About this cottage rental

Timber Cove Cottage is one of Lake Lure’s most historic and scenic lakefront homes, with features dating back to the 1930’s. The wonderful outdoor spaces continue with an inviting roof-top deck, overlooking Timber Cove, Lake Lure and surrounding mountains. The home has been meticulously restored and updated while maintaining the original “lake cottage” layout and feel. Professionally managed, cleaned, linens provided. 3 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms. Sleeps up to 8.
Come experience lake life. The Town of Lake Lure is expecting the lake to be at full pond May of 2026.
MAIN LEVEL: Timber Cove Cottage features an open Main Level floor plan with Great Room and fully equipped, updated kitchen with a double oven, and both drip and Keurig coffee makers. Walk-out from the Main Level directly onto a spacious Rooftop Deck and Stone Patios. A bright, airy Sunroom adjacent to the Great Room has dining table with bench seating + two chairs and a Queen sleeper-sofa. Great Room has gas fireplace (Oct 1-April 1), flat screen Smart TV , and Sonos speaker, and another queen sleeper-sofa. Great Room, Deck and Sunroom have views overlooking Lake Lure. Rooftop Deck has Gas grill (we supply propane), dining table for 6, covered outdoor seating area and 2 lounge chairs. Main Level Bedroom has 1 King bed and private balcony. NOTE: Main Level Bathroom is accessed by walking through the Bedroom. One flight of stone stairs takes you down from Parking area to Main Entrance. Parking for 3+ vehicles. If negotiating stairs are an issue for anyone in your group, you may want to consider a different property.
LOWER LEVEL has two Bedrooms and a full Bath. It’s an unconventional layout, which is part of the charm of a vintage lakefront cottage: Walk down the stairs directly into a Bedroom with 1 King Bed and flat screen Smart TV. Walk through the King Bedroom into the second Bedroom with a Queen Bed. The Lower Level Bathroom is accessed by walking through both Bedrooms. Lower Level walks out to the large Dock area, Pond and path to the Fire pit area.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had wonderful visit to this lovely Lake Lure cottage. Kathleen and Steven were easy to communicate with, answering all our questions. The cottage was perfect for 2 couples. We came to this area knowing there would be no lake activities due to Hurricane Helen. But we wanted to support the businesses that are fighting their way back. We ate at several delicious restaurants. Visited Chimney Rock State Park as well as the shops that are reopened. It was uplifting to see the resilience of these folks and the hard work everyone is doing. Cottage is comfortable and great location.

Great classic lake house tucked away in a cove with views of the main lake. Will be great again when the work in the lake is finished and water levels restored. Great house and great location.

Everything was the way it’s described. We had an amazing stay for girls weekend. Enjoyed walking across the street to the local garden bar. Which was also amazing. Very clean and comfy beds,‘plenty of space for the seven of us girls. Would definitely come back.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The rental was quite cute looking with covered deck area that was nice during rain. There wer steps and gates everywhere so could be tricky for anyone not steady on feet. House was definitely not deep cleaned as advertised mold on doorway, popcorn in sofa, dust under beds and furniture. Kitchen well equipped albeit with tiny dishwasher We were in cove where leaves and debris collected around waterfall. If neighboring houses had been occupied our house would have lacked any privacy. We enjoyed the dock anyway and the tube and kayaks and paddlboard
