About the host
Hosted by Frances Phillips
In 2016, a family membered purchased a cabin 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 located on the golf course and began a large interior renovation. The cabin is mostly new but we maintained and enhanced its original mountain cabin vibe. We love
our Happy Shack and hope our guests will too.
our Happy Shack and hope our guests will too.
Why they chose this property
Why this property? My top 4 reasons why you should choose The Happy Shack:
1 - It is a comfy cozy newly renovated mountain home located on an award winning 18-hole Golf Course which is inside the gates of a beautiful historic resort which built around the shores of Lake Lure. The location is perfect!
There is something for all ages to enjoy everyday! Play, swim, hike, play tennis, putt-putt, play basketball, utilize the restaurant & bar, play golf, watch golf, or just kick back and relax!
We believe that when guests spend their hard earned money for a vacation rental, it should be clean, comfortable, and well stocked with everything a family may need while on a short or week long vacation. We want you to feel at home and have everything required to enjoy your stay.
If you have any questions, please make an inquiry through Vrbo. It is our pleasure to answer any questions you may have.
