About the host

Hosted by Katie Reuben

Host profile image
Welcome to our New Lake Home, Lake Escape. We're peaceful, family loving, laid-back folks that delight in hosting family and friends, showing them what beautiful North Carolina has to offer. We've enjoyed traveling and staying in many rentals. With that experience, we have come to know what necessities and extra touches make for a great visit.  We hope to extend that hospitality to our guests.

Why they chose this property

First--The beds. Its Lake Time. Enjoy the peaceful sleep.

Second--the views. Top floor can’t get any better than this.

Third--the well-appointed accommodations—cathedral ceilings, newly renovated, stylish furniture, attractive decorations, newer appliances, the thoughtful amenities.

Fourth--the elevator.  Get your steps in when you want, use the lift when you're toting those grocery bags!

Fifth--hosts that really care about your experience.

What makes this property unique

First--a great night's sleep, every night.  Isn't that what vacations are for?  Oh--you're working remote.  Like we said--a great night's sleep!

Second--those views!  Take the calm, relaxing zen you get from just BEING in sight of the water and sunsets, and it's already a vacation (even if it's a remote-work visit).

Third--Insta-ready and FOMO-worthy backdrop to every memory-maker photo you take. Making unique memories to take home with you.

Fourth--get those steps in . . . or don't and just stand there on the elevator, whatever is you right then.

Fifth--Your stay is better because your host listened to the folks before you and incorporated all the great ideas they suggested.  And your voice will be the reason the folks after you will have their best stay ever.  Thank you in advance for your thoughtful remarks!
