The guest bedroom also has a Queen bed & a smaller flat-screen TV & the guest bathroom is also a full bath with a tub/shower combo. "Riverbend at Lake Lure" is a private gated community offering two private lakes (Big Mirror Lake & Little Mirror Lake) that allow for canoes, kayaks, and paddleboats, private access to the Broad River, picnic areas, gazebos, pavilions, hiking trails, beach area, swimming, fishing, and BBQ grills for your enjoyment. There’s an “Old Swimming Hole” along the river and a lovely Nature Walk where you can picnic and enjoy the community waterfall. Outside the gates of Riverbend Development, you’re only 6 miles from downtown Lake Lure and Chimney Rock Village, where you’ll enjoy beautiful sights as well as numerous dining and shopping options! AREA WIDE NOTICE: Lake Lure will undergo a drawdown from January 1st, 2024, through the first quarter of 2024(March 31st). The lake will begin to be lowered by approximately 1 foot per day until 12 feet have 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. For more information, click here. The lake will likely be back up to normal levels by mid to late April. 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. This will not affect the smaller lakes in the area, only Lake Lure itself. No pets, no exceptions Smoking is prohibited in all of our vacation rental homes. Parking 3 vehicles.

Upon arrival, we could not get lock box on door to open. Reached out to Carolina prob, they tried to reset pad with fail. They then called us back after 30 min and informed us of a key lock box under back patio. Next day I placed a small load in washer. Hub and I took a short nap and woke up to washer overflowing and water all over the floor. We cleaned up water for prob an hour. I then contacted Carolina prop again and told them what had happened. The man we spoke with did mention some compensation on the phone. Which I due believe is appropriate for inconveniences. I would have thought Carolina Prop would have reached out by now on their own, but have yet to hear from them. Best contact would be my cell.

Everything looked great from entrance to neighborhood, the sights, place the house is located! We loved it. We had everything that was necessary! We were able to play some board games with our kids, have a cookout, cook food! Being in this house felt so relaxing and cozy. There is not anything to do in December but if you just want to relax and just getaway this is a great destination! We really love the gillford cottage and absolutely would love to come back!

get home before dark you dont want to navigate those country dirt gravel roads at night it is dark out there . my son got lost on the way in wife and baby and was not happy about that scared to death on the back side of the mountain , he did not follow main gate instructions - very important to follow first set of directions then the 2nd - place was spotless . comfy quiet , loved the fire place and back porch - grill caught fire because no cleaned underneath it and we had to use fire extinguisher to put it out . we had no grill entire stay glad i bought insurance so they did not say it was my fault - clearly they could see the 13 inches of junk and gunk in it . was 20 minutes from town because of switch backs but next time were thinking about staying closer to town - . not many perks for the value . but over all nice . we enjoyed the quite reprieve and remoteness . we were definitely alone .

The house was so so clean, and the location perfect for traveling around Lake Lure and Chimney Rock. Slept in comfortable beds with crisp, white sheets, and drank coffee on the back porch every morning while listening to the nearby babbling brook.❤️ Easiest home rental and vacation stay ever! Many thanks!
