This home is absolutely beautiful. Great views, plenty to do and a great place to relax. Host is wonderful! Our family would stay here again.

Loves the house! It was well equipped and very clean. Great porch, awesome lake area and the detachable doc was the best! Kids and dog had a blast! Highly recommend!

This house was all and more than the description. It was a great place to stay. So clean, which is important to me. So very well furnished. Decorated so beautifully. The beds were great. The kitchen was well stocked. We enjoyed all of it. Had fires in the firepit. Took the Canoe and Paddleboat out. The lake is beautiful. The pool table and games were great. TV's in all room. The property manager was very cooperative and friendly. We would stay there again.

Well appointed. Lovely setting and easy access to Rumbling Bald amenities. Would definitely stay again!

Very nice property, clean and as listed. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Kitchen well appointed, beds comfortable. Only things that I can think of that would improve the stay would be: a comprehensive channel listing for the TV (channel guide on tv was incomplete, we discovered dozens of more channels midway through our stay and: additional towel bars in the downstairs bathroom (easily overcome by hanging towels in bedroom closets). Convinient to local attractions, grocery store, etc. We would rent again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time at "Bliss by the Lake!" The house was incredibly clean and honestly looks like it was just renovated. The beds were all comfortable (except the pull out sofa, don't recommend) and the screened in porch was perfect for relaxing and looking for roaming bears. There was plenty of kitchen stuff and we cooked/grilled a lot. We had a couple issues early on, but they were resolved immediately by the awesome property manager, Kathleen! The internet was super fast if you wired in (we had multiple people working/taking calls during the week) and otherwise average if you were using wifi. There is basically zero cell service at the house and nearby. As a heads up, there were towels but otherwise no bathroom essentials (e.g., shampoo, conditioner, body soap). The location is great for its privacy, but the mountain roads are quite windy and very dark at night. We highly recommend both the Lake Adventure Boating Company & Canopy Ridge Ziplining (both fairly close to the house). Having the Rumbling Bald resort just down the road was really nice as well. We utilized their gym, kayaked on the lake, and tried out the lazy river. In our opinion, it was not really walkable (hills, lack of sidewalks), but it was a short drive (<5 min).

The house was so lovingly presented, we all felt right at home immediately. It was the best stocked house that we have ever rented. Would highly recommend this home!

The resort area is wonderful! Beautiful beach surrounded by mountains with plenty of activities. The house is nice and spacious. It could use some general updating though. Most of the kitchen appliances need updating. It is also a very small kitchen to work in. Very little counter space.Furniture is getting worn out. There was some broken furniture on the porch and the dock. I feel the property management company could pay closer attention to this property . I also feel the cleaning company could do a much better job overall inside and out!Other than that we had a very nice time!

Our host, Sue, was fantastic with communication and meeting our needs. The only recommendation I would make is to bring dry firewood with you. There were many options for entertaining ourselves regardless of the age you are. Plus so many options of activities both at the property and in the close by area. We really want to go back!

Our host, Sue, was helpful and kept us up to date when there was a power outage in the area. The property actually had more amenities than were mentioned in the VRBO listing. Would not hesitate to go back.

We had a great time visiting with family. We appreciated the fact that the house was very clean and neat since we did have a 10 month old and 8 month old with us. We would love to stay at this house again sometime next year. Thank you!

Property was roomy, clean, and offered nice outdoor porch for lounging. Since our visit was in October, we enjoyed building roaring fires in the fireplace. Would definitely stay there again.

Bliss by the Lake was a lovely, clean and well equipped home during our one week stay. My family enjoyed our stay and I would certainly rent the property again. My only suggestions to the owners would be to update the kitchen and perhaps the beds and certainly, something could be done to have trash pickup. I am aware there is a bear problem and realize trash can not be left out but it was a real imposition, especially upon leaving with a full vehicle, to take the last of the trash. We attempted to do so only to be stopped due to an ongoing race. We had to take the trash back to the house and deposit it in the bin. Other than that, our trip was most enjoyable and your management most accommodating.

We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend with extended family at Bliss by the Lake. We were a group of 10 (6 adults, 2 teens, and 2 children), and there was plenty of space for us all. The canoes and kayak were great to have there, and the quietness of the lake was lovely. We did appreciate having access to the resort as well, where we swam at the beach and played mini golf. We certainly would consider returning to this property for another family getaway.

