This newly constructed lake property is the perfect getaway if you are looking to enjoy a quiet/relaxing stay while being close to all things lake related, grocery store, and restaurants.
We offer a 90 minute sunset cruise, weather permitting, for all our guests (8 people max) with a complimentary bottle of wine as well as chilled bottled soda and water.. The rate is 150.00 and is paid outside of VRBO.

On the main floor, there are 2 guest rooms that each feature a queen bed, night stands, dresser, and ceiling fan. 1 of the guestrooms has a door directly out to the back lanai.
The main bathroom is located off the hallway of the main living space between both bedrooms. It has a tub/shower with a shampoo/conditioner/body wash dispenser and a 48" vanity. Towels, washcloths, bath mat and hand towel supplied.

Wonderful home. New, clean and great location. The house was very comfortable and the covered patio with tv was a great spot to watch the Olympics on a rainy day. We enjoyed the use of the kayaks and dock. It was too hot to use the fire pit but it is a nice feature. Appreciated the flowers and cookies. So sweet. Definitely recommend this house.

This home was perfect! From every detail, to the location, the cost, quality of workmanship, comfortability, having everything we needed for our stay, and more, to the owners, Jackie and Marcus and the personal touches from greeting you and their hospitality and their neighbor, Richie, and the delicious cookies- I can’t say enough! We have stayed in a lot of places and this one by far topped them all!

Normally we stay at my parents’ nearby lake house, but a huge family reunion meant we needed more beds than were available. This house was a perfect, close-by spot for two adult couples and two teenagers. The house is new and beautifully maintained. It has all the amenities you could want— beach towels, fire pit, outdoor TV on a shaded patio, kayaks, thoroughly stocked kitchen, comfy beds, and modern, well-equipped bathrooms. Communication with the owner was easy, and he was flexible and super communicative. Met us at the house for check-in and a walk through, and left us with all the information we needed— WiFi login info, check-out instructions, and tips for appliances were posted around the house in convenient locations. The house is not on the water, but has easy access via a neighbor’s dock, and the peekaboo views from several spots in the house (and wider views from outside) make you feel like you are right on the lake. We love this part of Lake Norman, and this is a wonderful house for enjoying it. We will definitely rent this home again when the family house is overflowing. Thanks for a great stay!

Upon check-in, we were welcomed personally into the home, toured the property, and enjoyed the freshly baked cookies. The house is stunning! The hosts thought of everything, including providing soap and shampoo in the showers. The peacefulness of the area spoiled us. My sister and I enjoyed the neighbor's dock for sunbathing every day. Kayaks were a big hit with the men and boys of the group. We will be back!

This property is great! Built about 1 1/2 years ago, this home has everything you could need and then some! Owners are great and the location is beautiful. Best part is the tv on the patio!

Newly built home with all the amenities you could ask for. Quiet, relaxing space with plenty of room for our family. Back porch view of yhe lake is better than the pictures! Tucked away, but not out of the way from stores, restaurants. Proporty Managers could not have been nicer! We had a fabulous time, highly recommend!

We absolutely loved our stay. This house was impeccable and Jackie has the best taste. She didn’t miss a thing in the house and the view to the lake was amazing. We loved sitting on the back patio’s with a fire and a movie at night. It was so relaxing. The girls are already talking about coming back next year. I highly recommend.

Very clean and sturdy new build. Hosts were pleasant, available, and private owners of the home. This is not one of those filthy rental properties owned by a group or real estate agency.
Would definitely consider staying again.

A beautiful super clean and newly remodeled home with a view of Lake Norman. The kitchen has everything you would need and more. We really enjoyed the outdoor fireplace as it was cool in November. The owners provided all soaps for bath and kitchen, paper products, wood for the fireplace etc.. We were greeted with chocolate chip cookies, fresh pastries, and fresh eggs from the farm. The home is close to the state park which we visited twice for hiking. Plenty of shopping nearby. Would definitely recommend for a relaxing time away!

This home has everything you could possibly need for a wonderful lake vacation. The home was just built this year and you can tell. It's gorgeously decorated, has a great location and view on the lake, is in a great neighborhood and is basically a ranch with a bonus room upstairs (so those of us who want to avoid too many stairs are in luck!). The owners are fantastic and respond quickly should you have any questions. We would definitely rent this house again should we be in the area.

We came to stay for a family wedding and everything was perfect. This weekend was special to us because usually we are traveling with 4 little boys that are very active. Instead we got to sit on the Lanai for many hours with my parents and brother/sister in law, shared many laughs and memories. We were supplied with ample amount of wood and the outdoor furniture was so comfortable. The house was perfectly set up with quality beds, pillows and linens. We felt so at home while we stayed. Thank you Marcus and Jackie for creating this beautiful place to stay!

Marcus & Jackie have mastered the art of hospitality! We've been renting vacation homes for over 30 years and they go way beyond what is expected of hosts to provide an exceptional stay. The attention to detail exceeds expectations. Their beautifully decorated lake house is new and perfect in every way. They provide quality linens and towels in addition to comfortable beds and furniture. The location is close to grocery stores, restaurants and parks with walking trails. The outdoor lanai with the fireplace was a great place to enjoy the lake view, read and watch TV. We enjoyed all the amenities and would highly recommend this property for a relaxing vacation. Thank you for sharing this special home! We made great memories and enjoyed meeting both of you and Richie too!

Our family vacation over the Labor Day weekend from Thursday to Thursday was a wonderful stay on the lake with access to four kayaks and a one day rental of the owners pontoon boat. The only negative was the oppressive heat in the mid 90's and humidity, something out of the control of the owners Markus and Jackie. Both made our stay a most enjoyable one for our family of six adults, two children and two 10 month old twin boys.
My wife and I arrived first and were met by the owners who welcomed us and showed us everything we needed to know about their new rental home. Jackie designed the house and did the interior decorating and Markus built the house. The three bedroom, two and half baths and huge upstairs TV/Ping Pong room with a large couch and trundle bed fit our needs perfectly. The open house layout, outside porch and large fire pit area, was perfect for morning coffee and evening s'mores.
The owners boat rental was great for exploring and enjoying the lake. Markus met us with the boat at the house dock and explained all safety and boat features. He was thorough and told us the full tank of gas would last all day, which it did. We all had a wonderful day on Lake Norman and I fully endorse doing this either for a half or full day. It was well worth the added expense.
I fully recommend this rental and would definitely rent again. 5 stars all around! Great job Markus and Jackie!

The house was great. Located in a quiet neighborhood on a quiet lake finger. A relaxing getaway with all amenities needed. Clean, cozy, and comfortable. Conveniently located to necessities and close enough to fun things in the area. The dock was great for the boat rental. We truly enjoyed all aspects of the week.

Beautiful and comfortable home. Many well thought out and quality details: fans, bedding, very good mattresses, comfortable furniture, corn hole, kayaks and stocked kitchen. Great owners and communication. Water access for swimming is not great but bring some tubes or rent a boat.

We have been renting properties for years all over the place. This property was the nicest property we have ever stayed out. The owners were very helpful. We were there just to relax. We went kayaking and hiking mostly but it was a great place to read and relax.
