Visitors come to enjoy the 720 acres of lake, sparkling clean beach area, and the incredible Blue Ridge mountain range including Chimney Rock. History records that the idea of a resort community in western North Carolina was the vision of Dr. Lucius B. Morse. Soliciting the financial backing of his brothers, Dr. Morse purchased 400 acres around Chimney Rock in 1902 to create Chimney Rock Park. Additional acreage was acquired over the next several years to bring the total to 8,000 acres. Dr. Morse conceived the idea of building a dam on the Rocky Broad River to create a lake and a year-round resort. The dam was completed in September 1926, forming the lake which was named Lake Lure by Dr. Morse’s wife, Elizabeth Parkenson. The Town of Lake Lure was incorporated in 1927. The Town of Lake Lure is a great location for sports including swimming, golfing, hiking or serious rock climbing. You can enjoy a wide variety of water activities, ranging from canoeing and fishing to pleasure boating and water skiing.

Be sure and read the 2010 Boat PoliciesManager's comments: This is one of the nicest family homes we offer. The layout is terrific for several families as private areas are available on all three floors; even the covered porches are private. The furnishings and décor are pretty and the kitchen is one of our favorites. The owner has supplied a lot of amenities; hot tub, game tables and boat. There are steps to the waterfront, but it is gradual and once you get there, the beach area and amenities are so comfortable, you can spend the whole day just lounging! **Memorial Week through Labor Day require a minimum stay of one week**... more info >>
