I had a mix of experiences at Rumbling Bald Resort. The stunning scenery and family-friendly atmosphere were definite highlights, especially for relaxation and activities. However, the cleanliness and upkeep of certain accommodations left much to be desired, which was quite disappointing given the potential of the location. Dining was a hit or miss depending on where you ate, and overall, I felt that some services could use significant improvements.

Our stay at Fairway Villa #603 was less than ideal, overshadowed by an unpleasant smell and outdated furnishings. Although we enjoyed the scenic views and had a great experience with the wait staff at the restaurant, the lack of good dining options and poor maintenance significantly impacted our trip. Overall, while the location boasts stunning beauty, I wouldn't recommend this particular unit due to its issues.

Rooms

The room had a really bad smell, and the furniture was in dire need of cleaning and updating. The bathrooms felt stuck in the 1970s with low water pressure, and the carpets were unclean.

Rumbling Bald Resort is nestled in the serene NC mountains by Lake Lure, offering a relaxing atmosphere and a variety of family-friendly activities. While the resort itself has great amenities and beautiful surroundings, I found the rental property we stayed in to be poorly maintained and not what we expected from the description. Additionally, we encountered some issues with the house, such as a malfunctioning oven and a lack of basic supplies, which detracted from our experience.

Rumbling Bald Resort offers stunning views and a wide range of outdoor activities that make it a great getaway. The kitchens in the rentals are well-equipped, allowing for convenient meal prep. However, the dining experiences on-site were disappointing, with some meals being overpriced and not very flavorful. While the apartments were overall clean, some areas could use a bit more attention. It's a wonderful place to relax, but dining options could definitely improve.

Overall, there are some enjoyable aspects, but improvements are needed.
