Sweet Carolina

Wake up to wide-open Lake Norman views in this fully remodeled 5BR retreat built for gathering. Spend your days swimming off the massive covered dock, kayaking calm morning water, and competing in two game rooms. Evenings mean sunset dinners for 10, firepit nights, and stories in the bunk room. Sleeps 14 with a king lakeview suite, flat yard, blazing WiFi, and dining + groceries just 5 minutes away.

This is the kind of home where everyone finds their favorite spot — and keeps coming back to it.

The layout was thoughtfully designed for large groups. The kitchen anchors the main level with an oversized island that quickly becomes command central — pancake breakfasts, snack spreads before heading to the dock, or wine and appetizers while dinner simmers. Just steps away, the dining table comfortably seats ten, making shared meals feel effortless and connected.

Natural light pours in from the lake-facing windows, pulling your attention outdoors. The sunroom and expansive back patio offer front-row seats to open water views, with comfortable seating and a TV so you can relax without missing a thing. Coffee tastes better out here. So does everything else.

The primary king suite offers a quiet escape with peaceful lake views and a private ensuite bath. The bunk room sleeps six and was designed for fun — the kind of room where kids claim their beds immediately and adults secretly wish they called top bunk first. Additional guest rooms are equally inviting, each styled with comfort in mind so everyone sleeps well after full days outside.

And there’s no shortage of entertainment.

The main game room brings energy and competition with ping pong, foosball, cornhole, and a TV for tournament time. Upstairs above the garage, a second hangout loft with shuffleboard and a game table gives your group space to spread out — perfect for multi-generational stays or late-night rematches.

Outside, the flat yard makes moving between the house and water easy for all ages. The massive covered dock is the true centerpiece — shaded, spacious, and positioned for sweeping lake views. Swim in deep water, launch a kayak at sunrise, paddleboard in the afternoon calm, or simply sit and watch boats drift by.

As the sky turns gold, gather around the firepit, let conversations stretch a little longer, and settle into the rhythm of lake life.

With laundry on-site, blazing fast WiFi, and groceries and dining just five minutes down the peninsula, everything you need is close — but it’ll feel miles away.

This isn’t just a place to stay.
It’s where lake days turn into the stories you tell all year.

⏰ 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).

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