Elevacres
This was our fifth year staying at Elevacres. We have so enjoyed each visit. Kevin was, again, a great host. Thank you for everything. We will miss your home as our AVL rental, but can’t argue with you wanting that daily view back. Cheers!

GrandView Cabin|Sleeps 10|Close to LL
It was the perfect getaway for our family. It was secluded enough that we could enjoy the quiet but also close to a big store for our needs. The yard being fenced in was a bonus.

We had a great time! The place is beautiful, clean, and in an excellent location within walking distance of many places in town. Also, it was easy to communicate with the management company via chat when needed.

Tranquil country home NW of Asheville w/ Hot Tub
Bruce's house was clean, well taken care of, and exactly as described. Very detailed instructions, along with local recommendations, were laid out in a manual on the dining room table. The area was private and peaceful, and a short drive away from Asheville.

Lake Escape
Great little lake house. Perfect for our family. We were there for the week riding mt bikes(8 minutes to Kanuga, 25 minutes to ride rock and 30 to Pisgah)Came home every night cooked on the grill and then jumped in the hot tub before we walked down to the lake for a little fishing. And everything you could need 8-10 minute drive to downtown Hendersonville. Perfect location. Couldn’t ask for more.

Cabin*3 King Master Bedrooms*Hot Tub*Game Room
This place is a really nice get away. It is not very far off the main highway so it's easily accessible. The cabin itself is nice and private with the nearest neighbor being quite a ways away. I never heard anyone else the entire time we were there. The cabin was nice and clean and the giant wrap around porch made for a great hang out spot. The hot tub was very nice and clean and is where I spent most of my time. Todd was very responsive to any questions I had.

Cozy, lake front cottage
I wish we could leave more stars! The home was gorgeous, clean, and comfortable. Free of clutter and had an excellently stocked kitchen. My husband, 2 year old, and I came for a family getaway before baby #2 is born. We loved the screened porch and fenced back yard, along with large windows to enjoy the lake. The stay was peaceful and just right for some intentional family time. Everything is updated, well made, and sturdy. The kitchen even had nice Tupperware that we used to take snacks in for our kid. The home is about 15 mins from downtown Greer, and about 30 from downtown Greenville. We had a blast exploring both. Kerry even proactively let us know that we could check in early on our day of arrival, which was extremely considerate and helpful. Loved the stay!!!!

Your guide to Lake Lure
All About Lake Lure
Nestled at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains in the heart of Hickory Nut Gorge, Lake Lure is a charming small town with stunning mountain views and a crystal-clear lake from which it takes its name. It’s known in popular culture as a filming location for cult classics, but it’s hardly a touristy stop-over. Less than an hour southeast of Asheville, Lake Lure is one of western North Carolina’s top destinations for outdoor recreation, thanks to its long bays, vast stretches of water, and a beautiful backdrop of mountain scenery. From hiking to birding, summer fishing to winter skiing, the area draws visitors seeking to soak in the beauty of nature from a cozy lakefront home base.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Lake Lure
Lake Lure is located in the Isothermal Belt, famous for its remarkably mild weather despite its location surrounded by mountains. Depending on the season, air may be warmer or cooler on the mountains than the base of the 2,200-foot valley. Summer temperatures peak in the upper 80s Fahrenheit with very little humidity, dropping to the low 60s in the evenings. Winter is cooler: Temperatures average around 50 degrees, dropping to just below freezing once the sun goes down. In spring and summer the mountains act as a kind of insulation, stretching the valley’s warmer periods, making for pleasant seasons year-round.
Top things to do in Lake Lure
Chimney Rock State Park
Bordering Lake Lure is this 8,000-acre state park with hiking trails to accommodate all levels. The park is named for the famous granite monolith towering 315 feet in the air — a must-see for any visitor. It’s accessible by elevator, and on clear days, it provides views of the park and surrounding area for miles around.
Lake Lure Beach and Water Park
Open Memorial Day through Labor Day, the privately owned Lake Lure Beach shoreline stretches 27 miles and features wide expanses of sand perfect for family-friendly play. There’s an admission fee, which includes the water park: its slides, splash pad, and water balloon zone are all big hits with kids on hot summer days.
Tryon and Hendersonville
These two small towns — each about a half-hour from Lake Lure — are unique in their history and culture, and worth checking out on a day trip. South of Lake Lure, Tryon has long been a retreat for writers and artists, as well as a world-renowned hub for equestrian competitions. Equidistant from Tryon and Lake Lure is the small city of Hendersonville, home to an aviation museum and a railroad museum as well as the 12-acre Bullington Gardens.
