Awesome Property!

This place was amazing. Stayed here with family ( 4 adults and a nine month old). Great to walk around right in the lake and walking distance to a restaurant was super convenient. They even had a pack and play for the baby and an ice chest to use for our day outing in a rented boat. The snacks were a great little perk as well. Would definitely recommend this property!

Relaxing vacation!

We enjoyed our stay! It has beautiful views from the patio. There are plenty of places to walk and jog. Shopping is nearby and Port City is a fun place to eat and hang out. TV's could be bigger and master bed could use a pillow top but I like soft beds. Easy access to Davidson, Charlotte and the race track!

What a beautiful property! It was more than we imagined even with the pictures online. We arrived to a sparkling clean home with a basket of treats to choose from. This property had everything! We had been traveling for a while and needed to do some wash, and the owners had all we needed. We woke up craving caffeine, and tge owners had a variety of coffee choices for us. The property has a beautiful patio right next to Lake Norman, the bedrooms are lovely and comfortable, and it is right next to a fabulous restaurant. We even relaxed by the pool, and met some dear, friendly neighbors. The living spaces were extremely comfortable, and I wish we could have stayed longer. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Great place to stay!

We loved our recent family vacation in this condo. Had never been to Lake Norman before. Just the right size for 6 of us (4 adults and 2 teens) Nice view of Lake Norman for our morning coffee on the patio. Comfy furniture for relaxing in the evening. Lots of laughs around the table during game night. Rented a pontoon boat and had breakfast out on the lake, just beautiful. What a wonderful place to reconnect as a family! Thanks Bob!

Great location

The location and condo is idea. The view of the lake and close to everything you most possibly need is within 5 to 10 mins. The unit above was a bit to unpleasant, whereas you can hear every foot step throughout the condo. It made it hard to focus when reading a book or wishing for a bit quietness.

Family Time

My fiancé and I brought our children together for a family vacation for the first time! This condo was the perfect place! Great location! Very clean! Beautiful setting on lake Norman! Spacious! Fun decorations! Kitchen appeared to be updated! The stove cooked great! Nice patio out back with lake view! We'd definitely stay here again! Only two things that could have been better was: more wash rags (there were only about 3) and bigger screened tv's) but that wouldn't keep us from renting this condo again! We loved our three day get away on lake Norman! 😀
