Great Stay!
This was a wonderful place to stay and we would definitely recommend! Great communication other than not realizing I needed to download an app for some of the information. Everyone was very quick to respond when I needed help with the code to the game room. Only issue we had was that we could not figure out how to work the ceiling fans in the rooms, but we only stayed 2 nights so it was not a big deal. Loved that there was a boat ramp for easy access to the lake!

Great place for family getaways!
The property was great, the kiddos loved the separate game house and the dock area was lovely. We really enjoyed the kayaks and just all of the outside space, fire pit, hammock and jacuzzi.
We had an issue with the hot water in the kitchen only working sporadically but the host was responsive and I’m sure got that repaired, we were only there for a weekend. We cooked a lot of big meals so we recommended they replace the can opener which didn’t work and provide more than one kitchen towel for drying the big pots and pans we had to wash by hand. The host was very grateful for our feedback.
The property was very lovely though and we had a wonderful weekend and would definitely be back!

Beautiful Property on the Water
Our group loved the roominess of the house along with the fabulous location on the lake! We took advantage of the amenities such as the fire pit, kayaks, hot tub, and numerous outdoor spaces. Everything was as advertised. We did feel the space could have been a bit cleaner upon our arrival, and did note that some pantry staples were missing (such as salt!) so we had to run out to purchase those even though they were supposed to be included. Overall we enjoyed our stay and the large living spaces, and we loved being right on the lake and being able to pop in the water for a swim. Sunsets and sunrises were gorgeous! A very peaceful and special place.

Family get together
The house was available at the designated check in. The location and lake view were great. The inside of the home was clean. However there were many issues/inconveniences. We were given one bath towel per person but no wash cloths. The outdoor trash cans were completely full the day we arrived. The property had cobwebs and spiders all around the porch and boat house which have been there for sometime due to size, the hot tube was disgusting and unusable, the patio furniture was covered with green mold and filthy could not sit on it. We encountered a copperhead snake on the walk way to the game room which tried to strike us. The itrip folks made excuses for everything but did send maintenance out to the property at 5pm which worked until 9pm to take care of the hot tube and furniture which could not be used for several days. The itrip check out process wanted me to strip all bedding, throw a load of towels in the washers, load and run the dishwasher after i paid all those fees for cleaning and SPECIAL FEES?? I would really appreciate if Vrbo would review all the fees and taxes charged with an explanation. ITrip blamed the state of nc with no explanation. Looking forward hearing back from you before posting my review.

We really enjoyed the property and area! There are several locations in and around the house for relaxation and fun. Our family could join together in the living room and dining room or retreat to another area for quiet time. We loved kayaking the lake, the hot tub, lounging in the hammock and sitting around the fire pit. It was a fantastic family vacay!

We loved the property! Soo much to do on and off the water. Only two draw backs, the boat slip is very narrow and we ended up using a local ramp. I wish the upstairs had a full bath other than through the master. Overall we had a great time and would definitely rent again.

Small bachelor/bachelorette weekend
We came into town with a small group of friends to celebrate our wedding that is in June. Lake Norman is a great spot ! The property was great for a group outing and having plenty of stuff to do weather permitting (large sun room that’s screened in) and detached garage turned into a game room!
The property had a fire pit, grill, hot tub, dock with kayaks. This is a great spot to stay with a group looking to spend time on the water. Was close to some nice restaurants and take out food as well.
We will def be trying to come back again!

