Historic Lake Front Cottage-SUP Boards, Kayaks, FirePit, Large Boathouse Deck

Timber Cove Cottage is one of Lake Lure’s most historic and scenic lakefront homes, with features dating back to the 1930’s. You will be captivated by the nearly 2 acres of beautifully landscaped stone terraces, walkways, and fire pit area. 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, and sanitized linen service. 3 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms. Sleeps up to 8.
NOTE: . The plan for the next Lake Drawdown is 1/1/24 - 3/31/24.
The Lake will be drawn down by 12 feet. The purpose of the Lake drawdown is to allow for the completion of priority infrastructure projects including the sewer system replacement project including the Gravity Lift System (GLS) in the North end of Sunset Cove, dredging, seawall and boathouse construction/maintenance, dam and hydroelectric plant maintenance, and sewer cleaning and maintenance.
While the Lake will begin rising on March 31st, 2024, the rate of refilling the Lake is based on the weather and rainfall received.

Great New Year's Eve Stay
Check in process was easy and the property looked even nicer than the photos! The fire pit was a big hit. Everything we needed was there. Beds were comfortable and there was plenty of comfy seating for 7 in front of the cozy fire as well as the big farm table for dining. We enjoyed stargazing from the deck even though it was a bit chilly. We enjoyed exploring Chimney Rock, Triple Falls, and Hendersonville. Kathleen was very helpful. One word of caution, we encountered the neighbor's agressive dogs when taking the trash to the end of the drive, so if you have small kids, don't let them wander down the drive by themselves. It could have been a one time thing but just an FYI. I would definitely stay here again!

Lovely spot on the Lake
The house is great and has everything you need. Kayaks and inner tubes for spending time on the lake made for a fun stay. Property owners were very kind and easy to get in touch with.

Heaven on the Lake
Had a wonderful week here! House was amazing, the view incredible and the water was so cool and refreshing! House was very clean with all the amenities you could need. Stairs and steps throughout the property could definitely be a challenge for some people. A railing down at the steps leading into the water is definitely needed for safety. Overall, this was a fantastic property! Highly recommend!

Great long weekend!
We stayed for a long weekend. We wanted to cook and eat all our meals there. The grill worked great, there was a full sized refrigerator and electric range with 4 burners and two ovens. The kitchen was fully equipped with utensils, pots and pans, dishes, silverware and serving dishes. Plenty of towels, wash cloths and blankets. There was a nice fire pit that we used and lots of small gathering places to relax. We used the kayaks and some of the life jackets and it was nice to have our own dock. I would definitely recommend this place!

Lake Lure Getaway
Excellent headquartered location for a diverse mountain small town vibe, filled with waterfalls, varied hikes, and tours of indie breweries. Add in multiple live music venues, and you have arguably one of the most desirable places to move to.

Layout
Beautiful property - not ideal for more than two couples because of the unconventional layout on the first floor. It would be great for two couples.
