4 Br Private Vacation Home Vacation Rental In Lake Lure, North Carolina

Stay in a brand new, well-equipped home on a secluded mountain lake while enjoying all the benefits of a resort on your doorstep. Built in 2023, Summerscales is nestled on small private Bald Mountain Lake, but within the Rumbling Bald Resort. Summer, autumn, winter or spring enjoy our yard, patio, fire pit and water sports like swimming, paddle boarding, canoeing, and fishing right from our dock.

A unique home with plenty of custom features and a light, airy floor plan, Summerscales isn't just another Airbnb; it was designed and built with care as a home away from home. Views from every room of the house look east across the lake towards Youngs Mountain. Go for a swim, take one of the paddle boards or boats out, take a walk, or have a nap on the porch.

All resort amenities are 15 minutes on foot or 2 minutes by car. The resort has two 18-hole golf courses, mini golf, golf cart rentals, indoor and outdoor pools, pickle ball courts, lighted tennis courts, basketball court, spa, a playground, a fitness room and trail and a bar and two restaurants. Lake Lure, also a 2 minute drive, is scheduled to reopen in spring of 2026. Here you can rent a pontoon boat and cruise around the big lake.

THE HOUSE
Open the front door of the home and you will enter the foyer and immediately notice the beams lining the ceiling throughout the main level. To the right, the main living room's vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and two-story fireplace with gas logs catches the eye, as does the view of the lake and mountains from the windows. To the left, the chef's kitchen features a large reclaimed wood kitchen island and a dining area with views of the lake and mountains. Glass doors provide access to the back deck and side screened porch. One side of the porch houses another dining area and the other a large comfortable seating area. A convenient powder room is located next to the front door.

A quick climb up the cable rail staircase takes you to the landing overlooking the living room. Here there is a double daybed and chest of drawers. Down the hall is the master bathroom with vaulted ceiling that offers a double vanity, a rain shower and a freestanding tub in front of the lake view window. Further down the hallway, the master bedroom with vaulted ceiling and exposed beams offers a king size four poster bed, spacious closet, chair and storage chest.

The lower level is reached by taking the stairs down from the main level. Nine-foot ceilings, large windows and tall doors give this level an open feel. On the lower level you will find the “Fish Room” offering two twin beds and storage lockers. Next, the “Green Room” offers a queen-size bed, closet and chest of drawers for storage. These rooms share a large bathroom offering a tub and shower combination. At the other end of the hall is the "Map Room". This is the last bedroom which also serves as a recreation room.

HURRICANE HELENE UPDATE

Our area was unexpectedly hit by Hurricane Helene in September of 2024. Fortunately, Summerscales sustained only minor damage and we have already made repairs. The debris that washed into Bald Mountain Lake from the mountains has been removed, the water has cleared and been tested and approved for swimming and water sports. Almost all regular resort amenities are available. In addition, the surrounding community provides a number of high quality restaurants, shops and outdoor activities.

The main limits on the area include the inaccessibility of neighboring Lake Lure for swimming and water sports as removal of debris is ongoing. As well, Chimney Rock Village is under construction after suffering severe hurricane damage. While Asheville, a common day trip destination, also sustained hurricane damage to the River Arts District and Biltmore Village, many art studios still remain. There is still a lot of art of see in Asheville, the downtown area is intact and thriving with lots of art, bars and restaurants, and the Biltmore House and Grove Park Inn are still welcoming visitors.
