About this property
Waterfront House on Quiet Cove with kayaks, canoe, paddleboard, game room & more
Great quiet family getaway for swimming, fishing, paddling, boating and wildlife viewing. House has four bedrooms, 3.5 baths, whirlpool tub, two decks, screened-in porch, fenced-in play area, dock and walkout basement game room with ping pong table, foosball table and other games. There is a large, well-stocked kitchen that is open to the dining area and living area.
House is located on a peninsula with 270 degree water views. There are decks with views of the water on both the front and back sides of the house. We like to enjoy our morning coffee in the shade on the front porch and have dinner in the shade on a large outdoor table on the back porch.
Two kayaks, one canoe, a paddle board, a private dock, a neighborhood boat ramp, and various outdoor games are available for use by guests.
The cove where the house and dock are located is very quiet. One of our favorite morning and evening activities is to paddle back into two adjoining undeveloped coves that are teaming with wildlife. There is a county park on the opposite side of the cove on the front side of the house, which has a playground, hiking trails and mountain bike trails.
If you are looking for a quiet vacation spot, this is a great house for you. If you are looking for a place to party into the wee hours of the night, this is not a good choice. The neighbors are generally quiet and go to sleep early. Because sound travels far on a quiet cove, the neighbors will complain and you feel unwelcome if there is a lot of noise or cars coming in and out late at night. Furthermore, the house has original artwork, upholstered furniture, and rugs that are easy to damage if you have a wild party.
Because the house is in a rural location and is frequently vacant, there are two outdoor security cameras that point away from the house. There is a Ring doorbell, which is pointed toward the road and there is a security camera on the south corner of the house pointed toward the driveway.

About the host
Hosted by Rick Gaskins
We've traveled the world, most recently living in France for a year and traveling to Alaska for two months, but Lake Norman remains one of our favorite places to get away from the hectic pressures of daily life.
Why they chose this property
This property is great for all types of water-related activities, particularly kayaking, fishing and wildlife viewing. The cove where the house is located is very quiet and our favorite activity is to take an early morning paddle back into the next two coves, which are undeveloped, full of wildlife and surrounded by a county park with playground, athletic fields, walking trails and mountain bike trails.
The house has plenty of room for a large family including 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, large game room in the walkout basement, a dock, a fenced-in play area, 2 decks and a screened-in porch.
There are two kayaks, a canoe and a paddleboard available for the use of the guests.
If you want a powerboat, there are many places to rent a boat in the area, and there is plenty of room to tie up multiple boats at the dock. There is also a paved neighborhood boat ramp that guests may use if they want to bring their own boat.

What makes this property unique
The house has a well-stocked kitchen (we like to cook), a whirlpool tub in the master bedroom, water toys, and plenty of books, indoor games (ping pong, foosball and various board games) and outdoor games (Bocci, cornhole, horse shoes) to enjoy. If you are looking for a little more excitement, there are various activities on Lake Norman, lots of shopping near along Hwy 150, various NASCAR related activities, and a full-range of museums and big-city activities in Charlotte.
