    In North Carolina there are many beautiful lakes, Lake Lure is one of them. Any time is a magnificent time at Lake Lure if you have a thing about the outdoors. Hickorynut Gap is in the neighborhood of Lake Lure and is undeniably a great place to take a look at. You'll need more than a day to explore everything Lake Lure has to offer, you can camp at Apple Valley Farm Motorcoach Resort. These mountains rock, just look at all the entertaining stuff to do in the  
   Blue Ridge Mountains. Bald Mountain Golf Course is a good golf course close by, and in case you don’t have a problem getting covered with water, you can always go whitewater paddling on Broad River. Lake Lure is a beautiful lake in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
During the summertime months highs here at Lake Lure reach the 80's. When the night sets in temperatures sink down into the 60's. For the period of the wintertime this place gets highs in the 40's, and
 
               night lows all through the wintertime for Lake Lure tend to be in the 20's. This lake is so wonderful. If you need a site to stay Apple Valley Villas is a perfect choice. There's so much to do here at Lake Lure that you need to camp here for a while, Hitching Post Campground is a wonderful place for that. Since you might be in a lake visiting mood you can always go to nearby Occoneechee Lake, and Rocky Broad River has a wonderful whitewater paddling spot nearby.
A large amount of precipitation falls at Lake Lure; through the month of May you get the most rain around here, and the driest month of the year is December. If you want a wonderful time in the great outdoors just come on up to the Blue Ridge Mountains. If you're interested in hydro structures, you can stop at Lake Lure Dam, and a quick spree to Buffalo Creek is positively a splendid idea. Lakes? Sure, Hickory Nut Upper Lake is close by, and the top of Buzzards Roost is easily distinguished from Lake Lure.
This lake is so wonderful. A glorious close by hotel is Fairways Of The Mountains (Vri).

Rocky Broad River
The Rocky Broad River- Class IV-V????  Are you kidding?  Not since I moved here in '85 has there even been much water there!  You can barely even float a boat on it unless it has rained for several days!  My 7yo daughter tubed it last year (at least when she wasn't bumping over the shallow rocks).  Even this year when we've tons on rain, a kayaker would have trouble picking a deep enough line through the shoals....

Lake Bonclarken
18 miles away
I hope whoever reads this Email knows Susan White Jones (Mrs. Reuben) She used to live in Spartanburg, SC and was a member of our ''Teena'' Club. We are now in our 70s. One of our members, Fran Bailey Kendrick has cancer and is very ill. She was allowed to go to her home yesterday with Hospice visiting her. If you could get this word to Susan, I know Fran would like to speak to her and her phone number is 864-582-8258. I tried to call Susan at home and finally remembered that she goes to Bonclarken every summer. My name is Jeanne Foster Clark jeannefclark@charter. Net

Please let me know if you can help me,
Susan and Fran.
Thank you so very much ...
