Located just around the corner from the Lake Lure Beach and Marina and five minutes' drive from Chimney Rock State Park, the Hemlock Cottage is a mountain getaway gem that has provided a restful escape for travelers for 20 years. The cottage is conveniently located, yet private. It offers a partial mountain view from the front door (mostly obscured in summer when trees are leafed out) and is nestled into lush green native trees and plants that will make you feel like you're hidden away in the woods.
Come enjoy your own private patio with a sparkling-clean hot tub for two, shaded by beautiful hemlock trees and open to the beautiful mountain sky. Feel at home enjoying a comfortable king size bed, fireplace, Wi-Fi, Netflix and so much more. The Hemlock Cottage is carefully decorated with antiques, collectibles and regionally hand-crafted furniture. Feel free to sleep in, as your kitchen is stocked with breakfast goodies to start the day at your own pace (homemade bread & muffins, fresh fruit, hot cereal, butter, jam, creamers, sweeteners, coffee, tea & cocoa).
The property is nestled under a beautiful tree canopy and provides ample seating areas to appreciate the natural surroundings and--if you're lucky--wildlife including our adorable flying squirrels, whitetail deer, hummingbirds and chameleons. The picnic pavilion, shared by all four units, provides guests with a gas grill and outdoor dining area. We also have a sweet little propane firepit to enhance your outdoor relaxation (new in fall 2020).
The Hemlock Cottage is an ideal choice for honeymoons, anniversaries, birthdays, romantic escapes and relaxation retreats. Our guests return again and again for the peaceful mountain cottage ambiance and thoughtful amenities that provide a respite from whatever stresses may beset your everyday life. Whether you stay a weekend or a week, you will find yourselves charmed by the spirit of this magnificent place.
If you can tear yourselves away from the comforts of your cottage, you will discover a wide variety of pleasures and adventures in any season: from unique local restaurants to gift and antique shops, hiking trails and tours, boat and kayak rentals, seasonal produce and craft stands, winery tastings, zip-line tours, horseback riding and whitewater adventures.
We are located in the center of it all:
5 minutes to Chimney Rock Village and State Park
25 minutes to Tryon International Equestrian Center
30 minutes to historic Hendersonville
45 minutes to Asheville and the Biltmore Estate
1 hour to Greenville-Spartanburg
1.5 hours to Charlotte
Please note that we are an adults-only property and we do not make exceptions to this policy for children of any age.
**IMPORTANT**: In periods of lower demand and occupancy, we may offer single-night stays. The rates reflected in our calendar assume a minimum two-night stay; however, because the effort and costs involved in a one-night rental are virtually the same as a multi-night stay, we may charge an additional supplement for one-night bookings (between $15-30). If you request a single night's stay, we will send you a new quote with the fee added which you can choose to accept or decline.

==A special note regarding cancellations in pandemic times==
We have seen a distinct increase in last-minute cancellations since 2020. While we understand that life in general feels more uncertain these days and that many are struggling, we ask guests to recognize that the same applies to us as small business owners with a sole source of income.
If you would like to book with us but a last-minute cancellation (and loss of any monies paid to us) would be unsustainable for you, we recommend you purchase trip insurance with cancel-for-any-reason coverage.
We look forward to hosting you!
