Fantastic Week on Lake Lure

We had a wonderful time with our children and grandchildren. The house was gorgeous and as depicted on VRBO. Plenty of room for all of us and fun for every age. During the day we enjoyed using the pontoon boat or just swimming, kayaking and paddleboarding off the dock. In the evenings we enjoyed playing pool and ping pong or having smores at the firepit. The house is very convenient to Chimney Rock and a number of restaurants. We would definitely rent this property again if we return to Lake Lure.

Great stay

Ali was super responsive, to any and all questions. The 5 bedrooms, over three floors did an exceptional job accommodating our large family (including Grandchildren). Many great areas to gather, and the reck room was a great feature.

Lake Lure Excursion

Great Property, the decks and Sun Rooms are wonderful for relaxation time. Our kids enjoyed kayaking and paddle boarding. The Chimney Rock area is quite beautiful. The sidewalks do roll up early in town and there are only a few places open after 8pm.

Annual family winter vacation

We originally had reservations in Gatlinburg but due to snow and ice we had to cancel. At the last minute we looked for somewhere else to gather and came across Lake Lure. The house and village of Chimney Rock exceeded our expectations!! Our family loved the house on the lake, we will definitely be back.

Beautiful house

"Enjoyed our stay at the Lake Lure cabin in North Carolina. The cabin offered a cozy retreat with well-appointed amenities. The location provided a serene atmosphere, and the cleanliness was commendable. While we had a comfortable stay, a few minor improvements could enhance the overall experience. Nonetheless, we appreciated the charm of the cabin and the beautiful surroundings."

Mountain Lake Retreat

We had an awesome time at the lake. The views were amazing. It was quiet and relaxing! The house was clean and spacious! Kitchen was well stocked with pans, plates, silverware, etc. The host Ali was quick to respond when we did have a question. Definitely would consider returning another time when it’s warmer to enjoy the lake activities.

Fall Family Trip

We rented this house for our family including our grown children and grandchildren. The house is perfect! It has everything you could possibly need and more! The location on the lake is just beautiful with so much to do! My only complaint is we didn’t get to stay long enough! We definitely plan to come back again!

Amazing Home!

We absolutely loved this place. We have rented through VRBO for several years and multiple properties and we all agreed this one may have been our favorite. We want to come back in the summer and jump off the boathouse!

Lovely Place with a Great Host

Idle Speed was a good fit for our family, nice bedrooms and lots of porches and a well-equipped kitchen. Lots of places for people to be together as well as have some quiet time, both indoors and out. As noted by others, it’s important to be aware of the stairs that need to be used to get to and from the lake and the boathouse. Ali was a pleasure to deal with, fast and responsive.

Good but a few glitches

Our stay was fine. There were a few items we expected that were deficient (only 3 dish towels, not enough dish washer soap) but these were resolved by our hosts giving us access to their locked closets. The inside of the house was clean but the outside of most windows had an amazing collection of spider webs which are a bit off putting. The recycle bin at the top of the driveway (Bear proof) is not big enough. When we arrived it was full (waiting for Monday pickup) and there was more in the bin in the garage. After pickup on Monday we filled it up by Wednesday evening and ended up using the garage bin for the rest of the week. The pontoon boat arrangements went well until Friday when we went to the Gas Dock and found it closed. We contacted your boat man and he was very helpful. He filled it on Saturday and sent us a receipt. We reimbursed him through Venmo. He also made a special trip to fix a bolt on the canopy frame that had lost its nut. There were a couple of screws on the kayaks that needed tightening. The owners gave us access to their toolbox so we were able to fix those problems. Overall it went well and we appreciated the support from the owners and the boat man to resolve the problems we did have. Rob Stotz

Lake Lure

We loved everything! I think my only complaint would be you can hear everything in the house. And I mean everything. No sleeping late (and I mean past 6:30) with little ones. Also, if you are not in decent shape there are 93 steps to boat deck. Going down is no problem but up can be challenging!

Had to cancel the day of arrival due to real bad weather. The owner very accommodating and was willing to rebook at no charge for a different date during the off season. We ended up not using the home, but we appreciated the offer.

Summer Mini vacation

We had an absolute amazing time here! The house itself was great with the well-stocked kitchen, great bedroom layout, and fun things to do like pool and ping pong. And everyone loved the lake amenities - kayaks, paddle boards, floating water mat, and a great deck to sit and play games and just enjoy the lake. Can't wait to come back and spend more time here!

Great Stay...Rain or Shine!

The house was everything we thought it would be...including the 93 steps to the water! Lots of space for everyone. Beds were very comfy. The extra frig/freezers in the game room and in the boathouse were great! The covered decks were perfect for when the rain set in and to enjoy coffee in the AM while everyone else was still asleep. The game room and the pool table and games made the rainy days fun! We rented the boat for the week which was great to have at our disposal from sunup to sundown. Ali was very responsive and easy to communicate with. FYI...there are bears, deer and coyotes in the area. And as someone else said...the steps are no Joke! Think of it as a built in workout! We've been coming to Lake Lure since our kids were toddlers and now they are 21. Another great week at Lake Lure!
