Once you decide to leave the house (and many do not). Activities are
numerous. There are water sports on Lake Lure and French Broad River to include:  boating, kayaking, water-skiing, tubing, and fishing. Hike chimney rock mountain (10-15 minutes away) and many other trails including the
famous trail to hickory nut water-falls where the movie "Last of the
Mohicans" was filmed.  Guided sunset tours of the lake are available. Fly-fishing on the French Broad and Davidson rivers is close by.  There is also great shopping and nightlife are 30 minutes away in Asheville, NC.

After the activities view the sunset over the lake and mountains
as it settles into the Hickory Nut Gorge from the back deck or patio.  Personally my kids and I like to sit outside in the back yard right at dusk and watch for fire flies. It was a first time experience for them last summer. The property is extremely quiet and peaceful and I have never seen so many stars in the sky. We hope you enjoy the home as much as we do.

obviously not right next to an open door or window. An additional cleaning fee of $300.00 minimum will apply if there is evidence of smoking in the
house, possibly more if necessary.

that individual is responsible for the condition of the

Reservations and Deposits:
* The required Damage Deposit and rental agreement will serve as your Reservation Guarantee. The deposit will be returned within 30 days, of your departure assuming no damage has been inflicted on the home. I  hope that it will be even sooner if there is no damage.  

The house is checked before and after each visit, an inventory taken, and photos taken to ensure you are not falsely accused of damage.

* Once the deposit check and rental agreement is received the time
will be reserved. A tentative reservation will be made on the calendar until then, once verbal or e-mail confirmation is obtained. The Rental agreement can be e-mailed to you per request. Payment of the full rent amount should be received 30 days prior or you can send both at once and save a stamp. If the rent
check is not received before then, I will attempt to contact you to
see if the "check is in the mail". If I cannot reach you, I will assume you have decided to go to Hawaii instead.

**Cancellation:
If you cancel at least 30 days prior to the arrival date your
deposit will be returned minus a reservation fee of $100.00. I highly recommend the purchase of Trip Interruption Insurance, which covers many reasons for cancelling. You can find vacation insurance providers on the internet.
For later cancellations, the deposit will be refunded only if the
home is re-rented for the same time period. This is very likely in the peak season and Holidays. If the home is not re-rented, no
refund will be given.

* once a reservation is confirmed:
The concierge and management team will make contact and meet you upon
your arrival to provide you with keys, information and instructions about various aspects or operations of the house. To ensure the accommodations run
smoothly, the concierge staff will be available for guests 9am to 5pm, Monday through Sunday for reservations, check- ins/check-outs, key distribution, check-in tours, information about the surrounding area, and to answer any questions regarding your stay at the property and in Lake Lure.  All linens are
provided, as well as paper products.
