About this house rental
Dockside Destiny has everything you need for a great Lake Norman vacation. Like any lake trip it starts at the water. Enjoy floating in a great neighborhood cove just a few doors off the deepest water of the main lake near the 150 bridge but protected for your safety and enjoyment. Take the kayaks or stand-up paddleboard that are included with the house; splash on the 17'x6' floating mat; or rent a boat or jet skis from nearby marinas and dock them right at the house with easy access.
Enjoy the view from the dockside gazebo with built-in misting system for your comfort, and TV for entertainment.
As you move off the water the lower level greets you with a spacious furnished patio. Gather around the built-in fire pit for smores or throw some burgers on the Blackstone griddle and enjoy a beverage from the bar steps away in a large basement perfect for your group.
The basement includes a full set of family room furniture and large smart TV, a pool table, a throwback electronic gaming table, and two tables for gathering over food, drinks and games. The basement is also the location of a bedroom with two sets of bunk beds along with a new full bathroom with rainfall shower.
The remaining bedrooms are on the main floor, all with luxury foam mattresses. The sizable master includes a king size bed, deck access and a large picture window overlooking the water. The master bath includes a double sink, makeup vanity, whirlpool tub and dual head shower.
The other full bathroom is shared by two queen sized bedrooms – one with front yard view and vaulted ceiling and the other with water view and access to the screened in porch. All bedrooms on the main level include mounted smart TVs.
A functional office is located off the family room and doubles as sleeping space for two people with a day bed and roll-out trundle.
The remainder of the main level includes plenty of gathering space for your whole crew. A well-appointed gourmet kitchen with high end appliances is open to a breakfast area, family room, and beautiful dining room. You exit to an oversized deck with another gas grill, a large umbrella-covered table and additional bench seating, all with tranquil views of the water. Off the deck is a screened in porch with additional swing, love seats and ceiling fans -- a great spot for a peaceful morning coffee or catching up on a little work.

The house was great, we had 10 people of all ages! The house is well stocked! The dock and provided lake floats, toys, etc. was awesome. I asked our group if they want a lake or beach vacation next year, the answer was unanimous, lake house!! Can’t wait to return next year!

We had such a wonderful time on our vacation with our family and friends! The house was extraordinary clean and had all of the comforts of home, and then some. Kitchen was fully stocked with everything needed to make great meals including a gas grill and a Blackstone. The bedrooms are spacious and very comfortable. Drinking our morning coffee on the screened in porch was a favorite. The basement is large and full of games for all ages.
It’s a quiet cove (not a lot of traffic) and we were able to use the floating mat and swim at the dock. This house had so many added touches that made it feel like a home away from home. Julie was very responsive to any questions we had. This home is a must for your vacation at Lake Norman!

What an amazing time we had for our LKN getaway. The house is clean, well stocked and has room for everyone! The kids enjoyed having their own hangout space in the basement while the adults enjoyed some quiet time on the screened in porch. They also supply some fun family games that brought us all together, a very nice touch. The kitchen has everything you need to cook up a gourmet family meal, including a gas grill and Blackstone. The beds are super comfy and all the linens and towels feel luxurious. Julie was the perfect host even giving us a great recommendation on a boat rental (Saltshaker). Will definitely look to book this house again and highly recommend it!

The house was exactly what we needed for our extended family! It hit the needs for adults and kids with all the extras that make for a comfortable stay. The house was extremely clean and ready for us the minute we arrived. You can tell the owners put the time and thought into the upgrades to the property. It didn't feel like a rental at all.
The property is in a protected cove which made it perfect for taking advantage of the paddle board, kayaks and floating mat during our stay. We spent the majority of our time at the dock and the outside spaces around the house. We rented a boat for the last few days of our trip and the location / setup of the dock made it easy for novice boaters to dock when returning from our adventures in the nearby main channel.
We didn't need to contact the owners during our stay but they were responsive with any questions we had throughout the process. Excellent hosts and we would definitely consider returning for another trip!

