Age more vividly to life than Biltmore House. More
than 90 rooms, faithfully preserved and filled with thousands of original furnishings,

by family and friends to the downstairs domain of the domestic staff, the House presents a
detailed portrait of the great 19th-century country estate."

Lake Lure Community
and Real Estate. Lake Lure is approximately 1,500 acres, with around
twenty-seven miles of shoreline. National Geographic has called Lake Lure one of
the most beautiful man-made lakes in the world. Located in Western North
Carolina, Lake Lure sits in the heart of Hickory Nut Gorge. East of Asheville, the Rocky
Broad River tears its way in a series of rapids down through Hickory Nut Gap over a 600
foot waterfall in Chimney Rock. This crystal clear water flows through a valley shaped
roughly in the form of a Maltese cross to make Lake Lure.
