The Perfect Retreat

The place was better than expected! It has the feel of a quaint and vintage cabin, yet it is new and very clean. The cabin had all of the amenities of a home and the landscape was very well maintained. Very secluded though Lake Lure is a only short 10 minute drive away. The place is a hidden gem. I cannot wait to return!

2nd Time Around, Still Great

I came back here a second time in November 2023 (yes, I'm terribly slow at getting around to writing reviews), and it was again a great experience. I came to get some writing done, and the Whispering Pines cabin was once again the perfect place to get some quiet time with no distractions, get out and hike a little bit, and head up the road to the Lake House Restaurant Bar & Grill for a delicious lunch. I look forward to coming back in the future.

Perfect Quiet Getaway

I came here for a long weekend to write and go on some local hikes, and the cabin was perfect for that. It was off-season, so the cabin next door was unoccupied, making for a very quiet time with no distractions -- which was just what I needed. The cabin was cozy and clean, and it was only a short distance to various hiking areas. I had an enjoyable and productive stay.

Peaceful and Clean

The location is very peaceful with a beautiful mountain view. The cleanliness of the cabin exceeded my expectations. It almost had a feel of camping (due to location in the woods) which was great for us because we love to camp!
