Our cabin, " Camp-View Cabin ", is brand-new (opened Oct. 2004). It has lodge-style decor, and set in a wooded neighborhood, with Lake Lure access. The open swim area is located a short walk down a gravel road and past a quaint waterfall. (You can also get there by car). There you will find a beautiful setting with wooden docks, picnic tables, a gas grill, lounge chairs, and a kayak rack that holds two kayaks for your use.
The cabin is located 3 miles from the shopping towns of Chimney Rock and Lake Lure. The dramatic Rocky Broad River flows alongside the town where you can enjoy walking into an old general store, many shops and restaurants that are full of gifts and goods with that good old mountain flair. Chimney Rock Park is right there in town (check out their website.)
Within an hour are such spots as Historic Hendersonville, culture-rich Asheville (home of the Biltmore Estate, The Grove Park Inn and Spa, and the Blue Ridge Parkway). Sliding Rock, many waterfalls, and marked hiking trails are also around the area for the nature lover.
Camp-View Cabin is located on property that was once a 100-acre youth camp, with its borders on one of the most scenic parts of Lake Lure. The rock-faced Rumbling Bald Mountains rise toward heaven from the meadow on the west side of "camp", and can be seen from the window in our cozy loft.
In addition to the commonly seen fish, turtles, ducks, and squirrel, are deer and wild turkey, which roam freely in the camp. On rare occasion you may spot a raccoon, fox, bobcat or even a bear.
This cabin was built in 2004, with a vision that people might come here to escape the busy life back home and have time to enjoy the simple things - love, relationships, and God's beautiful creation. Enjoy! |
