lower level GETS COLD IN WINTER
loved just about everything in cabin. loved communication w owner. loved the area BUT the lower level/ BASEMENT is too cold to stay in. BOTH in daytime & nighttime. our crew just slept in living room. defeated the purpose of another bedroom & bunkbeds since no one wanted to sleep in the COLD. owner did say she had a heater but we did not find it anywhere. other than that we LOVED our stay we booked first week of December!!

Great Cabin
Our family really enjoyed staying at this cozy cottage. It was clean, quiet, and great proximity to all amenities. It had plenty of space and the 3 separate floors allowed for privacy for each family. We highly recommend!

Great Stay in Riverbend!
We had an amazing time! The cabin was clean and spacious! Huge wraparound deck with a porch swing and rocking chairs that we enjoyed nightly. The swimming hole and river in the community were so much fun. Close to lake lure and chimney rock. Overall a great stay!

Amazing and beautiful place to stay.
What an amazing place to stay and beautiful! The only thing we didn’t like was that it did not state in the description should say we needed a 4x4 vehicles. We brought two cars and one ALMOST tipped over. Please take the Baptist Church route as shown in the description. Be advised the other route is VERY steep. Also one of the gate cards doesn’t work.

Log Cabin near Lake Lure
We had a very nice, quiet, peaceful 5 nights at the cabin. I can't remember the description on the VRBO site, but basically I think the cabin and the description matched. I recall comments about the driveway, and indeed, it is very steep, but as long as you keep to the right hand side, it's doable. The deck was wonderful, and we sat there every morning. The weather was quite hot, but the A/C worked well. We were 5, but 8 could sleep comfortably as long as 6 of them are happy sharing queen size beds. If you have kids, there is one bunk bed for 2 kids (or adults). The cabin could use a few things. The kitchen needs bowls and teaspoons (there are 2 of each). The lighting in the main room is pretty dark, especially if you want to do a puzzle, but there isn't a good puzzle table anyway. We did a couple that we brought, but it meant we couldn't eat at the dining table. We had no issues, so didn't need to communicate with the owners. I feel confident they would have responded quickly had we needed them. Overall it was a very nice interlude.

Wonderful summer vaca
Absolutely beautiful cabin which kind of felt like a treehouse with the lovely wrap around porch rockers, swing and jacuzzi. Liz has thought of everything beautifully decorated with very comfortable beds. I would recommend 4 wheel drive as driveway is slippery we needed it when it rained. Also, it is not directly on lake a short drive to the lake. Cabin has use of kayaks and paddleboards which was great as well.

A delightful cabin!
We truly enjoyed our stay here! The cabin is well laid out with plenty of room for everyone. We LOVED spending evenings on the wrap around porch playing games and grilling out. It is remote enough to really feel like you can "get away from it all", but close enough to things like restaurants, shops, grocery store, hiking, and lake activities.

Peaceful & Relaxing
We really enjoyed our stay at this cabin, the area was close enough to the main road yet remote enough to be peaceful and relaxing. We brought our little French Bulldog and she soooooo loved the deck, it has a locking gate that allowed her to enjoy the outdoors without concern of her curiosity tempting her to wander off. Liz was great accommodating late night arrivals for part of us. She was also awesome and in constant contact with us when power was lost due to a truck hitting a nearby power line. Even with unforseen situations out of her control, she was on the phone with the power company and we had power restored in about an hour. Thank you Liz😊

Owner unresponsive. Listed amenities not as advertised.
This is the only time in 15 years of using VRBO and other platforms that I've encountered an unresponsive owner and a property without the listed amenities. And the Only time I've given a low rating. There have been minor issues, but the other owners were responsive and either fixed the issue or explained why it couldn't be fixed immediately. The only thing this owner did was have housekeeping drop off two dishtowels. Then she stopped communicating. The PlayStation didn't work. We tried to fix it. Owner said that she had no idea how to fix it and that it wasn't a listed amenity. It WAS in the listing. We didn't have access to the boats until Tuesday. Day 4. We let the owner know that both sinks in main level bathroom were backing up. She never responded. During a power outage, because the house didn't have a backup generator, or at least a mini generator for the fridge and water pump, 1) we had to drive 40 miles round trip at night for ice to save our food. 2) we had no water for drinking, flushing or showering. 3) it was a hot, sticky, sleepless night. No window screens. There were 10 towels and 8 washcloths. We were constantly doing laundry, in order to have clean towels and washcloths for everyone. The steep driveway and small parking area was a pain to navigate, every time we arrived and departed. Third vehicle in must drive down to the street to let vehicles #1 or #2 out. Mirror Lake is beautiful. FYI: The water is full of duck poop.

Great getaway for our family of 6
Nice spacious cabin. Cute little community beach, river/creek, Ingles, and Dollar General nearby. Short (45 minute) drive to the Blue Ridge Parkway. It was a very quiet neighborhood. Our 2 year old enjoyed running around in the cabin and on the beach. The teenagers loved walking down to the lake and fishing and canoeing. A great time was had by all! There was so much to do so close by that we rarely left the community…we’re a pretty laid-back type of family though. I would love to stay here again.

Not quite what we expected, but made the best of it!
I had emailed the property owners a few days before arrival with some questions regarding the property, and received no response. Upon arriving, we found that the cabin was not very clean. It appeared the housekeeping staff had just done a quick once over. With spending a decent amount in a cleaning fee, I would hope they would have at least gotten the cobwebs down. The property is listed as a 4 bedroom, however upon arrival, it is truly a three bedroom home with a set of bunk beds in the downstairs common area. Additionally, the drive way to access the property is extremely steep. From the road you cannot see the top of the driveway, which makes access difficult. You are almost completely blind when pulling up to the house. It also says in the listing that the lake is within walking distance. This may be true for adults, but for younger children, this simply is a not an option. The community was pleasant and we were within driving distance to the town of Chimney Rock which was nice. Overall, the accommodations were fair and we had a great time spending time with our extended family.

We had an absolute wonderful time during our stay. The house was perfect for us and we enjoyed relaxing both inside and outside. My daughter and I enjoyed the porch swing, we saw a herd of 9 deer one day! The driveway was a bit tricky but we figured it out. The kitchen had everything anyone one could want. We all enjoyed the hot tub. This is a perfect place to relax and recharge.

On cold days, the cabin was cozy to lounge in and sit by the indoor fireplace. dogs were happy as well. sooo relaxing! hosts also responded promptly when I had questions.

Why they chose this property

We started building this cabin in 2015 in Riverbend. We fell in love with this property . It is on the side of a mountain in a very secluded area and the deer and turkey are abundant. The large wrap around deck is the perfect spot to rock and just relax and enjoy the wildlife.
