Lakefront Mountain Getaway. Quiet cove perfect for water activities, fire pit.

Beautiful lakefront vacation home.

We are located at the back of our cove facing west for best views of beautiful sunsets over the Smokey Mountains. Five bedrooms (three queens, four twins) and three full baths. Smart TV in upstairs den and downstairs living area for streaming, VCR/DVD. Heart pine floors throughout downstairs.

The kitchen is fully furnished and includes plenty of storage space. There are 2 ice makers, one in the refrigerator and one in the wet bar. The dining table seats 8-12 people. There is extra dining space at the kitchen island, at a game table, and on the front porch.

We are the last house on the road, giving you privacy and a spacious parking area. Enjoy beautiful views while sitting or dining on the large lakeside deck. There is a gas grill for your convenience. Three sets of glass doors open to the deck from living area affording a splendid view of the lake and Rumblin' Bald Mountain from the downstairs living and dining area.

The boathouse has another large deck, steps down to a wading area, a sliding board into the lake, and steps up to the roof for jumping. Kayaks are available for renters use. Our cove quiet and perfect for swimming or floating.

The fire pit is great for the fall/winter or cool summer nights. The mountain behind the fire pit is wooded and at the end of the road, giving the house a private feeling and plenty of space for young explorers.

Local activities available include swimming, skiing, boating, fishing, river canoeing and tubing, golf, tennis, hiking, biking, horseback riding, dining out... you name it! ***Unfortunately, because of Hurricane Helene no one is allowed to be on the water at Lake Lure until May of 2026.***

We loved the house!! Accommodated our family just great! Although we were there during Helene & had to cut our way out, Mrs Martha was the best host! We plan to go back another family vacation to her house once Lake Lure is cleaned & back open!!

Great Vacation on Lake Lure

We loved our stay at this Lake Lure property! It was such a charming home with everything we needed. We loved the privacy of being at the end of the cove. The view of the lake and mountains was wonderful. We had adequate parking and it was great to walk right into the house with no one xtra steps for my elderly mom. Loved our stay!

Cozy, relaxing, and fun spot for family stay

With this being our second stay at Martha's home, we definitely enjoy it! With plenty of space indoors, on the deck, on the dock, and in the water, our extended family had a great time and felt very much at home. With Verizon service nearly nonexistent and very spotty internet at the house, it was mostly an unplugged week for us which is wonderful for a family vacation.

Great location!

Great location! We had a group of nine including kids, teenagers and adults. The weather was relatively cool, excellent location by the lake, perfect for parking and a giant fire pit! Lake house was also close to a couple of great hiking trails. Would like to go back when it’s a little bit warmer so that we can enjoy the lake more!

Astonishing views!

Lake Lure is a must in anyone's travel, but the cabin was what gave us the most memories!. Spacious and quaint is the best way to describe. We had 3 families stay and none of us felt crowded or on top of each other. I recommend to anyone looking and would definitely stay again. Thank you to our host for all the memories we made and the extra hospitality we received.

Wonderful!

The house is roomy, clean, well maintained, beautifully furnished and comfortable. There is a great view of the lake and mountains, access to swimming right in the front yard and even a fire pit for s'mores! Our hosts couldn't have been more accomodating and I recommend this vacation home for any family members from infants to senoirs!

Great COVID respite

The location was great with ample cooking utensils and storage. Due to COVID-19, we did not leave the property and were well equipped to stay there. We didn’t need to interact with anyone and we’re pleased with the property and lake.

Lake Lure Family Vacation

Our family had a great time at this property. It’s a nice lake house with a great deck, comfortable living room and well-equipped kitchen. We enjoyed the kayaks, water slide, fire pit and ice maker! As mentioned in other reviews, the roads leading to the house are winding and narrow but we never had any trouble getting places. Overall a great vacation.

Fun Family Get Away!

Our family had a fun weekend at Lake Lure! The view was beautiful from the house and we all enjoyed kayaking and swimming from the private dock. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking supplies. We enjoyed visiting Chimney rock and the town. Not ideal you if you have trouble with steps. It was nice to be able to relax in such a beautiful place.

Another great time

This was our second year in a row at this house and again had a great time. The deck and dock are great and that is after all, why we’ve come to Lake Lure. Martha is always prompt and extremely helpful if ever a question arises. I’m sure we’ll be back!

Great stay

We had a wonderful trip the house had plenty of room for all 9 of us. The puzzles toys and board games were a great surprise for the kids. The owner was extremely easy to work with, very responsive to questions. House was well stocked. Wish they hadnt been working on the lake and we could have taken the canoe out or fished, but not the owners fault. We still enjoyed the view and peacefully atmosphere!!

Wonderful home right on the water

We loved this lake house and had a great vacation there. The house was immaculate when we arrived. Every morning we had coffee on the deck overlooking the lake with a beautiful mountain. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook our meals. Kayaks, canoe, and lake swimming kept us busy. Short drive to grocery store and hiking. Owner was a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend.

Nice house on the water

We really enjoyed our time. The house was clean, had all the pans and utensils needed for cooking, a nice fire pit, and a great view of the water from the back deck. We were there in the early spring, so not many people were staying in the other nearby houses, and it was quiet. We used the two kayaks to get out on the water. A well stocked grocery store is about 15 minutes away.

Fun-filled Restorative Week at the Lake

Our family of 3 generations had a fantastic time staying on Hummingbird Cove, and yes, we even saw many hummingbirds! The house is very comfortable, kitchen is stocked with all of the fishes and utensils we might have needed (and our family loves to cook!). We swam, fished, paddle boarded and kayaked off the dock in the quiet cove every day. We also rented a pontoon boat from the local boating company for a couple of days which was fun and convenient for exploring out further on the lake and swimming in other coves. Views are spectacular from the deck. We hope to return soon!!

Perfect spot

The house was perfect for us. We had a fabulous week. The cove is GORGEOUS. House was stocked with everything we needed. The only issue we had was the internet/tv. We like to watch shows at night and it was really hard to get access. I would recommend maybe upgrading your tv service or internet, but other than that, we loved it!

Extended family time in paradise

Cannot day enough good things about our stay. House was great for all from grands to babies as was the access to the lake. Home well equipped for cooking. Clean and comfortable and welcoming. Lots of shade from tree canopy. Plenty of comfy outdoor furniture. Kayaks and life preservers available. Grilled out most nights. Fire pit fun for all. Can’t wait for next summer to return! Owners lovely to communicate with.
