Overview ↑↓

We want to be upfront about the status of Lake Lure. Hurricane Helene left an unprecedented amount of debris, and while cleanup efforts are underway with the US Army Corps of Engineers, the lake will likely remain closed for the 2025 summer season.But while the water may be off-limits, the magic of Lake Lure is still here—breathtaking views, charming restaurants, local vineyards, scenic trails, Rumbling Bald golf courses, and the Tryon Equestrian Center just 25 minutes away. Your time in Western North Carolina will still be unforgettable, filled with new memories while supporting this resilient community. We are truly grateful for your visit and look forward to welcoming you!

Welcome to Branching Out! This charming cabin in the breathtaking beauty of Lake Lure showcases exceptional craftsmanship and offers magnificent mountain views that will leave you in awe. Perfectly located to explore Lake Lure, Chimney Rock, Bat Cave and Asheville is just under an hour away!

Step inside and feel the warmth of the cozy living space, enhanced by a charming gas fireplace that sets the perfect ambiance for relaxation and gathering with loved ones. The open floor plan seamlessly connects the living, dining, and kitchen areas, creating a welcoming atmosphere for entertaining. As you venture outside, you'll be captivated by the panoramic mountain vistas surrounding the property. Head up to the observation deck, where there is a beautiful lake view, and take a deep breath of fresh mountain air or unwind on the screened-in deck.

Relaxing stay in the mountains

Review Date: May 24, 2025

Vacation Date: June 29, 2024

"We stayed here for a long weekend -- location was great - close to public beach where you can rent kayaks and SUPs. Very close to restaurants if you don't feel like cooking, but the kitchen of this property was well stocked including coffee k-pods, creamer, and sugar. Only a 45 minute drive to the Biltmore, where we spent one of our days, and only a couple miles to Chimney Rock Park with views like no other. Only thing I wished this property had was direct access to the lake itself.

"We took our college and high school kids and their friends up for a few days. The house was well-equipped and had plenty of space for everyone. I think we spent the most of our trip on the screened porch honestly. We did expect to be a little closer to the lake or have some kind of access since the house was advertised as "on the lake" but it was still a perfect stay. The bonus room upstairs was a huge hit for the boys. Tons of games and places to hang out! The community lake access is quite limited - $10/ person to get in and only open from 10am-6pm.

"Our family had a wonderful time at branching out cabin! The kitchen was stocked with everything we could have needed, the bedrooms are spacious and spread out where each couple had some privacy, we took a short walk down to the water, and had a wonderful meal in the downtown of lake lure! Also had lots of fun at the park close by! Highly recommend branching out! We will be back!

"We enjoyed a wonderful weekend getaway with friends at Branching Out. The home was beautifully appointed, comfortable and had all the necessities to make it the perfect home away from home. While the other family in our group enjoyed the primary suite, our family of five comfortably utilized the upstairs rooms with our two oldest in the bedroom with the twin beds and our youngest in the adjacent room, which was nice and dark for her to sleep comfortably. The kids had the best time dancing on the “stage,” singing karaoke and loved climbing up to explore the nook at the top of the ladder. There was also a lovely king suite downstairs with a private bathroom, so everyone was able to have their own space. The screened porch was a fabulous spot to relax and have a nice cup of coffee in the comfortable Adirondack chairs. The grill on the side porch appeared to be brand new and made grilling meals a breeze along with the range in the kitchen. No details were left out of the kitchen for those who enjoy cooking! Ingles was close by and offered everything we needed. We enjoyed a day trip to Chimney Rock, which had gem mining and other fun activities for the kids. Needless to say, we can’t wait to book our next trip at Branching Out!

Raising the bar!

Review Date: June 3, 2023

Vacation Date: May 11, 2023

"Our stay at Branching Out has now raised the bar as the baseline mountain experience we’d like to repeat. There is a warm ambiance about this home that greeted us at the front door - and only got better inside! For us it was just the right blend of rustic-contemporary decor. So many little things in this home make a big difference! The layout is well-designed and highly functional - especially for larger families or groups because of the two king bed suites with private baths and the upstairs sleeping areas. Also, the game room upstairs is a natural gathering spot for kids of all ages. The huge windows in the great room, the screened porch, and observation deck are just right for enjoying the great outdoors without ever leaving the house! And we loved the convenience of the location - so close to so many restaurants, Lake Lure beach, Chimney Rock - all within a 5 minute drive. All said, Branching Out is just an über fun place to be. Well-done on all fronts for both our ‘wish and needs’ list - we can’t wait to return!
