*** Lake Lure will be undergoing a drawdown starting January 1st, through the first quarter (March 31st). The lake will begin to be lowered by approximately 1 foot per day until 12 feet has been reached. Infrastructure maintenance, dredging, and dam projects will be expedited during this time frame. These efforts by the Town of Lake Lure may affect access to the lake and restrict any lake usage. The lake will likely be back up to normal levels by mid to late April. No personal watercraft will be allowed on the lake during this time. While we understand this is an inconvenience, this does allow you to enjoy the full beauty of Lake Lure in the fall and holiday season. For more information about the annual lake drawdown, please contact the Town of Lake Lure.

Thank you in advance for being super guests!

Highly recommend. Cabin was within 5 minutes to the grocery store, and 10 minutes to lake lure beach. Came equipped with everything you need for your stay. Hot tub and game room were awesome for kids. We even got to see bears multiple times here. Beautiful area and beautiful cabin.

Great cabin
Beautiful cabin minutes from the lake. Had issues with the AC that were not rectified leading to an earlier than scheduled departure from the property due to the temps at the time while we were there. Not the fault of the owner, but the inexperienced tech they sent out twice to try to fix the problem.

Perfect getaway cabin
Typically, I take my kids to the beach but they wanted to try something new, so we opted for a shorter drive to Lake Lure. My kids actually picked out this cabin because they were drawn to the lofts and gaming options in the basement, as well as the hot tub. I also enjoyed the idea of these amenities since it was just me and the kids, especially in the event of some rainy weather. The cabin was actually nicer in person and more spacey than anticipated. My daughter and her friend loved having their own bathroom with direct access through the bedroom they shared. My son and I shared the other and didn't mind having to go through the kitch to our bathroom. While the kids didn't sleep in the lofts, they enjoyed climbing up and spending some time up there. The kitchen was loaded with everything we needed, which was helpful, given we immediately went to Ingles (very close by) to get groceries, as we wanted to have some meals in to curb spending. While it wasn't ideal that you had to go outside to access the basement, it ended up not being an issue at all for us. The kids (and I) loved some downtime playing ping pong, pool and shooting some hoops on the basketball game. While I didn't get in the hot tub, it was a nightly ritual for my kids who absolutely loved it. Additionally, this was the first trip we had taken our dog on, so I loved that this was a pet-friendly cabin. Great stay and I'm glad we tried something new this summer!

Quiet and relaxing
We enjoyed our stay, the game room in the basement was a nice bonus. One suggestion - bring flashlights and or candles as we lost power the first night and we were completely in the dark as there was not any in the cabin!

A relaxing getaway...with a bear!
A homey, small cabin with a lovely porch and a roomy basement that had ping pong and pool tables. We didn't use the fire pit because we saw a bear in the trash on multiple occasions and were timid about being out there! Could have used firmer mattresses, softer pillows, and a full length mirror - otherwise, a nice time!

We returned to Lake Lure 23 years after honeymooning in the area. It’s more beautiful than we remembered! Lots to do: hiking, boating, beach and more! The Wandering Inn was the perfect place to enjoy the area with its own fabulous spaces: game room, fire pit and rocking chair time on the porch. Loved every aspect of our trip!
