★ WHY THIS HOUSE ★
I lived in this house for a year before deciding to list it as a rental property and can confidently state that its tranquil cottage-style charm creates a relaxing atmosphere that offers a getaway from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Nestled in a quiet setting, the property offers a peaceful vibe perfect for those seeking relaxation and serenity. The cottages' design embraces natural light, with large windows that flood the interior kitchen and living room with sunshine throughout the day, creating a bright and airy ambiance. Whether you're sipping coffee in the cozy living room or enjoying the serene view from the private yard, the combination of natural light and the calming, rustic feel of the home provides a uniquely peaceful living experience. This property is ideal for anyone seeking a calm, nature-filled escape with all the comforts of home.

★ MY INTERACTION WITH GUESTS ★
As a host, I firmly believe in providing exceptional service to all guests who stay in my home and I do not use any form of automated messages or canned responses like other hosts. I genuinely enjoy the hospitality portion of this industry and want my guests to feel welcome and meet the needs of their stay. After providing service to hundreds of families during my time as a host, I can confidently say each family or grouping is unique in their own way. While automation allows for hosts to scale, I am more concerned with the service provided and ensuring my guests needs are met. I am available 24 hours a day via message, text or call to address any questions, concerns or matters that surface before, during or after your stay :)

A lovely escape…
My children and I immensely enjoyed our time on the lake. The home was lovely and Ryan is an outstanding host. We enjoyed the games provided in the home and time on the lake. Everything is as described. It was perfect, relaxing, end of summer family time before the school year begins.

Great Stay on Lake Norman
We like the fact the house was stocked with toilet paper, paper towels, coffee, and trash bags. We appreciated the welcome basket and the extra bottled water in the fridge. A ladder on the dock would have been nice, but we were able to rent a boat and have it at the house.

Beautiful & Comfortable!
This place is everything you expect it to be! Super clean, well stocked, peaceful & quiet, and COMFORTABLE. We travel alot and stay in alot of places that dont have beds that sleep well or couches you can stand to sit on for longer than 10 minutes, but that is not the case here. Beds and sitting areas are all comfortable and spacious and outdoor area is amazing. Will definitely stay again when in town to visit family.

Family Get Together
The home was very clean and plenty of room for our family members to be able to enjoy dinners together and yet have privacy when needed. Our host, Ryan was excellent. He was informative, professional, friendly and willing to help us out if we had any issues. We all agreed that he was awesome to have as a property host. Only a short drive away is the Lake Norman State Park which we visited several times for hiking, biking, running and even some canoeing. A very nice location for day trips. Our family time at this vacation property was enjoyed by our whole family and would highly recommend it.

Early Holiday Present
We decided to do away with the usual gifts and gift a family vacation instead. The property was amazing, better than anticipated! Our Host went above and beyond in our opinion, making the home feel like our home away from home. Based on this trip, we would definitely do it again. The area at this time of year is much quieter than in the summer, but we definitely appreciated the tranquility of the lake at this time of year.

Great Getaway
The house is everything you see and more. We truly enjoyed our stay at Lake Norman in large part due to Ryan and his wonderful home. We have three teenagers and they all enjoyed the many amenities of the house- video games, popcorn machine, kayaks, and paddle boards to name a few. The house is in a great location on a peaceful cove of Lake Norman. My wife and I agreed that Ryan and this house were by far our best experience with VRBO ever! Ryan was very responsive leading up to our trip and even during. The dock provides a peaceful place to relax. We rented a boat for several days and had no problems. We will definitely be back to enjoy this wonderful place! Thanks again Ryan!

Wonderful Weekend with the Family
My recent stay at Ryan’s (Host) lake house was an absolute dream come true! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by breathtaking views of the serene lake and surrounded by lush, green nature. This VRBO truly provided a perfect getaway, offering a slice of heaven away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The house itself was beautifully appointed and tastefully decorated, with a cozy and inviting ambiance. It was evident that Ryan paid attention to detail, ensuring that every comfort and convenience was thoughtfully provided. The highlight of the property was, undoubtedly, the stunning lakefront location. The private dock was just a few steps away from the house, making it incredibly convenient for swimming, fishing, or simply basking in the sun.The outdoor space was equally impressive, featuring a spacious deck with comfortable seating and a grill, perfect for hosting barbecues with the family. The local area also offered plenty of grocery and retail stores that were within 15 min of the house. There is a Harris teeter grocery store that allowed for us to stock up on food for our stay. Lastly, I must commend Ryan for his exceptional hospitality. He was incredibly responsive and accommodating, ensuring that our stay was nothing short of perfect. His attention to detail and genuine care for his guests truly made a difference and left a lasting impression. If you're searching for a slice of heaven on the lake, this VRBO is an absolute gem. I highly recommend this lake house for an unforgettable retreat, where you can reconnect with nature, create beautiful memories, and experience pure bliss.

Amazon stay on Lake Norman. Highly recommend!!
10/10! I stayed at Ryan’s property and was absolutely floored by how amazing this property was. The house was recently converted to a short term vaca rental and it’s clear the Ryan is an expert host. Check in was smooth, the house was clean and the house instructions were clearly laid out. There was even a welcome gift. Highly recommend staying at this property if you’re in the area or for a family vacation
