Lake Lure is a beautiful Lake in Lake Lure, NC close to Chimney Rock, NC. This beautiful lake is a popular destination for many and is less than 45 minutes from Asheville, NC. The lake covers approximately 720 acres and has close to 27 miles of Shoreline. Incredible views of the Lake can be seen on top of Chimney Rock which is only 5 minutes away.
Lake Lure was created by the Morse Family starting in 1925. The Morse Family created the Mountain Power Company which constructed a dam on the Broad River. The lake was completed in 1927. It's interesting to note that the lake was not constructed for power but more for creating a paradise real estate area. The power generated from the lake is sold to Duke Power but is not what is energizing the town of Lake Lure with a population close to 1,200 residents. Lake Lure is a deep lake of 60 feet or more with the deepest being approximately 104 feet deep. A lot of people enjoy the lake for fishing. The lake has small mouth bass, white bass, catfish, yellow perch, sunfish, crappie, and some trout still remain. Another interesting fact is that the popular movie " Dirty Dancing" was filmed on Lake Lure.
I grew up going to this area on a regular basis. Rather if you are coming to swim in the lake or enjoy a boat ride - Lake Lure will not disappoint you. Make sure you hit Chimney Rock while visiting! Chimney Rock has a lot of great shops and restaurants. Lake Lure has some great restaurants also.
