Day 1: DIRTY DANCING.

Afternoon arrival at Lake Lure Inn in Western North Carolina, near Asheville. This luxury hotel built in 1927 serves as your headquarters for a two night stay. It is one of North Carolina’s landmark hotels, built when the waters of Lake Lure first began to fill, it has hosted many celebrities; from F. Scott Fitzgerald, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Emily Post and Calvin Coolidge, to Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey during the filming of “Dirty Dancing;” and now your group.

Once registered you enjoy a tour of the hotel. Recently restored to its full splendor, it is home to a unique collection of art and antiques. You also enjoy a Sunset Cruise where your skipper guides you past local attractions and landmarks including locations used in filming ‘Dirty Dancing.’  This is followed by dinner in the Veranda Restaurant located across the beach.
