Met Our Every Need
Our group of 8 older adult friends (3 couples and 2 singles) found that Forestway was just perfect for our needs. The kitchen was well stocked for us to prepare meals together and there was plenty of room around the dining table for good food and conversations. The beds and linens were lush and comfortable. Everything was clean and in good order and we all appreciated the stylish interior decorations that were just enough to make us feel at home. We were able to use the large TV in the lower level one evening to Zoom with 2 friends who could not be with us and enjoyed the sitting on the large deck during the warm afternoons. Although passes were available to use resort facilities, we enjoyed being together at the house and doing a couple excursions in the area, so never used the passes. Fran, our host, checked in with us to make sure all was good - and it was - it was a delightful time.

Great spot!
Super cute house, well decorated and stocked. Loved the Rumbling Bald resort. We played tennis, putt putt and used the driving range. House was great for multi family use. We will definitely be back once the lake is useable!

About the host

Hosted by Frances Phillips

Host profile image
In 2016, a family membered purchased a cabin home in Rumbling Bald Resort. We had never visited the area but immediately fell in love with Rumbling Bald Resort and the Lake Lure area of Western NC. In 2018, my husband and I purchased The Happy Shack (https://www.vrbo.com/1776620) and 2 years later a 2nd property - Forest Way (https://www.vrbo.com/27733842) . In 4 short years we have had the privilege to host more than 350 families in our family homes. We love being Vrbo Hosts and do all we can to assure each family has a wonderful stay. Forest Way is a new listing in 2022. We invite you to make your booking and promise to do all we can to assure you keep coming back.

Why they chose this property

We choose to purchase Forest Way in September of 2021. This house had the features to make it a great vacation rental property. A beautiful Year-round Mountain view and spacious 5 bedroom home were at the top of the list. The view never fades or goes away and 5 bedrooms makes everyone more comfortable. We then went to work updating the house and make it more comfortable for our guests stay. The home is only one-half mile to the lake and resort amenities which is very convenient. Walk or drive. It will not take you long to get there. It's simply an all day benefit to be close to the lake. Forest Way features 5 bedrooms, 7 beds, 3 full baths and two separate living areas to easily accommodate up to 12 guests during your stay. We added additional outdoor living spaces, including a fire pit, again for pleasant group gatherings. We enjoy spending time at Forest Way and want our guests to love it too!

5 Bedrooms; 7 Beds
