About this cabin rental
Comfortable lake front log cabin studio loft on deep water cove on the largest lake in NC. It's located in Mooresville. This comfortable 850 square foot log cabin loft is nestled upstairs in the trees above a detached garage with a great view of Lake Norman, which can be enjoyed from the comforts of the loft or from the 28' screened in porch. You are not sharing the loft with the homeowner.
All of my properties are non-smoking, no pets.
VRBO sends out the address and check in instructions 2-3 days prior to your stay. I can't put the address in the description because it will be scrubbed.
Walk in the front door and head upstairs to your retreat. You do not share the cabin. The rental is one large open room above a detached garage (no one reads this so I add it again) with everything you need (the main house is next door). The only walls and doors are to the large bathroom and closet. I add this because I have had request for 6 adults which I can't in good conscience accept.
The cabin is a no smoking no pets rental. Smoking is fine outside the cabin.
This is a nice couples retreat, or couple with a couple of children. My brother and his wife, their two boys and two of the boys friends have stayed there, but that is stretching the limit of 'comfortable.' There is an additional fee of $20 per night per person over 4 people if your reservation is accepted. The additional charge will show up as an administrative fee on your invoice.
Bring your fishing gear and fish off the dock. Sorry I only provide the gear if I'm chartered out for fishing 15 years of broken and lost equipment and I finally learned. I'm a little slow but I finally get there.
Basically Boys and Girls if you can get your significant other in the car with a few clothes it is a great surprise destination. I don't do large parties. I add this because I get numerous requests for large birthday parties, weddings, receptions, family reunions and you name it I have probably been asked. I'm just not equipped for large crowds or even crowds above 6. If you want to rent the boat or have a small cook out for about 10 max I will try to accommodate you as long as everyone is leaving before bedtime. Thanks for understanding.
If you are coming looking for real estate and you don't have an agent yet I can refer you to one of a couple that I refer to. They are excellent and will respond to your needs. I have had at least 8 guests who have purchased on the lake. If you decide to use one of my referrals, sometimes depending on the location, we can look at the property by water. Let me know when you are making the reservations and I will connect you with an agent and you can start to narrow your search before you arrive.
VRBO sells trip and damage insurance which protects both the guest and the owner. If you can't get rental insurance through VRBO you can request it through me for 8% of your rental.
If you do not take advantage of the insurance then the cancellation policy will be adhered to. I have refunded my last guest who kept one of my properties blocked until the last minute and then wants me to refund their money. Trip insurance was created for that purpose.
Amenities Include:
- Kitchen furnished with granite counter-tops and black appliances, along with a coffee maker, pots pans, utensils, etc. All you need to bring is your food and shopping is close, within 3 miles of the loft.
- Living area is complete with a 46" flat screened TV and queen-sized futon for extra guests or children. Air mattress is also available.
- Large bathroom with tub/ shower, and washer/dryer. Sheets, bath towels, wash and hand towels, along with beach towels are provided.
- Large and small coolers for you to use.
- Large walk in closet.
- Wireless internet .
- Night time climb into the plush queen-sized Log Bed.
Rental includes:
- Dock privileges with power and a boat ramp close by, so you can bring your boat! The next door neighbors allow me to use their ramp as long as I am here. Their price is a 12 pack of Miller Lite.
-From previous requests, I now have a 23ft. Harris Cruiser Pontoon with a 115HP 4 stroke Mercury available to rent. $300/ day, or $65 / hour. Weekly $1750. Best price on the lake. Check it out, others are $350/ to $500/ half day on weekends and you have to go to them. This one is tied up at the dock waiting for you. Requires a $600 fully refundable cash deposit, cash for the day and signed rental agreement. Take it out full of gas and bring it back full of gas and in good condition and your $600 will be handed right back to you. Please request the boat with initial request for cabin rental in case there should be a maintenance issue I can inform you, or occasionally I get requests from non guests for rentals.
-Toys are included in the boat rental.
Or if you would prefer to make advanced arrangements I will Captain you out for $120 per hour gas included. I will take you fishing for the same price. Skiing or tubing $145 / hour.
- Take the boat for the week for $1750. This takes into account you may have a rainout day. I don't bill the pontoon through VRBO.
- Kayaks and Stand Up Paddle Boards are free if you take them down and put them back up. Please be careful not to break the fins on the paddle boards.
- Picnic shelter comes fully equipped with a gas and charcoal grills, ceiling fan, TV, swing and table and chairs. Hammock is available in the large open yard facing the lake.
During your stay you are free to lounge around swim or fish on the boat dock or on the pontoon boat. No kids at the helm to avoid pushing buttons and dead batteries. You are also welcome to ride along if you see the 'Captain' going out for a ride. I usually try to give you a little notice if know I'm going out.
In the summer when the tomatoes are ripe you can pick a fresh one to slice for a sandwich or a burger.
Laidback is here, where are you?
Come spend a little time with me and my threee knucklehead pups. Meet my golden retriever Beau and my two rescues Jangles and Bizkit. They are very entertaining and love having guests visit.