Great for lakefront getaway. Plenty of space inside and out. Clean.
Overall, this is a great place to stay. The house is nice, the place was clean, there were plenty of towels and blankets. Plenty of outdoor space to enjoy, even in the winter. The house pretty much looks exactly like the photos.
The location is nice, we were right down the road from a nice park, restaurants, etc. The rooms were large, but the kitchen (as you can see in the photos) is kind of small in comparison to the rest of the house. It's still really nice though, it's mainly just a bit skinny for a house with 12 people all trying to get snacks at the same time.
The kitchen was extremely well equipped, possibly the best I've experienced. Knives that actually cut, all the different types of supplies we needed, etc.
I would definitely recommend staying there, and would definitely stay there again, but there were a few things we wish we'd known so here are some FYI points you may find helpful:
1. Make sure to check the hot tub as soon as you get here, it was down in the 80s so we bumped it up and had to wait until the next day to use it.
2. There's no actual walkway path from the parking area to the traditional front door of the home. The area where you do need to enter and exit involved you walking below the exterior steps and it was a bit awkward. Mainly for my parents, who have to watch their steps carefully.
3. The detached garage/game room is an uphill walk from the house and you have to go up several steps to get into the garage, in case that matters to you.
4. My parents stayed on the lower level bedroom so they wouldn't have to go up and down stairs the whole time. But just FYI that bedroom has a step going in and out of it inside and an oversized step going in and out of the exterior door.
The shower/tub in the bathroom on that level also was a decent step in and the tub was slick, so they ended up walking up the stairs to use the walk-in shower.
5. Communication could be better. We missed the fact that there was a number to call during our stay, because there were so many emails from them we didn't catch that part. So we messaged here instead and someone responded but never answered our questions. They eventually sent us that number, but they should have done that on the first day I messaged them instead of more than halfway through our trip.

Amazing View, Peaceful, Fun in the Water
We had an amazing time reuniting with family at this beautiful lake house. There were pros and cons, but overall, we had a wonderful time and may stay here again in the future. To be honest, I really didn’t know how much we’d like jumping off the platform into the lake- but it ended up being one of our favorite parts! It was very deep off the platform, so easy to jump in (or dive in my case). The water was very clean and refreshing. The kayaks were a lot of fun too! My 6 year old daughter was an expert by the time our 5 days were up. And almost everyone tried them out. The boat ramp area allowed for us to get in a little easier & there were shallower areas over there, as well, to stand in the water. Lots of rocks, but still nice. (Definitely need water shoes!) The boat house had little fishes swimming all around & my sister got the biggest kick out of them. The fire pit area was nice and a great place to enjoy s’mores. The lake and view are absolutely amazing! We had the balcony room #5 with the 2 beds- I woke up to watch the sunrise every morning. It was so peaceful and beautiful, nature at its best. I didn’t like the chairs on the balcony, but the rocking chairs were so comfy! The hot tub was great, even in a big downpour! The view was amazing and when the storms rolled in, we could see everything from the dining room area. One morning, the lawn crew came to mow the lawn- they were so quick & efficient! Overall, a wonderful stay! And the house was very clean. Hosts responded quickly & were friendly.
Cons: The pictures were a little deceiving at first- the driveway was A LOT steeper than we thought. The whole house & area were definitely not handicapped friendly & made for an interesting experience getting the older relatives into the house, but we managed. The game room is in a separate building, up the hill, closer to the road. When we first arrived, 4 pm, the door you come in has the afternoon sun. The blinds downstairs were left open, so the downstairs was very hot as was the door. The a/c was set at 76’F! that temp took a long time to cool the house down by late that night, it worked ok. the downstairs was still very warm until the 2nd full day-no main vents in the downstairs living room, just ones leading from the kitchen ∫o the dining room area. kitchen was nice, but the microwave and fridge shorted out a few times & we had to reset w/the breaker. Deck could use railing going down to lake. Couch was low, you sink & it separates

Lake Norman Visit
The stay was outstanding! The location and property was pristine and tucked away from civilization. The ONLY drawback was the HVAC. The entire house is cooled by a single unit for both upstairs and downstairs, and the thermostat was upstairs . Which meant the top floor would have to be left freezing cold just to keep the lower floor mildly cool. Other than that very small nuance, I would highly recommend and we are likely to book again.

The house was as expected. Access to the lake was good. The air conditioning in the game room did not work and it was too uncomfortable to stay in there. That was a real disappointment because it was one of the selling points for my grandchildren. And there were only 3 mirrors so it took a lot of time to get ready. We would stay again.
