About this property

Lake Escape by AvantStay | Lakefront, Private Dock

Lake Escape is the perfect getaway to escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. You will not be disappointed with this 7-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom, 5,200 square foot home nestled on the banks of Lake Norman. The home accommodates up to 22 people, and features a home movie theater, game room, swimming pool, and private dock for swimming and water sports.

This stately, brick colonial-style home is nestled in the woods, on the banks of beautiful Lake Norman. The sprawling grounds and lush landscape give guests ample opportunity to enjoy the outdoors, and escape the stress of urban life without leaving behind any of the luxuries. Shady trees and rose bushes guide you up the drive toward plenty of open parking, a two-car garage, and a regulation size basketball hoop. The beautiful brickwork around the front doors welcomes you and hints at the beauty that awaits you at this Lake Norman luxury rental.

Step through the elegant brick arch that defines the entrance to your home away from home. You will find natural wood floors and a sparkling chandelier welcoming you inside. Vaulted ceilings in the entry draw you into the living room with full views of the lake right outside. Natural light flows in, creating an open and airy feel. This is the perfect space to unwind and connect with friends and family or to gather for after dinner drinks and share a laugh or two.

The open kitchen is fully equipped to handle any occasion, whether it's an elaborate holiday feast or simply feeding a growing family and keeping the kitchen stocked with all their favorite drinks and snacks – you have all the space you need. A Keurig and drip coffee maker are available for each guest to prepare their favorite cup of Joe! The kitchen table and counter also offer the perfect space for your everyday meals, quick snacks, and breakfasts. The adjacent dining room is great for sit-down family style dinners, but it is elegantly furnished, making it the perfect setting for even the fanciest occasions.

If you head downstairs, you will be thrilled to discover a game room so spacious it could practically be an additional home – complete with adjoining bedrooms and another full kitchen! The downstairs boasts a living room perfect for playing board games, puzzles, or cards, and even a full-sized shuffleboard and foosball table. The extra kitchen is great for whipping up snacks and can serve as the perfect bar for entertaining.

One of the defining features of this home is the in-home theater just to the side of the game room. The luxury theater has a state of the art sound system, gaming console and plush leather recliners perfect for losing yourself in your favorite flick. Branching out from the game room are two additional bedrooms: one bunk room perfect for the kids with two bunk beds, and another cozy bedroom with a king bed and direct bathroom access.

Head upstairs to find a hidden loft sitting area with a TV, great for reading or getting some quiet time. Luxurious sleeping areas branch off down the hall, featuring large plush bedding and pillows for restful sleep, stylish furnishings that give you plenty of room to unpack, and bathrooms with beautifully updated fixtures. You will feel right at home and have the luxury you need to feel relaxed and pampered. The master bedroom is particularly stunning, with a comfortable king-sized bed and master bathroom featuring his-and-hers sinks and walk-in style shower with dual shower heads all designed around a magnificent garden tub.

Outside, you'll find a large patio that extends from the game room to the pool with plenty of extra seating and a bar just outside the back door. Upstairs, there is a full-length deck that connects to the kitchen and living room and is furnished with outdoor sofas as well as a dining area overlooking the pool and lake. One of the few Lake Norman rental properties with a pool, this home is sure to be a hit with the family. Additional outdoor games are provided, including corn hole and giant Connect Four. The pool area has a full sized outdoor kitchen with built-in BBQ, perfect for summer entertaining and keeping snacks and ice-cold drinks right in the middle of the fun. On a slightly more secluded side deck, you will find a built-in bonfire pit (wood provided) for when the sun goes down. Your family can stay warm and recap the day's fun over classic S'mores.

The whole property is on the water's edge, which, of course, is complete with its own private dock. The upper dock provides additional space for relaxing and entertaining. The lower one features access to swimming, and plenty of space to lie out and get some sun. You can bring your own boat(s), and/or jet skis. Conveniently located on the dock are all of the fun lake toys which include: a kayak, a paddle board, and an assortment of life jackets. Remember, Lake Norman has no restrictions, so it is perfect for extreme water sports like water skis and wakeboards! Your private dock is large enough to accommodate several watercraft, so you can take advantage of our multiple day rentals and keep your toys close at hand.

AvantStay provides an upscale experience with services that elevate your stay and save time so you can enjoy every moment. Guests have access to a 24/7 support team and a tech-enabled concierge to book services, such as fridge stocking, mid-stay cleanings, and private chefs. For anything you need (or never knew you needed), we’re at your service!

Discover the allure of Lake Norman, a haven nestled in the heart of North Carolina. With its idyllic atmosphere, this destination offers the perfect blend of tranquility and excitement. Whether you're here for a laid-back escape or outdoor adventures, you'll have dozens of options to keep you relaxed and entertained. Spend lazy days by the shimmering waters, or venture into the charming lakeside towns, where quaint boutiques and local eateries are waiting with unique finds and new experiences. For the outdoor enthusiast, there's an array of water activities, from paddleboarding under the vast sky to exhilarating boat rides against the backdrop of scenic hills. Whether you seek relaxation or adventure, Lake Norman promises an unforgettable retreat, making your stay here truly exceptional.

