Awesome stay

House and amenities are great, so is the location. Unfortunately during our stay the weather did not cooperate so we weren't able to enjoy all the awesome outdoor features.

Great Host!!!

We had a great stay here! The host really has the place well equipped. Clean, great location, peaceful dock that you can swim off of. The kayaks and paddle board were fun. (But be aware that they have a weight limit of around 225 lb). Lots to do in the area. Great communication with the host

Amazing stay!

We stayed in this cabin for my sister’s bachelorette weekend. Jamie was so accommodating leaving us snacks and the place had everything we needed for cooking. The view and location of the cabin was perfect and complete with a hammock overlooking the lake and a dock with chairs where we were able to sit and talk perfect for a weekend stay!

This cabin was perfect for our stay. Ideally situated on top of a hill among the trees with a glimmering view of the lake. Perfect refuge after hours in the hot summer of NC.

Amazing Lake Cottage!

Could not beat this lake house! It was clean and had all the amenities that we needed while in town for a friends wedding. We have already recommended this place to several friends and plan to stay again hopefully soon!

Perfect summer getaway!

My sons and I had the best time at Lake Norman. The home was perfect for us, and exactly or even better in person. Clean, everything you need, and easy booking and checkin. My kids loved fishing from the dock and we rented a jet ski for a couple days which was a blast. Would definitely stay again.

We had a multi generational weekend get together. Jamie was a great host and we had everything we needed. The kitchen is well appointed.The house was cozy and comfortable. We hope to return and take more advantage of the lake amenities when the weather is warmer.

Perfect weekend getaway!

Jamie’s property is the perfect quiet getaway! The house is so cutely decorated and has everything you might need. Jamie was so helpful and responded quickly anytime we reached out to her. We were a group of 5 Moms looking for some relaxation and time together and it was perfect. We spent most of our time on the dock enjoying the peaceful cove of the lake and the kayaks. We would definitely stay here again!

Great stay

The house was very clean and comfortable. It was exactly as shown in the listing. Jamie was very responsive and attentive to any questions. The boat lift wasn’t very user friendly, but we were still able to use it. Overall an excellent weekend with family!

Statesville Balloon Festival

My family came into town for the Statesville Hot Air Balloon Festival. We had a great weekend staying on Lake Norman in this quaint home. We cherished the quiet and seclusion while still being close to town. We used the kayaks and fished off the dock. Clean and comfortable! Jamie was easy to communicate with and quick to respond. Only wish it could’ve lasted longer.

Cute and Cozy

Lovely home with a cozy feel. This is a great home for someone with limited mobility, in that you can walk right into the house with no steps and it is one level. There is a large shower with a small step and a handheld shower head. The toilets are low and the kitchen is long and narrow but that does not take away from the charm and ease of the house. Even for someone with limited mobility there is a great view of the water and the sunroom is a great place to soak up the outside. The fire pit and dock and well maintained and provide a great opportunity to be outside. The fire pit is well shaded and provides great seating. The dock is well built and has stairs leading into the water. The stairs leading to the dock are a lot but a great way to get your exercise in for the day. My family thoroughly enjoyed this home and hope to stay again.
