Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved our spot on the lake! Our favorite time was fishing in the evening on the dock, watching the sunset, beavers, and birds. The house was spotless and any questions we had were answered immediately. Tip: We noticed an additional single parking spot for the house on our way out. We would rent this house again!

Lovely Family Getaway

We have spent a long weekend at this property for the last two years. There are 11 of us (three couples and five kids). The house fits us perfectly. The kitchen is well stocked, and there's a nice long indoor table. The dock is lovely and the water is deep.

Memorial Day week at Dancing Waters Lodge

We had a fantastic week at Dancing Waters Lodge. The home was spacious and well appointed. It was immaculately clean and was very well stocked for cooking and kitchen supplies. The lake was beautiful and very tranquil, quiet and peaceful. Weather was fantastic low 70’s low humidity, and generally a nice breeze. Our property managers were fantastic. Couldn’t have asked for a nicer week. We will be back.

Great location for family fun

Loved this place! Had kids aged 5-10, parents, and grandparents. being part of Rumbling Bald was very convenient, having access to the pools, beach, restaurant (great pizza, btw) made the visit even more enjoyable. Family loved the paddleboards and kayaks, as well as fishing off the dock. Apple picking, waterfall hikes, and creameries all within 45min-1 hr, so plenty of activities to do. Beds were comfortable, and kitchen was well stocked. Grocery is 20 min away but very nice and large. We would definitely come back!!!

We had such a relaxing time on the water and made full use of all the toys provided! The house is so well laid out for our large family - my mom was able to have a first floor bedroom that was so helpful. Highly recommend for large families.

Excellent vacation

There were 8 of us - 2 families of 4 and I can’t say enough good things about our stay. Beautiful home, even better than advertised. Property managers were helpful and attentive (small issue with ice maker not working). We had such a wonderful time swimming, floating around in the lake and….relaxing!! Would definitely consider returning.

Just Beautiful

It was even more beautiful than described! The early mornings on the Lake was something I've only seen in movies! It truly is breath takingly beautiful! The whole family each had a comfortable sleeping area and plenty of restrooms to use! Surrounding areas had so much to do for whole family (Zip lining, canoeing, kayaking, hiking, golfing, to name a few) It was perfect for us all to come together and celebrate our 40th anniversary! Highly recommend! Thank you for sharing your place!

Peaceful lake vacaction

We loved this lakefront vacation home. We were a group of 10, including 4 kids. The kids had a blast on the paddle boards and kayaks. Since there were no motorized vehicles in the water it felt like the safest waterfront vacation we've had. The kids played for hours while we sat on the deck or kayaked around near them, but we weren't worried about their safety (like we would be at the ocean)! It was amazing. The house was roomy and beautiful and had everything we could need. We saw a huge turtle in the water, lots of bats (yay!), a beaver and so many fish. This was such a peaceful and lovely vacation spot!

Fabulous Lake House

When looking for a property we wanted a place big enough for each of kids to have their own room so a friend can come. Space was large. Kids enjoyed having lower area downstairs to themselves. There were plenty of amenities. The lake is nice and quiet. The screened in porch was my favorite place to relax. Sue was wonderful with communication and answered all questions and concerns quickly. Would definitely stay here or work with these property managers again.

Great location within Rumbling Bald Resort

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I rented this home for a long weekend stay during my sons wedding and was extremely happy with the home and all that it had to provide. As with most areas in Lake Lure, the wifi was spotty but tolerable to work with. Better than not having any at all! Couldn't use the canoe, paddle boards or kayaks due to them be literally covered by red ants, which was a disappointment, but we still had plenty to do with our other activities. Very quiet, beautiful location.

We wish we had known resort restaurants were closed on Monday & Tuesdays. Our stay was Sunday - Thursday. Going 5 miles takes 20 minutes 😉😊 No complaints.

Perfect Getaway #2

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: 2nd stay at this location. 1st was in Sept 2020 and then in May 2021. Seeing that we booked this property twice within a calendar year should be the best indication that this charming house on Bald Mountain Lake is the perfect getaway. The Lake is small but great for swimming, drifting on a tube or kayaking. If you desire a busy lake with boats and activities....Lake Lure is at your fingertips...but this lake is for folks that prefer it quiet. Great place to unplug your devices and disconnect for a few days.

The house is over-represented and does not have items listed in the description. Trees block view of the lake from each deck. Torn screen lets bugs in.

Take a Lake Break!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A group of 12 of us gathered together here for Easter weekend, and we had an outstanding experience at this home. Plenty of space for us all to spread out. The kitchen was very well stocked, and as a plus, the dining room table was big enough for all 12 of us to gather (there was even a high chair for the toddler).Two levels of decks gave wonderful views. We loved that half of the top deck was screened in, and the space was safe enough for the toddler to explore to his heart's content. We also sat out on the dock and enjoyed morning coffee and evening cocktails lakeside.The highlight is the lake: it's serene and beautiful, and we enjoyed the options of kayaks, paddleboards, and a canoe to explore.Just an wonderful experience in every way!

Beautiful Home on Bald Lake

This home is located on Bald Lake. The home has been updated and includes all the amenities we were looking for. The owners thoughtfully provided kayaks, a couple of paddle boards and a canoe. We could have fished off the dock and caught all the bluegill and bass we wanted. I especially liked the back deck. Part of the deck is screened in (to keep any bugs out) and part of it is open. We thoroughly enjoyed sitting outside and staring at the lake. I especially appreciated the management company. When we suggested that the pillows might need to be provided, they were they in a matter of hours to replace the old with new pillows. I also appreciated all their advice in pre-trip planning when they suggested things to do and places to see. Great place with great views. I wouldn't hesitate to go back again!
