Excellent home base for family reunion

My wife and daughter stayed here with my brothers family and their son. The house was an excellent "home base" for a family reunion we were having on the lake. Everything was clean and had just what we needed for a brief stay.

Cozy & clean

We enjoyed our short stay visiting family in the area. The house was clean and communication with the property owner was outstanding. Despite being a small house, it provided enough space for a party of six (two kids).

Great place outside of Charlotte

We really enjoyed the home! It is a bit of an older property, but it is very up to date and extremely clean. Matt was helpful when we ran into a little issue and got it solved right away even though it was during the holiday. 10/10 would recommend and we are already planning our next visit. Easy 30 minutes to Charlotte and a Publix about 5 minutes away.

Great Clean Home

Great house, clean and great location. No complaints but some things that could change. The bedrooms run crazy warm at night and the beds are not the most comfortable. Bring a box fan or something for some air movement if you want to close your bedroom door. For 5 adults, there isn't enough seating in the living room. The kitchen is great and ice makers is wonderful.

Easter weekend 2023

This was a very clean and cozy house. Recently updated as well as new appliances. Each bedroom had towels/washcloths as well as sample size shampoo/conditioner and soap waiting on the bed. Each bedroom also has its own TV. The backyard is very big with plenty of room for families to have fun. Parking was also plentiful and there is room for a boat if you need it. There are many access points to the lake from this location. Shopping for anything you may need is only a few miles away as well. The owner was great and allowed us a special accommodation which we really appreciated. I would recommend staying here.

About the host

Hosted by Matt Phillips

Host profile image
We are world travelers that love meeting people and experiencing new cultures, customs & foods. As frequent travelers, and parents of two young boys and a daughter, we never found hotels ideal for our needs as they often lacked the local character we were looking for and rarely provided space families need. We loved staying at Short Term Rentals but unfortunately had some unpleasant experience due to hosts that didn't take pride in their homes and the experience they provided.

As entrepreneurs, we decided to solve the problem ourselves which is why we started hosting ourselves.

Keeping true to our backgrounds, our home is inclusive of all guests no matter race or background. In fact, we encourage diversity and many of the properties that we operate are purposefully in true and authentic neighborhoods that feature lots of diversity and character. It truly is the best way to experience a city.

All of our units allow for self check-in and are professionally cleaned, provide free WiFi, toiletries and premium sheets/linens to ensure that guests have a comfortable experience. Guests will enjoy a worry-free stay while also being immersed in the authentic culture of the cities and neighborhoods they are visiting through our carefully selected and decorated spaces. We have also partnered with local service providers and restaurants to provide our guests with discounts, offers, services and recommendations which only locals are typically privileged to.

We live by a simple motto: 'Treat Others How You Wish To Be Treated' and that is the core value we abide by. We want our guests to experience a city how we as travelers want to experience.

Come experience our properties and truly feel a part of the community you are visiting.
During your stay
We are available 24 hr/day, 7 days a week. Please reach out to us via Airbnb messenger, SMS or email. We're happy to help.

Why they chose this property

We have other properties around the Lake. I wanted to have something affordable for People wanting a comfortable home for a great price. Nothing fancy but with everything you need. The driveway is great and you can fit multiple cars or boats.
