About this property

What a View! Perfect Family Meeting Place. BIG Views! Private.

**Thanksgiving and Christmas require a minimum 7 night stay

Just 40 minutes from Charlotte, this renovated 2,700 square foot lakefront retreat offers the perfect mix of comfort, style, and relaxation. Set on a private point with 230 feet of shoreline, it feels like your own hidden escape while still being only five minutes from the boat launch, Publix, gas, and restaurants.

The home sits on a quiet cove with direct access to Lake Norman, giving you calm, clear waters for swimming and fishing, while the main channel is only a short ride away. With no bridges in the way, boating is easy and worry-free.

Inside, there’s plenty of room for everyone with three bedrooms, a loft, and three and a half bathrooms that comfortably sleep up to twelve guests. The master suite features a king bed, private bath, and beautiful lake views, while the queen bedroom has its own balcony overlooking the water. A third bedroom with two bunk sets (twin over full/queen) makes it perfect for kids or larger groups. The private loft and cozy game room with a pull-out couch provide even more sleeping space and hangout areas.

The house is stocked with entertainment for all ages, including Roku TVs, kayaks, bikes, basketball, ping pong, a pool table, arcade games, and a swing set for the little ones. Outside, the level yard is ideal for games like horseshoes, badminton, and bocce. Evenings are best spent gathered around the fire pit under the stars, roasting marshmallows and sharing stories.

For days on the water, you’ll love the spacious sun deck and private dock, perfect for swimming, fishing, or just soaking up the view. Guests also have the option to rent a Godfrey Pontoon with a 115HP Yamaha for $1,700 per week or $550 per day (two-day minimum), plus tax, fuel, and a refundable deposit.

This is a family-friendly retreat designed for relaxation and fun, but please note that weddings or large events are not permitted.

Whether you’re planning a quiet getaway or an adventure-filled trip with family and friends, this Lake Norman home is the perfect place to make lasting memories.

Thanks for considering our property! Brent

My family and I had a great stay at this property, the home was great, very clean, and accommodated all of us very well. Great lake view, the quiet cove was a great place to swim and kayak. Renting the boat was very easy, and we enjoyed the lake everyday on it. Highly recommended! Thank you!

The Perfect Getaway Weekend

We decided to go away for a weekend on extremely short notice and we found this property to be available, and it was a great stay! It was overall clean and the provided linens were very convenient. If you’re going to stay here, absolutely rent the boat - it’s worth it. **spiders are a thing, but just bring a spray bottle of peppermint oil diluted with water and spray in necessary areas.

Great weekend getaway.

My family and I rented the house for Presidents’ Day weekend and couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. The house is well appointed and the location is great. There are lots of things for the kids to when not out on the water. The dock is very nice and we rented the pontoon which worked out perfectly. Would definitely visit again and recommend the property to our family and friends.

Amazing house on the lake

Our family thoroughly enjoyed the house and all it had to offer. From the game room, ping pong, basketball, playground and fire pit to the beautiful lake and boat, we all had the best time. The location of the house was perfect with gorgeous views, being able to swim off the dock, easy access to the lake, and it was very close to a grocery store. The kitchen was well stocked and the furniture was comfy. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay on Lake Norman.

Peaceful, beautiful views and well equipped vacation home.

We really enjoyed the spacious clean home, location and views. We spent time feeding the ducks, swimming in the warm clear lake and puttering around the beautifully landscaped yard and dock. There was lots more to do with ping pong, pool table and kids outdoor equipment. Our dog loved it too. We will be back! The owner was responsive and attentive.
