Lakehouse w Boats, Hiking Trails, Hot tub, Firepit, Fireplace, Resort Amenities

Newly renovated, our unique lakehouse offers access to two of the most beautiful lakes in the Blue Ridge Mountains. The lakehouse fronts on pristine Bald Mountain Lake, which is reserved for non-motorized water recreation. Our guests have access to our porta-bote with quiet E-propulsion electric motor to explore the lake. We also provide a pontoon paddleboat, Stand Up Paddleboards, kayaks and a canoe. The large, flat back yard offers a fire-pit (we provide firewood) and plenty of space to hang out and play. Beautiful Buffalo Creek flows through the property and into the lake. Hot tub now available! Buffalo Creek Park, which includes miles of hiking trails, is a pleasant five minute walk from our house. The property has free high-speed wi-fi (200 Mbps) and we provide a Level 2 EV charging station.

Our home includes five bedrooms and three bathrooms. We have a fireplace in the living room (we provide fire-logs during the cool months) and a screened porch on the second level with views of the lake. Our property includes a grill (we provide the propane) and two Smart televisions.

Bald Mountain lake is great for fishing and swimming. We have a dock on the lake which is deep enough to fish and swim off but not deep enough for diving.

Our property is within the Rumbling Bald Resort which has frontage on stunning Lake Lure. Guests can enjoy the amenities of the resort, which include:

• Free access to the lovely beach on the north shore of Lake Lure. There is a playground for kids. Kayaks and stand up paddle board are available to rent. Lake tours and pontoon rentals are available.
• Two world-class golf courses.
• Wellness center featuring dry sauna, indoor pool, hot tub, steam room and fitness center. All included in your stay!
• Two outdoor pools & Outdoor lazy river. Open daily from Memorial May to Labor Day and weekends for two weekends before and after.
• Tennis, volleyball, putt-putt and basketball courts.
• Outdoor games including corn hole, horseshoes and giant chess/checker boards-- Putt-putt course
• Legends on the Lake restaurant, which has a back deck with incredible views of Lake Lure. You can see the live-cam views from the restaurant at this link. https://www.rumblingbald.com/restaurant/legends-on-the-lake/

Some of the amenities, such golf, have associated resort fees. Others, such as beach access, indoor and outdoor pools, sauna and hiking, are free.

Our home is a 25 minute drive to Chimney Rock State Park, and one hour to Asheville. The nearest grocery store (Ingles) is about 20 minutes away. There is a small convenience store 2 miles from the house.

Great family retreat for all seasons. Please visit Rumbling Bald Resort website to see what activities will be available at the time of your stay. Some of the restaurants are seasonally closed or operate with limited hours.

The upstairs has vaulted ceilings, a large living room dining room combo, stone fireplace a fully equipped kitchen. There are three bedrooms upstairs with queen beds in each room. The first floor of the house has 2 bedrooms one with a king bed the other with a queen bed. It includes a full bathroom and a half bathroom in the laundry room.

We will consider allowing a pet (dog only) to be brought with guests on a case by case basis. We generally will allow one dog to be brought if under 50 pounds if guests agree to follow our house rules on pets. Please let us know if you wish to bring a pet and we can review the house policies.

Cell-phone service in Lake Lure and Rumbling Bald is spotty. Smart phones can be enabled via Settings to use the wi-fi at our house to make phone calls using the wi-fi calling function. If you have not previously used this function on your smart phone, it's a good idea to research the process so you can use wi-fi calling to place and receive phone calls while staying at the lake house.

Great location. Enjoyed the various watercraft at the house, the views, and the resort amenities. Spacious house for us (five adults, two teens, and one child). Bedroom/bathroom is a little strange (main level has three bedrooms but one bath; lower level has two bedrooms and two baths)

May Getaway
We went in early May and had a great time. Rumbling Bald is a nice resort with activities, pool (indoor and outdoor-in season). The onsite restaurants were good, and my wife enjoyed a nice spa day. The kids had plenty to do between all the activities and games at the home, plus the natural attraction of the lake. Being on the private lake-Bald Mountain was nice as it stayed quiet and lightly trafficked; I'm sure it gets much busier during the regular tourist season. Everything described was accurate. The layout of the house is neat for a short stay. Like most of the area, you need to be able bodied around steps. Hosts-Brownie and Leigh Anne-were both outstanding. Couldn't ask for nicer, more responsive people. Thank you for an excellent stay. Weather warning-not sure if it was typical (maybe the new typical), but it was pretty wet while we were there with rain showers and severe storms. The power even went out briefly. That said, we still had plenty of time to roam about, visit Chimney Rock for a day, etc.

The perfect lake stay!
This house was lovely! We really enjoyed having access to water activities right on the property. We went for a long weekend with a group of women and everyone had a great time. It was really nice to be able to use the property amenities that we spend the majority of our time at the house, because there was so much to do. We all agreed that we should come back for another trip!

Beautiful Lake House
My extended family and I had the most wonderful stay. The home was nice and comfortable and we loved the lakefront and spent most of our time chilling in the water or around the fire pit. The little electric boat was a ton of fun too! Communication and check-in was nice and easy. Would definitely stay again!

We had a nice time. The guys enjoyed fishing off the dock and the girls enjoyed the hot tub. Lots of bedrooms for everyone. The house was very clean. Unfortunately it rained a good bit while we were there so we didn’t get to spend much time at the resort beach

Great vacation spot.
We had a blast. This house offers a variety of things to do. Outside games, paddle boat with trolley motor they just added it was awesome. Canoes paddle boards. Kids loved playing pool. The resort has a very nice pool area and it’s in lake beach. The owners are also very great at keeping in contact with you if you need anything. Highly recommend this place.

Great week in the mountains
We were looking for a fun, casual week in the mountains with lots of hiking and lake fun with our dog and college age kids -and we got it. We wanted an option for golf, which this offered through this rental at the Rumbling Bald Resort, but we wound up not having time. The house was a perfect size for 8 adults and could have slept two more in the bunk bed room. Brownie was a great host, ( very communicative) even setting us up with a new grill and everything we needed for a fun campfire night- including all the ingredients for s’mores. Easy access to hiking and boat rentals, plus all of the canoes, kayaks, and paddle boards at the property. The pool table was a great bonus and lots of fun. First time in Lake Lure and we’d like to go back in the fall.

Great location
The location of the property and size were great for our family providing plenty of area to spread out. The pool in the community was wonderful and enjoyed by the teens in our group. The house needs some updated maintenance and cob webs were in all the high areas. Pots and pans were losing their coatings and utensils were limited, with handles coming off in the first use. More silverware is needed based on the occupancy.. overall we would return to the area but not to this property.

If you are looking for a great outdoor space, this is the place to stay. We had everything we needed and more. The kids had a great time playing in the stream outside that connects to the lake. We loved the fire pit and enjoyed the s’mores left by the host. Our host was extremely responsive and helpful. We used the resort amenities (it was close enough to walk) and hiked the trail right by the house. We would definitely stay again!
