Lakefront Retreat-Watercraft/Fishing TwiTTy TiMe
Betsy, you have such a warm and cozy home! The boys loved the treats you left, thank you! We’ve enjoyed the peace and quiet and beautiful views. The disc golf was a fun game too. Everything was great!

Lakeside Landing by AvantStay | Private Dock
We had a wonderful time on our girls getaway. The house was incredibly spacious, providing plenty of room for everyone to relax and enjoy themselves. We especially loved the peaceful and quiet atmosphere - it was the perfect escape from our busy routines. Overall, a fantastic experience - we will definitely come back!

Peaceful Lake Wylie Waterfront Home! 8 Guests
Such a beautiful place with gorgeous views. So peaceful and quiet. Our family enjoyed the stay very much.

Private Lake Front Home w/ Dock + Spa *New Listing
Ok you have to stay here! The house is just lovely with beautiful vaulted ceilings, wood beams, bright sunlight filtering through the giant windows and skylights complete with beautiful views. It is designed to feel peaceful, stylish and comfortable. It literally has ALL the things to do and plenty of privacy. I can’t even list it all the amenities in the space given. To top it off the host Allison was beyond thoughtful! There was a little sign to welcome us and she left a cake to celebrate my husband’s birthday. Made us feel like we were staying in the home of close friends. Seriously just rent this one, you WILL love it!

Waterfront Pool Outdoor Kitchen Sauna BOAT AVAIL
A wonderful stay at Lake Norman. This house was a perfect location for an extended family getaway. It was exactly as described with beautiful views and the kayaks and paddle boards were a great perk. There were a couple maintenance issues while we were there but they were quickly addressed. That driveway is no joke, just as described!

Tranquility Cove - Beautiful Lakefront Apartment
Had an amazing stay. Was very peaceful and extremely clean. Felt great walking into the home.

Private Hideaway on Lake Norman
I had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The place was spotless and beautifully set up, making it feel like a home away from home. The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet, perfect for relaxing after a long day. It had everything I needed for a comfortable stay, from the essentials to thoughtful touches that made it feel extra special. Jeff, the host, was incredibly helpful and always quick to respond to any questions I had about the house. I highly recommend staying here – it’s a fantastic spot!

Lakefront Family Fun, New Gazebo, Toys Included!
Loch Norm Lair is beautiful and relaxing. Great neighborhood. Just the peaceful week we needed. Rick and Judy are extremely friendly. Rick loves to share his boat and will take you for a ride. We sat and talked with them on several occasions and shared a dinner at a restaurant. The place is well cared for and a great deal, very reasonable pricing. It was a shame the sailboat wasn't working, would have loved a ride. We are already talking about a return trip in warmer weather to fully enjoy the water. Thank you so much for the beautiful week. Debbie and Jim

Spacious 3BR Urban Oasis on Grandin Road
Great great great stay! Everything was perfect except the internet for my boyfriend! They got that fixed after a couple days though and no problems after that! Loved it would love to stay again!

Waterfront apartment near dt Davidson
Great weekend spent at Lore’s place. Pictures do not do it justice. Better than we expected. Very clean and everything you would need. The design of inside was beautiful. Every detail Lore has covered and more than you need. Will definitely be back again. Kudos to a wonderful place.

Waterfront Penthouse | Fun for Families&Long Stays
Great condo, spacious and beautiful view on the lake. Perfect for our family size and near a great coffee shop.

Stunning Lake Views-Private Bliss- 2 BR Apartment
I have used James many times now to lodge employees from Minnesota while attending training in the Charlotte area. All aspects of our interactions have been EXCELLENT! My employees request to stay there versus a hotel. The amenities, cleanliness, location, and peacefulness of the lake far out weigh anything a local hotel can offer. He's always the first place we look to book. 100% recommended.

Condo With A View
This apartment is spacious and comfortable. Nice view and patio. Quick drive to Davidson Main Street. Close to highway. Nice touches like plenty of coffee, tea, trial size toiletries. Wi-Fi worked great. Host responded quickly and I was happy that they didn’t proactively send us a ton of messages checking on us. I also liked that check out was just lock up and leave. No list of chores. 😅 We will stay here again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Lake-access cottage rentals

Sweet Surrender lakefront cabin w/stunning views
Stunning and peaceful. Such a beautiful oasis. My friend and I stayed one night and didn’t want to leave. The view from inside the cabin is also amazing. The hosts were so responsive and generous. Don’t hesitate to book here!

Serenity Cove lake house. Charlotte. Sleeps 8.
Serenity Cove was absolutely incredible! The pictures didn’t do it justice! It was the perfect place for a weekend getaway with some friends. The views were incredible and picturesque. The location was the best of both worlds being far enough from the city to feel like you’re tucked in your own little wonderland but still close enough in case you need to run to the store, go uptown or place a delivery order. The house is stocked with all sorts of things like cooking utensils and games and truly nothing beats just sitting and spending time on their amazing deck. I highly recommend for anyone looking for a spot for a getaway in the Charlotte area.

The Cottage on Lake Wylie
This home was a very peaceful location with abundant windows and views of the lake. Very private with comfortable beds and plentiful bathrooms for our family of four.

Rustic Charm Cottage Perfect Location
We enjoyed our visit! The cottage was cozy and close to restaurants and Lake Norman. Mooresville Downtown was quaint and fun - definitely will try and make it out again soon!

Sun-filled Lakefront Cottage Oasis
This place is absolutely beautiful, peaceful and just what our family needed. So grateful that we were able to bring our sweet dog too. Our son is way into fishing-the dock was exactly what we were looking for. LeeAnn is an incredible host, answered any and all questions and the place was exactly as she described. We already know that we will be back and can’t wait to plan our next visit.

Lake Norman Cottage, Lake Access included
This was the best airbnb we have stayed! Andrea was very accommodating, very personable. It was awesome staying at a place that embraces having your dogs with you. She made sure all I's were doted and T's crossed. We loved staying! Thank you Andrea for opening up your cottage to us! I look forward to meeting you someday in person! Blessings on your future endeavors! Love the Strieders!

Lake Wylie Retreat 3br/2ba
Provided space and amenities were just right for our 2 teens, German Shepherd, wife & me. We have family friends in the area, so we are likely to return to this listing. We might bring our own kayaks next time just to balance out our options and in case the pontoon boat isn't available. I will remain a smidge jealous of the kitchen when I get home. My height-challenged spouse might've appreciated a step-stool for some cabinets and for using the clothes-dryer. We appreciated the selection of board games during the rainiest days and that the home seemed to be free of manufactured scents (like scented candles, etc.). Turns out, the water off the dock will yield some fun catfish catches. Cast southward and let it sit about 2 to 3 feet under a bobber. We baited our hooks with doughballs blended with cheese, Italian dressing, & brown sugar. Caught 8 in total during the last 2 days of our stay.

Cozy cottage in quiet cove on LKN
We had a great time, wonderful space to have family gathering.