My family rented this house over Memorial Day weekend. We were five adults, a 7-year-old and 3-year-old twins. We loved this house! It was clean, comfortable, beautifully decorated with wonderful original art, and had everything we needed. The kids loved the foosball table and the dock and we all loved the screened-in porch. The layout of the house is great because the kitchen, dining area, living room and porch are all one big area, so we were all together even when some people were cooking or playing with the kids or setting the table. It rained for a good portion of our stay, so we didn't get to be outside as much as we'd hoped, so we'll be back to enjoy the boats, lake and dock more! Having access to the Rumbling Bald Lake Resort facilities is wonderful! We played putt putt golf, enjoyed the pool and lazy river, and the kids loved the playground/beach area and the ice cream. We all fell in love with this area and the resort itself. The staff at Buffalo Junction Properties were FANTASTIC to work with. They were responsive, professional and very personable. A staff member and her husband met us to check us in and had resort and house information for us, and gave very clear check-in and check-out instructions. I would definitely recommend this house! We loved every inch of it!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed our stay at Bliss By the Lake. We all enjoyed the canoes and kayak. The pictures of the house did not do it justice. It was better than what we expected. For new comers I would suggest taking the Lake Lure tour on the pontoon boat. The only negative we had was the driveway. We had a front wheel drive and had to back out of the driveway up the hill. Driving forward up the rock driveway would result in just spinning the tires.

The layout of the property was great for our family. Everyone enjoyed the canoes, kayak, and amenities. The only complaint we had was the rock driveway. We had two front wheel drive cars and had to back out of the driveway in order to get out. If you tried to drive out forward the tires would just spin about half way up due to the steep grade. I would suggest paving the upper two thirds of the driveway.

It was my husband and I, my 86-year old mother, my sister, my two sons (12 and 14), a friend (13), and my niece (16). The kids had fun every day paddling Doc Holiday out into the lake and playing 'king of the hill'. We also kayaked and canoed every day. It was peaceful, quiet, and yet there was lots to do. We went to Sliding Rock one day and Chimney Rock one day. Also visited the resort pool (small pool). The house was clean and as advertised. Would definitely recommend to a friend!

We enjoyed the property. Nice and relaxing. The only reason it doesn't get five stars is because you have to wash your own towels and take off the garbage and pay a $175 cleaning fee. Other than that, we had a great time.

We enjoyed the canoes and Kayaks

We really enjoyed this unique home, the pictures do not do it justice! Well equipped kitchen and seating for our group. Private dock, canoes, kayaks a great bonus. Only negative is the driveway was a bit rough to get up and down, gravel needed to be resurfaced, many ruts to maneuver due to the rain fall. Otherwise a superb accommodation!

Bliss by the Lake was just perfect for a long weekend gathering of our group of 5 long-time girlfriends. The house was comfortable in every way, from the seating area around the indoor fireplace, to the open-plan kitchen with large dining table, to the game table just the right size for working jigsaw puzzles, to the screened porch, to the well-placed bedrooms. The sounds of rushing water could easily be heard from the screened porch, adding to the tranquility of the setting. LOVED the fire pit, the view of the lake, the dock and the canoes. A lovely 3.5 mile hiking trail was just down the street. Grocery shopping was easy at the well-stocked Ingles in Lake Lure (where you can also buy firewood) - about an 18 minute drive from the house. We did not take advantage of the massages offered by the resort, but would have if we'd been there a day longer. All in all, a terrific place to relax with old friends.

Wonderful, spacious cabin. Our kids loved that it was a circle. Great little stream going into the lake was perfect for our kids.

My family just spent a week at Bliss by the Lake. My husband and me, my sister and her 16 year old daughter, my 86 year old mother, my sons 14 and 12, and a 13 year old friend. It was wonderful! We went on the lake every day. The kids enjoyed the canoes and kayak. My sister had a hip replacement three weeks ago, so Doc Holiday was perfect for her to be able to enjoy the lake with us. We played badminton, cards, watched movies, hiked, played in the pool, putt putt, canoed, kayaked, floated, swam, fished, and read. The house was great. Plenty of room, clean, beautiful, comfortable beds. I highly recommend the house and location. We can't wait to go back.
