Great House!
Loved our stay at Dogwood Bay! Stayed with a work group of friends to plan a summer camp for a nonprofit and the house was perfect. Had everything we needed, especially for cooking. It was clean, spacious and comfortable, and we even got to relax on the lake. Yard was beautiful!! Would definitely stay here again.

GIRLS WEEKEND
We had such a wonderful weekend. The house was clean and well supplied with everything from linens to kitchen gadgets and even paddleboards. The house is located in a wonderful spot on Lake Norman. We enjoyed the sunny lawn, watching boats on Memorial Day, and paddleboarding. The boaters were so respectful, no noisy parties. We felt safe walking around the neighborhood and had a special treat on our final morning: a baby fawn was born right outside the back porch. A perfect ending to a perfect weekend. We loved our stay so much we want to come back and bring our spouses.
