About Rumbling Bald

Tucked along scenic Lake Lure and surrounded by the Blue Ridge Mountains, Rumbling Bald is secluded yet eminently accessible from major metro areas. Charlotte, Asheville, and Raleigh, N.C.; Knoxville and Nashville, Tenn.; and Greenville and Spartanburg, S.C. are all between one and five hours away. The idyllic retreat features two contrasting 18-hole layouts: W.B. Lewis-designed Bald Mountain and Dan Maples-designed Apple Valley.

Apple Valley stretches nearly 6,800 yards and features expansive views of Bald Mountain and Lake Lure. With 75% of shots either level or downhill, Apple Valley offers a unique golfing experience for a mountain course. Shimmering mountain lakes adorn 12 holes, but water only occasionally comes into play.

Bald Mountain, at 6,300 yards, is known for its distinctive configuration of five par 5s and five par 3s. The 16th green was featured in the classic film Dirty Dancing. Designed by W.B. Lewis, a protégé of George Cobb, Bald Mountain’s traditional design focuses on playability from tee to green.

Rumbling Bald is home to Lake Lure vacation rental homes, condos, and studios, ideal for groups of all sizes. After your round, relax at Legends on the Lake, offering casual dining along the shores of Lake Lure.

With amenities like scenic boat tours, rentals, tennis, pickleball, a full-service spa, and hiking trails, there’s something for everyone. Families can enjoy the Trout Stream Pool and Lazy River, and Rumbling Bald is the perfect basecamp for exploring the beauty of western North Carolina and the Blue Ridge Mountains.
