Cozy Cottage at Mimosa Lake Retreat - 24 Acre Lakefront Property
Peaceful Lakefront Cottage — Private Retreat Near Charlotte, Carowinds & Golf
Welcome to The Cottage, a cozy hideaway nestled on a serene private lake shared by only three homes: The Cottage, The Rock, and EaglesView. Whether you're looking for quiet mornings with coffee by the water, sunset fireside chats, or easy access to the city — this gem offers the best of all worlds.
Surrounded by trees, wildlife, and still water, this tranquil setting is just 20 minutes from Charlotte Douglas Airport and Carowinds Amusement Park, yet feels a world away from it all.
About the Lake & Community
• Only three homes share the lake — peaceful, uncrowded, and private.
• Ideal for families, couples, or friends looking to reconnect with nature.
• Lake is home to fish, birds, and the occasional deer — bring your camera!
• Ask about renting multiple homes together for group stays or retreats
Location Highlights
• Convenient located less than an hour from Charlotte Douglas Airport
• Quick drive to Carowinds and Eagle Chase Golf Course
• Near antique shops, restaurants, and local attractions
• Disc golf course just down the road.
The Space
• 3 bedrooms, 4 beds — perfect for small families or groups
• 2 full bathrooms
• Cozy and bright living area with views of the trees
• Fully equipped kitchen and family-style dining area
• Streaming services + fast Wi-Fi
• On-site parking
Outdoor Features
• Fire pit right by the water — unwind under the stars
• Peaceful lake views and quiet mornings on the porch
• Fishing available upon request — just bring your gear
• Ample outdoor seating and space to explore
Pet-Friendly (With Approval)

A WARM AND PERSONAL EXPERIENCE!
Welcome to Little Lake Retreat, where we take pride in offering a warm and personal experience. We’ll personally greet you upon arrival to ensure everything feels just right from the start. To make your stay smooth and enjoyable, we have a few simple house rules covering parking, additional guest registration, and similar details. You can also expect a few friendly texts from us before your arrival to help with your preparations.
These practices may feel a little different, but they allow us to build a meaningful connection with you while ensuring everyone’s comfort and safety. We genuinely believe this thoughtful approach benefits both you as our guest and us as your hosts. We can’t wait to welcome you!
To protect the lake’s ecosystem, only pre registered permited guests can fish. Please note that fishing isn’t automatically included. You’re welcome to swim, walk around the lake, and enjoy other activities!
