Wonderful Vacation Spot

My family and I had an amazing stay at The Cove Retreat. The location was ideal and it was incredible to be just a few steps away from a calm beach and the lake. The house was well kept, clean, and as described. We absolutely would stay at this location again and will have fond memories of this trip.

Weekend Getaway

The house was perfect for our family weekend getaway. There were plenty of toys and games to keep the kids and adults entertained. Everything was clean and spotless and we loved that we could see the lake but it was far enough away we didn’t have to worry about the children trying to go without letting adults know. Everyone loved the kayaks too. Great bonus!

Hi - I'm Mary!

My husband and I have always loved the Western North Carolina Mountains. In 2022, we found our Luna Lodge, and in 2023, The Cove Retreat. Since then, we've been having a blast sprucing up these homes to create unique, cozy spaces and have loved sharing them with fellow travelers. We absolutely adore this part of the country and hope you will too!
