Fabulous house on a quaint little quiet cove in Lake Norman. The house was well-appointed with tons of amenities. Our kids loved the paddleboards, kayaks, and water guns and the parents loves the fenced yard and upstairs bunk rooms. We had a great stay!!

This is our third stay at License to Chill, which tells you something! We have loved every stay. The host is VERY responsive, and the place is beautiful and is on a peaceful cove. While there the power and internet went out due to a storm, and when the power came back on but the internet did not we contacted the host and Kerry was there within 15 minutes to help resolve the issue. Highly recommend staying there.

This property was perfect for our family. The family room and kitchen was large enough to accommodate us sitting down for dinner and watching TV in the evening. The water and dock were beautiful and they had everything we needed for our trip. Most important was the fact that they provided things that most don't such as shampoo, conditioner, coffee, tea, honey and basic staples. we would definately book again. It was just as described!

We rent on the lake each spring and this house was a crowd favorite. The host was extremely helpful with a few questions we had leading up to our trip and once we arrived everything was as described. The fenced in yard was perfect for our dogs and lots of memories were made in the large kitchen and on the cozy sun porch!

Very nice home with plenty of space to gather around the kitchen for a large family or group. The property is very nice and has plenty to do for all. Can’t wait to come back in the summer and really enjoy all of the outside activities.

This was our 3rd time renting a home on Lake Norman and this house was a favorite! We arrived to a clean, spacious, beautifully decorated house complete with welcome basket! The home has plenty of room (we had a party of 7 and 2 dogs) and all of the amenities you can imagine! Our most favorite room that was used endlessly was the screened in porch off the back - it was the perfect spot for family meals, games, afternoon reading, you name it. We also loved the fenced in yard which was level with the lake (a bonus for aging parents that can’t do many stairs!). We had a great time cooking meals together in the large kitchen stocked with everything you could need! It was also very nice to have two master bedrooms so my husband and I and my parents each had a king bed, bathroom, and sitting areas. The dock at this house great - very easy to get in and out of and on a great spot on the lake! 2 paddle boards and 2 kayaks were also fun for us to take out each morning! The communication with Linda was top notch - very responsive and welcoming! If you are considering this house, book it! You won’t be disappointed!

License to Chill was a perfect family gathering vacation home. We LOVED the screened-in porch -- we sat outside every night and even enjoyed a few naps on the cozy couch. The home was set up perfectly for 2 families. We loved the large gourmet kitchen and large family room. The home is located in a quiet cove, which is perfect for children playing in the lake or out on the paddle boards. We enjoyed having a boat at the property and spent most of the time on the gorgeous lake. The home was very well appointed and exceeded our expectations. The property manager was very responsive and a pleasure to communicate with.

This is our fifth summer renting on Lake Norman. This was the best house by far. Great location on the lake, easy docking of our boat, clean, well decorated, and all the amenities one could ask for. The owners really pamper their guests. Easy to communicate with the owners! It was a wonderful week at this house!

Even better than we wished!
My husband, daughter, son in law and three young grandsons chose to vacation at lake Norman. When looking for a Vrbo the beautiful screened porch, covered boat dock, and dog friendly home looked like a great choice. It was so much more!
The totally remodeled home offered beautiful interiors with so many small luxuries offered by the hosts like coffee stations in the kitchen and both masters , and soaps, shampoos and conditioners in each bathroom. Outdoors the yard was spacious and fenced; the dock was great for swimming , kayaking and paddle boarding ( 2 of each supplied as well as beach towels and life jackets); the “aqua arsenal” offered the little boys hours of water gun fights.; the fire pit gave us two nights of making s’mores with supplies offered by our hosts! We rented the brand new pontoon for three days of tubing on the lake which was fantastic family fun.
It was a wonderful week of family time in a beautiful place.

The property is very spacious, comfortable, inviting and feels like home. They thought of every thing you may need (high chair, pack n' play, offer brand new pontoon to rent, expansive kitchen), covering the big and small details. Decor is fresh, bright and comfortable and oh that porch is delightful! The owners are responsive, friendly and very easy to work with. Highly recommend for a family and friends celebration!

AMAZING!!
We were blown away by how beautiful this place is. Not only is it gorgeous on the inside, it sits right on the lake. There is a dock which has paddle boats and kayaks for you to use. There is a hot tub, fire pit, ping pong table, a room that has a ton a squirt guns!! That was a huge hit with my granddaughter. We will most definitely be back.

