Beautiful lakefront property on quiet but open cove with expansive views to enjoy from a swing, fire pit and small beach area. We enjoyed the hot tub on two of the crisp evenings. The interior had lots of windows and a clean airy feel. Lovely updated and well equipped kitchen. (One note- The access gravel driveway is somewhat steep and rutty, currently accessed through major construction zone!)

We traveled from Maryland and met our adult children and 1-year old grandson for a wonderful 4th of July weekend. House was perfect for all of us! The outside was the best!! Lovely double swing to relax and watch the fireworks. We all loved the beach area - kids loved the paddle boards and the canoe and it was perfect for our grandson to play in the water!!

Great family house

Beautiful location and great set up for boating on Lake Wylie. The beach area was perfect and my daughters loved playing in the water and trying to catch little fish. We had fun with the paddle boats and kayaks, but didn't see any life jackets, so bring your own. Few issues were resolved with property manager promptly. Wasn't aware this was on a dirt road - definitely feels more private/ secluded. Overall - great stay!
