- "My fiance and I came to Lake Lure for a quiet weekend getaway. MaryAnn's cabin was the perfect spot for us! It was incredibly clean and check in was super easy. The host was great about responding quickly if we needed anything or had questions. We will definitely be back!" - "Easy to find, great location, well appointed. Deck is large with table and 4 chairs, and if it's raining part of the deck is covered. There's a grill we didn't use. Cabin was spotless and no musty smells. Gas fireplace was nice on cool evenings. Jacuzzi fit 2 nicely and felt great on muscles tired from exploring. Comfy furniture, well stocked kitchen. Coffee pot was welcome but there is a Keurig if you're so inclined. Bring coffee. (And refillable pods. 🌎♥️) Cabin location is great. We went easily to Lake Lure, Chimney Rock, Hendersonville (2 Guys Pizza! Do not miss this local treat!) Rutherfordton, and Bat Cave. Comfortable King bed downstairs with dual access to the large bathroom; so convenient. There's a washer/dryer we didn't use. Didn't use the loft, but it looked cool for kids. Tim was super responsive and so helpful. Tim, we sincerely appreciate what a great host and human you are and we will happily return to Mary Ann's Cabin. Two thumbs up! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ CandyBo Malinowski"
