Perfect Place to Relax and Have Fun!

We throughly enjoyed Pawley's place. Lake Lure is beautifully nestled in the mountains and the pontoon boat allowed us to see the beautiful homes and scenic views from the water. Lots of beautiful hikes and waterfalls to see. We had a variety of kids from ages 9 to teenagers and there was something fun for everyone!

3 generations vacation

Ages ranged from 19 to 85 and all enjoyed the lovely home. There was ample room for togetherness and we especially enjoyed large dining table where all could gather but also ample places for various activities and privacy. There were lively outdoor areas and view was fantastic. Communication with Buffalo Hunction was excellent. Would highly recommend

Incredibly Relaxing and Tranquil

This was our first time staying at Lake Lure. The home was very comfortable for our extended family. We were able to shop several times at Ingles for groceries. (Very Close to the house). The included pontoon boat as well as kayaks, canoes and water boards was a huge bonus for the kids as well as adults!

Great property

Beautiful home which easily accommodates two families. The pontoon boat is what sold us on this house and it did not disappoint. It’s a great boat with lots of seating. The house is very near an Ingles grocery store which was very convenient. The cove was safe and nice for the kids to swim around. We would definitely consider returning.
