Super cute!!

I don’t typically leave reviews but I just really wanted to this time. This place was so cute! Decor was adorable and just what we needed for a couple of days! It’s close to a grocery store, places to eat, ice cream, etc. It was very conveniently located to where we needed to be while in town! We met the owner briefly and she was very pleasant and helpful! We will most definitely stay here again if we are back this way!

Great place for a weekend in the Lake Norman Area

We came across this property while trying to find a place to stay while our floors were being redone. This property met our needs and more. Very comfortable and quaint place that kept us close to our home to check in on the work. The host has thought of everything to make sure your stay is comfortable. The property is behind a business but is very close to restaurants , grocery and Old Town Cornelius by walking or car. We were very pleased with the linens and the cleanliness, especially a property that allows small dogs. Great to know this property is close to our home and when we have work done again and need to be out of the house , this will be our first place we look.

Wonderful!

I cannot express enough gratitude for this getaway and our host. My friend and I arrived after a stressful and uncertain time in our lives, and from the moment we stepped inside, it felt like home. The space was quiet, comfortable, and welcoming—exactly what we needed. Lorillee went above and beyond to ensure our stay was smooth and enjoyable. We truly appreciated having this sanctuary while we waited for our new home to be ready. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful and homey retreat. Thank you for everything!

Good location, quite. Bathroom smelled like urine baseboards dirty dusty It was not a 2 bathroom unit as stated by owner. Have pictures. Not enough towels, hand towel, bath. Bedroom had a double bed not a queen. The larger bedrooms headboard was dusty. The couches in living room had coverings over them and were not inviting.
