The Town of Lake Lure encompasses 13.25 square miles including the lake with a large central body of deep water, three long bays, an island of seven acres and many small bays and inlets with a background of forest clad hills and mountains. The climate is unusually temperate as Lake Lure lies in the “thermal belt” of the western North Carolina mountains and foothills. The lake is the number one attraction and the reason so many families visit Lake Lure year after year. National Geographic has called Lake Lure one of the most beautiful man-made lakes in the world. 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.

Description:Chalet Switz is a stone chalet with two-foot thick stone walls, stone-glass-Douglas fir construction and 23-foot cathedral ceiling. n nThe chalet appeals most to those who love nature, are in shape and young at heart. n nThe small chalet is situated on the very top of 4000-foot Grassy Mountain in a spacious residential neighborhood in Little Switzerland. Youc3a2e282ace284a2ll be a 20-minute walk from the village center along a quiet, no-outlet country road with gorgeous views, wildlife and about 8 residences. The distance is a mile with an 800-foot drop in altitude going down to the village. You can continue from there on foot to Grassy Falls. n nIf you enjoy and appreciate natural materials and fine craftsmanship, small and varied spaces, a wood-burning stone fireplace, down-filled pillows, Lauren linens and Kohler bath fixtures, a thick cedar shake roof, and a pleasant yard with berry and rose bushes, youc3a2e282ace284a2ll love the chalet. That is, providing you can live happily without a microwave, dishwasher, ice-maker, TV, internet connection (internet access is nearby), AC (not needed due to altitude, insulation and venting) or stand-up shower. For bathing, a hand-held shower is used in the Greek tub. In the kitchen, all-wood cabinets hold a variety of hand-painted dinnerware, and there are stainless steel/copper-lined pots and pans, a drip coffee machine, toaster, full-size refrigerator-freezer and stove/oven. n nLittle Switzerland is a historic 100-year old town graced with dining at the expansive Switzerland Inn looking south into the valley, intriguing shops, abundant open space and wildlife, and interesting old homes nestled in some of the most spectacular scenery in the US, all located only short drives from Penland fine craft studios, spectacular hiking, and Asheville. n nChalet Switz offers rich Blue Ridge mountain ecology, imaginative architectural design, fine craftsmanship, and sustainable living. It shelters like a wine cellar yet offers panoramic views of the night sky from bedc3a2e282ace2809dboth east and west--in one of the few places east of the Mississippi that does not suffer from light pollution. n nDetailed information on outings and activities in the area are available on the Chalet Switz website. n... more info >>
