Charming, cozy cabin with open floor plan in Riverbend sleeps 5-6 comfortably. Two private lakes, private beach and river access. Front and rear decks for enjoying the beautiful scenery, gathering with family and friends, or savoring a quiet moment on the front porch swing! Outdoor propane firepit and indoor fireplace for cool evenings. Take advantage of all that Lake Lure and nearby Rutherford County have to offer -- restaurants, fishing, swimming, hiking, ziplining and SO MUCH MORE!! PLEASE NOTE: As of Feb 2025, Lake Lure itself is closed to boating and swimming while it undergoes dredging post Hurricane Helene. Most Lake Lure restaurants and shops are open for business, however, and will appreciate your support!

The cabin was perfect. Comfy, clean and perfect for us and the dogs. Yard is fenced. Enjoy time at fire pit while they explored the yard. Fully stocked with linens, toiletries. Kitchen had all you needed, just bring food. Spices and all waiting for you. Great front and back porch views. Can’t wait to come back again. Highly recommend JR’s Cabin.

We stayed at JR Cabin for one week with our 2 small dogs. I chose this property primarily as it was dog friendly and fenced. We were impressed with how secure the fence was with great care taken that there were no areas that a dog could get through which provided great peace of mind.
The accommodations were clean, comfortable and so well stocked with any kitchen gadget you’d need, a keurig with coffee pods available…much appreciated!, plentiful bath towels and even first aid kits, washer and dryer with detergent. We would definitely choose this property should we ever come back to the area!

We stayed here for a long weekend with our young girls and dog. The neighborhood is quiet and beautiful. The short drive to the lake access in the neighborhood was our favorite aspect. The drive to Lake Lure Beach and Chimney Rock Village is short. The porch with bench swing was such a relaxing place to enjoy the quiet and nature. I wish we had stayed longer! Will definitely be back.

House was clean and more beautiful in person than on the listing. All supplies we needed such as paper towels, toilet paper, towels, and soap were fully stocked. Our puppies enjoyed running around in the fenced in yard. Overall it was a great trip

What a great place to stay. I've stayed in many vrbo's previously and this one was well thought out. They thought of everything you could possibly need. Everything was top notch. The location was great and I guarantee the roads were very good getting to the property. Thank you for a great time and we look forward to staying in your property again in the future.

Everything was just perfect!! A beautiful, cozy cabin with great rooms, quilts, fireplace, fire pit and great for a Gobble table and time and space for family games!! We would certainly stay here again!! Near to Lake Lure and Chimney Rock!! Thank Noreen and JR for your hospitality!!
As a VRBO host myself, your place definitely deserves five stars in all areas! As for a few who whined in their comments about the gravel road to the cabin, what did you expect!!! You’re in the high foothills! We loved the ride up and down from the cabin! Thank you!

Cozy cabin tucked back in the hills. We had no issues with the property. Accommodations were nice and super clean; even better than the pictures present. Property manager was great.

You definitely feel like you are in the woods with the authentic log style, exterior and beautiful trees that surround the property. I saw a bear on the way into Lake lure the day I arrived. I also saw several beaver on the sides of the road, and crossing. Definitely a magical place I shall return.

We absolutely loved JR’s cabin. From the solitude of the surroundings to the amenities and comfort it was everything we hoped it would be. The owners were always readily available if needed. The cabin was spotlessly clean and supplied with just about everything. Our two small dogs loved the fenced and secure yard. Close to Lake Lure, Chimney Rock plus a grocery store nearby made it even more convenient. We will return for sure.

The property itself is overall nice, but the gravel roads to get there were a bit of a pain. We did run into an internet availability problem, but it was due to the owner's plan not providing a high enough data limit for the amount of data that we used over our 2 week stay, which did involve M-F work that required internet usage.

This property was clean and met our needs. The full kitchen was great with the limited options for later in the evening. If you are someone that gets motion sick, please be advised all the roads in this area can be challenging.