Mark & Buddy were the best VRBO hosts we have ever encountered! The cabin was a perfect landing spot for us as we investigated the area for a potential retirement location. The cabin has everything your need and has a calming, peaceful vibe! Thanks again, Mark!

The location and cabin were perfect on a quiet inlet. The boat ramp next door was great for launching our jet skis and the boat dock had ample room for docking. The cabin was very clean and perfect for the two of us. Mark and Buddy were perfect host for our long weekend getaway!!

My husband and I enjoyed staying at this property very much. The host, Mark, is incredibly hospitable. When we arrived, we realized that our car had a screw in it. Mark was kind enough with help my husband try to fix it. THANK YOU!
The property is exactly as advertised and sits right on Lake Norman. My husband and I enjoyed sitting on the screened in porch each night enjoying a glass or wine.
The space was the perfect size for my husband and I. It was very well stocked with pots, pans, utensils, plates, etc.--which is not always the case when you rent a property.
Everything was clean and tidy and we very much enjoyed our stay. Thank you for sharing it with us!

We had a wonderful time at Lake Norman. Place was beyond our expectation. Mark and his dog Buddy were an absolute plesaure to be around. We highly recommend and will be back in the future. Thank you for sharing your beautiful place. We wish we had more time there!

The stay was excellent. Scott was very helpful with check in and showing my son and I the lay of the land and water.
He was extremely responsive to questions and just an easy going overall nice person. The house was very clean and new. with all the proper amenities for a short or long stay. everything worked and the screened in porch overlooking the lake was a plus also.
We rented a boat from Scott and he took the time to make sure we understood the boats personality. He also pointed out land marks to follow as my son and I toured around Lake Norman so that we couldn't get lost. Scott also showed us the marina (Which is minutes away by car or water) to gas up and rent Jet Ski's.
Just an overall great experience! We will return.
One of my favorite parts about being there was getting to know Scott's Golden Retriever Buddy! The friendliest and most beautiful dog you can find. My son and I hoped he was out and about every time we returned to the house.

Gorgeous lakefront cabin. Well stocked with everything you could need. Mark, the owner, is absolutely the best. Laid back and available anytime you need him. His dog “Buddy” is an amazing rascal. Playful and full of energy. The boat was perfect and ran like a champ. Highly recommend this amazing cabin. We will be back!

This “one room” cabin exceeded my expectations. Very clean and well kept and furnished with everything a guest might need for a night or a week long stay. Great location with many amenities. The host was very friendly and although he lives next door totally respected my privacy and need to rest after long days fishing. His handsome golden, Buddy, was an added treat as he treated me every afternoon. Hope I can visit again!

Great! All was what i expected and more. The restaurant Eddies Seafood was the best place to eat with live entertainment. Fishing at the lake was slow but caught a few Bass and a catfish of arounf 5 pounds

Check in was a breeze- we got in early and the room was ready and waiting! Mark was so accommodating and friendly along with his dog Buddy. We felt right at home and ended up making a new friend! The cabin was immaculate, clean and very inviting. The lake view was amazing and we settled right in quickly forgetting about work and the hustle and bustle of our life. We will definitely be back and highly recommend booking with Mark.

5 0’clock somewhere was the perfect couples get away. Mark was a fantastic host ; always available, very informative about the area and allowed us the use of kayaks, paddle boards , floating devices and a pontoon boat ( for a fee).
The cabin was perfect for two , very clean, fully stocked kitchen , with a great screened porch to enjoy . Located on a quiet cove in a safe area of Lake Norman. Easy access to town close by for shopping or eating out .
We definitely enjoyed our stay and would love to visit again sometime . Thank you Mark and hope the new puppy Buddy is getting used to his new home!

This place is just cool! It's a terrific lakeside getaway to do, or not do, just about anything. Mark has the perfect balance of being a gracious host if you need anything, while also providing you space to enjoy the property. Have a great time, we sure did!

This was a no-hassle quick-turn trip to North Carolina. Having no knowledge of the area we took a chance on this lake property and were happy with every aspect of it. It's a self-contained upstairs unit with lake access and pontoon rental availability. The owner lives next door and unless you need him, he leaves you alone. His pups were a fun addition. I'd love to bring my mom here but the climb upstairs (it's entirely second floor) might be a bit much for her. There were plenty of very good restaurants in the area to choose from. We would more than likely return. Thanks for everything, Mark.
