Lake Lure Glamping
If you are really enjoying North Carolina and want to be a bit adventurous, you can head to Lake Lure (90 minutes from Charlotte) for some outdoorsy stuff. There is a brand new “glamping” location which will open at the beginning of October. I will note that Asheville is not far (45 minutes) and always must stop for Nick and Abbi when we are in that area.
