An incredible mountaintop escape in Lake Lure, NC
Newski's Mountaintop Lodge is the best of both worlds -- it's peaceful, secluded & private but only 5 minutes away from Rumbling Bald Resort at Lake Lure. You'll be surrounded by nature & might even see deer run through the backyard or bunnies hop across the driveway. The Lodge is about 20 minutes from downtown Lake Lure/Chimney Rock area.
It's the perfect blend of feeling removed from it all without being more than a few minutes drive from it all.
Sometimes we go explore & adventure like crazy, and sometimes we go and literally never leave the house. You can do as little or as much as you want!
We love feeling like we're in the middle of nowhere at Newski's Mountaintop Lodge when we're actually right in the middle of somewhere as amazing as Lake Lure...
Lake Lure, NC
If you're not yet familiar with Lake Lure, NC, get ready to fall in love with it. Lake Lure is the perfect hybrid of a mountain escape & lake town. It's nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina and has all the mountain activities + lake activities you could want.
Some of our personal faves are the endless hiking options including world famous Chimney Rock, horseback riding (5 mins from the Lodge!), zip lining (also 5 mins), exploring the perfectly kitschy (in the best way) mountain town of Chimney Rock, gem-mining, & more.
Our membership at Rumbling Bald Resort (5 mins from the Lodge) gives us (& you!) access to an array of private amenities, including private lakefront beach area, pontoon rentals, kayak & SUP rentals, two gorgeous golf courses, pools, spa, gym, sports courts, restaurant, coffee shop & more.
There's a reason people vacation in Lake Lure year after year...after year. We have a feeling once you visit you might do the same. And we hope you'll stay at Newski's Mountaintop Lodge when you do!
