We enjoyed the house. Great location. The large floor to ceiling windows, more than ample sleeping space and spacious screened porch made for a great weekend. The decor is definitely out dated but it was fine.

Graduation time at lake lure academy. My granddaughter was Valedictorian, so no way I was not going to be there. This house was perfect. I felt like I was living in a tree house. All the birds,rabbits and squirrels but no Bears.Having all the amenities of the club was great. Time at the pools. Kids activities on the beach and Scoops ice cream. Eating at legendsHaving the family for cake , all sitting around in the kitchen. Hope to return when the lake reopens

The house is great, good accommodations. The screened in porch is a delight to sit in the mornings. My only suggestion is for the outside & inside house to be clear all spider webs there were a lot of them.

Peaceful and Quiet, Beautiful Setting

Nice "older" place, main fireplace doesn't work (even after repairman came). Pilot light works, but that's about all. That needs to come off the listing, as it was disappointing not to have on a cold night. Master bed is like sleeping on a board, so we moved to the other BR on the main level. Paid for ammenities (passes) we didn't use, but if you golf or use the beach/pool/putt-putt, you'd be good. Area is gorgeous! About an hour to Asheville. Good restaurants in the area. Definitely not handicap accessible.

Good location just needs a deep clean as of Early October. I would highly recommend upgrading the mattress in the master suite and making some furniture upgrades. It reminded me of visiting my grandparent's home. Still a beautiful place. God Bless.

Wedding

We traveled to Lake Lure for our daughter’s wedding. The house we rented was absolutely beautiful and very spacious. It accommodated 5 adults and one 9 month old infant very comfortably. The location was beautiful. I wish we could have spent more time there, but with wedding festivities, we were in and out. The master bedroom was amazing. We hope to return in the future. It was worth the stay.

staying at Narnia

The property was excellent. We wish we would have known prior to booking that tv reception was a no go. Also we have Verizon and could very seldom get connection. Of course the water main break at the restaurant, with no other restaurants nearby was a negative. The beach was wonderful. My granddaughter wanted to go on the lazy river, but was told they were short tubes and would have to have her own. The miniature golf was great. All in all, the house itself was great, but would not return due to the internet -Tv problem.

Loved Narnia on Lake Lure!

My family (wife, 2 children & mother-in-law) stayed at this property for 5 nights. The house was immaculately clean and had enough room for everyone to spread out. We spent most of our mornings and evenings in the sun room that overlooked the lake. During the day we went down to the beach, the kids swam while the adults enjoyed kayaking and stsnd-up paddle boarding. The only complaint is that the wi-fi and cell coverage in the house is close to non-existent. I knew this from the previous reviews, but didn’t account for its impact on setting the kids up to watch movies at night. So plan to bring lots of CDs, board games, books and you’ll be fine. Overall the house is a gem!

Awesome stay!

This is one of the most beautiful rentals we have had and we rent 4 to 6 times a year in various vacation spots. The view of the lake was good but would not been once all of the leaves fill in the trees. The only problem we encountered was very bad cell reception and internet. When we arrived our code did not work for the door and being there was no cell or internet we had to drive back down the mountain to call to get it corrected. My husband was able to use the business center to work remotely since he could not in the rental. Everything else about our stay was wonderful.
