. We enjoyed the used of their kayaks and paddle board, and the garage apartment was perfect. It was clean, the beds were incredibly comfortable, and the bathroom was huge! The grocery store is close by, we did some shopping in the towns nearby and had a wonderful time!

My family and I had an great stay. Everything was as advertised. The private beach and beachfront area was spectacular. We had so much fun with the kayaks and paddle board. The apartment is warm and invited and decorated like a lived in space and not like a hotel. This property is in a very quiet area away from anything touristy. We would stay again!

Our stay here was fantastic! The rental was extremely clean and well appointed. We had everything we needed our entire stay. The beach and dock area are great! Our two boys enjoyed many hours there fishing, swimming and paddle boarding. Sandra and Rex were great hosts, and checked on us to make sure everything was as expected. I would highly recommend this rental and look forward to returning in the future.

We stayed at Sandra's place at end of June.
We liked the sandy beach on the property, which is quite unique. Kids loved it, and we stayed a lot of time in the water and on the beach. The location is fairly quiet, far from the touristy places like Huntersville.
This is great for lower water traffic if you rent a boat from the nearby marina.
The owners are very nice people.
Will definitely recommend.

We had an amazing stay! Our hosts were the definition of Hospitable. The apartment was so clean and had everything we could possibly need. And the Beach and Boat Dock made for hours of water fun. Swimming, kayaking, Paddle boarding and some great fishing. We enjoyed our time by the fire pit making s'mores and talking. This was the getaway we needed and the accomodations met all our needs and then some. Great affordable getaway.

Sandra was an amazing host. We stayed in the garage apartment and it was perfect for out family. The apartment was probably the cleanest VRBO we have ever stayed in. She always replied promptly when I had a question for her and even brought us a blender when I asked if she had one in the other apartment. The beach area was really nice and the kids had fun diving off her dock. The kayaks were a great addition too. Thanks Sandra for making it so enjoyable.

Best of all time!
We had an amazing stay at Sandra and Rex’s beautifully maintained property. We stayed in the apartment over the garage. It was one of the cleanest rentals we’ve ever stayed in! It was also very homey and comfortable. The kitchen was perfect too, fully stocked for all our cooking needs! There are quite a few steps to get up to the apartment but we didn’t mind it! This property is a MUST if you have young kids. Our girls brought their snorkels and when we weren’t on the boat or jet ski we were all enjoying the lovely private beach, which was a huge plus! The floating dock was great and had ample space to put a 12 person tritoon on one side and jet ski on the other side. The first day of our arrival the kids were already asking if we could come back. Can’t wait to book our next stay!

Great vacation!
It was a great experience! Very relaxing private environment. Although the owners do live on the property they were very friendly, helpful and welcoming. The apartment was very clean and comfortable. We had everything we needed in the kitchen and in the bathroom it was very accomodating! The kayaks provided were amazing! We went kayaking everyday and there was NOT a lot of boat traffic so it was perfect! We also had a blast diving off the dock! Great stay over all! Thank you!

My husband, son and myself stayed in the downstairs apartment and thoroughly enjoyed every minute! The apartment was very clean and true to the pictures online. We took a day trip to Charlotte and attended the Nascar Hall of Fame and was able to find an indoor go-kart track for our 15 year old son on a rainy day. The beach was great and enjoyed the use of the kayaks. My husband and son enjoyed fishing from the dock and even did some night fishing. Sandra and Rex were out of town but was wonderful to talk to on the phone and very helpful. We hope to return and bring the entire family and rent both apartments.

We stayed for five days and loved every minute- the property is beautiful and very clean - the owners were extremely nice and a pleasure to talk with. The lake was a short walk from the garage apartment and was awesome to hang out on all day!
Would definitely come back and highly recommend.

The property is lovely with natural gardens and stonework, places to sit around a fire-pit and chairs near enough to the lake to dip your toes in the sand beach and cool off in the lake. The house is well furnished and so attractive. Plenty of everything you need and quality shows in all the accoutrements. Sandra and Rex are gracious and helpful when called on. It has been one of our favorite vacations and we thank them for all they do to be excellent hosts and keeping up this beautiful property!

Peaceful fall weekend on the water
The lower apartment is lovely with plenty of space and an amazing view of the lake. The kitchen is well stocked with good utensils - a good indicator that the owners care about their guests' comfort. Would definitely recommend.

