The house was stocked with everything we needed and more, towels, kayaks, paddle boards, the large projector tv was great for movies and games.
4.9
Great family vacation. Lots of activities provided within the house. The lake was beautiful and we caught more than our fair share of fish! The owners were very thoughtful with several hospitality extras!
4.9
Our experience and communication with the owners was exceptional. The house was clean and organized and had everything someone would need in a rental property. We had a great experience and would highly recommend this property.
4.9
It was a very pleasant and relaxing trip. Our family have decided to make this a yearly trip since the passing of my mom.
Thanks for hosting.
4.9
The house was beautiful and perfect for our family gathering. We came from both coasts and Germany and stayed for three nights. Travel by road and air was convenient, the house was immaculate, and the location was serene. We highly recommend this property.

So the place is even more beautiful than the pictures communicate. it's also on a stunningly beautiful piece of property. Let's get the stairs out of the way to begin with, as they've been much talked about: Anyone with a reasonable level of fitness is going to manage them just fine; if you have folks with canes or walkers you'll need a different space. They were not a problem for anyone in our family (7 of us age 20 - 57). The 2 kitchens made cooking our Thanksgiving meal an absolute pleasure. The abundance of board games and other games (like shuffleboard, cards, foosball and darts) kept our kids entertained throughout the entire stay! Communication from the owner was best in class! The beds were supremely comfortable. The bathrooms are immaculate and the master bath is a study in luxury. Truly a chef's kitchen with roaster pans, soup pots, every size frying pan, wok, appliances, platters, wine and martini glasses, even copper mugs for moscow mules. A whole set of plastic dishwear for littles. Great neighborhood. Thirteen minutes from an awesome grocery store (which was shocking given how remote and secluded the property feels!) Great back deck where we all stood and talked and watched the stars one night. So beautiful. Pristine laundry room with full size machines. Sadly the lake was unusually low (drought) during our visit, so we did not get to take the kayaks out, but we're planning to come back in the summer. Perfect family memory-making space. Book it!!! :)

My 6 friends and I had the absolute best time here. We spent a Thursday-Sunday here and enjoyed every second of it. Dana is an amazing host with great communication and great instruction on check in and check out process. We enjoyed our nights by the fire and just hanging out in the beautiful backyard! We woke up every morning well rested in the super comfy beds. If I’m ever in the area again I will be staying here!

The pictures of this place certainly don't fully convey the beauty of this house - especially the shared areas. The owners had certainly focused on ensuring there were plenty of activities supported no matter the interest of each individual: Darts, video games, shuffleboard, foosball, board games (the redneck one is great), books, kayaks, paddle boards, and the list goes on.
On the practical side, there wasn't anything they didn't have covered when we arrived. Coffee makers - both types, crock pots, openers, toaster, cookware: all the stuff that 2 full kitchens would hold. Garbage bags, laundry detergent, starter paper towels, hand soap and other nice little personal touches like some light snacks & water also provided.
We had a family of 12 with a couple of people with some mobility challenges. Although the steep incline that this house is built on absolutely makes it the scenic environment it is, we did need to setup a couple of chairs along the pathway down to the dock in particular to allow those individuals to take a break. It's a little steeper than any pictures will show. The parking area also sits above the house - roughly level with the roof line, then a bit of a decent. That one is slightly easier with the wide steps and not as long of a distance. On the other hand, several us living in flat land areas loved the workout. The driveway is a bit narrow with that same type of drop. Picturesque
Easy check in with programmed lock and plenty of instructions.
4.9
We had a wonderful experience. The home was beautiful and well located. Tucked away in cove that made it feel very secluded and pristine. The family and I have agreed we need to this annually.
4.9
The home was perfect for multiple families! It was a great location on a quiet channel on Lake Norman. We enjoyed the kayaks, paddle boards, boat dock for our boat rental and the games inside the home made for fun evenings with family and friends!
4.9
Home was amazing with plenty of room and fun for our entire family. Everything you needed was there and labeled/easy to find. Communication with owners was great and they provided lots of detailed instructions for their property. The owners did a great job of setting up their home for our arrival and helping us to feel welcome. Our kids loved all of the game options downstairs as well.
My only advice is that this property has a very steep/quirky driveway as well as stairs that lead down to the home and more stairs that lead to the lake. This home is not for anyone that has mobility issues. The stairs were a beast for our family-but we probably lost several pounds and toned our legs during our stay! 😂
4.9
This was a beautiful; house in a great location. The owners were amazing. I would recommend for a family or family reunion.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lake house on Lake Norman. Spent a week there, quiet and cool with the surrounding trees. The game room with indoor games and the projection screen were great to have!

We had a wonderful long weekend!! The house was beautiful and so clean!! It had everything we need to cook our meals and spend time on the water! We will definitely book again if we come to the area again!!

Awesome home with great views..

The property is even more beautiful in person than in the pictures! The house was fully equipped with everything we needed for a perfect vacation. But what really set this property apart was the host's hospitality. They were incredibly friendly, attentive, and responsive throughout our stay, always making sure that we had everything we needed to enjoy our trip to the fullest. Everyone had a wonderful time and I can't wait to stay here again!
4.9
Friends and I have rented multiple houses over the years and this one was great. So many small details that you often struggle with other rentals. Everything just worked... internet was great for a few of us to work, beds were comfortable, plenty of linens, small touches that really separated this house from others. The owners truly wanted to make this a great stay for us and they succeeded. Thank you for an excellent stay!
4.9
This was such a perfect, gorgeous, clean, fun, and very accommodating house that will exceed all of your vacation needs. Our group spent the weekend here to attend a close-by wedding, but we were also celebrating a birthday and the New Year that weekend, so although it was a fun weekend, it was also very hectic. Dana and Wayne made the entire process - from booking, to checking in, to checking out - so incredibly easy. Being hosted by them was truly a breath of fresh air.
The house is even more beautiful in person and the view of the lake can't be justified by photos. It's large enough to give visitors the space that they need but also has very welcoming & cozy common spaces for gathering, in addition to the numerous games & activities offered.
If you're reading this and you're the person booking this house for your group, you NEED to call dibs on the king bed and the stone shower with heated lamps. Book it now!

