About this property

Owl's Nest Cabin. Romantic Cabin on beautiful Lake Lure!

Romantic cabin on a mountain lake. We are near Chimney Rock, Asheville and The Biltmore House. Please note that the town has lowered the lake and there will be construction equipment at the lakebed removing sediment. We are only 1/4 mile from the site where the movie Dirty Dancing was filmed. We are only 18 miles from the new Tryon International Equestrian Resort. Our cozy one bedroom log cabin is built for couples and has a hot tub. We are located in the Town of Lake Lure and only one mile south of the charming mountain Village of Chimney Rock, NC. For no extra cost we have 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!

Nice cabin

Nice place to stay. As a cabin, it isn’t a fancy house or hotel, but is a very nice unit. Well furnished, fridge, stove, microwave, heat/a-c, screened deck with hot tub and gas grill. Enjoyed our stay

Great place to stay at Lake Lure.

Wonderful visit! Everything was as advertised and touches like dog bowls, toys were available. The timer on gas logs was a great idea. Very close to “downtown “ Lake Lure and restaurants and right on the water. Will definitely come back!

Fun at Pine Gables

This was our fifth trip to the Lake Lure/Chimney Rock area and we’ve stayed at Jim’s Pine Gables each time. It’s a very peaceful, historic area that we’ve come to really enjoy. The location near Chimney Rock Village and the Lake Lure Flowering Bridge makes it an ideal stop. Thanks again for another great stay.

Beautiful Getaway

The cabin was wonderful, very quiet area. The only thing I didn't like was the road on the property. The whole are is beautiful, with plenty to see and do, even off season. I would definitely go back there!

The Owls Nest

Lovely cabin. I especially enjoyed sitting on the porch and having a meal and a cup of tea. Only problem for me: the climb down to the dock is very treacherous and the dock and ladder should be replaced for safety.

Owls Nest Cabin

Me and my husband just celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary at Owls Nest Cabin. We had a great time while there. A few things that bothered us, shower floor was disgusting, much dust around. The description of the cabin said view of Lake Lure, however you are on a cove and all we saw was little water and a lot of mucky sand. Cabin is in a good location, convenient to restaurants, hiking trails.

The cabin was as listed. It would help to have a sliding door for the actual toilet/shower closet.

It would be nice to have the air unit in the bedroom. The dock also needs repair. It was dangerously rotten.

Awesome Experience!

We had a fantastic time at the cabin on Lake Lure! This place is definitely a hidden gem. The cabin was cute, clean, and the location was very convenient. There were a lot of great touches like dog bowls and toys for our Irish Setter. We loved having access to the grill and the hot tub, and we enjoyed taking the canoe out for a spin. Jim was very responsive to questions and check-in was simple and easy. The cabin exceeded all of our expectations and we would highly recommend it. We will certainly be back! :)

Long Lake Lure Weekend

The checkin was easy. It is a very quiet place to relax. Cabin had everything we needed. Only 2 compliants 1. It needed a little more cleaning, bath n bedroom had an odor. 2. No Lake view for all the trees. I love trees but was expecting a view of the lake from the cabin. We had our little dog with us and had no issues. Great little place for her to walk around.

Great stay but had a few drawbacks

The cabin was stocked as stated. I was disappointed with the lack of view of the lake compared to the picture. Aware of the extreme heat outside but the cool air just can’t seem to make it to the bedroom. The ac split system was in the den (opposite end of the cabin). The floors were not clean as there was even dog food on the floor beside the couch. The pots and pans and cookie sheet definitely had not be cleaned in awhile. It is very quiet and loved that!!! We will definitely give it another try.

Worst vacation ever

The property was not as advertised. Couldn't see lake due to growth of trees and weeds. Walked to dock that was rotten. We were scared to even use. Outside of cabin needs up dated. We wasted our weekend. Had to find a new place to stay and went home early.
