About this home

Lakeside Villa is a one-of-a-kind lakefront cabin made for easy days, big views, and memory-making. With a private pool, covered boat dock, two game rooms, massive multi-level decks, hardwood floors, and warm cabin charm throughout, this 3-bedroom, 5-bath home is perfect for families, groups, or couples looking for a cozy Lake Norman getaway.

Spend the day by the pool, paddle from the dock, grill on the deck, or settle in for games and lake views after a full day outside. This home is not a polished luxury estate—it’s a unique, comfortable, amenity-packed lake cabin with tons of character and room to relax.

Welcome to Lakeside Villa—a rare Lake Norman retreat with a private pool, TWO separate game rooms, covered dock access, and plenty of indoor and outdoor space to spread out. From the warm hardwood floors to the cabin-style details, the home has a cozy, lived-in feel that makes it easy to settle in and stay awhile.

The main living area features soaring ceilings, a decorative stone fireplace, and a full wall of windows overlooking the lake. The open layout flows into an updated kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a breakfast bar that’s perfect for morning coffee, snacks, or casual group meals.

Downstairs, the first game room offers a pool table and easy walk-out access to the pool deck. The second game room is a full entertainment hub with foosball, arcade basketball, Smart TVs, and more. There’s even heating and cooling in the game room to help keep everyone comfortable year-round.

Outside, it gets even better.
Multi-level decks wrap around the house with tons of space to lounge, grill, dine, or soak in the views. The pool, open May through September, is perfect for warm lake days, while the covered dock area offers calm-water access to paddleboards, kayaks, and all-day lake fun. A long set of stairs leads down to the dock, or you can take the gently sloped gravel path instead.

With drive-through boat/RV parking, a nearby boat launch, and proximity to Lake Norman State Park’s trails, Lakeside Villa is a great fit for water lovers, bikers, hikers, and anyone who wants a laid-back lake escape with plenty to do.

Managed with Care:
As local hosts, we’ve designed this home with care and comfort in mind. Every stay includes hotel-quality linens, toiletries, paper products, detergent, and coffee. You’ll enjoy spotless cleaning, keyless entry, and personal, fast communication with our team—so your stay is as smooth as the lake on a calm morning.

⚓ DOCK & LAKE FAQ
• Dock and water: Typical Summer (~10+ ft depth) Winter (~8+ ft). Ideal for swimming, fishing, and tying off pontoon or ski boats.
• Boat rentals: Boat rentals are available through Lake Girl Boat Rentals on Lake Norman. Contact info and booking recommendations are sent automatically once you book.
• Boat lift: The lift and covered slip is not available for boat docking - but there are cleats on the sides of the dock for use to tie up.
• Life jackets: We provide some universal life jackets, 1 paddleboard, and 2 kayaks. Please bring properly fitted USCG-approved vests for young children.

🕸️ Spider webs outside?
We de-web and treat docks and porches regularly, but spiders can rebuild a web in just 30–60 minutes. Lake life!

⏰ Can I check in early or check out late?
We already offer THE most favorable check-in/out times compared to other local companies. We follow our standard times to allow for proper cleaning. Requests may be available during the off-season, or if it's not a same day turnaround.

🔥 Is firewood provided?
No—but local grocery stores sell bundles right out front. Grab a lighter too, as they tend to disappear and we don’t stock them (liability).

🛋️ Can I use the indoor fireplaces?
Our indoor fireplaces are decorative and not intended for use. Again, a standard in our area for managers due to insurance and liability.

Great house with plenty of bathrooms, well stocked with shampoo, soaps, paper towels, bathroom paper, spices in kitchen. Home was clean and nicely decorated. Plenty of propane for the grill and fire pits. Lots of floats provided for the pool. Not a lot of boat traffic on this end of the lake and most boaters were very respectful of us kayakers. There are quite a few steps to the dock at this house and they are in the process of repairing some areas of those steps.Couple of tips for fellow travelers: there is not a kayak launch so we used bungee cords and attached the paddle board to the dock to use it as a launch. There are no chairs on the dock so you might want to bring your own fold up ones. There was not much for plastic leftover containers so you may want to bring some or storage bags for leftovers. Might want to bring your own plastic cups for drinks by the pool. None in the kitchen. Lake Norman State Park close by was great for hiking.

We had a wonderful stay at this Wishlist Vacations property! The home was clean, spacious, and perfectly equipped for our family. The location was convenient, the beds were comfortable, and we especially appreciated the thoughtful touches throughout. Communication with the host was prompt and helpful. We’d definitely book again and highly recommend it to others. Thank you!

Super cute cottage with fun additions to make it feel special. While the weather didn’t cooperate for us, which obviously was no one’s fault, the hosts offered a return discount so we could try again - so kind. Well stocked with pool toys and games and kitchen gear.