The house was perfect for our lake trip with friends! Everything you possibly need for a comfortable stay is provided; it feels more like a home than just a rental property. The house also looks even better than the pictures!
The house is in a protected cove so if you are wanting to swim and float in the water right off the dock there aren't constant boats coming and going, but if you do rent a boat they are connected to a major outlet of the lake with plenty of room for water fun like tubing and skiing!
Our group has been going to lake Norman for many years for summer vacations and this house has been our favorite by far!
The owners were responsive with any questions we had during the trip. We couldn't have asked for a better stay. Will definitely be returning!

House beautiful inside and out, all the comforts of home and very relaxing. This was for a 3 week work project that we were in the area, home owners very easy to work with we had a small issue with water pressure and they were very fast to fix issue, no problems what so ever. highly recommend this property. We come to the area 3-4 times a year with needing 3 week stays for our techs, definitely will be staying here again if the property is available. Property won't disappoint you - right on the Lake.

This house was exactly as advertised. My family had an amazing time. Julie & Gary were super responsive to all questions prior to us coming the down. The house worked wonderfully for our family and the kids greatly enjoyed the lake with the splash pad and paddle boards. Would definitely stay here again!!

We had a blast partly because we picked such a great rental for our immediate family. Extended family stayed in other homes on the lake and everyone loved our rental the most with fantastic location on the lake, great water depth, wonderful dock, better parking, the extent of luxuries included in our rental, The grill, the Blackstone, the amount of seating, the screened porch, I could go on and on. These owners have truly thought of everything to make your stay the best vacation possible. Want to visit again as soon as we can!

Great place for a summer vacation
Our family really enjoyed our time at this lake house. Owners made it so easy with an outstanding guide to their home and the area. House was clean and we spent so much time fishing and swimming off the dock. A great quiet cove to have so much fun. There is something for all ages. I would highly recommend this rental and owners were outstanding to work with. Thanks Julie for always being so responsive!!!

Beautiful Lake Norman
We had a wonderful week at Lake Norman.
The house is beautifully furnished. We loved the swing on the screened in porch,
the large umbrella over the table on the upstairs deck, the bunk beds and the basement area for the kids, the Aqua lily pad. The lake was so clean. The owners were very pleasant to deal with and very quick to respond.

Comfortable bedrooms. Loved the master shower. Beautifully decorated house. Couldn’t ask for anything more.

We had such a wonderful extended weekend. The house is beautiful, modern and furnished well. It is close to the water. We caught a huge catfish off the dock, played volleyball in the yard, kept pool tournaments going, and really enjoyed our family time. The table with huge umbrella on the patio looking over the water was out favorite spot for dinner. I highly recommend this home and would stay here again.

Julie and Gary thank you for the use of your home. It was perfect for our family vacation. Everything was there, from the wonderful waterfront with shaded Gazebo, the floating mat, noodles, kayaks, to all the games inside. The lakefront is in a cove which made swimming very safe without high speed boat traffic.
Julie, the owner is highly responsive and an attentive VRBO owner. Julie was the best communicator. If I sent a message I got an immediate response, and I appreciated that. This place feels like a home, not a rental. The house was immaculate. The kitchen is very well stocked, anything we needed or wanted was there. Very comfortable beds, like new furniture and amenities, I can’t say enough good things.
We can’t wait to visit again one day.

I could go on for days about how great this vacation rental was. The House was perfect and Julie was a phenomenal host. Upon entering the home we were greeted with a personal card and a bottle of wine from the Camo family. The location and amenities kept 6 kids busy the entire 6 days. The house is practically Brand new from a renovation. We caught several fish from the dock and the kids loved the giant lily pad that was provided with the rental. Overall we had the best vacation we have ever been on and already have plans to rent this home again. Everything about this home, host, location, and amenities couldn't have been better.
Thank you Camo family for sharing your home with the Grays!