Celebrating Oma and Life!
Our family of 17, ranging in ages 10-75, gathered to celebrate a variety of recent family milestones--graduations, birthdays, business success, and the 75th birthday of mom/oma. We all love the water and have vacationed on Lake Norman together at least a dozen times. The swimming pool was a wonderful addition, as were the boat and jet ski rentals. The company's we used were recommended by the property management company and each were delightful to work with--excellent customer service from those rental companies. We fished, swam, went tubing, and took full advantage of the lake and its amenities. The outdoor space was awesome. The house is lovely, but in need of attention on several levels. There was ample sleep space--although mattress comfort varied from OK to uncomfortable. The theater room was much loved by the teens and younger family members. Communication with the property management company left much to be desired once we arrived on site. That aspect of the experience was very disappointing. There were a number of issues that existed upon our arrival and were brought to the attention of the property management company very soon after our arrival. A workman was begrudgingly sent over on our day of arrival after over an hour of texting with someone on staff. A follow-up email sent about other persistent issues the next morning and again on day 5, that received no response until the day before our departure from the week's stay.

Plenty of trash cans on property but they were already completely full by the time we checked in. For the price of the rental, this issue shouldn’t have to be on guests to haul off their trash because the receptacles weren’t empty. Would recommend this property in the future

Quiet, peaceful with easy access to the lake.
We enjoyed our week. I would say, the property certainly takes a beating and is need of some repairs especially for the cost of the weekly rental. My one frustration was their "noise" system which malfunctioned one night and I kept getting text messages at 11:30 pm & 11:48 pm saying we were making too much noise while we were already in bed. We then got another notification the last night when everyone in the neighborhood was setting off fireworks and having a party. So, that needs looked into. I wasn't prepared for the amount of snakes in the evenings in the front of the house, just wish I would have been made aware that they aren't poisonous.

A Lovely, Luxurious Lake Stay
This was our first time choosing a lake vacation versus a beach, and we all loved our experience! The lake was BEAUTIFUL, warm, and a great time. The house fit our family so well, was really well stocked with everything we needed, had a really fun lily pad to hang out on at the dock, and the location was fabulous. The management company was great to work with. There were a couple minor things that were addressed immediately. They were very responsive. We all recommended this vacation to our friends. We enjoyed ourselves immensely.

Needs work
We were so happy to be together but there were a number of issues with this property. When we checked in, the access code was incorrect. The carpets on all levels is terribly dirty, disgusting really. There are carpenter bees that are on the deck that should be treated. They scared the children and are damaging the wood. There is also wood rot at the double doors to the deck that will someday give way. The lack of a stove vent meant that the smoke detector went off without warning or need. The upper stove and cook top need to be adjusted. The system for monitoring noise sent a warning the first night when there were only two 70+ year olds in the house, not watching tv, not listening to music. No noise at all going on! We had to get help with the TV, but that was dealt with fairly quickly. Pool is very cold.

A great place to stay and relax
The house was amazing and exactly what we were hoping for. The property manager was always checking in to see if we were ok. The kitchen had everything labeled where things were and it was helpful. The remotes for the TV were all placed in different rooms and not labeled, labeling would have helped. I do not think the neighbors like that this is a rental property. The last night we were there, some of my guest were listening to music in the basement with all windows and doors closed. Despite people sleeping upstairs and watching tv on the first floor undisturbed, there was still a noise complaint about us. I dont believe it was even too loud in the basement.

Great Christmas visit!
We enjoyed our stay, everything was great (minus a some dirty pots and pans we had to wash before use). I can’t say enough great things about Morgan (and the team) and now responsive she was to our few requests. It was odd that there is no vent hood or cooking ventilation at all but we didn’t ask about it while we were there and it wasn’t a huge issue. Movie room is VERY well done, we enjoyed movies and video games in there! We also had some nice weather so we appreciated the deck furniture being out and it was all in great condition. We would love to return in the summer to enjoy more of the warm weather features- pool, lake, games, etc.

Family Thanksgiving at the Lake
The home was great, accommodating for the 20 of us and furnished with all our needs. The only thing that we couldn't find was an iron. I notified Morgan and immediately an ron was literally on our doorstep within the hour! Overall, my family loved the house, location and the game room was a big hit. The two kitchens were a plus as we had several people preparing a Thanksgiving feast and no one was in the way of the other, especially with the double ovens in the main kitchen. More than enough cooking supplies and utensils than we could imagine. They even had a funnel, which came in handy! Thanks for hosting and look forward to visiting again.
