Stunning Lake Views & Open Living Spaces

Relax & Dine on the Large Screened-In Porch
One of the best features of the home is the expansive screened-in porch, complete with a cozy sitting area and a dining table for six. Start your morning with coffee while watching the sunrise, or wind down in the evening with dinner and drinks as the sun sets over the water.

• Large dock with an awning for shade on hot days
• Kayaks available to explore the cove
• Lily pad float for lounging on the water
• Life jackets provided for kids and adults

About the host
Hosted by Kristen Dawson

We're a family from Charlotte that fell in love with beautiful and secluded Lake Tillery and the Uwharrie region and use this property as our little getaway spot.
Why they chose this property
We love the beautiful views of the lake and main lake access with the privacy of the cove.
It's also great being only 10 minutes away from the convenience of shopping and activities in Albermarle and accessibility to all directions.
