About Lake Lure

North Carolina's Most Prized Lake

One of the most stunning lakes in the nation is called Lake Lure, which is situated in the Hickory Nut Gorge in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

It has the notoriety to back it up, appearing in movies like Firestarter, Dirty Dancing, Thunder Road, A Breed Apart, and The Last of the Mohicans.

A Resort Town

Lake Lure is also the charming town that surrounds the lake. It includes resorts, hotels, restaurants, attractions, parks, and more.

Even though the town owns the lake and broad sandy beach, a private corporation looks after the beach's attractions, which include a water slide that leads into the lake and a water park that's ideal for a hot summer day.

This is a well-liked location for rock climbing, bouldering, and hiking. It is now a component of Chimney Rock State Park. Walk the 1.5-mile lap amid the cliffs and stones.

Picturesque Landscapes

Mountains tower above Lake Lure's waters in the form of slopes. Among the wooded hills is the 10-mile-long granite gorge known as the Hickory Nut Gorge.

Even in themselves, the dazzling blue seas are stunning. Tours of the area are available on pontoons, powerboats, sailboats, jet skis, and other watercraft.

Water activities, including water skiing, tubing, wakeboarding, kneeboarding, and more, are popular there.

A family-friendly destination, Lake Lure Beach has two waterslides, a volleyball net, and a covered picnic area.

Lakeside Fun

The 1925-built Lure Lake Flowering Bridge was demolished in 2011. You might argue that the bridge has held up well over time because it is now a communal garden that teems with vibrant flowers and vegetation.

Chimney Rock State Park has a variety of attractions, but the most well-known is the rock itself. A staircase or an elevator may reach the rock's peak.

The Dirty Dancing Festival energizes the entire lake region. It is a weekend-long celebration with movie showings, competitions, cuisine, and live music.

The weekend's main event is the renowned lift competition. Just like Johnny and Baby did, couples display their greatest lift over the water.
