About this property
Lake Front, Family & Dog Friendly! Available
Important information for SPRING and SUMMER 2025. Although our home and cove were unaffected by Hurricane Helene, there are still some repairs happening around the lake. As a result, the town has temporarily paused boating and swimming for the next few months. While lake access isn't available at this time, we're excited to offer our beautiful mountain home with breathtaking lake views at a reduced rate. We've adjusted our rental prices and minimum stay requirements to reflect this change, making it an ideal opportunity for a peaceful retreat. Western North Carolina has bounced back beautifully, and the lake's serene charm remains. Come experience the natural beauty and tranquility that this area offers. Lake Lure is truly beautiful in every season. Our home, Summer Wind, on Edwards Point, provides space where your family can take full advantage of a peaceful oasis. The town of Lake Lure still has excellent amenities to offer, such as, golfing, hiking trails, 5 restaurants, and a grocery store. Come unwind besides our firepit, play games with the family, and enjoy the beautiful mountain air.
This charming lake home has an open kitchen, dining and family room. Perfect for hanging out after a day on the water. Only 5 minutes to Bald Mountain Golf Course, Rumbling Bald Resort on the Lake.
There are three bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths on the main level and a full size sleeper sofa and twin sleeper sofa with bath on the lower level.
This 1935 lake house is in a spacious, quiet cove with a gently sloping yard to the water. The double slip-covered boat dock with 450 sq. ft. deck has beautiful views of Rumbling Bald Mountain. Drive right up to the back door, plus very little steps to the lake. Great lot.....Great lake home!
Come enjoy our lake front home and know that life is always better at the lake!

A beautiful home tucked away in total peace and quiet. Thoughtfully equipped with everything you could need. The hosts were gracious, polite, and extremely helpful throughout our stay.
Great times had by all, enjoyed the location, nice quiet cove, used the pontoon, learned to paddle board, went kayaking and canoeing. Used the fire pit, close to Chimney Rock

We had a relaxing vacation at this lake house. The kitchen was well stocked, and we had fun with the canoe and paddle boards. Our dogs LOVED jumping off the dock and swimming?

We enjoyed our week at this cozy home with great access to the lake. My elderly parents were able to walk to the lake every day enjoying the view from the dock. The deck upstairs was nice and shady on days when it was hot and sunny. We think our dogs enjoyed it the most chasing balls in the water!
John and Gail were incredibly responsive and helpful hosts! My family had a wonderful time at this lake house and enjoyed evenings on the boat, visiting Chimney Rock and disconnecting. We will be back!

Thank you so much for renting our lake house! So glad you had a great visit; you left the house in great shape. Please come again.Jon & Gail
The house and property were just what we needed to unplug and reset. The views were beautiful from the dock. The Bellows’ were wonderful hosts and supplied plenty of games and SUP for guest use. Chimney Rock Village was close and a great place to walk around with good local restaurants. We would definitely stay here again.

What a great vacation. Everything we needed was provided. LOVED the waterfront and beautiful views, and use of the paddleboard, kayak, pedal boat, splash pad, and also rented the pontoon boat. Made great memories! Saw deer in the yard. Even the dogs loved it. Thank you for a wonderful week.

We have rented numerous other lakefront houses on Lake Lure. The fact that this was our third straight year at this property tells the story about how much we love it. One cannot beat its close proximity to the lakefront; the very few steps one has to navigate; and the spacious, nice layout of the house and its amenities. Also, Jon and Gail are terrific hosts ! One cannot go wrong with rental of this property.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Great location to many areas
The bellows were super quick in their response to any questions asked. The view from the dock is breathtaking and worth the stay all it itself! We didn’t spend much time at the property as we were visiting family in surrounding areas but we enjoyed the time we did have there. Wished for snow but didn’t happen this go around ☺️ Weather was fantastic though!
When we wanted a lake vacation I immediately thought of this property we stayed at 4 years ago and had a wonderful time. It’s not a luxury property but it is comfortable and clean and has everything you need and more…plenty of beds, fully stocked kitchen, view of the mountains from dock, and you can see the dock from the house. Lake access is directly behind house and you can walk right into lake. We traveled with our college age daughters and two dogs and had a wonderful time enjoying paddle boarding and we rented the owners pontoon boat. We will definitely return again!
Our family had the best Memorial Day weekend at Gail and Johns lakefront home. The house was clean and well equipped. We loved the use of the boat house, kayaks, paddle boat, canoe, I could go on. Thank you for sharing your home with us. We will be back!

Second straight year we have stayed here. Will be back ! What a wonderful house in a great location. Clean, well-equipped, and so conveniently close to the lake Nice pontoon boat at the dock if one wishes to rent it and plenty of other water recreational equipment. Jon and Gail, the owners/hosts are so very nice and responsive. We highly recommend this property !
