Each of the property’s 17 two-bedroom units has a loft floor plan and includes a full kitchen. The resort offers numerous on-site amenities, including tennis, golf, and water activities on beautiful Lake Lure or Bald Mountain Lake. Nearby attractions are the 8,000 acre Biltmore Estate that features the Biltmore House, the largest privately owned house in the U.S., and Connemara — the 246-acre rural estate of Pulitzer-prize winning writer Carl Sandburg. Visitors will also appreciate the spectacular views and hiking trails at Chimney Rock State Park and want to take the scenic journey along Blue Ridge Parkway, known as “America’s Favorite Drive.”
