🔥 Is firewood provided? No—but local grocery stores sell bundles right out front. Grab a lighter too, as they tend to disappear and we don’t stock them (liability).
🛋️ Can I use the indoor fireplaces? Our indoor fireplaces are decorative and not intended for use. Again, a standard in our area for managers due to insurance and liability.

The pool was amazing! We loved being able to have a private dock to sit, kayak and tie up our boat. It was very quiet and felt like we were the only ones around.
Home was great, the pool was awesome. Very clean and nice area. Our only issue was their was confusion on the boat rental. But everything worked out. Would stay again!
Enjoyed the house, nicely appointed decor. Note to owner: A few things need repair. Lake view, pool, fire pit, kitchen, baths and yard very nice and comfortable.
We stayed for a long Memorial Day weekend (Thurs - Tues). Everything was great! The house was clean, included all amenities (towels, bed sheets, toilet paper, etc...). The backyard was great. The deck was very big and nice, the swimming pool was awesome. Highly recommend this property!
What an amazing place by the lake! My family and I were visiting North Carolina for the first time, and intended on visiting both Charlotte and the national White water center. We decided on this location as it provided a house we could easily stay in if we decided to take it easy.
We did just that the first couple of nights. Most of the time we spent in the pool, and bbq'ed.
Each room has everything we needed, and whatever we didn't have we could obtain from Publix or the such.
Really happy with location, at the price. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks!
Things we Liked
The pool. I appreciate it was cleaned on day 2. The backyard & deck. The bedrooms. The bathrooms. The ability to launder our clothes. The stocked linens, tp etc in the bathrooms & the supplies in the kitchen and laundry room.
Disliked
The code was changed at the last minute so when we arrived Saturday night we could not immediately access the house. We had to call to get the new code.More lighting for at night. Consider adding a desk & chair for telecommuter access.The stairs are very slippery. I fell down the stairs & almost hurt myself. Consider adding a rail to the right &/or a runner.There were curtain rods but no curtains &/or blinds on all 1st floor windows(excluding the 1st floor bathroom).Dryer does not adequately dry the clothes. You have to process for 2-3 separate cycles to completely dry the clothes.Cobb webs need to be removed from windows and fixtures.Grill was filthy & needs new grates.Hrass beyond the pool & gate needs to be cut.Boating dock accessories (life jackets etc) need updating. A lot of the items were rusty & dusty w/spider webs all over.Garage was locked & closed off and not accessible from inside the house. This I don’t have an issue with. However one day I heard a nose coming from inside the garage. That was un-nerving. It really creeped me out. Also one day we left & when we returned our trash can had been brought to the road. This further creeped me out. It appears that someone may have accessed the residence while we were gone
The house was clean and spacious for our family of five. Pool was awesome - we used it every day. House was conveniently located near shops and restaurants and lake activities. The water in the cove at the house was dry (and had been for quite some time - not sure it should be listed as a lakefront property). The host did notify us a couple weeks prior to our stay that it was dry, but better to just manage expectations when people are booking trips well in advance. Overall, we had a great time at this house. Best part was the pool!
Great weather and great pool! Easy access to grocery and restaurants. Limited on kitchen supplies, but we were fine for the week with no big meals to make. Comfy linens and plenty of towels.
The property was beautiful and cozy. It was just the relaxing trip we needed. My family and pet felt at home and enjoyed the various amenities. My only two disappointments were the lake was dry in direct view of the property and the water pressure took a bit to kick in. Neither were deal breakers. I’d recommend this rental to others.
The lake was dry so we couldn’t do anything water related which stunk and I feel someone should have told us about that weeks prior so we could have made other arrangements, the bed was hard as a rock, the water pressure was terrible, the shower curtain in the master didn’t reach the top of the tub so it blew around, there was dog hair all over the furniture, the couches in the living room were so uncomfortable to sit on, the stairs were slippery and hard to walk on due to the lack or carpet, the patio cushions were filthy and full of algae, the pool was supposed to be heated but was very cold, no blinds or curtains in the first level which was odd and made me uncomfortable and we tired to use the awning but the remote didn’t work. The house it’s self was ok but all of these issues made the trip less then good.
