Lodge at Bearmoon is ideal for a family vacation or romantic getaway (sorry, no four-legged guests). A large log cabin it offers 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths, 1 half bath, and sleeps up to 10 comfortably. With 3 levels of living space, there are great gathering spaces and adequate privacy. This home is 5.4 miles from the Beach at Lake Lure, 6.7 miles to Chimney Rock State Park, and 17 miles to the Tryon International Equestrian Center (TIEC).  NOTE: This is a lake view home, but does not have direct lake access.

If you must get a little work in, there are desks and internet access. The loft and oversized leather chair offer a nice place to curl up with a good book. The numerous televisions will insure everyone is able to watch his or her favorite program. 

Beautiful Details and Optimal Comfort

The exterior of the home features a combination of wood and stone that fit the mountain location perfectly. It is situated so there are breathtaking seasonal winter views of Lake Lure and the Blue Ridge Mountains from many of the rooms. On the interior, the use of drywall on some of the walls draws your attention to the warm color of the wood and to the home's many architectural details. Additionally, the wood and painted walls combination makes the home more like a hybrid between a warm log cabin and cozy lake cottage, and the mix works together wonderfully.

When you enter through the kitchen, the lightness of the white cabinetry, light-color backsplash tiles with aluminum accents, dark center island, contemporary stainless steel appliances, and gorgeous granite countertops offer the perfect complement to the wood floors and ceiling beams. Just beyond the kitchen is the dining room, with a table that seats 6, that leads to the living area.  HAS BOTH A KEURIG AND DRIP COFFEE MAKER.

A wall of windows in the dining and living areas floods the open space with light and serves as an ever-changing gallery of the artwork of Nature. Focal points of the living area are the windows and the beautiful stone fireplace.

Each of the three levels has sleeping quarters, TV, and a full bathroom. On the main level is a bedroom with a king bed and adjoining full bath with double vanity, shower, and jetted tub. You can just step through the French doors to enjoy the deck. There is also a half bath and laundry room on this level. On the upper level is a bedroom with 2 queen beds, TV, and full bath. This level has the desk area. The lower level offers a bedroom with a king bed, TV, adjoining bathroom, and French doors that offer easy access to the outdoors. In addition to the second gas fireplace and gathering space, there is also a queen bed on this level.

Seasonal Splendor

No matter the season, this refined mountain home provides a perfect mountain escape. Stay in the spring when the foliage is beginning to bloom and daytime temperatures average in the 60s. Enjoy your morning coffee on one of the decks or relax away the afternoon in one of the outdoor rocking chairs. Visit in the summer when the weather is perfect—warm but not humid. Unwind with the soothing breezes and views from the porch overlook. With the upper deck outdoor seating and gas grill, enjoy cooking and dining in the fresh mountain air.

Come later in the year when a cozy log cabin feels just right; the autumn colors in this area are breathtaking and the winter weather opens an entirely new view with the leaves absent from the trees. Stay warm by the fireplace or relax in the jetted tub in the king bed suite bath.

The scenic views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and waters of Lake Lure can be viewed from nearly every room in the house. You will even enjoy the sunlight through the large windows throughout the day; the soft orange of sunrise; the warmth and brightness of the midday sun; and the majesty of sunset with its pink and blue hues. Seeing all of this reflected on the lake adds to the ambiance.

This is a beautiful home in a beautiful mountain setting with lake views. We are confident you will love the home and the area. We look forward to you and your family (sorry, no four-legged family members) being our guests.

These efforts by the Town of Lake Lure may affect access to the lake and restrict any lake usage. The lake will likely be back up to normal levels by mid to late April. No personal watercraft will be allowed on the lake during this time. 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. For more information about the annual lake drawdown, please contact the Town of Lake Lure.
