Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2004
Hi from Sandy and Frank Godzik. We have been renting a second home in Florida and a Fairfield Mountain's condo to tourists for over 30 years. The many years of experience catering to guests and making them feel welcome, will be evident when you visit us on our farm. We have over five guest books filled with wonderful compliments about our rentals. Sandy is an RN and Frank was the administrator of an Assisted Living Facility, which we both owned and operated for over 24 years in Forida. We lived on site to assure quality interaction with our residents. Now we live on the farm in NC to assure your needs will be met promptly and you will have a relaxing and fun vacation with your family. We look forward to meeting you and don't forget to stop into our coffee shop for a 10% discount.
Why the Owner Chose Lake Lure
Lake Lure is the jewel of Western North Carolina in my opinion. The lake was voted one of the top 10 in the world by Natonal Geographic magazine. It is also the site of famous movie productions such as "Dirty Dancing" and "The Last of the Mohicans". The area has wonderful festivals all through the year due to the mild climate. We also vacationed here for many years and knew this is where we wanted to spend the best years of our lives.
The Unique Benefits of this Cabin
We are members of "Rumbling Bald Resort" and can take you into the resort nearby to use the heated pool, work out gym, jacuzzi, beach, tennis courts, and minature golf as our guests. There is so much more in that area. Our "Welcome Album" has all that info for you when you arrive, including details about the wonderful resturants, golf courses and horseback riding stables nearby.

We just spent the week at the Sweet Pea. We had a great time and I have already recommended it to several others. It is in easy driving distance to both Lake Lure (take the boat tour) and to Chimney Rock which is a great little place to explore. We also had a beautiful drive to Asheville.
Recommended for:Sightseeing, pet owners, age 55+, families with teenagers, girls getaway, families with young children.

There are over 5 guest books at the farm, all filled by happy guests with positive comments about their unique experiences on the farm. Too numerous to list, but it is a fun read while in a hammock by the creek.
