The house was adorable unique and the host was extremely accommodating. Would stay again

First, the “lake views” that were referenced in

We used this as an over flow house for a family vacation and it was perfect for our needs. Will for sure book this again !!

The house was decent. I was drastically overcharged on my departure for things that where already damaged upon my arrival. I was charged $400 for a soap dispenser that was broken when we came, because it didn’t have any soap in it from the beginning. We where charged for trash that wasn’t taken to the curb when it plainly states that if your at the house on Tuesday to take up to the curb. We checked out on Monday. It stated that all trash has to be in trashcan, which they only provided 1 of. I was also charged for a scratch on a sofa that was obviously scratched by whomever put it in the house. Also I was charged for a shower head that was loose from the wall in the downstairs bathroom before we ever got there. Actually the shower wasn’t loose from the wall it was the couching that wasn’t properly done that came loose probably just due to the steam from the shower. They have a nice home at this location, I just feel that the owner is money hungry & wants to charge the renters for things they needed to fix in the first place. Be careful & make sure to take photos of every errand of this home you plan on occupying if you rent from them & your card should be safe upon your departure.

My family and I rented this house for a fun stay at Lake Norman and overall we enjoyed our stay here but there were a few things that I would say were lacking, which was a total bummer given all the pros that this location and house have to offer. Pros: - the location of the house is perfect - the neighborhood is adorable. - the upstairs part of the house is lovely with beautiful wood ceilings and floors, a nice big kitchen sink, and a master bathroom that is just awesome - there is a laundry room with a working washer and dryer - Roku TV in living room - the house stays cool and was comfortable for the times we were there and while sleeping Cons: - the downstairs looks like maybe it hasn't yet been remodeled as the bathroom looked older and the two bedrooms were pretty sparse-feeling with just beds in the rooms - be sure to bring or buy your own laundry detergents, coffee creamers, and other basics as there are none provided (there was ground coffee and sugar available) - we actually did not end up using one of the bedrooms (my mom ended up sleeping in the same room with my kids) because all it had in it was a bed and about 8 huge bug traps lining the walls (there were no other bug traps anywhere in the house), so we left it empty for fear of being mauled by whatever bugs that many traps were left for - There was not much in the way of towels, kitchen sponges, or paper towels. All the towels were older-looking towels and instead of hand towels there were a bunch of old wash cloths that we used because we hadn't thought to pack towels for our stay. There was one roll of paper towels that we went through pretty quickly given the lack of cloth towels so we had to run to the store to buy more. I found a couple of old dish sponges under the sink but we did not use them to clean dishes as they looked like they were more for scrubbing sinks and countertops. - the pots and pans are very old and not great for cooking with, so we ended up eating out mostly - there is no barbecue outside - no deck or lawn furniture to use - there was a fire pit, but there was not any wood to use except a couple old termite-eaten logs that would not light, but the lack of chairs made it difficult to enjoy a fire pit anyway. Mostly minor issues, albeit surprising how much they affected our enjoyment of this place. Some new towels and other home basics would pretty much solve the problem and make such a beautiful home more welcoming.

Poorly stocked kitchen/cooking equipment, no deck or patio furniture to sit outside, all the wooden deck needs repair and steps slippery when wet. Great room sofa uncomfortable. Not enough towels. Bedrooms on lower level cold and sparsely furnished. The neighborhood was a gem!

This is our 5th rental with VRBO and we were lucky to get it on short notice due to a problem with our first choice. The house was clean and as pictured, but barren- minimal furniture, pictures, only one television, no K-cup coffee maker, chairs to sit outside, nightstands next to beds, a dresser to put things on. It appears to be a new listing-our recommendation to owner would be to add more “comforts” to make it more of a vacation rental - a notebook with tv instructions, codes, restaurant recommendations, area information would be nice. At the very least, there needs to be another TV- 3 bedrooms and the ONLY television was in the living room.

The property is unique in the best way, is beautifully decorated, and has plenty of space. The location is great - we loved the lake view from the porch. We stayed for almost 2 weeks and it suited us well. For a 3 bedroom house, there could have been more plates, silverware, etc., but I believe that is more because the listing is newer and maybe not fully stocked yet. It would also be helpful to have instructions for the Nest and the fireplace. Again, easily fixable. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us!!
