Located on the north shore of picturesque Lake Lure, you will have full guest access to Rumbling Bald, a 3,000+ acre property that is home to a private white sand beach, children’s water park, distinct dining experiences and numerous hiking and biking trails. There are two 18-hole championship golf courses available to book as guests of this home: Bald Mountain and Apple Valley. Take advantage of all the resort property offers: golfing, fishing, hiking, swimming. It also makes a beautiful wedding venue with full staff and catering. Large Ingles grocery store with Starbucks and a pharmacy is 8 miles away. This house requires a 5 night minimum during peak season Memorial Day through Labor Day. Would consider shorter nights and not 24 hour buffer, please message request.
Hurricane Helene: Thankfully, this home and surrounding resort area were mostly spared by the hurricane and we are so grateful but it has been a slow revival and we are very eager for visitors to return. Unfortunately, the main lake will be closed for recreational boating, swimming, and fishing use at least through summer 2025 and likely beyond due to Army Corp of Engineers efforts to remove vast debris and sediment deposited during flooding. The beach at Rumbling Bald has been used to triage the debris before being sent out in dump trucks to the green space near south shore of the lake so are not certain of beach status for summer. There was utter devastation on Sept 27, 2024 with flooding in downtown Lake Lure & Chimney Rock resulting in bridges and roads washing out. Chimney Rock State Park is trying to open by June, 2025. The people of this area depend on and are desperate for tourism to return to this beautiful mountain town so please book and help support our recovery. There are small lakes in the resort available for fishing. Reach out to property manager for info and updates.