My wife and I stayed at this home for a week. Great house. Very well done inside and out. The yard is amazing and runs down to Lake Norman. The home is dog friendly and we appreciated that fact. Most everything you need is there for you. if you need a grocery store or restaurants, nothing is more than 30 minutes away. The home is very modern and conducive to a great weekend. Ping pong, corn hole and a great big, beautiful yard! We had a fantastic time and are already thinking of going back.

amazing lake stay!
We had a fabulous time staying at License to Chill. The house was beautiful and clean and spacious, with plenty of room to enjoy the large living room or eat inside or outside. We took advantage of the hot tub, kayaks and standup paddle boards, private dock, grill, and even the water gun arsenal. Checking in and out was no problem. Thanks to Linda for a great stay!

This home is just as beautiful as it looks!
The neighborhood is fantastic as well and we had no worries in the area. The manager communicated so well and we had an absolute blast, we spent a lot of time in the home and we were sad to leave.

Every last detail
The host has thought of every little thing. What a great place to stay! This was our second stay at this house, and we'll be back. Relaxing, beautiful views, and easy lake access for our 22 ft. tri-toon boat the owner allowed us to park at their dock. No loud lake traffic in this cove area. I only wish our stay lasted longer!

Great property! Lots of attention to detail. Check in/out process was super smooth and hosts were very kind to let us check in and our a bit early/late. The backyard was awesome with the hot tub and fire pit. Fenced yard was perfect since we had little kids with us and didn’t want to constantly stress about the lake. House was super clean and host was very responsive to a few questions I had while staying there. I would highly recommended this property!

A Place on the Lake
This place had all the bells and whistles. We wanted to meet up with some family that wanted to avoid plane changes because of covid and young children so this was our best choice. Although the weather was not the greatest, there was plenty to do. Our 7 year old learned to kayak. Ping pong was a hit. The house was clean and cozy. Plenty of space to find a quiet moment and also lots to do together from s'mores to the hot tub. The hosts were super attentive and we would make this our go to place if we ever go back.

This property was beautiful! Having my parents downsize this year, it was wonderful to have a place we could all still congregate as a family for Christmas. The house had plenty of room for us to all be comfortable while still feeling like we were all cozy and home for a visit. The owners did an amazing job of preparing for our visit, communicating and leaving us some extra goodies as a welcome. We would come back without question.

Excellent Property with amazing views
We spent our Thanksgiving week at this beautiful home. The home was beautifully decorated and everything we needed was available and more! We had a beautiful welcome basket with yummy snacks. The property owner was readily available for any questions we had. The kitchen was well equipped with everything to prepare large meals. We loved the access to lake, the views, abs the fenced in yard. The teenagers loved the hot tub! We highly recommend the property!

Exactly what we needed!
We needed a relaxing vacation, and this was it! Over the last 8 months my wife and I have lost two parents, we almost lost another to COVID, and the fourth parent is not doing well even now, so it has been a rough stretch for us, and we needed some time away as a family but in a place that was also close to our parents. This was it! My wife arrived at this house 15 minutes before I did. When I arrived, I was greeted with "We are NEVER leaving! I am so happy I could almost cry". The place turned out to be better than expected, and was exactly what we needed. Very well appointed, well stocked with everything needed and then some, beautiful views, relaxing location with Lake access (but not a bunch of lake traffic), and my son even caught a few fish from the dock, so the fishing is even good!

Perfect for a family vacation at the beach!
This house was beautiful and we had a wonderful family vacation here. The house is updated nicely, clean, and an all around great place to stay. The owners have put a lot of thought into what renters may need during their stay and there's so many nice touches. From the welcome basket that greets you when you check in (which was a breeze!) to the extra toiletries and coffee supplies in the bathrooms to the shed filled with water guns, they have thought of so many great things to put your stay "over the top." The property itself has a huge yard, which was fenced in and really nice for the dogs we brought along, and has a great deck with extra water toys like paddleboards and kayaks that our kids loved using. We had to communicate a few times with the owners and they always responded in a timely fashion and were very easy to work with. I can't say enough good things about the time we spent at this house. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a great Lake Norman getaway!

Wonderful stay!
Better than the pictures. Appreciated how well stocked and equipped this house is. It had everything. Touches we loved: marshmallow for the firepit (and roasting forks), kayaks and stand-up-paddle boards, complete kitchen supplies including condiments, spices, and every gadget you may want.
Nicely appointed. Freshly renovated. We were extremely comfortable (all 3 generations).
Thanks for sharing your house.
