The Flowering Bridge is a 12 minute drive from A Touch of Luxury Cabin in Mill Spring/Lake Lure. It is located in the same area as Morse Park, the Lake Lure Welcome Center, the Lake Lure Tour Boat rides, and the Beach at Lake Lure. This is the perfect free activity if you arrive in the area early, and are waiting to check into the cabin. Or maybe you have an extra half hour before your tour boat departs. The bridge crosses the Rocky Broad River and links Lake Lure to Chimney Rock Village. It was initially completed in 1925, and was used by vehicles up until 2011. A new bridge was built to replace it, and the original bridge was given to the Town of Lake Lure. Community volunteers turned it into the beauty it is today, and volunteers continue to maintain it.

Lake Lure Flowering Bridge

Officially dedicated Oct. 19, 2013, the Lake Lure Flowering Bridge blooms on the historic 1925 Rocky Broad River bridge in Lake Lure, NC. When the bridge was closed to traffic in 2011, the Friends of the Lake Lure Flowering Bridge came together to create gardens on the 155 feet of the bridge and along a pathway at both ends of the three-arch span itself.
