Lake House

This is a lovely home that was ideal for our visit! We had a small scared puppy and this was the first time he was on a trip. He was comfortable and loved running in the fenced yard. They even provided "poopy bags" although we brought our own. Great thinking!!! We used the fire pit and it was perfect! We gathered the dried twigs from around the yard and this worked perfectly.The swing is well placed to sit to view the lake .....which is spectacular. The kitchen was well appointed and, as my son is a chef, we brought lots of his pans and utensils. We didnt need to use them as there were plenty at the house. Thanks for setting up a great VBRO. We would love to return this Summer for another visit!!!!

Relaxing and hassle free

Very nice on the lake in quiet cove. Very clean and comfotable. Dock to sit on or tie up your boat. We had kayaks with us...the only note is there are stairs down to house from driveway and then steep walkway to dock.

Relax on the Lake

We really enjoyed our stay over Thanksgiving. We hiked and shopped and relaxed. Just what we needed. The home had everything we needed and more. It was very comfortable.

Roomy home with lovely view

Nice home in convenient location. It's very clean, but it's worth noting for those who are sensitive, the finished guest space in basement is extremely musty. The kitchen and baths are updated. High quality towels and bedding. Very comfortable. Responsive owners and a pleasant view. Would stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Debbie and Kevin Richart

We are long time residents of Hickory, NC. 261 Michaels Gap is now our second home. We recently moved to the coast of North Carolina but wanted to keep a place in Hickory to stay while visiting our grandchildren. We offer our home to you when we are away because it would be a waste to leave such a beautiful place empty. It should be enjoyed.

Why they chose this property

This is a very quiet neighborhood. The only noise is the sound of children playing in the water during the summer and the sound of golfers teeing off from the nearby public golf course.

What makes this property unique

This location on the lake is a well-kept secret. By water, the only way to access the cove is through a no-wake zone. Most recreational boaters turn around at the no-wake zone and don't enter the cove. This cuts the amount of boat traffic tremendously and allows for swimming, canoeing, kayaking, paddle boarding, etc. with minimal threat from power boats.
