The home was close to the dock as stated, great for fishing. The place was a bit outdated, lighting was not good in the main living areas, the bedroom situation on the upper floor says two double beds, it’s not, it’s two twins so we had one adult couple who had to sleep separate. It’s really only good for two couples and the rest are singles with the bottom bedroom having two twin bunks and that room is where the washer and dryer are so it’s a bit noisy. Overall nice stay but too small for our larger adult family who have significant others. The WiFi was good, kitchen was adequate with plenty of dish ware and cookware. Ample parking.

We had a wonderful stay with our family of 5 in a very fun log cabin! The kids loved the layout and we all loved the decor! Amazing location on the lake and the dock was great. We enjoyed the kayaks too! It was a perfect inlet to use them in. The only negative was the lack of water pressure which I’m sure is common in the area. Overall it was a great stay at Lake Norman!

We enjoyed our week at the lake in this charming Adirondack style cabin. The host was responsive to our inquiries, the view of the lake is lovely, and sunrises beautiful. Perhaps because we stayed before the full summer season had started, the place was not as clean as I expected. The stovetop in the kitchen and outside tables and chairs were not cleaned. We stayed in this house once before about 4 years ago and this was not the case, but it was later in the summer when there were probably regular renters every week and more regular cleaning. Overall, we had a great week.

When we arrived at the property we knew we were in for a great stay. The property was well kept inside and out. Everything we needed for the stay was there. The beds were comfortable, bathrooms well stocked and all the kitchen items we could have asked for. It was the perfect location to host our youngest son’s wedding. The addition of the lake amenities was a huge hit. If you’re looking for a quiet getaway this is the place with plenty of rustic charm. We will return in the future.

Peaceful Beauty

Such a nice cabin located near many conveniences but far enough that the night isn't disturbed by bright lights and big city sounds. Lots of fun games to play and plenty of room for groups to come enjoy time together. The dogs enjoyed running around the huge back yard. Comfortable beds and very clean.

Peaceful retreat

We rented to celebrate 5 birthdays. It was a wonderful stay in a peaceful location. There was lots to do on the lake. One small problem was that there were no food items like salt and pepper or cooking spray there. Other than that, it was a wonderful week.

Family from 3 states gathered for 80th birthday

We chose Lake Norman as a central location for relatives gathering from SC, GA, & MD. This property was perfect! The neighborhood and neighbors were great, there were stores close by, and the lake was beautiful. The home was clean and well-stocked. We had a wonderful time and the owner was wonderful. The only differences were that it really sleeps 10, not 12 (the one room is 2 twins and there is no futon), and the lower level gas fireplace is not hooked up. The shower heads need replacing, but honestly not the biggest deal. Really the property was even better in person than we expected. Highly recommend!!

Stormy Easter Weekend

Easter 2023 had high winds and pouring rain all weekend so we were not able to use the water front. The house has a well stocked kitchen for cooking, tv and internet worked well, comfy beds and lots of games to entertain us. Be sure to bring some water because house in on a well. Publix supermarket is only 5 minutes away and a very nice store. Home has lots of character, finding the right light switch was fun exercise for us. Wish we had nicer weather to fish and play in the cove, but maybe next time. Owner was easy to reach and work with. We did day trips to local sights and shops. We ate at Lineberger's while were there as well.

Great location on Lake Norman

I recently returned from my vacation with my children and grandchildren on Lake Norman. There were a total of ten of us. We rented this property because of its unique look, lake location, and that it could accommodate a large group such as ours. The property location is great and good for swimming, boating, and fishing. The area is surrounded with beautiful homes, and we took walks and met some of the neighbors which were very friendly. This home sits on a nice part of the lake with a quiet cove on one side, and open water on the other. The view from the kitchen window is outstanding, however the house needs a good cleaning, and maintenance and we also found the dock to be in need of repair.
Response from VrboOwner on 23 Mar 2020
Thank you for the review. Cleaning Service provides a 100% guarantee and if I am contacted upon check in about anything needing attention I will have the cleaners return immediately. I have repaired the upper deck railing. Younger renters have a habit of diving from this railing and doing so is destructive as it loosens the railings. I have overhauled both motors on the Jet Ski Lifts this week of July 29th and installed new covers and belts. All lifts are in great working order. I have also installed a new washer/dryer this week.

Cozy, unique property

This is a unique property in that it is a true log cabin. The space is a little tight in places with the upstairs bedrooms being attic rooms and the furniture being a bit oversized, but there is a cozy feel about it. If your expecting something brand new and boujee, this house is not for you. This is more of a down-home cozy place where you can relax and feel at home. It appears to have been built in the 90's and still has the original bathrooms and kitchen. The countertops have been upgraded and the finished basement with a bar seems newer and is pretty nice. Our main thing is boating and fishing so this house was perfect for us. Our rented pontoon was easy to park on the dock, and the fishing from the upper deck of the dock was incredible. Big catfish, blue gill, and a couple bass right there. All of our kids caught several fish and they had the best time. On the last day we had a fire in the fire pit and did a fish fry on the grill. It was a great time.

Lake Norman mountain style cabin

My family spent five days over Thanksgiving weekend & enjoyed the house very much. The sunrise over the lake was beautiful. My grandson fished off of the dock & caught & released a large bass. I fell in love with the rustic style furniture...there's a book with pictures & information on it. The kitchen & dining area is roomy & we were able to seat everyone together. The downstairs bar with ice-maker was really nice. Unfortunately, we were unable to get the fireplace to work. My only criticism is the carpet.....fortunately, there's mostly hardwood & slate floors...., was stained & a couple of cooking appliances previous renters had been negligent in cleaning. I addressed these issues with the owner & he was going to correct them. Overall, it's a wonderful house & the location is great. Plenty of parking & close to lots of stores....including my personal favorite; The Fresh Market. The house offers lots of good things & very few negatives. It would be helpful to have a notebook of how fireplaces, wifi, TV's, etc, work.
Response from VrboOwner on 23 Mar 2020
Thank you Nancy for your review. Carpets are on the schedule for change out in Springtime before 2014 Summer season and I change these every 3 years and have professionally cleaned twice a year. Great advise on the instructions for wifi, TV's and fireplace! I will include in the email instructions I send like to arrivals so future renters can print out and have available. I have also asked cleaners to carefully go through all cooking items that are put back in the cabinets on their checklist going forward.

About the host

Hosted by Martin Lee

Host profile image
My family and lived locally for over 8 years and still consider this beautiful home our second home now as we visit there occasionally from my current residence in Houston TX. We purchased this home as a Vacation Home on Lake Norman and found its combination of mountain log with main channel lake view appeal unique and like nothing else I had found in over a year of searching for the ideal retreat. Unlike most vacation rentals on the lake this home was built specifically to be a Vacation Home and this is immediately obvious as your walk through the doors. Enjoy your stay. We want you to return!!

Why they chose this property

I consider myself fortunate to have lived in the Lake Norman area for a number of years and I always look forward to return visits there. As one of the largest lakes in the south east Lake Norman is truly a wonderful place to vacation and as some of my previous guests have discovered a compelling place to consider returning to again and again! In fact I have a couple guests who have now retired to the area as a result of their experience staying in my Log Home and soaking up the atmosphere of Lake Norman and the surrounding areas.

What makes this property unique

- The intimate Master Suite.
- Breakfast on the upper-level balcony.
- Sunset drinks on the elevated boat deck.
- The warmth of natural Log surroundings and the cozy fireplaces.
- Evening walks in the surrounding neighborhood which is private and full of interesting homes.
- The incredible fire pit and patio
- Boat and Jet-Ski Lifts
- Looking forward to the next visit!
