Lake Lure Lakefront, Private, Paved Roads and Drive - Stiles Lake House

No Pets, No Exceptions LAKE LURE LAKEFRONT - INTERNET ACCESS - FIREPLACE - BOATHOUSE AND DOCK SPACE - PAVED DRIVE The modest exterior of this single-level Lake Lure lakefront home surprises with a large, well-appointed interior. You would likely never guess it was a 3-bedroom/2-bath home. It is ideal for a romantic getaway or just a quiet, peaceful escape with friends and family (sorry, no four-legged guests). This home is 2.8 miles to the Beach at Lake Lure, 4.1 miles to Chimney Rock State Park, and 16.4 miles to the Tryon International Equestrian Center (TIEC). Upon entering, the dining room has seating for 4 (plus 4 stools at the kitchen bar) and a lovely sitting area. Beyond is the living area, with additional seating, a gas fireplace, and a flat-screen TV (basic channels). Internet is also available. What the U-shaped kitchen lacks in size, it makes up for in the cabinet storage space while still offering the necessary full-size appliances (refrigerator, range, dishwasher, and microwave). The king-bed suite has doors that open onto the lakeside deck, providing comfort and a perfect way to wake in the morning. The room also has a cozy club chair and an adjoining full bathroom. There are 2 additional bedrooms with queen beds, a full bathroom, and a laundry closet in the hallway. This home offers comfortable sleeping for 6. If you want to bring additional guests, the sofa is available, or bring an inflatable mattress. The Outdoor Amenities Offer Additional Surprises The rocking chairs on the covered front porch beckon you to come and relax. Their lakeside deck has nice furniture (dining set and rocking chairs) and a gas grill. Enjoy your meal on the upper-level viewing deck of the boathouse or take in the area's splendor. Inside the boathouse are 2 kayaks for your use. The dock is a great place to sit and dangle your feet in the water or bring your boat for use on the lake (see the boating regulations for additional information). Lake Lure Beauty Year-Round This home is perfect for every season. In spring, the bushes and trees on the shady wooded lot and down the long drive will begin filling with leaves. Summer weather in the area is great most of the time. Autumn brings plenty of visitors to the area for the extraordinary colors. They are even more beautiful when reflected on the lake. With the absence of leaves on the trees in winter, you will see entirely new landscapes. Plus, the Lake Lure/Chimney Rock area and surrounding communities have so much to offer, including restaurants, shopping, and fun outdoor adventures you and your loved ones will never forget. See the Amenities and Notes for just a sampling of what is available. This home is 2.8 miles to the Beach at Lake Lure, 4.1 miles to Chimney Rock State Park, and 16.4 miles to the Tryon International Equestrian Center (TIEC). Several excellent golf courses are nearby, including Apple Valley Golf Course, Bald Mountain Golf Course, and Etowah Valley Country Club and Golf Resort, which Golf Digest rated as one of the top 50 golf destinations in the US. The Lake Lure/Chimney Rock area is conveniently situated for outdoor adventure, including horseback riding, tubing, water sports, hiking, museums, and theater; the Biltmore Estate and Village; shopping and restaurants; and so much more. It is only 15 minutes from Bat Cave, 35 minutes from Hendersonville, 50 minutes from Asheville, and about 2 hours from Charlotte, North Carolina. Also nearby are Pisgah National Forest (less than 1 hour from Lake Lure), with over 500,000 acres of protected forest, and DuPont State Recreational Forest (1.25 hours from Lake Lure), with over 10,000 acres. These forests feature hundreds of miles of hiking, biking, horse trails, exquisite waterfalls, and beautiful mountaintop views. If you and/or your children are fans of The Hunger Games book and movie, a scene with Katniss and Gale was shot at the Pisgah National Forest. A few small but significant scenes were also filmed at the DuPont State Recreational Forest. ​​​​​​​ Be Our Guest If you visit once, we are confident you'll return again and again for the lake, rest, beauty, fun, comfort, and hospitality.
