Inside, the home is open, bright, and thoughtfully designed for group gatherings. The main level features a spacious, fully stocked kitchen with a large island and sunny breakfast nook. Brew your favorite blend with the Keurig and step out onto the back deck to enjoy the morning light over the water. In the living room, a plush sectional, large TV, and built-in wet bar set the scene for casual hangouts, game-day excitement, or evening cocktails. Just beyond, the stunning sunroom offers panoramic lake views through a wall of windows—a dreamy spot to relax, play cards, or enjoy a glass of wine. With a full dining area and extra tables in the sunroom, there's plenty of space for everyone to dine and unwind together.
The main floor hosts four well-appointed bedrooms. The primary suite features a king bed, TV, and private vanity nook. Two additional queen bedrooms share a stylish hallway bathroom, while a second king suite offers a bit of extra privacy—ideal for grandparents or couples traveling together.
Downstairs, the lower level is all about fun. Kick back on the oversized sectional for movie night, or get nostalgic with an old-school arcade game—yes, Pac-Man included. Tucked at the back of this spacious family room is a cozy bunk area with two twin XL beds over two queen beds, making it a perfect hangout and sleep space for kids, cousins, or close friends.
Outside, the magic continues. Roast marshmallows around the lakeside fire pit, sunbathe on your own sandy beach, or head out on the water using the provided kayaks and paddleboards. The private dock is ideal for tying up a rental boat and also features a covered sitting area with a porch swing—a peaceful perch for soaking up the view or watching the kids splash in the water.

The property was perfect for our family of 12. A very well stocked vacation home with everything you would need. From a fully stocked kitchen to beach towels to games to all sizes of life jackets all the way down to beach toys for the little ones. No detail left out. The dock and dock furniture were awesome. The sandy beach was one of very few on the lake. Loved it all !!

Family vacay
Great property. Easy access to lake, plenty of seating in the sun and shade. House is huge. Everyone had their own bedroom! Only negative is the kitchen ice maker doesn’t make much ice and the ice maker in the living room bar was broken. Trip to the Food lion for ice solved that problem.

Everything was great! Location is nice, starter kit was far more than that, kitchen fully stocked for handling large group, all linens and plenty of towels including lake towels great quality. The only thing I would point out is 1 fridge is not enough! Small dorm fridge in basement froze everything and ice maker at bar was broken. It felt like Tetris 3x per day and forced a change in meal planning and shopping. But would still return for sure!

Family weekend
Upon arrival the house was immaculate! Much larger then anticipated. It had everything we could ask for, even things that were not listed. There was a high chair, pack in play, life jackets in all sizes and beach towels for our use. All of the beds we’re comfortable and the start up supplies were more then enough!! We had 9 adults and 1 toddler and there was more then enough space. We loved the house and all the toys for the young and young at heart!! We also rented a boat for the day and had so much fun on the lake. We are already planning our next visit to Lake Norman
