Casa Carroll - Lakefront Cottage, Incredible Views

No Pets, No Exceptions

LAKE LURE LAKEFRONT ~ WI-FI ~ MOUNTAIN VIEWS ~ ROMANTIC ~ KING SIZE BED ~ BOAT DOCK

AREA WIDE NOTICE: Lake Lure will undergo a drawdown from January 1st, 2024, through the first quarter of 2024(March 31st). The lake will begin to be lowered by approximately 1 foot per day until 12 feet have been reached. Infrastructure maintenance, dredging, and dam projects will be expedited during this time frame. These efforts by the Town of Lake Lure may affect access to the lake and restrict any lake usage. For more information, click here. The lake will likely be back up to normal levels by mid to late April. While we understand this is an inconvenience, this does allow you to enjoy the full beauty of Lake Lure in the fall and holiday season. This will not affect the smaller lakes in the area, only Lake Lure itself.

Casa Carroll is a cozy single-level Lake Lure lakefront cottage with a well-appointed interior. It is ideal for a romantic or quiet, peaceful getaway. There is Wi-Fi Internet and 2 Smart TVs. This home is 6.8 miles to the Beach at Lake Lure, 8.1 miles to Chimney Rock State Park, and 18.5 miles to the Tryon International Equestrian Center (TIEC).

Upon entering, there is a wonderful sunroom. Then you walk through the door to a nice open living space, a comfortable sofa that is also a sleeper, a small tidy kitchen with an island, and large glass doors allowing the incredible lake and mountain views to jump right into the cottage.

The king-size bed in the bedroom makes for a relaxing retreat after a day at the lake or fun area activities, and there is a full bathroom accessible from the bedroom and the living area. If you want to bring additional guests, the sofa converts to a queen-size bed.

The dock at the lakeside is a great place to sit and dangle your feet in the water or bring your boat for use on the lake (see the boating regulations for additional information).

Lake Lure Beauty Year-Round
This home is perfect for every season. The bushes and trees on the shady wooded lot and down the long drive will begin filling with leaves in spring. Summer weather in the area is great most of the time. Autumn brings plenty of visitors to the area for the extraordinary colors. They are even more beautiful when reflected on the lake. With the absence of leaves on the trees in winter, you will see entirely new landscapes.

Plus, the Lake Lure/Chimney Rock area and surrounding communities have so much to offer, including restaurants, shopping, and fun outdoor adventures you and your loved ones will never forget. See the Amenities and Notes for just a sampling of what is available.

Pontoon Boat Rental Available
Interested in renting a pontoon boat to immerse yourselves in the lakefront living lifestyle fully? Rent a pontoon boat and take the whole crew, up to 8 people! We are happy to offer you the best pontoon rental prices around!

Be Our Guest
If you visit once, we are confident you'll return again and again for the lake, rest, beauty, fun, comfort, and hospitality. We hope to see you soon and look forward to you being our guest!

Cute place
This is a very quiet, cute place. Although there are several other houses nearby, we did not see anyone. We were able to sit outside and just relax to the sounds of the water.

Beautiful location; could use a few upgrades/repairs
The cabin is in a lovely cove on the lake. Perfect for two people: I wouldn't suggest four. The kitchen is well stocked and well labeled! The bed is very comfortable, and the lakeside deck with table/chairs/umbrella was lovely. This being said, the place requires some attention. The couch either needs to be replaced, or the cushions replaced. They sunk into the frame when you sat down. I will address other issues with the property manager. I would also suggest that it is stated very clearly that the property doesn't come with water toys. Being from out of state, we weren't going to bring them! Thankfully, we found some inflatables at the Ingles grocery store, and enjoyed floating on the lake. We were thankfully able to leave them with our neighbors who had just arrived from Virginia, also unaware that water toys weren’t provided. Overall, our stay was incredibly relaxing.

Beautiful setting
We thoroughly enjoyed the stay; the setting is so beautiful, and the location is excellent. The sleeper couch, however, needs to be replaced. My daughter struggled to sleep on it, but the main bed was very comfy.

Cute place in a great cove
My best friend and I stayed here for a long weekend and had a great time! The living room furniture was a bit uncomfortable but the rest of the house was light and airy and well maintained! The deck out to the lake was perfect, there were even a couple of inflatables to use, and all of the neighbors were super friendly to chat with. Overall this was a fabulous place to stay!

Pros and Cons
The location at the lake front offered a great view, but difficult to maneuver the kayaks off the dock into the water. Couch was very uncomfortable because the cushions kept sinking into the couch so we mostly sat on the floor to watch tv. Had to rewatch dishes before using them because some were dirty. The shower leaked a lot and there was mold at the bottom edge of the shower. The blinds were cut too short so you could see across the lake while in the bathroom even with the blinds closed. Driveway is definitely meant for smaller vehicles.
