This
road follows the southern edge of Lake Lure in Rutherford
County, NC. It provides views of the lake and surrounding
mountains if you're brave enough to take you eyes off
the road.
Note:
This road is curvy and not for beginners. Second gear
is too fast for some turns. Also law enforcement in the
area is notorious for writing speeding and left of center
citations.

There
is not much to do along the road but Lake Lure and Chimney

lake tours, restaurants, motels, bars, etc. Chimney Rock
has hiking, shopping, restaurants, etc. Both of these areas
are filled with tourists when the weather is nice so expect
traffic.
