The Location

Three Weeks in the
Blue Ridge Mountains.

TASA sits between the historic town of Rutherfordton and the stunning lakefront community of Lake Lure — one of the most scenic areas in the Southeast. When class is over for the day, you're surrounded by incredible food, outdoor adventures, and small-town charm most people only dream about.

🏔️

Lake Lure

One of the most beautiful lakes in the Carolinas. Swimming, kayaking, paddleboarding, and boat tours right at your doorstep. The filming location for Dirty Dancing and Last of the Mohicans.

🥾

Hiking Trails

🍽️

Lured Market & Grill

A local favorite right on the lake. Fresh food, craft drinks, live music, and one of the best patios in the mountains. The kind of place you tell friends about.

The Night Owl — Knife Making

One of the coolest experiences in the area — hands-on knife making workshops at The Night Owl. Perfect for a free evening. Something you'll never forget.

🏛️

Historic Rutherfordton

Charming downtown with local shops, cafés, and the kind of Main Street America that makes you slow down and enjoy the moment. Rich in history and hospitality.

🎣

Fishing

World-class fishing on the Rocky Broad River and Lake Lure. Trout, bass, and bream. Bring your rod — you'll have time to use it.

⛳
