
Most beautiful view of the mountains from the huge windows all across the back of the cabin! Comfortable beds, nice thick towels and very clean! The kids enjoyed the lower level playing all the games in the lower level game room. Plenty of areas to hike and a must is Chimney Rock and visiting the shops of the quaint little town. The cabin provided plenty of space for each to enjoy time alone or be together as a family to have fun times! This cabin was the absolute best! It will not disappoint!
This was our second stay at this beautiful property. I brought my father and mother up for my dad’s 86th birthday! The view did not disappoint with the beautiful fall foliage. It was great for my parents because they were able to enjoy everything on one level. My husband and I used the downstairs bedroom. It was such a wonderful weekend. One of my favorite places to stay for sure!
