About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Beautiful, custom Kerr Lake lodge home + private dock.

Even cool Spring nights are beautiful at the lake, especially with a fantastic stone fireplace inside and a solo stove outside. Cozy up in this wonderful retreat or take to the water in a kayak!

Get away from it all in this custom-built, gorgeous, secluded lake house just 45 minutes north of Durham, NC! Beautifully decorated and spacious 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom house to entertain your friends and family; well-appointed kitchen and an outdoor gas grill to enjoy preparing meals for indoor or outdoor dining.

Outdoor spaces include a front porch with rockers and swing, a rear screened porch, a patio with cafe seating and umbrella, an outdoor dining table with umbrella, and a pergola patio with cushioned rockers.

Head out for kayaking/paddle boarding, fishing, playing in the water, or simply enjoy drinks and meals on the dock. The property is located on a super safe, quiet finger of the lake with beautiful views, but few boaters, which means the dock is calm and delightful. There is a dock ladder and bench that allows for easy lake access, perfect for swimming and launching paddle boards and floats.

Launch your own boat or jet ski at the nearby & easily accessible Nutbush Bridge Road (south public boat launch) within view from our dock, then dock your watercraft at our property. Or, use the kayaks and paddle boards conveniently stored at our dock. We are located south of Nutbush Bridge Road, which is flat water for easy paddling.

All of our guest love their time in this spectacular lake house, and you will too!

Amazing House and property
The house was amazing every square inch was absolutely beautiful and awesome and the pictures do not tell the whole story you have to see it for yourself. The privacy was a huge plus for us especially the private dock we stayed 4 days and 3 nights and we all enjoyed every minute of it. Everything you need is on site just pack a bag and show up the owners were really great with communicating with me prior to checking in and while we there if any problem or issues came up we will definitely be making this our number one choice to stay when we need another lake getaway

Amazing Stay
The house is amazing, it is exactly as it pictures. We had three couples with kids and everyone had enough space and privacy. Would love to stay again if we go back to this area. Hosts are very responsive to any questions we had.

Lakehouse in Henderson, NC
Property is very nice as is the home, very scenic; the one draw-back of the home is the weak internet access which limits our ability to stay and work virtually. The town of Henderson was not to our liking and falls short of options and things to do.

Calm, Beautiful, Relaxing
You will not be disappointed! AMAZING! This was a time to get (most of) our children together with their spouses, us and Grandma. The hosts were so helpful and provided everything we could possibly need. We love that we did not have to bring linens. Everything was there for us - even lake/beach towels (although, we never saw them until we were packing up to leave). The home is exquisitely decorated, the beds were very comfortable (and plentiful), and the kitchen could not have been better stocked. There were so many quiet spots in the home to enjoy a good book in. Internet was not great, but that was not what we were there for, so it was not an issue for us. There is one tv in the home, so keep that in mind. It worked for us, as Grandma was the only one who wanted to watch tv anyway. Outside, we loved the dock. It is where we spent our days either reading or on the water. The water is like glass and had almost no boat traffic. We brought our jet skis and used them every day. There were a couple of spots on this part of the lake that were very shallow, so be careful on a jet ski or boat. We did get caught in mud once, only because we weren't paying attention to our depth finder on our skis. Twice we travelled beyond the Nutbush bridge to the "big" side of the lake. It is gorgeous as well. The available paddle boards were so nice to explore the coves. Everything was incredible. We will be back for sure!

FANTASTIC!
This home was by far the best VRBO home we have ever stayed in! The description is 100 % accurate. The home is big with very large bedrooms and a great living space. The kitchen had more than enough plates and mugs and wine glasses! Every small appliance possible was there and in working order. The screen porch and fire ring were nice spaces to hang out. Now for the lake and dock - the water was very deep so the kids wore life jackets and had SO MUCH FUN jumping and diving. The dock has a great ladder and also lower level that makes it easy to get in on the supplied paddle boards and kayaks. There is a roof and umbrella on the table so plenty of shade is available. The abundance of extra floats and life jackets was a bonus! All in all, an awesome trip and we’ll be sure to be back! Also, there were a lot of extra nice touches by the owners to welcome their guests:)

Awesome Rental by the lake
We highly recommend this rental lake property. Owners were quick with responses to all our questions before and during our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed the house and it's seclusion in the trees. The home is very tastefully decorated and we didn't need anything. Many items were cruelty free and we are vegan so that is an added plus! The kitchen has beyond what any home chef desires and more. There's one TV which we hooked up our Roku but honestly spent most of our time at the lake, talking and playing games (many to choose from). The WiFi is ok and I hooked up a CAT6 for work. The bedrooms are so beautifully decorated and has that cozy comfy feeling. We recommend you fully read the guest book as the music over the home speakers via your phone was so awesome and connected to indoor and outdoor speakers - what a treat and created an even better experience. The short walk down to the dock was nice and appreciate the chairs and table for sitting and eating. The chair cushions were located in the dock box and easy to pull out and put back when we left. The view of the lake at sunrise was stunning and so very relaxing. There's a latter for swimming too. We didn't utilize the kayaks or paddle boards but are available. We used Instacart and Door Dash and added that GPS goes beyond the house but to look for the house number sign on the right and it worked fine. We will definitely be renting this property again! Thanks Stacie for a much needed restful time for my family.

Perfection on the lake
As the first guests at this property we didn't know exactly what to expect, but this one blew us away! The location is private and secluded but within a quick 10 minute drive to anything you could need in Henderson. Not that you'll need to go to town for much because the extremely responsive hosts thought of everything you could possibly need to have a great time by the lake! The house itself is truly wonderful - you can tell a lot of care went into designing, building, and maintaining it and each room is special in its own way. The kids room was a real hit for my four nieces and nephews and we had more than enough space in the other four large bedrooms for the adults. The outdoor spaces are lovely as well from the large front porch to the well furnished screened deck and stone patios. Don't forget the large second floor deck overlooking the lake from the upstairs master bedroom! The real magic happened down at the water where the large, covered dock provided hours of fun for our whole family. The water was surprisingly warm and more than deep enough for intense cannonball competitions! We also made good use of the available paddle boards and kayaks to explore the shorelines. The table & chairs made it easy to eat lunch by the water & jump right back in. With very few other properties in the area and low boat traffic it felt like a private lakefront just for our family. We would love to come back again...and if you are thinking about booking this one - don't wait, just do it!
