Description Description
Woods Escape is an ideal starting point for your Western North Carolina vacation with countless lake and mountain adventures right at your fingertips. Located in the gated resort community of Rumbling Bald on Lake Lure, this vacation rental comes with access to resort amenities, including private beach access, a children’s water park with a lazy river, an indoor pool and hot tub, saunas, outdoor pools, tennis courts, miniature golf, and two championship golf courses.

This light-filled home is outfitted with top-of-the-line furnishings and everything you'll need to keep your group comfortable. Making home-cooked meals at Woods Escape is a pleasure in the fully equipped gourmet kitchen, and there's room for everyone to gather at the family dining table and kitchen bar. In nice weather, cookout on the gas grill and enjoy the dining area on the screened porch. Warm up by the centerpiece stone hearth and watch a movie, or challenge a friend to a rousing game of ping-pong.

You'll rest easy with the main bedroom on the ground floor, featuring a beautiful full bath with a garden tub and double vanity. The huge upper level bedroom proves to be a favorite with the kids with its own living area away from the rest of the house.

Tucked away in the lush woods overlooking a rushing creek, Woods Escape offers a ton of activities with a spacious, private backyard, and a creekside fire pit. Get outdoors and lounge with a covered front deck and an expansive back deck. A crackling wood fire in the fire pit is perfect for roasting marshmallows in the evening - there's nothing like spending time with family and friends in nature. Discover the magic of a mountain lake vacation at Woods Escape!

Beautiful home, with a great layout for a large family.
Beautiful home, with a great layout for a large family. The home was spotless. The guest rooms were very comfortable. This house had everything we needed to enjoy some family time after Christmas. We especially enjoyed the fireplace every evening, making a cold damp night into a cozy, warm atmosphere. Our two granddaughters, ages 9 and 6, enjoyed the Chimney Rock Gem Place. A fun experience sifting through the sand to find gems. We also drove into Asheville to see the Christmas lights at the Arboretum. It was magical. Everyone enjoyed the ping pong table. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this place, and would certainly recommend it to friends.

Enjoyed the garage/game room a lot as well as the fire pit. The master suite was great! The resort was a lot of fun (pickleball, pools, beach, restaurants, mini golf), only regret was our excursions; should have just stayed at Rumbling Bald.

The house was beautiful and clean!
The house was beautiful and clean we used the kitchen most nights. It provided a tough space to hold our entire family - recommend the upstairs space for those with small kids. Wish we had more time to just relax by the pool and beach!

The property was nicely cleaned and well taken care of.
This property was beautiful. Our family had a great few days. We even saw a few bears right in the backyard. The property is in a good location making it easy to use the resort amenities or stay home and relax. There was plenty to do on the property which was nice for the rainy days we had. The property was nicely cleaned and well taken care of. We really enjoyed our stay here!

Your house and property are absolutely beautiful.
Your house and property are absolutely beautiful - so clean, comfortable, and welcoming. Thank you for your attention to detail which made our stay even more enjoyable. We loved playing ping pong, air hockey, and basketball! With our 2 teens. Although it was chilly, sitting outside listening to the stream and trying to spot a bear was magical. Our favorite meals around Lake Lure were at Highlands and market. If you go to Asheville, Pack's Tavern was a hit! We had a wonderful time and hope to come back in the future.

Beautiful Property!
We loved this house! It is very neat, modern and provided such a relaxing feeling. Extremely clean. There is a small stream running in the back yard that was perfect. You could sit on the back deck and just listen to the water flow. Easy access roads were a must for us and this worked wonderfully for us.

Great Landing Spot for Adult Family Attending a Cousin's Wedding
20 and 30 somethings loved the interior! Wanted to take the house home with them. Lucky enough to see some black bear. Everything you will need to cook, shower, play, etc - even some toys for the little ones!

Rockstar Home
From the minute you pull into the driveway, you feel at home, once inside the home is like being in heaven, so quiet and peaceful, has anything you might need for your stay including for the kids. My wife and I stayed here for six days with our six boys and had the most wonderful vacation. If the owners would sell this property I would be first in line, we loved the neighborhood so much we are looking for property to build. If you get a chance, rent a pontoon boat and explore the lake. This neighborhood has the best amenities, kayaking, boats rentals, tennis, indoor and outdoor pools, putt putt golf, restaurants, spa, you name it. Lake Lure is definitely the place to be and this home is the best to rent, and we have rented several nice places from Carolina Mornings. And don’t forget to enjoy your coffee on the deck and hear the peaceful sound of the stream outback.

Exceeded Expectations!
When we saw the house for the first time, we knew we had made a good decision to go with this home. Beautiful home especially with the landscape lighting in the evening. Inside was gorgeous and no detail missed. I was surprised about the creek running nearing the back of the house. My daughters would open their bedroom windows to listen to the creek when in bed. Everyone of us felt like we had our best sleep ever during our stay. The beds are very comfortable and each bedroom had its own bathroom which was nice for the kids. For the first time ever the kids did not fight over which bedroom they got...they liked them all. The wifi was strong and all the televisions had no pause in the streaming signal meaning no waiting on buffering. The back deck was enjoyable with the propane grill and a separate screened in porch with a dining table and chairs if you prefer to eat outside. The fire pit was amazing which we took advantage of and the swing on the tree was a nice touch in the back yard. We deer visitors in the mornings. I would recommend everyone rent the golf cart. It was nice to jump on the golf cart and drive to the clubhouse in the mornings and exercise or even get a massage which the wife took advantage of. The amenities of this resort made the stay even greater but even without the amenities, the home itself was worth the money and would definitely stay there again if the owners would have us.

Amazing Stay!
We had a great time staying at Woods Escape. It was so nice that we’re already planning a return trip. The home was cozy and welcoming with everything you need. Nestled in the woods give you plenty of privacy if you are looking to getaway from the busy life but all the amenities you need making you feel like your staying at home. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Absolutely Perfect!
We rented this house for a family vacation, 7 adults and 1 child. There was plenty of room for everyone. The outdoor space was perfect, huge deck, firepit and screened in porch. The kitchen was very well stocked, had all the essentials to cook with. Everything was excellent quality, the towels were thick and not what I would typically expect from a rental. There were many small touches that made our stay very enjoyable. The amenities at Rumbling Bald Resort were great to have. I highly recommend this property!
