Love this house!
The house is great but it’s the boat deck/house and the lake that make it awesome! The owners provide lots of floats and kayaks and paddle boards so it’s a fun time.

Perfect getaway
We had the perfect long-weekend getaway at the Blue Moon Cottage! It was great being right on the water and having paddle boards, kayaks, floats and more! The space is so cozy and was perfect for our group of 4. If you’re looking for a relaxing, fun trip nestled in the mountains with gorgeous views, look no further. We will be back!

Lake Lure adventure
This house is very private located on a cove with a view of the lake. The firepit, upper deck and porch gave you several spots to view the water and just relax. The cottage is updated and is very comfortable. Just a few updates that the owners could make that would make this place an even better gem.

Blissful Vacation
We stayed for a week in June and it was amazing. The cottage is nicely decorated and well equipped with new appliances and furniture. We spent most of our time on the deck on the boat house enjoying the views, swimming, paddle boarding and relaxing! This home is truly a gem and the perfect getaway.

Great spot on Lake Lure
The house was just as described and looked like the pictures! Cozy yet enough space for what I needed. The location on the lake was great, in a little cove, but not right on top of other houses. Enjoyed the sun deck and swimming and paddling in the lake. Suggest bringing your own paddle board if you like that! Will definitely be back, maybe in the fall to enjoy a fire and the hot tub!

Perfect lake house
This was the perfect lake house for a girls weekend. The house is adorable and had everything we needed. Loved being able to just walk into the lake and go swimming. Plenty of rafts and kayaks there for use. Loved that chimney rock was a short drive away. Can’t wait to come back!
The house is absolutely perfect for a lake stay. We enjoyed the sun deck for afternoon lounging and the hammock was a favorite. At night we used the fire pit and the hot tub. It is close to town and the grocery store. We will definitely return!
This was our third trip to the lake and we really loved this cottage. Beautiful, modern updates and plenty of room for 4 adults. Quiet cove, room for our boat to pull up alongside the dock. Would book again!

Great Lake Lure house
The house was perfect for myself, my husband, 2 boys and 2 dogs. The boathouse and dock were our favorites. The kitchen and bathrooms were lovely and well provisioned. Great place for family and dogs!
Our family of 5 loved spending our Spring Break here. Even with the water down for the season, we could easily get the provided kayaks and paddle boards into the lake. The home is clean, nicely decorated, and well stocked. We also enjoyed soaking in the hot tub overlooking the water and soaking up the sun on the deck over the boathouse. We will be back, for sure!

Loved our stay!
This place had everything we needed for a nice relaxing long weekend. The decor, the outdoor space, the views. Just stunning! I cannot wait to return. The bedding was so comfortable I slept so well. Hot water and water pressure was on point. It’s the little things. So much attention to detail on this cottage! Loved the outdoor lighting!! We spent the day hiking at Chimney rock and that was much more beautiful than I had anticipated. The little town had some great restaurants and shops right on the river.

Blue Moon Cottage is a MUST stay!!!!
A perfect combination of cozy cottage and modern amenities!!! The cottage is well appointed and Deeanna is an incredible host. Not only did she answer any questions I had...but her level of excitement for us to visit truly made us feel like family!! We made the most of our visit...paddle boards, kayaks, a campfire with s'mores ...and a relaxing time in the hot tub. The ONLY disappointing part of our stay is when we had to say goodbye. We will return for sure!!! Thank you for a wonderful visit Blue Moon Cottage...you are quite a special place!💙

Peaceful lake cottage
This is exactly what we were needing. What a beautiful home overlooking the lake! We cannot wait to go back. We really liked that you can easily access the lake just by a couple of steps (perfect for children). Stocked kitchen was essential for all of our cooking needs.

2nd visit
We stayed here back in April and loved it so much we booked again for early October. The leaves had just begun to change and it was still a perfect 70 deg High and 55 low. We tried multiple restaurants and hiking trails nearby and took out the paddle boards/kayaks from the cottage. Can’t wait to come back!

Birthday at Bluemoon Cottage
This was the perfect lake front cottage for some time away. We loved the hiking and restaurants in Chimney Rock especially Highlands. And the Chimney Rock Brewery. Loved being on the river. Near the house the restaurant Appalachia is incredible. As good as the reviews said. The house itself is so updated and tasteful. I loved their style. The dock and walkways were top notch. I liked being able to shut the gates for the dog to play around on the deck. The beds were very comfy and the house is spotless. We would definitely stay again.

Great, Even in the Offseason!
Even with the lake down 12 feet (maybe more ?!?) we had a great time celebrating my husband’s birthday! It was fun to have some “beach” area for the kids to play. We had the whole lake to ourselves for canoeing and kayaking! The kitchen was well stocked, the hot tub was clean and toasty, the fireplace was great for morning coffee and the outside fire pit for evening drinks and smores! We hope to return in a warmer month to explore more!! <3
Great place to stay, very well equipped and comfortable
Had a nice trip with our family and dogs. The only real suggestion I would have is to build a block with lattice or something along the steps from the top of the boathouse down to the water, as our dogs tried walking onto the roof from the steps. They could fall off the other side easily and be injured. Otherwise perfect stay and very nice easy water access for dogs and kids.

I could live here! Gorgeous place!
WOW! What an incredible place! The location on the lake with stunning mountain views from the boat house was epic! Having canoes, kayaks, and paddle boards to enjoy was a huge plus. Enjoyed a campfire and cocktails right by the lake and the star gazing was out of this world. The cottage is surrounded by big beautiful trees and I was there at peak Fall leaf season and OMG is was like something out of a story book. The cottage's decor was perfection. With a stone fireplace and a hot tub on the deck, gosh you just couldn't even want anything more. I didn't want to leave! Truly one of my most fav places I have ever stayed.
