And we remain a Vrbo/HomeAway Premier Partner because of our demonstrated commitment to providing fast response times, the best rates, and great guest experiences.

A brief description of our beautiful cedar log cabin home features is set forth below, as well as a bit of local trivia. We look forward to hosting the time of your life at The Overlook at Lake Lure!

A Little Trivia: “Dirty Dancing” was filmed in Lake Lure! If you plan your visit in mid-September, you can take advantage of a Dirty Dancing highlight – the annual Dirty Dancing Festival in Lake Lure. Founded in 2010, a year after Patrick Swayze’s premature death and 23 years after the film debut, the Dirty Dancing Festival is a celebration of the inspiration, courage and love that Johnny and Baby instilled in legions of fans worldwide. Featuring live movie-inspired music and dancing, watermelon races, shag competitions, dance lessons, Kellerman’s Talent Show, a lakeside screening of the film and, of course, opportunities to attempt the famous lake lift, everyone comes to the Dirty Dancing Festival to “have the time of their life.

A Little More Trivia: Chimney Rock State Park is proud to have been one of the filming locations for the famous movie Last of the Mohicans.” The iconic backdrop was shown in the last 20 minutes of the movie! The waterfall scene, the fight scene and bathing scene were all filmed at Chimney Rock State Park! If you are in the area be sure to stop in at Chimney Rock State Park, where you can stand at the base of the famous Hickory Nut Falls, the waterfall in the movie!

Visit North Carolina named Chimney Rock one of the best places for mountain hiking in all of North Carolina. Once you reach the peak of your Chimney Rock hike, you will enjoy wonderful 360-degree views - and - if you look carefully, you might even be able to see our cabin!

When you head back to our cabin to relax on our upper and lower decks and enjoy the spectacular mountain views, you will even see Chimney Rock. And you will love the luxurious amenities featured throughout our spacious log cabin home.

We are dedicated to ensuring that our home is always your home away from home so we make ourselves available to our guests 24/7 to ensure that our guests have everything they need before and during their getaway with us. And we remain a Vrbo/HomeAway Premier Partner because of our demonstrated commitment to providing fast response times, the best rates, and great guest experiences. We look forward to hosting the time of your life at The Overlook at Lake Lure!

While your security is important to us, absolutely no surveillance devices are ever used inside the property. Nor are any surveillance devices ever used outside the property during your stay with us. To the contrary, all outdoor surveillance devices are deactivated during your stay. For security purposes only and only when no guests are at our cabin (especially due to the secluded location of our cabin), surveillance devices such as SMART doorbells and cameras are used outside the cabin and face away from the cabin. There are SMART doorbells on both the front and back doors (facing outside of the cabin) - again, these devices are not active during your stay with us (note that the devices light up when they are active). There are also SMART overhead cameras outside each entrance (facing outside of the cabin) - again, these devices are not active during your stay with us (note that the devices light up when they are active). Even if any security devices were active during your stay - which they are not - no camera is located in any area where guests have a reasonable expectation of privacy. Please note that all hosts are required by Vrbo/HomeAway to disclose their security systems on property descriptions.

The above description is just a brief summary of our beautiful cedar log cabin home. If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact us 24/7.

We look forward to hosting your awesome getaway at The Overlook at Lake Lure!

    The house was incredible. The view off of the back porch was beautiful and the location is super private and quiet. The house itself is well stocked for cooking and has plenty of beds. The game room has all the essentials. The pool table has seen some better days but it is a vacation rental after all.

    The sunset views are unmatched! The privacy was a welcome treat as well. The cabin has loads of entertainment options, and is quite spacious. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking most meals. The host communication was quick and responsive. The gas fire pit on the covered porch is a dream- the ease of use has me looking to replace our wood fire pit at home with a propane version. (The firewood pit is down the backyard steep hill and there was no seating, so we never purchased the wood to use it)The cabin is convenient to hiking and shopping in Chimney Rock, and a little less than an hour from downtown Asheville for shopping and dining. We are already talking to friends about coming back for another fall break!

    We can’t say enough about this gem with a fantastic view and location in a gated community! Plenty of space for the family to spread out. Everything about this cabin we loved, mostly the layout of the gameroom with the adjacent theatre room, king sized bedroom and full bath on the lower level. The loft area above the main floor was a hit as well. Well stocked kitchen. Look out from the deck and you can see Chimney Rock. A fantastic find!

    View from the cabin was amazing and everyone enjoyed watching the sunrise and sunset from the upper deck. The pool table and virtual pinball machine were a hit, along with the natural gas fire pit. The property was in a gated commuity, but there were no neighbors near the property, making it feel secluded and just like the cabin in the mountains we were going for.

    First of all, Matt and Katie are wonderful host. They are quick to respond if needed. Cabin was beautiful with a breath taking view. The kids 6-13 enjoyed the game room and had a space to do their own thing. Kitchen was equipped with everything we needed to prepare meals for all 10 of us. Plenty of sitting both dining room and living room. Beds were comfortable. Grocery store is 5 miles away and Walmart is 30 minutes. Wonderful cabin- plan to stay again next year.

    We had a great time with our family . Very relaxing weekend, enjoyed the game room. Our first night a hail storm came through and power was out for hours. The generator never came on. Second day got very warm and couldn't get cabin cool the air conditioner would run some then turn off.. Third day we experience violent shaking during breakfast and later found out it was an earthquake. The TV s were hard to navigate instructions would have been helpful.

    Beautiful home! The family and i thought this place came with a hot tub but unfortunately we misunderstood this (it was our fault) We loved the view and how kind of secluded it is from other houses. We reached the owner and they were so quick to respond to any of our questions. The kitchen had almost everything needed pots, pans, utentils and even seasonings, if youre a coffee lover like me they have plenty of that. The stove top was not as clean, it seemed like the people that clean didnt try hard enough and master bathroom also needed some cleaning. Unfortunately we didnt get to try the pit but the game area was fun for kids and adults. Also, chimney rock is about 20-25 minute ride, the place wont be open until May according to what the website says. Overall this place is very nice and it makes you feel right at home. I would 100% recommend it!

    We loved The Overlook at Lake Lure! The cabin is perfect for a family or for a couple’s get-away. We celebrated our anniversary here and hope to return. The view is breath-taking, the neighborhood is quiet and safe, but you don’t feel like you’re in a neighborhood. The cabin is beautiful and has everything you would want/need - WiFi, smart TVs (at least four), cozy couches, comfortable beds, well-equipped kitchen and bathrooms and fun games like foosball, pool, pinball, Frogger, Galaga, etc. The outdoor deck has a gas grill, many chairs and a gas firepit table. We appreciated the alarm and when we sent a message through VRBO about it, the owner responded quickly and was very helpful. We were fortunate to have the view of many beautiful sunsets over the mountains. Even if we hadn’t been lucky with the weather, we would absolutely give this cabin five stars because the rating is about the cabin and the cabin is fantastic!

    My family (7 adults and 2 children aged 8 and 12) had an awesome time. The location was perfect. The neighborhood, although somewhat of a climb, was all paved so it was easy to acccess. The house was perfect with amazing views from the living room, master, play room, and deck. We loved the gas firepit on the deck, just hanging out and staring at the view. The kids and adults played pool and other games for hours. Wish we could have stayed longer and will definitely consider renting this house again.
