Our Stay at Hickory Nut Lodge
We really enjoyed our stay, and the view was fantastic. The layout of the house was very nice . The bottom level wasn't quite up to par. We had to sweep and wipe down some things. But over all it was a great stay and would like to come back and stay again.
This property is beyond amazing. The views are stunning, the house is super clean and well equipped. I wish I could stay another week. I will be back.

Wonderful View
The amazing view from the deck made time at the cabin as entertaining as visiting the local attractions. Easy to access and plenty of parking.

We had a lovely 3 day weekend at Hickory Nut Lodge in Lake Lure. It was sad to see the devastation from Hurricane Helene but we still found plenty to do. The house was very comfortable for the six of us, the children loved the game room. We also played games we found in the house and games we had brought. The view was incredible as we watched sunrises and sunsets. We spent most of our time at the house on the massive deck and hated to leave. Thank you for sharing the house with guests and we hope to be back someday.
The house was clean and well equipped. The views from the decks and living room were spectacular. We would stay here again.

We had a great stay at the Hickory Nut Lodge.
The views of the valley and Chimney Rock are beautiful.
The house is very comfortable and well equipped.
Dining and shopping were close by and the game room was a plus.

Hickory Nut Lodge is the ideal mountain home!
It's cozy but at the same time lets you enjoy the beautiful views through
the den windows and on the deck.
House was well equipped and beds were very comfortable!
We had a great time.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this home! The view was spectacular and the accommodations were more than enough for us! The place was immaculate and very welcoming! We will definitely consider this place in the future! The only complaint we have is that our stay was too short!
We really enjoyed our stay at this property! The views were phenomenal from both decks. The layout was perfect for two families as we each got our own level. The kids loved the game room! We would definitely return!

The house was spacious and clean. We enjoyed the game room a lot. The location is great. But the best part is by far the view. Phenomenal!

Beautiful View / Home
This place is absolutely perfect. The view, kitchen accessories, game room and everything about it. Super clean and beautifully well kept. The daily hummingbird show was a plus along with the cardinals and yellow finches. Spent our 41 anniversary and it couldn't have been any better.
Would definitely stay again. Wow what a view! Downside— too many detailed chores required upon departure when everyone is scrambling to get out at 10am or be charged.
Everything was wonderful, the home was great for our family.
We all enjoyed the spacious rooms, game room & comfy beds/sofas.
The view is outstanding!!
Location & neighborhood great.
Definitely recommend!
We can’t wait to return!!
We spent two weeks at Hickory Nut Lodge and we can't say enough about how Amazing this house is! Everything was Perfect! It was very clean, comfortable, great location and a view that is unmatched! Thank you so much for sharing your little slice of Heaven with us! It was really hard to leave.
This place was ideal. Each couple, person had his own bedroom with bath. That was primary. The location was great, close to everything. the only thing I would have liked would be able to do some walking outside. We had a great time.
