Fairfield Mountains Resort

The Lake Lure area provides many recreational opportunities, from world class golf, incredible fishing and hunting, hiking, rafting and canoeing and pleasure cruises on the lake to area restaurants and parks. The Activities Center has tennis, two pools and many activities for the entire family. Nearby you will find many attractions--the Biltmore Estate is the largest mansion in America and; Chimney Rock Park has one of the greatest waterfalls in the world.

Golf at Fairfield Mountains gives you a choice of the Dan Maples designed Apple Valley Country Club, or the beautiful Bald Mountain Golf Club (which was used in the filming of the movie "Dirty Dancing"). Both are beautiful and challenging golf courses with extended seasons due to Hickory Nut Gorge's isothermal properties. Hole-by-hole tours of the courses are available or preview the signature holes of each course.
