About this property
A Spirited Retreat Lakefront w/Dock, Theatre & Gameroom!
Nestled in the heart of the Uwharrie Forest, A Spirited Retreat is a newly-renovated, lakefront sanctuary designed with everyone in mind. Bring the family or enjoy a couples’ getaway in this peaceful lake house on Lake Badin, ideal for those looking to enjoy quality time together and/or the adventures of lakefront living, hiking and more!

The space
Lakefront | 2,850 Sq Ft | Master Bedroom: King Bed | Bedroom 2: King Bed | Bedroom 3: 4 Twin/Bunk Beds | Lower Level: Game Room, Home Theatre
-Due to the water access, guests agree to read, understand and adhere to the Liability Waiver included in the "Guest Access" section of the listing.
Need to relax? Soak in the sounds of nature and admire the views from the fully-furnished living areas or Adirondack chairs on the back deck. Dream of adventure? Grab a paddle board and jump in Badin Lake or explore and hike Morrow Mountain (only eight miles away)! This 3-bedroom, 2 1/2-bath vacation home in New London is a destination in itself. A fully-appointed kitchen with dining area, a cozy living room, a home theatre, and a game room (featuring a pool table, foosball, and arcade machine) await! Be sure to pack some marshmallows for s’mores around the fire pit, but we’ll provide some fishing poles for fun right off the boat dock!
When you’re ready to venture away from the house, take the family to North Carolina Zoo in Asheboro, grab our hiking guide book and hit the Uwharrie Trails, or rent a kayak at Lake Tillery Boat Rentals.

OUTDOOR LIVING: Spacious Back Deck with Gas Grill (propane provided), Four-person Outdoor Dining Table (directly off of kitchen), and Set of Adirondack chairs (directly off of master ensuite) | Lower Patio with Seating area | Six Adirondack chairs surround Fire-pit | Open Water with Private Dock and Four-person Bar-style Dining Table (8-10 feet water depth right off dock).
