We invite you to enjoy our 3 bedroom 1 Bath cabin (1 king, 1 queen, 2 twins in the loft as the third bedroom) in the gated community of Riverbend just 10 minutes east of Lake Lure's public beach. Our cabin is a true retreat, as it sits on five acres of land and is in a serene setting including access to Mirror Lake (seasonal views), Little Mirror Lake and Broad River. Access to Mirror Lake is about a mile away with a private beach for residents and guests to access. Enjoy swimming, tubing, fishing, and boating. No fishing permit needed. We have two standup paddle boards for you, as well as inner tubes, beach chairs, beach towels, and a cooler.

Our egg shaped chairs on the front porch are perfect for sipping lemonade on a warm summer day.

Family Getaway
Our family had a wonderful time at the cabin! It was the perfect place to unwind as a family. We paddle-boarded, swam/lounged on the beach, explored the trails, and hiked Chimney Rock. The house was clean and well-maintained, and the owners were very responsive and organized. Lake Lure and the small surrounding towns are hidden gems. Thank you, Karen, for letting us stay at your place!

Love staying in Riverbend
The cabin is very nice and the location is excellent. We have stayed in Riverbend before, but being on the side of the swimming lake was great!! We really appreciated the ability to use floats and chairs! Nice firepit in the front yard and the fenced in run with the gated porch is perfect for most dogs (our 9 pound mini could get out, but she is fine on a leash). I thought the listing said lake view, but we could not really see the lake from the porch. Maybe in the winter you would see more, but when the trees are full, there really is not a view. That is the only reason for 4 and not 5 stars.

Pre-Anniversary Vacation
We have stayed at this property in the fall, but couldn't wait to get back during the summer months, when the water was a little warmer. We really like the location, the proximity to everything needed and the wildlife. We saw deer and rabbits on or around the property everyday. Our daughter just loved being this close to nature.

Beautiful setting and cabin!
My husband and I and our two dogs visited for a long weekend and highly recommend this cabin. It caught my eye because it's dog-friendly. The cabin is located in a private, gated community that is very wooded and natural - there are plenty of places to walk (if you like hills!), lakes with a private beach and a nature walk. The cabin itself was super cozy and cute. Comfortable beds, nice bathroom, wood-burning fireplace and well-equipped kitchen. Karen was terrific to work with and very responsive. Definitely recommend staying here!

Pup Friendly Beautiful Cabin in the Thick Wooded Mountains
After traveling for two days our 15 year old Amstaff was happy to be greeted with a basket full of dog toys! When you welcome our pup you welcome us! With a secure wrap around porch that leads to a secure fenced grassy area this was the most freedom our dog, Sir Hershel, has experienced! The cabin was clean and fully stocked with all the items needed for cooking and enjoying time in the mountains. Karen (the owner) was a great communicator checking to make sure all was well. She responded to all our inquiries within minutes. She was friendly and welcoming. The owners have gone the extra mile here to make sure it would be a great stay! The area is beautiful with lakes and waterfall hikes. We will be back! This cabin is located in a remote, private mountain community.

Cozy cabin with gorgeous view
I booked this cabin several months ago for a girl's weekend. We looked online at the pictures and thought it looked beautiful but the pictures alone do not do it justice. We loved how the owners have carefully taken attention to detail in making this cabin as cozy and comfortable as possible. All of the creature comforts we needed were provided. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and loved the gorgeous views as we sat on the very comfortable egg chairs on the deck. Will book again!

Thanksgiving 2024
What a great Thanksgiving at this property. The location and views were outstanding. The home was very well equipped and we were able to prepare a wonderful Thanksgiving meal for our family. I was bummed out we couldn’t use the fire pit out side due to a burn ban, but the gas logs in the living room was nice to have. The big toaster oven was a nice touch, it worked nice to cook up some snacks instead of using the oven. Having the fenced in area for dogs was nice to have, and also having the amenities for the dogs was a nice to have as well. Less for us to pack. This was our 3rd trip to Lake Lure, we really enjoy spending time here.

