Pet Friendly, Bear Paw by Carolina Properties

LenaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Beautiful home! Photos and descriptions were accurate. Host was responsive & place was pristine. Very peaceful with every amenity you need. Will definitely come again! Notes- Home was a little difficult to find late at night, yoi have to go off a 2nd side road to get to the home & cell service is almost non-existent which for many may be a good thing but we hadn’t downloaded & screenshot info before we arrived so we were a bit frazzled that we wouldn’t be able to get in for a little while. That’s on us though as management sent a text with instructions. There were a good bit of instructions so make sure to read over. The host sent out with ample time. Everything was labeled nicely at the house but there was nothing in the house with the WiFi information so make sure to read over the instructions & screenshot the WiFi info from the your phone as well. Had a great time & a wonderful stay! Highly recommend!

12pm chk-in,Modern mountain log house in Lake Lure

CarolynRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We just spent 5 days at Brian’s beautiful mountain home. We let him know we would be late and when we arrived , every light in the place was on. It was just beautiful. So thoughtful of him. Everything is pristine. There were enough paper product and cooking supplies to last us our stay. Brian and Dawn have thought of everything to make your stay enjoyable. Wait until you see his manicured trails, which include an island with a gas fire pit. The home is new and they have gone over and above with all the appliances and decorative touches. I can’t say enough about our stay. .Thank you Brian and Dawn

Three Pines Cabin

KristinRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We had an absolutely amazing stay at this cabin! The pictures don’t do it justice....this place is even more beautiful in person. The views were breathtaking, and honestly, we were just as happy spending our time at the cabin as we were going out to explore. It truly felt like something out of a painting. The cabin itself was small but just right for me, my fiancé, and our dog. It was cozy, comfortable, and everything we needed. Jacqueline was an incredible host. Unlike other places I’ve stayed, she didn’t rush us or bombard us with checkout reminders. She reached out on the morning of checkout with clear instructions, which made the process feel calm and stress-free. Overall, our experience was fantastic, and I already miss it. I can't wait to come back for another peaceful retreat!

Nordic ChAlet: Hot tub | Mtn & Lake View | Firepit

CasonRating, 5 stars2 days ago
This was the perfect getaway for my girlfriend and I. We had envisioned a cabin that was private with a view. The first night we arrived it was raining and the ambience was perfect. We made a charcuterie, and watched our favorite show on the projector TV. We were table to make it out to the local restaurants as well- always excited to come back to the hot tub with a view. The Nordic ChAlet was clean, and more than comfortable! The overall decor made us feel at home. Gabriella and Kaleb were available to us with any questions we had. We will definitely always remember our time there.

I had an incredible weekend here. The house feels warm and thoughtfully designed, and the setting by the river is absolutely magical. It’s so peaceful and private—I felt completely recharged. The host was fantastic and made everything easy. I’d recommend this place in a heartbeat.

Your guide to Chimney Rock

Welcome to Chimney Rock

A little North Carolina mountain town with an Old West vibe and population of just over 100 people, Chimney Rock Village perches by a rushing river in a scenic gorge with views of two towering mountains. Most of the architecture dates from the 1920s and ’30s, and many of the locally owned mom-and-pop businesses have operated here for just as many decades.

The village is surrounded by thousands of acres of verdant forestland, including namesake Chimney Rock State Park and its massive, scalable granite monolith. It’s also sandwiched between the popular and scenic Lake Lure and the Bat Cave, where there’s a giant but inaccessible cave full of bats. Outdoor adventurers often return to the village in the evening to saunter through town sipping craft beer or homemade soda pop, scouting out ice cream stands, and relaxing by the boulder-studded Broad River. For family fun, there’s also a mini-golf course, a small amusement park with carousel rides, and a gem mining operation.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Chimney Rock

On a plateau above Chimney Rock Village is an outdoor amphitheater called the Gathering Place, and during the spring, summer, and fall you can find people there appreciating live music and partaking of various festivals and events — mostly notably the Spring-Go Festival and an outdoor concert series put on by the Symphony of Rutherford County. It’s a treat to catch the flowers blooming in springtime, and in summer the temperatures rise along with the number of visitors. Early November is the most stunning time to stay in a Chimney Rock cabin and behold in the region, as the dramatic color changes in the leaves render the view from atop Chimney Rock absolutely breathtaking. Although temperatures drop in fall and winter, holiday lights are festive in these parts, and fun events include a Tour de Pumpkin cycling event and a Polar Plunge into Lake Lure on New Year’s Day.


Top things to do in Chimney Rock

Chimney Rock Gemstone Mine

With two locations on the bank of the Broad River, this do-it-yourself mining experience allows visitors to try their hand at sifting out gold nuggets, rubies, emeralds, sapphires, garnets, alongside other naturally occurring gemstones. All equipment is provided, and every aspiring miner is guaranteed a find of some sort.

Rocky Broad Riverwalk

Meandering natural walkways give way to stone and wooden bridges by the scenic Broad River, with the footpath occasionally breaking off toward a brewpub, restaurant, or shop. Summertime swimming is common here, as are boulder scampering and picnic lunches.

Chimney Rock State Park

The region’s iconic monolith can be reached with a challenging hike up 500 steps or a ride in a 26-story elevator. Either way, the granite slab’s top rewards visitors with majestic views of Hickory Nut Gorge and its forestland for some 75 miles in any direction. You can also hike to the base of the 404-foot Hickory Nut Falls, which rewards with views of the falls, wildflowers, and a range of birds. Rumbling Bald Trail is another good hike within the state park, and it starts just two miles from the village.