It was very nice an secluded the house was very clean, it had all things to accommodate the whole family we really enjoyed this property
4.9
My family had an great experience at this home on Lake Norman. We decided to gather the family for a destination Thanksgiving and this home provided everything we needed and more. The kitchen provided a full range of cooking and baking for the family. The downstairs entertainment room was perfect for the teenagers and family time. We did not use the lake, but the home offers recreational toys for the dock and water. The driveway and stairs were intimidating for some, as it is steep and awkward. On the top floor, the railing for the stairs conducive for toddlers. The home was in immaculate condition and the owner responded quickly to all of our questions. I highly suggest this property.
4.9
The view was awesome. Home was not adequately cleaned. Downstairs bathtub was not cleaned. The ad listed a two-car garage, but the instructions said not to park in the garage. The fireplaces were inoperable, and the supply of dishtowels and bath towels were insufficient.
4.9
We had a wonderful weekend staying in this gorgeous and comfortable home. We easily fit 3 families for a total of 6 adults and 5 kids. Each family had their own bathroom and each adult couple had their own bedroom with a king or queen bed. We loved using the kayaks, stand up paddle board, PacMan arcade game, fire pit, grill, and well-appointed kitchen. The layout of the home was great—kiddos spent a lot of time playing on the lower level while grownups chatted and relaxed on the main floor. One word of caution: The steep driveway and the many steps from the driveway to the front door and from the house to the lake (mentioned by others in their reviews) are no joke.
4.9
We so enjoyed our stay! House had everything we needed! Lots of space. Loved the video game / shuffle board and darts. Comfy beds. Plenty of towels.
It is a trek from the street to the house but if you plan on unloading and staying it’s all good! There is a full time renter on the grounds but we didn’t see them the whole weekend.
Would definitely stay here again!

The property was just amazing. Words can not express how I felt when I first walked in because the pictures did not do the house any justice. The house was in immaculate condition. It was very spacious where we could all be upstairs, downstairs, or outside. We enjoyed the dining area where we were all able to sit at the table and have dinner and just enjoy each other and conversation. All supplies that you needed to cook were in the kitchen and if you wanted something specifically, there was a grocery story near by. Downstairs was a bit hit with the projector screen and games for us all to enjoy. We felt like we were kids again playing Ms. Pac-man and playing games against each other. Outside at the fire pit is where we spent time telling stories, laughing and eating smores. The area was well lit and had plenty of wood to burn. The walk to the dock was amazing. Some of us sat on the dock and just watched the water while we talked. My family said this is the place to be and we will come back again and tell our friends about the place. Again, I can't get over how neat and clean the place was when we arrived.

The owner Dana is awesome. She reaches out to us and discuss the property to make sure it was a fit for us. She was extremely supportive and attentive. The driveway we thought was fun. It a little step but a Prius handled it with ease. The house was amazing. Spotless, well laid out, every amenity you can think of. The beds were super comfortable, the bathrooms clean and huge! The kitchen on the main floor had more than you need, from a fully stocked spice rack to zip lock baggies! The snacks, and little thing you find around the house at every corner was unbelievable thoughtful. Now to the down stairs! Family room/ main cave dream land. We spend the evening watching football in the theater area with family and friends. The down stairs has everything you could need to just live down there. Full kitchen, huge bathrooms, large bedrooms. Due to it rained and we had a busy schedule we didn’t get to spend anytime at the dock but, it is well maintained, the yard is well maintained with a beautiful fire pit.
This house is at the top of our list to stay at again and again.

My family recently stayed at the property and it was amazing! The owners were very accommodating, the house was amazing, and the lake was perfect! Looking forward to booking again!
4.9
We had a wonderful time on our vacation. The house is filled with tons of games and things to do. This was great for a few of the rainy nights we had . The only downside was the very steep incline from the driveway to the house and from the house to the dock. But the house was beautiful and well-kept. Would definitely consider staying again

Family Vacation
The house is well set up for a large group. The kitchen is great for cooking and the dining table was able to accommodate all of us for meals. The climb up and down the hill is pretty long and steep. The driveway is a bit treacherous to navigate if you have a larger vehicle. We had a great stay.
4.9
My son was getting married in April. Family came in from Alabama and California. The view is incredible. The house has activities to keep everyone happy. The owner was so good to help us with every question we had. I would recommend this location. Best VRBO experience I have had.

Beautiful house that was plenty large enough for 2 families and one set of grandparents. We enjoyed the large dining room table for our group. The backyard had many seating options to view the water as well as a great fire pit area for s’mores. We also had a fun movie night downstairs.

We enjoyed the kayaks, swimming and fishing from the dock as well as the games provided downstairs. The owners are very friendly and reactive. There was a thunderstorm which blew a few breakers and someone came right away. Would highly recommend this property for a larger gathering of family or friends!

My stay was excellent. Only my review 2 weeks later was disturbing when I spoke to owner the same day about the master bedroom and now It’s a lot of things wrong after the place had been rented out again…. Not really sure what that was about. But on the other hand it was very nice only complaint was parking and that hill
