Family friendly lakefront retreat. Grill, private dock, kayaks

Relax, unwind, and have fun at this 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home on a quiet cove of Lake Norman. The hundreds of trees on this one-acre Mooresville property offer privacy in a location that is super convenient for shopping, groceries, and attractions. The house comfortably sleeps eight, with three bedrooms (4 beds) and two futons in the basement. There is a full bathroom on each level (3 full baths).

Friends and family can lounge in the over 2,200 square feet of living space, cook out and dine on the huge lakefront deck, relax on the porch swings, or enjoy the water with seven adult kayaks and two youth kayaks provided.


-- THE PROPERTY --
Master Bedroom: King Bed | Bedroom 2: Queen Bed | Bedroom 3: Twin/Full Beds | Basement: 2 Full Futons

Using the regular coffeemaker or Keurig, start your morning with a cup of coffee on the 1,000-square-foot wraparound deck. Overlooking the peaceful waterfront, listen to the songbirds while enjoying the pleasant breeze coming from the lake. You will see lots of birds, ducks, and geese, some turtles sunbathing around the cove, and a heron who likes to hang around the dock!

Spend your afternoon on the lake floating in the water, swimming, or using the 9 kayaks provided (5-8 foot; 1-10 foot; 1-12 foot, and 2 6-foot youth kayaks). The kids will delight in being able to fish right off the dock. Slip away for a fun waterside lunch by car, boat, or kayak to several restaurants close by. If you have your own boat or choose to rent one from one of the local marinas, you can dock it right at the house!

After memorable hours on the water, cook out on the deck on the outdoor gas grill, admiring the view with a drink in hand until dinner is ready. Or stay inside and whip up a fabulous feast in the fully equipped kitchen! During the meal preparations, your kids can watch their favorite shows on one of the three TVs.

Wrap up the day by swinging on the porch swings on the downstairs patio and breathing in the fresh lake air. Watch the sunset over the water before heading inside to end the evening in the basement, a great spot for the group to spend quality time.

Enjoy a family movie night on the 50" Samsung 4K Smart TV with cable, streaming capabilities, and a DVD player. Choose between a Netflix film or one of the 75 assorted DVDs provided! When the day finally comes to an end, guests of the master bedroom will retreat to the upstairs loft with a king bed, en-suite bathroom, and mounted flat-screen TV.

* NOTE: The home is pet-friendly (dogs only) with a fee. The pet fee must be paid before your arrival. Please include any questions/requests in your booking inquiry *

-- THE LOCATION --

Tucked right into a cove of North Carolina's magnificent Lake Norman, you'll experience the peacefulness of a lakeside property while also being situated 10 minutes or less from almost anything you want to do.

Downtown Mooresville is a little over 5 miles away, where you can discover the town's parks, museums, antique shops, and other tourist attractions or stroll down Main Street. Within 15 minutes are several boat rental services you can choose from if you don't own your own.

There are dozens of great restaurants surrounding the property with food choices ranging from burgers, subs, and pizza to sushi, Italian, seafood, or Chinese - something for everyone! During days on the water, make your way across the lake on your boat to Hello, Sailor for delectable Southern seafood cuisine.

Eddie's on Lake Norman is a local favorite also known for seafood as well as burgers, bar food, and Sunday brunch! Accessible by water and by car, it's just minutes from the property and a perfect family outing.

Great spot to stay
We loved the location, the dock, the neighbors. The only downer was the mosquitos as dark approached, which are out of the owners control. We loved the place and next time we come to Lake Norman, we plan to stay here.

We traveled from NJ and MD and had a great 6 day stay. The property was in a perfect location, very clean and had everything we could need for our multi generational family. We enjoyed swimming and kayaking right off the dock. It exceeded our expectations! The owner was very accessible to answer our questions as we planned our trip.

Enjoyed our stay
Brought our family of 6 here. Was a nice quaint home, which reminded us a bit of a mountain cabin, yet at the lake. We rented a pontoon and had a nice long day on the lake. House is clean, quiet and well maintained. Super close to Publix and local restaurants...but yet felt secluded. Overall we had a great little vacation here!
