Great Getaway
This is a really nice place to getaway. It was just the 2 of us in this very spacious cabin. Coffee on the deck in the morning was amazing. Don't fret over the "offroad" experience to get to the cabin. It's well worth the trouble.

Sisters getaway
We enjoyed our stay. The accommodations were great. Great views of the water at the beach after a short climb down some steps to the water. Susie was very responsive and great to deal with. The Wi-Fi was a little slow at times but we really didn’t need to use it much for our stay. We had a wonderful time and loved the area! The deck and screened porch were a plus and was so nice being able to sit out and enjoy the fresh air. It is a gated community so a key code or scan card is needed to get in after 6. There are instructions in the check in section. I would stay again! I loved the homie feel of the cabin with plenty of room for us to have our own space.

Family trip
This property was awesome we loved to log cabin and all its charm. We loved enjoying the screened porches and the fire places. Was a great way to spend some quality time with our family. Didn’t even turn the TV on the whole weekend. Susie was a great host and we would totally come back again.

Annual family vacation
Absolutely loved the location of the property to mirror lake. It was our second year staying in Riverbend, and though the stairs are steep, super convenient to be right there! House was large enough for the whole family and multiple generations. Only thing is the cleaning could have been a bit better. There were cob webs that have been there for a long time and not touched but I know that’s the cleaning crews that come through. The master bedroom “door” was a bit interesting and then no door to the master bathroom so even when everyone was downstairs still felt that you weren’t closed off. The owner was super responsive, had to reach out a couple times during our stay and after and was always helpful! We absolutely love the area and have made it our destination for our family vacation every year!

About the host

Hosted by Suzanne Haupt

Host profile image
Hi, I’m Suzie Haupt. I have dreamt of living in a log cabin since 1956 when my family vacationed in Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains. Then, in 1959 when we rented our cabin on Lake Wallenpaupack, my new dream became to live in a log cabin on a lake!

Why they chose this property

I moved to the coast of North Carolina in 1991 and found that I very much missed the mountains and fresh water swimming. Thus began my search for the perfect lake to retire to. In 2005 I discovered Mirror Lake and fell in love with it. The exquisite views and mild water temperatures from May through October offer me more pleasure than I ever dreamed of.

Until I am able to retire and move permanently into “WHATAVIEW” I’d like to share my dream with you. You won’t be disappointed! Please call if you have any questions.

What makes this property unique

This part of western North Carolina is simply pristine; it is so beautiful that just sitting on the deck watching the changing light on the lake and the clouds seems in itself a past-time.

The majesty of the mountains and waterfalls in the area around Lake Lure are so picturesque that they appear to be torn from the pages of National Geographic.

From shopping and fine dining to golf and fishing, there is something for everyone here... oh, except for folks who like traffic noise, we don't have any of that.
