Bigfoot Exists at The Village at Reflection Lake Nantahala! The Burger, That Is..

Leave a reply

After a day spent fishing, boating, swimming, hiking, mountain biking and rafting at Lake Nantahala, you’ll be ready to eat like Bigfoot! Anticipating hungry diners, the Lakes End Diner has come up with the perfect solution for the ravenous appetite worked up from recreation at The Village at Reflection Lake Nantahala.

When the day is done, head to the diner and try the Bigfoot Burger. Weighing  in at two-and-a-half pounds, this burger is made of five servings of hamburger pattie and comes with a nine-inch bun. It’s every bit as big as the plate it’s served on, too.

Usually, the Bigfoot Burger is a delicious meal when shared by five people. However, those who  have a ravenous appetite from soaking up the sun can try eating it on their own. For $14.99 you can have a stab at devouring this burger, fries and all its fixins. If conquered in under sixty minutes, the champion eater receives a “Tame the Beast” t-shirt and community-wide honor.

If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again. Come back for more attempts to eat the burger if you can’t finish it the first time, and make The Village at Reflection Lake Nantahala your vacation destination.

The community’s 13 exclusive North Carolina home sites are better than the burger anyway. Lake- and mountain-view sites in the community are priced from $94,900 and selling quickly.

Those who plan a trip before September 30 will enjoy  a $25 gas gift card, boat tour of the lake and complimentary lunch at the Lakes End Diner.

Want to Move to a “Green” Location? Consider Charlotte

1158957_green_houses aref featInvesting in energy-efficient products and green building not only protects the environment, but it protects your family as well. Buyers looking for a healthy, “green” location for their families should consider the purchase of Carolina real estate in Charlotte, N.C.

Recently, Charlotte was named as one of the top 25 cities with the most energy-efficient buildings that received the EPA’s ENERGY STAR certification in 2010. Among the facilities that are eligible to earn the ENERGY STAR label are K-12 schools, supermarkets, bank branches, financial centers, places of worship, hospitals, offices and retailers to name a few. Your family probably frequents these types of locations often, if not on a daily basis.

So, why is this important for your family? Did you know that nearly 20 percent of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions come from energy use in commercial buildings? However, ENERGY STAR certified buildings emit 35 percent less carbon dioxide and use 35 percent less energy than average buildings.

To qualify for the ENERGY STAR rating, a building must perform better than at least 75 percent of similar buildings nationwide, and be verified by a licensed professional engineer or a registered architect.

Tell us what you think: How important is energy efficiency to you?

There is a lot of talk about investing in real estate or renting out your real estate now due to the state of the housing market. Some people are looking into the opportunity to snatch up investment properties while housing prices and interest rates are low. Others need to move in order to follow a job, but they’re current mortgages are underwater. Rather than selling at a loss, they’re opting to hold on to the property and rent it out for a time.

The Equifax Personal Finance Blog has tips for you to remember before you make the leap into renting property. Real estate expert Ilyce Glink’s article, “Real Estate Investing: How to Be a Good Landlord,” offers the benefit of her own experiences renting out properties. She also gives a summary of suggestions offered by Robert Shemin, author of Secrets of a Millionaire Real Estate Investor.

  • Don’t expect to become friends with your tenants. Keep it a business relationship because friends may expect more leeway or special treatment – perhaps being late on the rent payment or requesting extras for the home.
  • Be very clear about expectations and policies.
  • Use your current good tenants to help find your next good tenants by enlisting their help.
  • Always run a credit check on potential renters.
