No jet-setting trips are necessary to create exceptional memories this Valentine’s Day. Enjoy the magic of the romantic winter holiday hidden away in the North Carolina mountains. Lake Lure is the home of the romantic Dirty Dancing film chronicling one of the most beloved couples of the age. With stunning landscapes and iconic film locations, you’ll find the perfect blend of adventure, relaxation, and romance with a trip to Rumbling Bald on Lake Lure.

Here’s the perfect checklist to make this romantic holiday your most special yet:

Enjoy a sunset stroll at our private beach

After you’re checked in and settled, take some time to take a walk on the beach. Reserved for our guests and members only, you’ll find an intimate and quiet setting to spend some time. And with a backdrop of mountain and lake views, the sunset is sure to astound you. Revel in the nature of Lake Lure as it creates the most magical aspects of time spent here.

Cozy up by the fireplace

Maybe after stealing some more time at the beach following the sunset for some star gazing, retreat to your rental home and indulge in a warm cup of tea or better yet some cocoa. Be on the lookout when booking your rental home to snag a selection with a fireplace. Cozy up by the fire with some blankets and fuzzy socks for an evening of relaxation.

Take a hike

Start your day off by exploring all the nature that is abundant at Rumbling Bald. Choose your level of activity by a simple walk around the main property or venture out to our private Buffalo Creek Park trailhead. The Buffalo Creek Park Trail System offers approximately five miles of hiking and mountain biking trails that will showcase all the beauty of the area.

Book a couple’s massage at the spa

What better way to unwind from a morning of exploration and exercise than to settle down for an afternoon of pampering. With a couple’s massage from the Wellness Center, you and your significant other will get to enjoy some relaxation together. Reserve your appointment in advance to ensure the only thing to worry about is your rejuvenation.

Experience an intimate dinner for two at Legends on the Lake

No reservations needed for this – an evening of great food and stellar views await you both at Legends on the Lake. With everything from the best pizza in town to masterful pasta creations and even ribeye grills, you’ll find the perfect dish to suit your style.

Play a round at Apple Valley Golf

Finish out your weekend away with a day of play at Apple Valley Golf Course. Light the spark of competition with a couple’s round of golf. Apple Valley offers challenging play with plenty of opportunity for competition and fun.
