This home was perfect for our large family. It had everything we needed. The home was clean, spacious and having access to kayaks and the slide allowed for a lot of fun and time together

We had a blast. We enjoyed our friend trip. The lake was really pretty and we enjoyed that there was a slide and kayaks were provided. The house had the perfect amount of space inside and being on the end of the cove was great for more cars and the ability to turn around before leaving the cabin.

What a lovely home, situated on a secluded cove of Lake Lure! We enjoyed the view (two of our family members are artists and they painted from the porch) and the kayaking. The rooms were large and the downstairs combined kitchen, dining room, and living-room/game area was perfect for our crew or ten to gather and talk, do a jigsaw puzzle, or play a game. The large parking area was a big surprise--we fit 5 cars in the driveway easily. Thank you for our lovely family reunion!Adrienne Hollifield

Communication with the host was great, pre-trip and during our stay. The view of the mountain was fabulous. Even though the lake was still drained 30 feet for hurricane cleanup and recovery, the atmosphere was calm and relaxing. The open floor plan is nice. Especially with the bedroom level having its own lounging area. The grocery store is only 10 minutes away. Restaurants even closer.

Great Vacation on Lake Lure

We loved our stay at this Lake Lure property! It was such a charming home with everything we needed. We loved the privacy of being at the end of the cove. The view of the lake and mountains was wonderful. We had adequate parking and it was great to walk right into the house with no one xtra steps for my elderly mom. Loved our stay!

Cozy, relaxing, and fun spot for family stay

With this being our second stay at Martha's home, we definitely enjoy it! With plenty of space indoors, on the deck, on the dock, and in the water, our extended family had a great time and felt very much at home. With Verizon service nearly nonexistent and very spotty internet at the house, it was mostly an unplugged week for us which is wonderful for a family vacation.

Im glad you had a good time and I'm sorry you had trouble with the internet. I am changing providers next week so I hope things improve. Lake Lure pretty limited in companies from which to choose. Unfortunately, there's nothing I can do about spotty cell service which is why I still have a land line. Renters are welcome to use it. Not the same as a cellphone of course, but better than nothing. Hope to see you again next year.

We loved the house!! Accommodated our family just great! Although we were there during Helene & had to cut our way out, Mrs Martha was the best host! We plan to go back another family vacation to her house once Lake Lure is cleaned & back open!!

Astonishing views!

Lake Lure is a must in anyone's travel, but the cabin was what gave us the most memories!. Spacious and quaint is the best way to describe. We had 3 families stay and none of us felt crowded or on top of each other. I recommend to anyone looking and would definitely stay again. Thank you to our host for all the memories we made and the extra hospitality we received.

Wonderful!

The house is roomy, clean, well maintained, beautifully furnished and comfortable. There is a great view of the lake and mountains, access to swimming right in the front yard and even a fire pit for s'mores! Our hosts couldn't have been more accomodating and I recommend this vacation home for any family members from infants to senoirs!

Great COVID respite

The location was great with ample cooking utensils and storage. Due to COVID-19, we did not leave the property and were well equipped to stay there. We didn’t need to interact with anyone and we’re pleased with the property and lake.

My family rented this property in 2018 and we rented it again this summer. We thought it was perfect for us both times. Two remodeled upstairs bathrooms were a nice surprise. Once again we all hated to leave. We will return!

Wonderful home right on the water

We loved this lake house and had a great vacation there. The house was immaculate when we arrived. Every morning we had coffee on the deck overlooking the lake with a beautiful mountain. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook our meals. Kayaks, canoe, and lake swimming kept us busy. Short drive to grocery store and hiking. Owner was a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend.

Perfect spot

The house was perfect for us. We had a fabulous week. The cove is GORGEOUS. House was stocked with everything we needed. The only issue we had was the internet/tv. We like to watch shows at night and it was really hard to get access. I would recommend maybe upgrading your tv service or internet, but other than that, we loved it!

I am glad you had a good time and am sorry you had trouble with the TV and WiFi. I didn't know that the TV was out but have spent much of this past week getting service restored. AT&T has JUST laid fiber optic cable down our road and we switched internet service over to that this week so I am hopeful that all is in working order now. Thanks for renting our house and I hope you can return to Lake Lure in the future. Martha

A perfect family vacation.

What a wonderful week was had by all. My granddaughter summed up the feelings of all when she said on our last day that she didn’t want to go home. The house was clean, comfortable and had everything we could possibly want or need. There were so many things to do that no one was ever bored. Golf, biking, kayaking (the property had several), swimming, hiking, and even a visit to the spa at the nearby resort were some of our activities. The grandchildren especially loved the slide on the dock and jumping into the lake from the boat house roof. All enjoyed sitting on the well-shaded deck admiring the very beautiful view. We would definitely rent this property again.

A Perfect Getaway Spot

My wife and I, parents, and almost-three-year-old stayed here for the Memorial Day weekend, and we couldn't be more pleased with our decision. This property was exactly as advertised—although the breathtaking view, which we never got tired of, was even better. The house was the perfect mix of rustic, comfortable, and updated, and fully stocked with essentials for cooking. Lots of little things, like a full spice cabinet, lots of grilling utensils, an extra tank of gas for the grill, and life jackets for kids and adults, made it clear that the owner, Martha, has been (successfully) hosting people for quite some time. I live in Asheville so Lake Lure isn't unfamiliar to me, but staying here I felt like I was on a totally new vacation. On top of all this, the owner was extremely communicative and accommodating. My family and I would absolutely stay here again.
