We’ve been married for over 30 years and live just an hour away from this peaceful retreat, which serves as our second home and one of our favorite places to unwind. Owning this cabin has been a longtime dream, and it’s brought us so much joy to create a comfortable, welcoming space where others can recharge and reconnect—whether with family, nature, or themselves.

We’ve made lasting memories here with our two sons and our dogs, Roxi and Ollie, who especially love hiking nearby trails and splashing in the Broad River. Hosting is our way of sharing the calm and beauty we’ve found in Lake Lure. We hope you enjoy the peace, simplicity, and stillness this place offers, and we kindly ask that you treat our cabin with the same care and respect as if it were your own.

Why did you choose this neighborhood?

The moment we entered the Riverbend community, we knew we’d found something special. After more than a year of searching, this peaceful, wooded neighborhood captured our hearts—and we knew it would be the perfect place to create a second home and share with others as a relaxing retreat.

Riverbend feels like a true escape. The gravel roads wind past Mirror Lake, with its charming pavilion, beach, and dock for swimming, fishing, and paddleboarding. Across the road, you’ll find the River Walk, where you can explore the beautiful Broad River, picnic beside giant boulders, or dip into quiet swimming holes near a small waterfall. Just beyond Mirror Lake is Little Mirror Lake, another serene spot with space to relax and enjoy the sounds of nature.

The community is made up of rustic homes, each tucked away with privacy and space—offering that secluded, cabin-in-the-woods feel. Deer and other wildlife are frequent visitors, and we always recommend keeping dogs leashed for their safety.

When we’re here, we never want to leave. And with so much nearby—from zip lining and hiking to wineries, festivals, and even the famous Dirty Dancing lakefront—you just might feel the same way.

From the moment we stepped inside, we knew this was the one. The soaring vaulted ceilings and exposed beams gave the space an open, welcoming feel and the handcrafted wagon wheel chandelier fills the room with rustic charm. Anchoring the space is a stunning stone fireplace with a mantle dating back to the 1700s, salvaged from a historic West Virginia cabin. It’s not just a conversation piece—it’s the heart of the home.

Step onto the deck and you’ll enjoy peaceful, seasonal views of Mirror Lake. It’s the perfect spot for morning coffee, an afternoon read, or a glass of wine as the sun sets. We’ve filled the cabin with thoughtful, personal touches—like locally crafted artwork and custom furniture designed by us and built by a talented area woodworker. The console table and writing desk are just a few examples of the handmade quality that gives the space its character.

We’ve worked hard to make this cabin feel like a true retreat. It’s a place where history, comfort, and creativity come together—and we hope you’ll feel that warmth the moment you arrive.