A fabulous escape awaits you and your dog at JR’s Cabin! My partner and I took a long weekend here with our fuzzy little pup and it was amazing. The cabin is warm and welcoming, with well-appointed rooms and delightful touches. We loved the dog bowls already set out, the excellent cookware and the mindfulness coloring books and pencils! Having a secure fenced yard for our dog was priceless, and we loved relaxing on the porch almost as much as he did! The proximity to water recreation and great hiking was outstanding. At the end of the day, we could unwind with a beautiful stroll down the quiet, rustic road or veg out with excellent cable options or wi-fi time on our own devices. The owners are kind folks who are generous with their itinerary suggestions and assistance. Look no more— this is the one!

Riverbend is a private community with access to the Broad River and 2 lakes for swimming. We stayed mainly at the Old Swimming Hole right after the entrance because we had 2 dogs with us. JRs cabin was perfect for my family of 4 (plus pups). The yard is fenced. I was really impressed with the extras throughout the cabin. All of the cookware is higher quality and there was bug spray/sunscreen/first aid kit available if needed. Less than 20 min to Lake Lure and really close to the Ingles for groceries. Definitely recommend!

We loved JR’s cabin located in a mountain oasis in the Lake Lure area. Very convenient location to area attractions. Gated community with a small lake and river…gravel road to the cabin was fine with our SUV. The cabin was comfortable and had everything needed for our stay. So nice having coffee on the porch in such peaceful surroundings! The owner was very responsive and accommodating.

This was our second stay at this cabin, and will it be our last! This cabin is absolutely perfect for us! I love i5nis perfect for us, and exactly as described. Noreen is an amazing host, you could not find better!
We have small dogs and delighted to be able to bring them with us. The yard are is extremely se use for dogs, including small dogs.
Noreen is an amazing host, and provides all the comforts of home at this cabin. I have rented several cabins in the past, and have never had a better host than Noreen! As mentioned earlier, this was not our first stay. There is a definite comfort in coming back and finding the cabin just as we left it. We are already looking forward to our next stay. We love the area, and happy to have “our” place to stay while there!

The cabin was perfect. It was clean and better stocked than any place I have stayed. I appreciated all the extra little things like a first aid kit and the mustard and mayonnaise. The rooms were spacious and the beds were very comfortable. I did not bring my dog, but I will definitely return with my fur baby. The yard was securely fenced. Dispite being a dog friendly cabin, there is no dog smell. My only suggestion is to include in the description that there are steep, dirt roads to get up to the cabin.

Cabin was as listed. The fenced yard was a plus as we were able to let the dog out to play on her own. The overall location was great, with the gated community, nature walks, river, and lake. The only problem that we found was the washer had mold in it and our allergies flared up really bad. We cleaned it the best we could and informed the owner of what we found.

JR'S Cabin is a wonderful getaway for a couple or small group. Located in River Bend, it is charming, comfortable, well appointed, and the owners have made it dog friendly with a secure fence around the property. It is minutes from Lake Lure and a short drive to Rutherfordton, NC.
We have stayed at other properties in the area, but JR's Cabin is our favorite and definitely one we will return to.

This property was better than described. The owner keeps it spotless. If they don’t have something in there available you don’t need it. Cozy, relaxing, quiet and just wonderful! We had a fire inside every night which kept the cabin toasty without needing to turn up the heat. Noreen the owner was immediately responsive when we had a question. We will be back!

Great location, just where we wanted to be. Communication with Host was excellent. We really appreciated the fenced in area available for our dog, the beds were comfy - and I have never stayed in a more well-provisioned rental - all the kitchen basics and beyond! Thank you so much for a very relaxing few days.

Wonderful cabin with nice amenities and close to the golf a friend and I wanted to do. Comfortable in the evenings when we got back. The only negative was there was no ESPN on the TV during a big college football day. Otherwise everything was great.
