About this house rental
Lake Lure continues to recover from Helene! We’re pleased to say that Mallard Cove is again welcoming guests. Thanks to all ongoing relief efforts, roads, power, water, and Wi-Fi, are restored. Although the Chimney Rock area, Lake Lure beaches/waterfronts are currently closed, there is much that our beautiful foothills area has to offer. Come to Mallard Cove as a peaceful retreat and “home base” for visiting nearby towns and attractions. Area restaurants, including Lake Lure and Asheville are reopening. There's golf at Rumbling Bald, area wineries, breweries, music, hiking trails, waterfalls, and more within an hour's drive of Lake Lure. Tryon Equestrian Center pavilion is hosting some of the Chimney Rock businesses that suffered from the storm. Saluda, Hendersonville, Forest City, Ashville, and larger cities like Greenville, SC are great day-trip destinations. By choosing to visit, you’re supporting the local businesses of Lake Lure, Chimney Rock and Western NC. We look forward to welcoming you!

This home did not disappoint. We wanted for nothing and that included both the kids and adults in our group. We especially found the stand up paddle boards, kayaks and boats a memorable addition and resulted in us not leaving the house, by car, once during our 4 night stay!! We left Lake Lure and this home feeling like we found a new special place to come back to again and again! We just hope that Mallard Cove is available the next time we come back!

I would 100% recommend this property to anyone considering a trip to Lake Lure. The check in process was easy and the property manager was so responsive and helped us to be prepared. The home itself is stunning and I couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful setting. I would come back in a heartbeat and honestly had the best stay!!

The house is beautiful. The boat was a perfect addition to this trip. We are boat people so we used it bunches. We was able to get a taxi's to Asheville to do a brewery trip along with eating at Lobster Trap oh it’s a must place to hit. chimney Rock is a lovely little hidden germ. Lots of cool little places. The brewery this is a great stop.t The only downside was the very short notice that the natural hot tub pool was broken. That was the only thing I can say. They made it right by doing a small refund. We definitely missed it after our hike we took. We will continue to come back to this area.

Our family thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful property over New Years. We were provided with everything we needed to cook, and feel comfortable. The fireplaces, indoor and outside, and the Hot Tub further enhanced our stay and enjoyment. The management team was very responsive and helpful when needed. If the opportunity presents itself, we will do it again!

We had a great time at Mallard cove. The home is not great for a family of 10, unless you sleep on sofa sleepers.

This house was amazing! Very clean and the location was great! It was very close to Ingles...which made it very convenient. I was there with a group of ladies and we had the best time. The house had everything we needed and more. The boat deck and large porch area seemed to be where we spent most of our time. The beautiful outside stone fireplace was very nice. The agents, Steve and Sue Gage, were super nice and very helpful. They were always available to answer any questions we had. I would most definitely rent again. Trust me when I say...you won't be disappointed in renting this one.

Mallard Cove exceeded or expectations. The home was in a private cove, conveniently located to Ingles and multiple lakeside dining options. Boathouse, dock and fire pit were a hit! —Kids enjoyed the paddle boards and kayaks. The house was stocked with everything we needed to feel like home. The pontoon boat was spacious and clean. We will definitely be back next year!

Our family stayed for a week at Mallard Cove. It was probably the nicest home that we have ever stayed in on Lake Lure. All of the beautiful pictures on the website could not begin to depict the beauty and detail in this great house. The house was well appropriated with all needs being met and many fine details to make the stay wonderful. Also, I have to give a shout out to Buffalo Junction Properties and Sue Gage. We had a few minor issues that were addressed immediately and efficiently by the property managers. They were helpful and easy to get a hold of. I would recommend the house at Mallard Cove and Buffalo Junction Properties with 7 stars if there was such a qualification.

Even though we went the weekend of Hurricane Ian, we generally escaped the wind and rain that came with that and had a good time.The house was clean, very well equipped and we enjoyed the use of the hot tub and pool table.It is close to the supermarket, several restaurants and all the Lake Lure attractions.Back to Hurricane Ian. The town lowered the lake 3 feet in anticipation of a lot of rain that didn't come. As a result, we couldn't use the pontoon boat which was a big disappointment. However, the agents gave us a rebate which they didn't have to do, which was good karma for them.We will be back.

The property was absolutely, amazingly beautiful! Everything we needed was right there!! The only time we left the house was to go get groceries, or to go on a little boat ride! By far one of the nicest places we have stayed!! The owners were super nice, and easy to communicate with! Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a private, quite getaway!! Definitely will come back to this location!

We chose this house for our yearly get away. It was perfect for our needs. Very clean and well appointed. Use of the pontoon boat, kayaks and paddle boards was one of the reasons that we chose this property. Lake Lure is beautiful and the house is located on a quiet cove with an amazing view. We would definitely stay here again.

Our family had a wonderful week in this lovely house. Lots of places to visit with the numerous young children with us; lots of room for the multi-generational group. Lots of fun in the lake. There is often a beautiful sunset from the middle of Lake Lure, or we lucked out on sunsets! Would recommend this home.

This property had EVERYTHING we could have possibly wanted. We had a hard time leaving to even go exploring the beautiful surroundings. The kitchen is so well stocked with anything dish, cookware, and appliance you could think of! The house was so spacious that you could be by yourself or with the group and feel so comfortable. The teenagers want to go back next year!!! (So do the adults) the property managers were so friendly and helpful. We got email updates leading up to our stay that evening included recommendations of things to do in the area!

Great place for small family gathering in Lake Lure
Mallard Cove was absolutely wonderful! My two children and their spouses, my husband and I couldn’t have found a better place. The house has plenty of spaces fir everyone to gather or sit back and relax. We really enjoyed the hot tub, pontoon boat and sitting in the deck.
