Fantastic

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!!

Narnia was fantastic!

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.

Great weekend getaway house!

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

Lovely Home

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.

Horrible experience

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!

Great space, with a few quirks

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.

House for all ages.

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.

Our family enjoyed visiting Rumbling Bald and this home. Mostly positive experience.

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.

Summer Vac

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.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: 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!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: 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.
