Highly Recommend

I recently got married at Rumbling Bald on Lake Lure. It was the most amazing weekend ever. They welcomed us with our name on the announcement board, greeted us with welcome drinks, took our decorations upon arrival and did all the work for us. We had a delicious dinner at Legends the evening before the wedding, the bridal and groom suites were perfect for our preparations and lunch prior to the wedding, and the pier was just beautiful to get married on and our wedding dinner/reception at Gardens was perfect overlooking the grounds. The weekend could not have been any nicer from the very friendly staff, the beautiful decorations, the delicious food at every meal and all the amenities at the resort for our guests and us to use following the wedding festivities. I could go on and on, but overall, 10 stars and highly recommend this establishment for your event needs. They will accommodate whatever your visions are.

Stunning Venue

We got married in August 2023 at Rumbling Bald Resort and every part of the weekend was so magical. The venue coordinator Jessica is the most amazing woman, she works so incredibly hard, is so kind, and really makes the experience start to finish so wonderful. She really moved mountains and made our dream wedding happen. The venue speaks for itself, it's such a beautiful backdrop for a wedding, and a great place for friends and family to travel to. The staff was amazing, everyone was so helpful and always had smiles on their faces. Highly recommend Rumbling Bald as a venue for any special event, or just a lovely getaway.

Excellent wedding venue

We had a wonderful experience with Rumbling Bald! Working with Paula made things seem so easy, and we greatly appreciated her insights. We had an intimate wedding with family, with less than 50 guests, and she knew all the right suggestions for us to make things perfect. Unfortunately, Covid has led to some changes at the venue, including the closure of the restaurant at the beginning of the week, but if those staying nearby like our family did plan ahead and make most meals “at home,” things will be just fine. The golf courses are beautiful!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
