Luremont Cottage-Original lake home, 4bd2ba sleeps 10 walk to beach

This has classic rustic charm with lots of big rooms and bedrooms for the family. During one of the hottest weeks in the summer, this house is always shaded by lots of trees. So we were able to sit on the porches to get fresh air. From the porch on the weekend, we could hear live music in the afternoon from the Grill down the street, which we enjoyed. We liked being able to walk to places to eat, the beach and a good location to walk for exercise. There are stairs to enter the house, their are about 6-7 stairs to a bathroom so definitly for the able-bodied person. There's no Keurig The owners were always available and checked in a few times to make sure everything was going well. We would stay here again.

It is bigger than the pictures make it look. In a great location walking distance to the beach. Kitchen is extremely well stocked. Plenty of outside seating and nice grill. Could use a bit more light inside but that depends on feel you are looking for. Communication and responsiveness were excellent. Overall great cabin.

House was a perfect get away for our group

This cottage was perfect for our mini family vacation. I am absolutely in love with this old cottage and all its charm. It is exactly what I think a mountain/lake cottage should be. The floor plan was great, allowing our group to all be together in the large living/dining space, or outside on the deck, porch, or patio; but it also gave everyone their own private space as well. My 6 year granddaughter, after touring the house and bedrooms, promptly declared the “secret room” (the upstairs room with the full size bed) as hers. My grandkids, ages 10 months to 6 years, had so much fun with the blocks and toys provided, and we read quite a few bedtime books from the little children’s library upstairs. We used every outdoor space multiple times. On Friday and Saturday nights, we enjoyed sitting on the back deck talking while also listening to the live music floating up the hill from Lured Market. Sadly, the beach is closed this time of year, as my grandchildren would have loved to play in the sand and get their feet wet. The only slight disappointment was that the fire pit had been removed from the property, apparently needing to be repaired. We had been looking forward to an outdoor fire to make s’mores. Suggestion: a portable baby gate for the stairs, and maybe a few extra blankets for the beds as needed. You can feel the love and fun family times of old that infuse the wood of the gorgeous old cottage! I would rent again in a minute!

Gorgeous and convenient location, stunning architecture, lovely amenities and overall charming environment! Highly recommend!!

House is situated close to a lot of site seeing/hike trails. We visited in June, the beach was overcrowded on weekends. The sounds from the beach area are loud…the house was wonderful. Old, historic. Kitchen well stocked. Parking was tight. We enjoyed our stay.

We truly enjoyed staying in this cottage. It sleeps 12, but was extremely roomy for our party of 5 adults. We loved the old style farmers kitchen sink and the claw foot bath tubs. Although the ladies in the group are short and found it a little difficult getting into and out of the tubs. There were several drawbacks we had for this property. One was the lack of cell service. We were in town for a wedding and had absolutely no way of communicating with other family members. No calls or texts could be made or received from the cottage. There was cell service about 2.5 miles away at Ingles grocery store. We wish that there could have been a land line in the house. My concern was if there was a medical emergency in the middle of the night, we could not call 911. Also, the fire pit outside would not light. We called to report it and it was not repaired at the time of our departure. And lastly, the drains in the main bathroom for the sink and bathtub were very slow to drain. Minor issues, other than lack of cell service. We had such a great time at the cottage and visiting Lake Lure. It is a great place to stay to get away from the hustle and bustle of today's world!

Wonderful home with the perfect character for family time. What cherished memories were made! Highly recommend!

We love the residence. It was the perfect location for the Dirty Dancing Festival. Will definitely use them again.

Nice old property shaded by nice big trees. Good times.
