  From the minute we drove through what seemed to be a private driveway, our expectations were met on every level. There was nothing we could want for in this delightful home. How surprised we were to even find a big screen TV. That was a wonderful surprise. Then Ray came and fixed the hot tub for us. Thank you Ray.

  We have gone to Charlotte the past couple of years on New Year's to see a band in concert. Instead of staying at a hotel downtown we decided to check into other options outside of the city and found this wonderful place! We stayed for 3 nights and it was so relaxing and peaceful and the sunsets truly are amazing on the lake. We like to travel with our our two dogs and they absolutely loved the giant field adjacent to the house to run around in. We plan to come back here next New Years and hopefully in the Spring or summer so we can really enjoy the lake and go swimming, fishing, and kayaking!

  We stayed at this lovely Sanctuary cottage during Christmas so we could be close to family. The owner was very accommodating and made us feel at home. The house was just as described and the owner was very helpful with our questions and providing information about the area. This is a very neat, clean, roomy cottage with a spectacular view. I would highly recommend this house for 4-5 people. We could not enjoy the summer activities but we will return during warmer months. One of the best VBRO experiences we have had. No surprises, everything we needed was provided.

  My family had a wonderful time at the lake house. Everything was clean, spacious and comfortable. My dad loved the HUGE flat screen TV! There are DVD's, puzzles, and board games for your enjoyment or if it isn't raining and you're really wanting to relax, there is a hot tub on the back deck. We also enjoyed kayaking up the shoreline with the provided kayaks and fishing off the dock for catfish. Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

  This was just right for our family. We didn't want to spend a lot on this vacation and this was just what we were looking for. I am a germ/clean freak and I was comfortable here. The views are wonderful, great location right on the water. The owners, Ray and Deb, are fantastic people and we could tell how hard they have worked to think of everything to make a great vacation for their guests. We hope to be back soon. Thanks so much Ray and Deb!

  I rented the house for a few days to relax and I absolutely loved it. The view from the living room is gorgeous and the sunset on the perfect side of the house. I will definitely be back!

  I have used VRBO before and had a good experience so when we decided to make a trip to NC to visit my son and family, I did a lot of looking for a place on Lake Wylie for 2 weeks. This choice was the best! My grandkids 4 1/2 and 6 went swimming everyday and sometimes three times a day. They had on lifejackets so they enjoyed jumping off the end of the dock and making big splashes. My sons used the kayaks and the fishing gear. One of the boys did catch a big catfish, about 6 pounds! The grandkids were excited about the fish but really had the most fun feeding bread to the fish. When we weren't outside, the grandkids were entertained by all the movies at the cottage for kids. Also there were a few games they could play and loved the Twister. Ray and Deb have thought of everything to make the stay memorable. From the beginning of the day to the end with spectacular sunsets, it was a great experience.

  We had such a great time during our stay. The cottage looks just like the pictures in the listing. We were all impressed with the comfortable homey feel. It's spotlessly clean; has luxurious linens; and the kitchen has everything you could ask for to prepare meals. We were also pleasantly surprised to have paper & plastic goods, bath and laundry supplies furnished. The best surprise for me was to have Deb's cooking spices available for our use. It would be difficult to find a better view of the lake. We relaxed just sitting enjoying the scenery. The kids had a great time jumping off the dock and swimming. Our grandchildren had just returned with us from a week at the beach and they also preferred the "lake cottage." Debbie and Ray were so helpful and cordial in all of our dealings. We thank them for sharing their home with our family. Hope to visit again!

  Every year we take our six grandkids for a few days to just spend time with them without the parents! We usually head to the beach but decided on a lake setting this year...what a great decision! Lake Wylie is beautiful and the cottage was perfect for us. The kids remarked that this was their "favorite" destination. They were water-logged by the end of the day...just how many times can kids jump off a dock??? They kayaked around the point, fished off the dock (one morning caught 17 fish), played games, and enjoyed the sunsets. We spent one day at the US Whitewater Center...a great side trip. Thanks to Deb and Ray for sharing their cottage with us. We are looking forward to a return visit.
