Vacation rentals with a kayak in Lake Lure

Jake was very accommodating. With the Hurricane destruction that had occurred, Jake still went out of his way to make sure myself and the guests were heard and seen and made to feel safe.

I had a wonderful stay here with my kids and aunt during Thanksgiving. It was a peaceful, relaxing stay with plenty of space to spread out. The location was convenient to everywhere we wanted to go, and it’s especially near to the airport, while still being in a beautiful, rural area. Steven was extremely communicative, quick to respond when I had questions. Love this home and hope to be back next time I visit family in Asheville!

The location, cleanliness and spaciousness of the home was perfect. It was our first Lake rental that ever felt like home and we could live there. The kids absolutely loved their time. The provided amenities were perfect for the family. The hot tub was unfortunately unusable during our stay but it was able to be fixed by the time we left for the next guest. We told our friends who stayed around the peninsula from us all about how perfect it was and we couldn’t recommend it more. Definitely give this home and hosts another look!

The house was awesome couldn’t have asked for a better place. We will stay there again next year. If you want to stay at a great place by a beautiful lake and beautiful creek this is the place.

We booked with Ian last second due to our previous airbnb not being ready and the hot tub was broken… Ian was quick in action to have cleaners get to the house before we finished biltmore, the house was beautiful and very clean, we enjoyed the privacy his house had to offer! This property we stayed at was by far the best house and the cleanest of all properties I have ever stayed at! The property is VERY close to downtown Asheville!! 10/10 recommend booking with this host!!

This property was gorgeous and private in the western North Carolina mountains. The barn was spacious and the bathroom was magical. A very good place to stay if you want a rural retreat and still want to go to downtown Asheville.

This was our third stay at Lake James and this house had the best view by a wide margin. We had a beautiful view of the lake and mountains. The place was a great fit for our family. Bruce always responded in a timely fashion. If this house is available for our next trip to NC, we would definitely book this house again.

Our stay was great, everything was as pictured/described. The recommendations for local restaurants were appreciated! The bottle of wine and cans of sparkling water were great!

The cabin is beautiful and peaceful which is what our family was looking for. We enjoyed all of the amenities, and the kindness Michelle showed our family. It was clean and offered everything you needed to cook and enjoy your surroundings, even a BBQ and smoker. The beds were comfortable, and linens were good quality. Lots of extra towels if necessary. Thank you, Michelle. We enjoyed your lovely cabin in the woods.

Perfect little spot. This was a cozy place, had everything we needed and nothing we didn’t. Super clean and cute… and great communication. The neighborhood is adorable too. Thanks gang!

It was such a wonderful stay my family and I had on this beautiful property. We had 5 adults and 4 smaller kiddos, this home was perfect for us. The kids loved playing in the creek ( so did us adults) the outdoor space was so relaxing as we played games, picnicked and watched movies. We also got to spend two nights watching and catching fireflies! The surrounding area had many waterfalls and nature areas to see that were only a short drive away. Lake jocassee was only a 45 minute drive from the house which was worth it to see the beautiful waterfalls and clear waters the lake has to offer. In all the home was a perfect gem that our whole family enjoyed.

Martha is a real Jewel! So helpful and always responsive to any request. What a beautiful property more than worth the cost! I would highly recommend this host and property for any stay in the Inman and Spartanburg area. Drew Conner 11/24

We do a family trip every year and try to keep in mind things to do as well as accommodations to suit the range of ages. This home checked all the boxes, it was accessible for the grandparents and the layout provided a peaceful place for them to relax while the active members of our family played with all the amenities and games provided. Although the weather during our stay prohibited us from venturing out to hike as much as we liked there were options for entertainment at the house. All the little touches made it extremely convenient and a very pleasant stay. If you needed something they already thought of it. The welcome bag and packet of information was like a cherry on top. They even thought to leave an Ingles card! Sometimes it's the little things. Very responsive to any questions and provided clear instructions for your stay. Highly recommend, enjoy your stay in this wonderful neighborhood. Definitely check out the neighborhood trails, 100% recommend it.

The Lake Summit Nest, Dock and Boathouse exceeded our expectations! It was truly a place where we were able to retreat and rest amid beautiful, tranquil surroundings. The accommodations were immaculate and the kitchen replete with every tool we needed to prepare the meals we ate there. Wonderful coffee, a fridge and cabinets stocked with thoughtful purchases enhanced our experience and enjoyment. There were dozens of special touches that only an empathetic host would think to provide that made our stay more convenient and pleasant. To list them all would be impossible. Melinda is a superb host! There’s so much to do in the area, as well as being a true haven of quiet rest. The boat dock, with its kayaks, SUP boards and opportunities for water play were great. My husband had fun catching fish from the dock and the kayak. We have stayed in many Airbnbs in the U.S. and other countries and The Nest will stand out in our memories as the best!

Wonderful getaway for the family! The kids had the adventure we wanted away from the city. We had zero allergy issues, a few of us have allergy and asthma challenges and this home was clean and allergen free for us! We spent most mornings with coffee and either board games or exploring, the days on the lake with the kayaks and canoes, then nights around the fire with burgers and s’mores. Wonderful place for our family of 5. Thank you!

The house was perfect for our crew and the location--nestled at the end of a quiet street--made it even better.

The Cabin was beautiful and wonderful place for a group of doctors to gather for an annual meeting. Alberto was really wonderful about accommodating our group when our previous reservations fell through at the last minute. I would highly recommend staying here. Hard to find a more beautiful location and spacious, private place to gather.

The place was beautiful and very nice for a mountain getaway. We really enjoyed the hot tub, and the place is dog friendly too! Rohin and Michelle were very responsive and kind.

We loved our stay! Kendall was very communicative throughout our time here and her husband met us when we checked in to greet us and make sure we got in okay. We felt comfortable and right at home!

This place was fantastic! The location was perfect to explore the many waterfalls, go for hikes, visit breweries, go tubing and relax in a hot tub in the woods. The space was perfect for our family of four. We hope to head back sometime soon. The hosts were great and thoughtful.

Meagan is a fantastic host, and her house is beautiful. We enjoyed all the provided outdoor toys on the river; which pictures do not capture its beauty! Beyond being extremely clean, the house has everything you need to make meals, enjoy the hot tub, and make smores around the fire. Unloading and packing up is a breeze using the lift. The location is private, but the town is within a 20-minute drive. I highly recommend checking out this place!!!

Perfect house for a family gathering, large enough but cozy due to being very well laid out. We were 6 adults, 1 child, and 2 dogs, enough space for all with plenty of bathrooms. All the little touches such as all electrical switches & silverware trays clearly labeled, top notch towels & bed linens, beds made, well stocked kitchen, children & pets accomodated, made us feel like VIPs. The cabin is clean & well maintained, easily accessed with sufficient & easy parking, close to Brevard, DuPont State Recreational Forest, etc., but away from the hustle & bustle. Great mountain views. Sandy is very responsive & friendly. We can't wait to go back!

The house itself was beautiful and spacious. Plenty of room for our extended family. We went to Chimney Rock and Biltmore before the unwanted visitor. We unfortunately were there during Hurricane Helene, so we were without power and had difficulty getting out due to trees in the road and had to cut our trip short. Of course none of this could have been prevented or expected. We were thankful to have the grill outside once the electricity went out. Neighbors and vacationers alike helped to clear the road of the trees. To say this vacation is memorable would be an understatement. We will keep the entire area in our thoughts and prayers for a quick recovery.

Quiet and peaceful place to relax and still close to town. Great covered porch, it rained while we were there and it was nice to still be able to sit outside and enjoy the sound!
