Stay at Summerscales, our brand new well-equipped home nestled on the private Bald Mountain Lake. Enjoy the serene lake view and watch the sunrise over the mountains from any room in the house. A unique home with plenty of custom features and a light, airy floor plan, Summerscales was designed and built with care as our home away from home. Go for a swim, paddle around the lake on a paddle board, take a boat out, go for a walk or just nap on the porch.
 Although Bald Mountain Lake feels secluded, it's ideally located within the Rumbling Bald Resort. All resort amenities are 15-minutes on foot, 5 minutes by bike or 2 minutes by car. The resort has two 18-hole golf courses , mini golf, golf cart rental, indoor and outdoor pools, hot tub, sauna, pickle ball courts, lighted tennis courts, basketball court, spa, a playground, a fitness room and trail, a bar and two restaurants.
THE HOUSE
Open the front door and you will enter the foyer and immediately notice the beams lining the ceiling throughout the main level. To the right, the main living room's vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and two-story fireplace with gas logs catches the eye, as does the view of the lake and mountains from the windows. To the left, the chef's kitchen features a large reclaimed wood kitchen island and a dining area also with views of the lake and mountains. Glass doors provide access to the back deck and side screened porch. One side of the porch houses another dining table and the other a large comfortable seating area. A convenient powder room sits next to the front door.
 A couple turns up the cable rail staircase take you to the landing overlooking the living room. Here there is a double daybed and a chest of drawers. Down the hall is the master bathroom with vaulted ceiling offering a double vanity, a large rain shower and a freestanding tub in front of the lake view window. Further down the hallway, the primary bedroom with vaulted ceiling and exposed beams offers a king size four poster bed, spacious closet, chair and storage chest all overlooking the lake.  
The lower level is reached by taking the stairs from the main level. Nine-foot ceilings, large windows and tall doors give this level an open feel. On the lower level you will find the “Fish Room” offering two twin beds and storage lockers. Next, the “Green Room” offers a queen-size bed, closet and chest of drawers for storage. These rooms share a large bathroom offering a tub and shower combination. At the other end of the hall is the "Map Room". This is the last bedroom which also serves as a recreation room. It offers a queen-size Murphy bed, sofa, TV, game table and access to a second rear deck with seating and storage for floats and stairs to the patio and dock. The map room has an en-suite shower room, a large cupboard and chest of drawers for storage. There is also a foldable double mattress stored in the closet which can be used in any room of the house for a 10th sleeper. Also on the lower level is a fully equipped laundry room.
Amenities include: Access to Rumbling Bald Resort including guest passes for up to 10, 2-story fireplace with gas logs, chef's kitchen, gas grill, board game table with many games, horseshoe pit, corn hole, 1 paddle board, 2 kayaks, 1 canoe, various floats and noodles, indoor and porch dining table and chairs, picnic table, high chair, pack and play, toy box, children's and adult's book selection, lake towels, blow dryers, soap, shampoo and conditioner, parking for up to 8 cars.
 The entire house is available for use with the exception of the storage shed, utility spaces and locked storage areas.
HURRICANE HELENE UPDATE
Our area was unexpectedly hit by Hurricane Helene in September of 2024. Fortunately, Summerscales sustained only minor damage and we have already made repairs. The debris that washed into Bald Mountain Lake from the mountains has been removed, the water has cleared and been tested and approved for swimming and water sports. Almost all regular resort amenities are available. In addition, the surrounding community provides a number of high quality restaurants, shops and outdoor activities. 
The main limits on the area include the inaccessibility of Lake Lure for swimming and water sports as removal of debris is ongoing. As well, Chimney Rock Village is under construction after suffering severe hurricane damage. While Asheville, a common day trip destination, also sustained hurricane damage to the River Arts District and Biltmore Village, many art studios still remain. There is still a lot of art of see in Asheville, the downtown area is intact and thriving with lots of art, bars and restaurants, and the Biltmore House and Grove Park Inn are still welcoming visitors. 
Despite Hurricane Helene, we believe guests will enjoy their time at Summerscales. We would not encourage people to come if we did not think it's still a lovely place to be. It is worth mentioning though, that in addition to just enjoying what Summerscales and the area has to offer, visiting will to help to support the local economy and efforts to rebuild an area that has suffered through a natural disaster.
Feel free to contact us with any questions.
