About this property

Taylor Made for the Lake! With optional pontoon rental

Boating, swimming, kayaking, sunbathing and relaxing on our huge porch. There is so much to enjoy at our lake home that's perfect for multi-generational families.

We have a 2021 Suntracker tri-toon available to our guests as an additional rental. No more spending time picking up and returning a rental boat on a deadline. Have your boat waiting for you when you arrive. Take an early morning cruise or cruise for a dockside dinner. Inquire with homeowner for info and pricing

Our home is ideal for multiple families gathering to enjoy lakefront living at its best. Beautiful lake views can be seen from every room in the house. Renovations were made to the home in 2017, updating the bathrooms, flooring, HVAC's and kitchen appliances. We offer three bedrooms with attached baths and large closets. One suite is located on the main floor with a queen bed. The attached bath has a walk-in shower. There are 2 more suites upstairs both with attached baths. One is furnished with a king bed and the other has a queen. There is a bunk loft area with a twin over full that is ideal for children. We also offer a Pack & Play so you don't have to bring your own. Additionally, a queen sleeper sofa was added in January 2024 allowing us to sleep a total of 11 people. There is a designated workspace available if you must check in with the office.

Two large family rooms feature flat screen smart TV’s and plenty of seating. Yes, we have wifi! The upstairs family room has vaulted ceilings and a wall of windows offering expansive lake views. The cozy downstairs family room features two leather sofas and a recliner, with large windows overlooking the lake. The fully-stocked kitchen has seating at the bar area or room for eight at a large dining table. A new convection wall oven was installed in November of 2018 and the cooktop was replaced in 2021. Then in 2022 all new counters and backsplash was added. There is a large laundry room with washer and dryer available for your use.

Our home features a huge wrap-around deck with rocking chairs perfect for a relaxing afternoon under a canopy of trees or you can settle in on the outdoor sofa in the attached screened-in porch. The screened porch has a large farmhouse table to seat the whole family as well.

You can enjoy roasting marshmallows at the lake side fire pit or play a game of cornhole. Kids will love fishing off the dock or taking turns on the tree swing. We also have 2 kayaks for adults and 2 smaller ones for kids to go out and explore the cove. Kids of all ages love playing or sunbathing on our water mat. We keep a few life vests in the deck box for your use as well, especially for the little ones. There is always deep enough water at the pier to dock your boat. Better yet, rent our new Tri-toon with tube for pulling and have it waiting on you when you arrive.

Our home is ideally located to Mooresville and Huntersville for shopping and restaurants. We are less than an hour from both uptown Charlotte and Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord. There are several motorsport museums nearby and the Nascar Hall of Fame.

We take great pride in keeping our home clean for our guests and have been even more vigilant during this virus scare.

Maximum occupancy of the house is 10 adults. We do not allow parties and large groups. Any exceptions must be cleared in advance.

Communication from start to finish was excellent. Property has really cool character. Fire pit and dock area is terrific. We also rented the boat for the week. Highly recommend renting the boat. We had my in laws with us and they are a bit mobility challenged (walk with cane). There a several small steps in the house on the first level and many steps to get to the second level. That was the only set back to this property.

This was our second trip to the house and probably not our last. It’s a very comfortable place and well equipped all around. Especially for the group of foodies we are. Having access to the boat is a real bonus with a couple of decent restaurants on the lake. Tucans we’ve been to a number of times.

We had a great stay. The pictures represent the property well. The lake is deep enough to jump off the dock and not touch the bottom. There were plenty of water floats available and the house was well stocked with trash bags, toilet paper, etc. We would definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Cindy Bradley

Host profile image
Family property purchased in 1972. Over the years, the home has been enjoyed for 4 generations. The house was built in early 1990s as first a permanent residence, and now a vacation home. Our family has spent many summers at this special spot on Lake Norman and made memories that will last a lifetime.

Why they chose this property

We chose this property due to it very scenic location and the privacy we have. We are very secluded yet we are within a few miles of all of the restaurants, shops and grocery stores you would ever need. In addition a NEW shopping complex is currently under construction and will bring many other shopping and dining opportunities.

What makes this property unique

Our home is very roomy, clean, updated and sits in a quiet cove with an awesome view. We have a screened in porch as well as a large open deck. The lot slopes gently into the water and we have both a floating dock and stationary dock with benches. All in all this is the perfect lake home to get away from it all.