One word summarizes my stay ... AMAZING! Sandra, the owner, is possibly the sweetest person I’ve ever met. She is so humble and kind. She was there to meet me on arrival, kept in touch with needed info, and checked on me daily. She returned my texts within minutes each time I had a question for her. My brother, sister and I stayed in the two bedroom above the garage. It is immaculately clean. The beds are so comfortable. It has a fully stocked kitchen with utensils, pots, pans, etc... I felt completely safe as well. The house is within minutes of restaurants and grocery stores; however the peace of the lake makes you feel far away from the stress of any city. You can completely trust anything Sandra says. I enjoyed sitting in the chairs in the early morning watching the sun rise over the lake. So so peaceful! If you stay here you will not be sorry. Thank you Sandra for your warm southern hospitality ❤️ I will be back!!! MA

Perfect getaway
I don't think I have ever stayed in a cleaner rental. We stayed in the 2-bdrm garage apartment, and the space was perfect for our family. The kitchen was well stocked, and beds and linens were comfy and cozy. The lake beach was shaded by trees most of the day, which helped keep us cool and sunburn-free. We loved the fire pit and all the beautiful trees. The hosts were friendly and accommodating. We will be back!

Socially Distant Honeymoon Retreat!
10/10 recommend!! I don't normally sit down and write reviews but this property was amazing. My wife and I got married in May during Covid and literally every plan we had changed. We wanted a quiet, peaceful getaway until we could have a big honeymoon. I'm so glad we found this property online. We stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment over the garage, but the apt under the house would have been just as good. Sandra and Rex were around and great to chat with while also giving us our privacy. Our guest home could not have been cleaner. We were very impressed, especially during these times! Everything we needed was at the home including an awesome gas grill. Make sure to watch the doe graze in the field behind the property...right off the back window or deck! Just down the hill is your private paradise with a private beach, comfy adirondack chairs, separate fire pit with seating, and a private dock. The two kayaks were also a big draw for us, wanting to socially distance, and we took those out 2-4 times a day. CS Rentals is 15 minutes away if you want to rent a jetski or boat (we did!) and we did check out Devaste winery. It was under 20 minutes away, great social distancing and sanitizing, delicous wine/beer and you can bring a picnic and maybe catch a live band. We grabbed to-go from Pellegrino's right by the winery and it was delicious. Every house on the lake seems to have steep yards and this yard was sloping but not steep by any means. I can't say enough positive things about our trip to this property. Please book this place if you're reading this!

Perfection!
The cleanest place we've stayed at on Lake Norman! We stayed in the garage apartment. Lots of stairs to get up there but that was okay for us. Perfect size for my husband and our six year old son! Dock was perfect as well! Easy parking for the trailer too. We have a 25' boat. Would love to bring more people with us next year and have them stay in the basement apartment. I peaked in the windows for it and it looks amazing too. Kind of far away from the city stuff but we didn't need it.

Amazing getaway
We absolutely loved our stay at this property and know for sure that we will be back. Sandra and Rex are excellent hosts and have a superb property away from it all. The downstairs apartment was immaculate and perfect for our family of four. We cooked our meals each evening and the kitchen was fully stocked with all the pans, pots, dishes and utensils we needed.
We enjoyed swimming from
The private beach, jumping off the dock, kyacking and roasting s’mores. The kids were thrilled at how many fish they were able to catch (and release) during our stay.
Perfect is really the best way to describe our little getaway. It was just what 2020 needed.

Perfect long weekend at the lake
We had 2 separate spaces (both ideal, clean and well-equipped) which enabled our immediate family to stay in the 2-bdr apartment over the garage while grandparents stayed in the main first level space. This was key during Covid-19; we hadn't felt comfortable sharing one space. Aside from that, the property itself was ideal with a great beach area with complimentary kayaks.

Idyllic
This property was perfect for what we were looking for. Gorgeous lakefront views, well maintained property, private beach where we could swim or launch our small sailboat. But some of the most fun we had was kayaking using the kayaks at the property. You had your own little slice of the lake all to yourself. The downstairs apartment itself was beautiful and perfect for us - a family with small kids. The owners were fantastic and accommodating and very accessible. We will be back.

Great!
We were looking for a quiet, relaxing weekend and we found it. The down stairs apartment was very clean, neat and just like the pictures. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook our meals. We sat outside under the covered patio, by the fire pit and on the beach. Cooked steaks on the grill and ate at the table under the patio.
Sandra was a friendly hostess. She had the answer to all the questions we had about the area. She treated us like family.
We can not say enough good things about our stay. We will be going back as soon as our scheduals will allow.

Gorgeous weather!
We enjoyed a wonderful few days on Lake Norman in the downstairs apartment that had everything we needed. Sandra and Rex have thought of everything and go the extra mile for their guests. The kayaks were a nice treat and the lake wasn’t very busy leading up to the 4th. Thanks!!
