Beautiful Lake Retreat
Simply wonderful. The cabin was everything we thought: plenty of room for our group of seven, gorgeous views, peaceful neighborhood, lots of activities and hiking areas within close distance. We traveled with two boys (12 and 10), and they found plenty of activities within walking distance of the cabin to keep them entertained the whole week. I’m hoping to return to this lovely cabin again next winter!

Nice Getaway
The property was nice and the location was convenient to Lake Lure. Cabin was well equipped and offered what you needed to make your stay pleasant. The check in process at the gate upon arrival is a little difficult but once you're in, you have access to key cards making coming and going easier. The cabin could use a good cleaning to remove some dust and cobwebs that collect over time. Overall, a nice place, wonderful location.

Fall stay at Chipmunk Trail
The hike was great, plenty of space to spread out. Good for a large group. The decks & fireplace are a plus. The creek on the property was dry during our visit, but I’m sure it’s nice when full. The bathroom on the upstairs loft is dated and has a huge tub so we had share the downstairs shower but if you had a large group I could see how that would be inconvenient. Overall it was a great stay, just as described.

Family vacation
The property was the perfect size for us. There were nine adults (4 couples) and one 11 year old. It was close to most things we wanted to do ( whitewater rafting, UTV, ziplining). There were plenty of linens and kitchen supplies. It was a great cozy place to unwind after the days adventures.

Best rental
We have stayed at many rentals in the mountains and most have been great but little cleaning issues here and there. This cabin was by the the cleanest place we have ever stayed. We were all amazed that even the high and hard to reach area that you can see from the loft were even dusted. Outside furniture was cleaned off and ready to sit in. Liz was a great host. Very response and extremely nice. We asked for paddles and lifejackets to use their boats in the lake and within minutes they had them to our cabin. We will be renting from her again. The Riverbend community was a great location for our family with so much outdoor stuff to do and keep the kids entertained. Highly recommend renting this unit or one of her other 7 cabins.

Beautiful cabin with a lot of maintenance problems . Mice , unusable bathroom, door can't be locked.
Wonderful cabin in the most beautiful area , with lots to do . Private gated community, with private lake to swim and boat. Cabin has lots of room for a large family . I would love to stay there again if all the maintenance issues are resolved .

Multi generational trip. The home was immaculate with plenty of room. The location is beautiful and our daily walks to the lake and the river were lovely. The house had everything we needed to prepare meals for our large group. We had movie days on the two rainy days we were there. Highly recommend.

Great getaway
We really enjoyed our stay. We were in the area for a wedding and were very busy. We do wish we could have enjoyed the cabin a little more. The only complaint I have is the hot water really only lasts through one shower which was disappointing considering the home has so much room for guests. It was one of the cleanest properties I have stayed at in a while. Also very private which was nice!

Great place to stay
We stayed in this lovely home this November. The area is beautiful and the cabin was perfect. It was clean and spacious. Liz was great to work with, always responding in a timely manner. The cell phone reception is poor which was actually a nice break, but important to know. There are also no fires allowed outside, but there is a nice fireplace indoors; remember to bring wood. The kitchen is well stocked with plenty of pans, utensils, cups, & a great starter set of salt, pepper, dish washing liquid. I would most definitely stay here again.

Cozy and comfortable
For my first time in Lake Lure and the process of booking a cabin, the experience was awesome. The booking process was seemless. The property owner was very expediate and detailed in all correspondence. The cabin was just what my group needed. The cabin was very clean and cozy. The master bedroom loft was perfect. My only criticim is that the small television was too tiny for the size of the great room. When we return to Lake Lure, this cabin will certainly be in the top of our list.

Awesome Mountain House
Awesome house in the mountains. Loved all the wood furniture and that the deck was completely fenced off so our dog could be outside with us. The kitchen was nice and spacious and the beds were comfortable. We enjoyed the cozy log house atmosphere. The king bed is located upstairs and is a loft feeling room (for those looking for privacy, there isn't any sound wise). The spacious bathroom upstairs does not have a standard shower, just a large tub with a handheld shower faucet, but there is a shower on the main floor and in the basement, so no big deal for us. There was a pet bin with bowls and blankets which was a nice touch in case you forget any supplies for your pet. We would definitely rent here again, it was a great place!

Great location but be aware
It was a really nice house, spacious at a great location. just be aware one of the main bathrooms do not have a shower, you will run out of cold water quickly, and you will spend your last morning making sure the place is spotless just so housekeeping (which you have to pay cash $200 for) can come clean at 10am when you leave. Check out is way too early considering everything you have to do to make sure the owner is happy. If it wasn’t due to this, I would 100% return to this place.
