Bear Creek Retreat - Cabin in LLVR gated community Lake Lure now Welcomes YOU!

UPDATED ADDENDUM: After months of cleanup and recovery from Hurricane Helene, the area is ready—and we’re welcoming guests again!
Our cabin is in great shape, and all our favorite local cafes and restaurants are open and thriving.
There’s plenty to explore, from peaceful lake days to mountain views, hiking trails, and golf!

If you’ve been waiting for the right time to unplug and recharge—this is it. And your visit helps support a community that’s worked so hard to bounce back. Come breathe it in.

Escape to an incredible lakeside community when you stay in our cabin offering home-away-from-home essentials, like a fully equipped kitchen, a Smart TV, and washer & dryer. There are two spacious king bedrooms with en suite bathrooms for your comfort and a peaceful, covered porch with rocking chairs and a swing. One of the bathrooms has a jetted bathtub to relax after a day of adventure!

Our "little slice of paradise" is nestled in the Lake Lure Village Resort, boasting a private community beach, scenic trail to a private waterfall, and a lookout point over Lake Lure.

Downtown Lake Lure is 2.5 miles away, and Asheville is a beautiful 45 minute drive away. Our favorite hike, Party Rock, can be accessed walking from our cabin!

Your safety matters. This property features a Ring floodlight device with an exterior security camera facing the front outdoor entry and driveway. The camera does not look into any interior spaces or the private porch. The camera actively records video and sound when motion is detected by the device.

SPECIAL NOTE: This is a non-smoking/non-vaping property. NO smoking, or vaping allowed in the cabin or on the porch. Violators will be charged an additional cleaning fee and potentially additional charges should we need to block dates to sufficiently clean and air out smoke odor.

Lake Lure gated community house
This is our 2nd year to stay in this Lake Lure house. We love the gated, quiet neighborhood that borders the lake with a marina and sandy beach. It’s a great place to walk and explore the creek,waterfall and marina. We’ll definitely be back!!

Elopement stay
We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful lake cabin. It was just what we needed for our wedding elopement at Cabin Heaven in Hendersonville. Jon was amazing at communicating with us the whole stay. It was quite and peaceful. After a long day of celebrating our elopement with family and friends we enjoyed the relaxing jacuzzi and had a great nights sleep! We highly recommend staying here and will be back soon! Thank you!

very happy with stay
Every part of our 3 night stay here was spot on. communication with owners was friendly and helpful. the resort location is quiet, lovely, and walking distance to a small waterfall and beautiful views of lake. We enjoyed walking around the resort and looking at the homes and large properties. The outside of the duplex is not fancy but the inside was newly renovated and generously furnished. Our favorites were the front porch swing overlooking a lovely rose of sharon bush and the mountainside, and comfy king mattress and bedding. The hot tub was wonderful after hiking chimney rock and exploring ! The kitchen had everything needed for food prep. Short drive to Lake Lure and Chimney Rock. If you like hiking, good food, breweries and wineries, this is your place. Check out eating on the deck waterfront at Highlands in downtown chimney rock, ice cream across from lake lure beach and enjoy wine, a good meal and live music at Burntshirt winery with an amazing view of Chimney Rock Mt. There is a quaint brewery called Whistletop housed in a railroad cars a 30 min drive away which is a must see with really good beer. recommend this spot 100%.

Peaceful, accommodating, clean, and relaxing
The property is well maintained, very clean, in a quiet development/community, and not far from the lake. We had no issues checking in or out and our stay there was relaxing, even if it was only for one night. I would definitely stay there again! To to the couple/family that own this property.... you have a good spot waiting on you when you retire! :)

Nicely Renovated Duplex
This unit, which is part of a duplex, appears to have been renovated recently and is very attractive with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and large and attractive bathrooms and bedrooms. We found the bed to be comfortable and loved the large front porch.. The television is very large as well though it was initially a bit confusing to use for older folks who are used to cable. The unit sits on the lower end of the neighborhood which limits Views of the mountains but the nearby access to the Lake and the views there are absolutely beautiful. As with many places in the mountains, cell service can be inconsistent. However we would happily stay here again and recommend this unit. The owners have added many extra touches to make it an inviting place to stay.
