HOT TUB
Before entering the hot tub all clips from all four sides must be disengaged. Lift the side next to the steps first, and then use the metal bar to lift the remaining side until it rests on the far side of the tub. On the panel you can start the jets by pressing the “1” button once for low, and again for high. You can also engage secondary jets by pressing the “2” button. Please close and engage all clips after use to prevent wind from opening.
Glass of any type is not permitted in the hottub area. Users of the hottub assume all liability. Please read the notice above the electrical box before use of the hot tub.

WHAT TO DO IN A POWER OUTAGE
Don’t panic! Duke Progress will get the power back on as soon as they can. There is a flashlight and extra batteries located in the upper cabinet to the right of the sink.
The house uses a well to provide water, which requires electricity for the pump to function. In the event of a power outage, there is water provided in the pantry.
WASHER/DRYER
The laundry room is located in the kitchen. We’ve left a few laundry pods above the washer in case you would like to wash a load while you are here.
WHAT IS AROUND THE HOUSE?
One of the most beautiful man-made lakes in the country, Lake Lure is nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina. Located about 27 miles from Asheville, Lake Lure sits in the Hickory Nut Gorge, surrounded by lush mountain tops and sheer granite cliffs. Look up to see the famous Chimney Rock. From the top of Chimney Rock, there are spectacular views of the lake and gorge. Make sure to visit the beach during your stay!
