About this property

Lakeside Retreat With Panoramic Views Like No Other

Our lakeside home is the perfect vacation spot for families. A bright spacious family room gives visitors a space to hang out, play games, or read. An extra table in the family room is the perfect spot for card games or extra seating at mealtime. A wall of windows allows for maximum sunlight and plenty of lake views. The kitchen has both a bar with seating for three and a dining area with a table for six. The bedrooms are spacious and living areas give plenty of room to spread out. The house sits on two lots and boasts a spacious backyard with a beautiful shade tree. There's plenty of room for the kids to play tag and the adults to sit and enjoy the lake or play a game of corn hole. Free wi-fi, a full kitchen, washer/ dryer, and a pier for sunning will be all your family needs to enjoy a quiet vacation in a homey atmosphere. There are also 4 kayaks for house guests. Lake Waccamaw is the perfect place to "get away" for a quiet retreat, and a change of scenery.

The PERFECT peaceful family getaway! The lake house was everything advertised and more with no details missed. The view is incredible and the lake breathtaking. Our family enjoyed swimming, kayaking and boating during our stay. The canals were amazing to see as well. My family can't wait to return for a longer stay. If you are looking for an incrediblely spacious and peaceful lakefront getaway this is a great property. We also had plenty of room to park out two vehicles and boats easily which is a major plus.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this charming home. Plenty of beds for our family of 8. We loved the view from the wall of windows in the living room. Lots of kayaks for everyone to enjoy, fishing off the pier, swimming and the tree swing were all a huge hit. A bonus was watching all the alligators in the waterway across the street...the kids loved it!Quotes from my kids as we prepared to leave today:"Mom, this is one of the best decisions you've ever made.""We should do this more often...at this exact place!"Thanks for helping us make some great memories!

Three generations of family had a fabulous time at the lake house. Our favorite part was the ease of getting into the water and having the kayaks in tip-top shape made the water play even more fun. The interior met our needs as well.

About the host

Hosted by Stone and Bailey Families

Host profile image
Growing up going to Lake Waccamaw holds many dear memories. We would stay at our grandparents' house and spend countless days on the lake fishing, boating, and tubing. We feel Lake Waccamaw is North Carolina's best-kept secret. With over 2,000 acres of state parkland, the lake has remained very residential with little to no commercial development. Four generations have enjoyed funfilled summers on the water.
