Welcome to your private cabin escape in the Blue Ridge Mountains! Chateau Laurel is the ultimate luxury log cabin with almost 5,000 square feet of space, that offers cabin seclusion with modern amenities, and with beautiful mountain views, sitting on 3 private acres. Located in the beautiful and historic Lake Lure area, you're just 15-20 minutes from the beach and waterpark, as well as shops and restaurants.
Expanding over 3 levels, there will be enough space for everyone to breathe and relax! You will immediately notice the detail in the timber frame structure, soaring vaulted ceilings, as well as the custom stone gas fireplace and the wall of windows to take in the view. The spacious great room has plenty of comfortable seating for your group and flows right into the fully equipped kitchen with breakfast nook. The dining room is intimate and a perfect spot to gather for meals, share stories or step outside, where you can soak in the views from the wrap-a-round deck, making memories to last a lifetime.
5 guest rooms have been decorated for our guests in mind with comfortable beds and attention to detail. There is also a separate office for those times you need to get a little work done. Don't forget to take a stroll around the property, the wonderful landscaping with small pond, nuts and fruit trees is simply exquisite!
