The house was big and roomy and very homey and extremely clean for me and my family. It was close to the lake and pool area. A perfect place just to relax and unwind and I would definitely recommend this property!!

The location (very close to resort) was very convenient and the size and design of the home were great for 4 of us but this home could easily support 10 people. We loved it and we will be back.

We were far enough from town to enjoy the peace and quiet, but still close to the resort to be able to enjoy all of the great things it had to offer. One of the best mini vacations we’ve had

Loved the size of the home, it was very spacious beautiful layout. It was really great. I feel as though there could have been a little bit better. Clean up specifically on the outside's patio areas where there was a lot of spider webs and things of that nature, which didn't make it essentially comfortable enough to want to relax on the outside. Patios are the front porch area. Other than that, the house again was beautifully made. The outlet was excellent. There was definitely enough room for the guests. And we had a great time, and we definitely plan to return for another visit.

I called on Friday to let Vacasa know the heat was not working. I was told by the rep on the phone that a service ticket was placed. On Saturday I responded to a text message from Vacasa and explained the heat was not working. At one time, I was told the home didn't have central heat. It was supposed to, it just was not working. After going back and forth most of the day on Saturday a service tech came by Sat. night. He said he thought he smelled gas as soon as he walked in the home. He worked on the heat and said the motor was shot and could not be repaired that night. They suggested we leave the fireplace burning with the fan up. Sunday the heat still was not working. The service tech worked on the heat Sunday evening but was never able to get it working. They brought us 3 space heaters for our last night at the home. We were there for 2 nights with no heat, during Valentine's day weekend. SMH!

This was a large and well priced space. We loved sunrise breakfast on the porch. Two things. There was no blow dryer and tech support replied the day after we left "check the bathroom." Ha! Good idea. Also, while there were a lot of kitchen utensils, they pans, spatulas and knives we cheap. dull, sticky and outdated. Overall, I'd recommend, just bring your own hairdryer.

We had plenty of room to spread out for our family of 7. Impending baby kept a few of our crowd at home but we would have had plenty of room. The kitchen had everything we needed to make meals all week. The house was clean except for out of reach spiderwebs on the ceiling and outside windows. Our favorite spot was the sun room! We stayed out there a lot and ate all our meals there! Mornings were quiet and peaceful in that room as we watched the hummingbirds. So glad we had the Rumblingbald resort passes to enjoy the scenery and lake ! We had a fabulous week here !

This house was perfect for our needs. It was very spacious and open. Even though it’s in a neighborhood, the large trees give it a private feel. The kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed to make our meals.

We loved how quiet and peaceful the home was. The size was great! We loved the back room with all the windows. We spent every night playing family games and hanging out there.

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.

Girls Trip
There were 5 of us staying in the home for a Girls' Weekend in Lake Lure. It was spacious enough so that all 5 of us were quite comfortable. The sun room provided a great space for cards night, and the deck was our base camp for the weekend. We all basically hung out on the deck any time we weren't out sight seeing. You would have thought that 5 cooks, 1 kitchen would have presented some problems, but nope! All 5 of us were able to move in and out of the kitchen and work on the counter space in harmony! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

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.

I have absolutely no complaints. I’d like to thank the homeowners for sharing their beautiful home with us. We will definitely be staying here when we come back to Lake Lure.

Great house with tons of windows and natural light! Very good amenities in the kitchen, plenty of space in the home! The "porch" with the fireplace was perfect for morning coffee and views of the beautiful landscape! Some cobwebs in the residence behind the beds which I wish I hadn't found! But all and all would stay here again!

Great Location Just Needs a Shine
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.

Very nice house over all!!! Cons: Hard to get to and find. Many winding roads, conflicting names for resort. Maintenance needs to review all the lights. Some bulbs burned out, some switches didn't seem to do anything, one lamp in master bedroom has broken light socket. Clothes Drier does not dry clothes very well. Jets on the bathtub do not come on...This was a big disappointment to my wife.

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.

Reviewer Comments:
It was really a beautiful house, pretty much had everything you needed. Minus a wine opener. It was extremely far from the center of lake lure. It's on rumbling bald mountain. Which in my opinion is meant for families with little kids. Everything closed early. Without the use of the golf cart we had to get in car to drive to amenities. It was ridiculous. The house itself was really beautiful but lots of cobwebs, spiders and saw some bugs in house. It also smelled funny when you first walk in and again on the enclosed porch.

Forested House in Lake Lure
We loved our week spent at this property. Everything was as described (wifi, access to resort amenities, etc.) The covered patio was the perfect spot for our 6 person 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.
