    The Mountains Lake is a lake worth visiting. The Mountains Lake is one of the lakes here in the Blue Ridge Mountains. This location is peerless, just explore all the amusing things to do in the vicinity of The Mountains Lake. Bald Mountain Golf Course is a fine golf course nearby; Lake Lure is a nearby lake that you could have a look at. This lake is so wonderful. There are some glorious whitewater spots on Rocky Broad River, and you obtain a wonderful sight  
   of Buzzards Roost from here.
And that's not all the things to do here in the Blue Ridge Mountains. A delightful location to camp here at The Mountains Lake is Lake Lure RV Park and Campground, and The Mountains Dam is a charming spot. Whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's for you then we recommend Broad River, and do take a look at Bald Mountain Lake, it's a lovely lake. The Mountains Lake gets lots of water; the month of May is the wettest
 
               with most of the rain, and December is when it's the driest.
A quick visit to Buffalo Creek right next door to The Mountains Lake is a good idea, and after a long day outdoors Fairway Villas at Rumbling Bald Resort is a brilliant site to spend a night or two. Summertime brings highs in the 80's to The Mountains Lake. Summer overnight lows fall down to the 60's. Highs through the wintertime are typically in the 40's while The Mountains Lake nighttime low temperatures during the winter are in the 20's. This lake is so wonderful.
So much cool stuff in the Blue Ridge Mountains, just astonishing. Camping at Apple Valley Farm Motorcoach Resort is always a good experience, and if you need a site to stay Apple Valley Villas is a perfect choice.

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....

Mountain Stream RV Park

Beautiful RV park. Feels like a taste of heaven. It is obvious that once you enter the park, owners Becky and Ron have a special mission for their campground. They roll out the red carpet for their guest. Once you turn into Mountain Stream, you become one of the family. Each camp site is filled with the beauty of a running trout stream. Visit MountainStream RV park. You won't regret it....

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 ...