Amazing
Quaint, Private, Quiet - Are all words I’d use to describe this incredible cabin. My family and I had a wonderful experience at this mountain lake escape. We felt like it was the perfect size for our family of 4. Our kids loved the loft, while I spent as much time as possible by the fire pit or fishing. Karen and her husband provided us with all the information we needed to settle in and see the nearby sights. Their cabin and the experience they provided went beyond our expectations. We will be returning soon.

Just what we needed!
Karen was a fabulous host, constantly making sure everything was perfect from things to do in the area to helping us with potential road closures due to Hurricane Michael. Great retreat for the entire family including 2 year old and 2 small dogs. Close proximity to quant little mountain towns/attractions and the fire pit and fire place made it a perfect spot to relax in the evenings and watch a movie. The Verizon Mifi was a lifesaver for anyone who needs internet connection for a tablet or laptop. Would recommend to anyone looking for a little R & R. PS the beds are super comfortable! Thanks!

Great!
Perfect little cabin! There are many little lakes within the community and a quick drive to Lake Lure and Chimney Rock. The cabin was spotless and so cute. The attention to detail was impressive. The kitchen had EVERYTHING you could need and the bathroom had extra shelves and plenty of towel hooks (which frankly, isn’t usual for rentals!). My son and I had fun playing football in the front yard, spotting hummingbirds and deer. We also had fun watching movies from their large collection of DVD’s. If you’re considering staying here, just go ahead and do it!

Spring Break Trip 2017
We had the best time! The cabin was in perfect condition and all the little details from providing laundry and dish detergent (and more!) to having some hot chocolate waiting for us on arrival really made us feel welcome. My kids (3 girls- aged 8, 10 and 12) and our two dogs had a wonderful time exploring the woods around the cabin and having a fire every night in the fire pit (cut wood provided which was so nice!). It is very secluded- I think 2 cars drove by our house in 5 days. About a 2 minute drive away in the neighborhood is a little nature walk with a cool waterfall and we must have spent hours there wading the river and climbing on the rocks. I highly recommend this place and we will definitely be coming back!

Get-a-way vacation
The property was hard to find in the gated community but the property owners gave great directions once in the community. As far as the property, it was everything that the owners said it would be. Everyone in our party loved the layout. I will be asking the owners for their builder". It was very dog friendly and well stocked. Also,, it was close to everything we wanted to do , once we got out of the communiity. Only downfall, was having to drive in and out of the community, A very winding road. But that the nature of everything in and out of the community. We would recommend this place for anyone wanting to get away.

Good Get Away
Overall the property was just as described with no major issues. My only concerns were: 1. Dog poop was found in the loft area under the bed when arrived. It was not our dog's either. 2. No firewood was provided. There was some in the pit we were able to use but not what as stated in the ad. I would not hesitate to come back to this place and view these issues as minor. It was a great time and relaxing.

Great Cottage in a Great Location!
We had a wonderful time at the Mountain Lake Escape! We saw deer every day we were there. We enjoyed the beach every day as well. It was never very crowded, and the other residents/renters we encountered at the beach were friendly and polite. On our last day we decided to take our rafts and ride down the river to the Old Swimming Hole. We had a blast doing it, and only wished we hadn't waited until the last day to try it. The proximity to Lake Lure and Chimney Rock was nice as well. We also ended up in Rutherford quite a bit, as rain hampered our opportunities to do things outside on a few of the days. In Rutherford we discovered the Corner BBQ, which doesn't look like much, but had great BBQ and other sandwiches. And don't miss Mimi's Dairy-O for pizza and ice cream! We enjoyed everything that the cottage had to offer. We can't wait to go back!

Wonderful Cabin
This beautiful and cozy cabin was a great find! It is located close to a grocery store and Lake Lure, but our favorite part was the fact that there is a fairly large lake in the gated community (Mirror Lake), which we used almost everyday. This is huge because Lake Lure doesn't have a FREE public place to swim... you have to pay to use the beach there. We would have been really bummed out if we would have had to pay to swim everyday. Mirror Lake also has really good fishing, and a little area for roasting s'mores and picnic tables for lunch, etc. The cabin itself is really cozy, super clean and well equipped. Karen was such a help with directions and very responsive to anything we asked. We plan on coming back soon someday we hope! Highly recommend! Thanks Karen and family for sharing your place!
