About this property

Romantic Lake Lure Retreat. Perfect to celebrate your anniversary on a budget!

Wood working aficionados are sure to appreciate Carl's craftsmanship, as well as those looking to build a tiny home of their own. This 440 sq ft retreat is the perfect getaway to celebrate a last minute anniversary, or to have a honeymoon on a budget!

A Touch of Whimsy Cabin is a brand new listing. To read the 5 star reviews of Carl's other property, search for A Touch of Luxury Cabin, (Vrbo does not allow hosts to post direct links to their other properties).

This romantic cabin is one of four properties that share 20 acres of land. The cabin has it's own private drive with fenced-in backyard, giving guests plenty of privacy away from the other cabins. It is centrally located to the popular tourist activities in Lake Lure, Mill Spring, and Chimney Rock.

Get lost in a book on the front covered porch, cook kabobs on the charcoal grill, or dine in on the screened-in back porch. A complimentary bundle of firewood is provided for each night of your stay (to use at the fire pit).

The living room/kitchen area has a 50 inch smart Vizio tv. Netflix is provided, or guests may log into their own streaming apps to watch their favorite shows while eating at the kitchen bar.

The bedroom has a 43 inch smart TCL tv (with Netflix), comfortable queen bed, and a white noise machine to help lull you to sleep. Minimal light shines through the closed blinds, ensuring guests can pleasantly rest throughout the morning.

With amenities like a well stocked kitchen, AC, hair dryer, and WiFi, you'll have most everything you need for a comfortable stay. The Lake Lure Ingles grocery store is conveniently located right down the road from the cabin, and is an easy place to stop and pick up charcoal if needed.

Excellent launching pad for exploring the charming towns of Mill Spring, Lake Lure, Columbus, Tryon, Saluda, as well as great for taking day trips to Asheville, Blowing Rock, Black Mountain, Hendersonville, and more!

Beautiful quiet cabin
We loved our weekend stay at the cabin. The cabin was beautiful - you can tell a lot of love and hard work went into each detail. Carl met us when we arrived and walked us through the lighting and Bluetooth speakers. The kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed. We used the fire pit once and appreciated having firewood available. The bed was also nice and comfortable. The cabin is located in a quiet neighborhood and felt very secluded. It was perfect for our anniversary getaway. We will definitely consider staying here again!
