I stayed at the Huntersville House for 34 days to be close to my NC family, have friends visit from the east coast and to escape the winter in Northeast Ohio. The location is central to the areas of Charlotte, Concord, Kannapolis and Davidson. There are many shopping areas, restaurants, hiking trails, Lake Norman, Charlotte Speedway and tourist attractions near by. The neighborhood is quiet and safe and availability of a new grocery store is a mile away. The house is outstanding in both decor, furnishing and extras that are provided; everything a guest could want. If you travel with a dog as I did, the fenced yard is such a bonus. The large deck is perfect for dining, relaxing and cooking on a big grill. The host, Mike, is the best and responds in a timely manner and attention to any concerns. I would recommend this rental for both a short term or long term visit and would certainly stay there again.
