Wonderful layout, excellent views, best location!!

We loved our stay! The dog-proofing on the fence was a life-saver. We will definitely rent again for many reasons but the courtyard with the dog-proof fence solidified our return!!

Great location, super apartment

Overall this was great. Was a little alarmed by all the rules etc but they were all very sensible. Only minor point is the 10 am departure time - could do with another hour - after a party of 12 for a week it felt ‘ sudden’

Great location

This condo is in a great location. We spent a day on the lake, a day at the races and another day just eating at all the great restaurants. Thank Bob for making it so easy and comfortable. The condo unit was clean and felt like home.

Relaxing vacation!

We enjoyed our stay! It has beautiful views from the patio. There are plenty of places to walk and jog. Shopping is nearby and Port City is a fun place to eat and hang out. TV's could be bigger and master bed could use a pillow top but I like soft beds. Easy access to Davidson, Charlotte and the race track!

Wedding weekend

The property has a lovely view of the lake and a nice patio area to sit and relax. Very well equipped kitchen and nice appliances. The guest bathroom could have been a little bigger but the master bedroom was spacious. We enjoyed our stay but to short. Parking can be a challenge.

Nice lake property

We had a very nice time at this property. Lots of room, and the lake views are wonderful. It's also nice to be able to walk next door for a very good meal. I would suggest an upgrade of the televisions. They are very dated, and we weren't even able to connect a laptop to watch a movie.

Lake Norman

We had a wonderful stay except the people above us were very noisy & some neighbors were not vet nice. We had stayed in the same community last year & it was better because the neighbors were nice & we didn't have people above us making all kinds of noise. Overall we had a great experience & we love the Cornelius area!

Great place to stay!

We loved our recent family vacation in this condo. Had never been to Lake Norman before. Just the right size for 6 of us (4 adults and 2 teens) Nice view of Lake Norman for our morning coffee on the patio. Comfy furniture for relaxing in the evening. Lots of laughs around the table during game night. Rented a pontoon boat and had breakfast out on the lake, just beautiful. What a wonderful place to reconnect as a family! Thanks Bob!

Great location

The location and condo is idea. The view of the lake and close to everything you most possibly need is within 5 to 10 mins. The unit above was a bit to unpleasant, whereas you can hear every foot step throughout the condo. It made it hard to focus when reading a book or wishing for a bit quietness.

Very nice!!

We traveled to visit my husband's mom in the same complex, with our 2 dogs. It was very clean & comfortable. The view of the lake beautiful & we caught a great sunset one evening. Weather was so rainy while we were there so we couldn't enjoy the pretty patio. The space is open concept, kitchen was very nice, but other than coffee & a light bite for breakfast, we didn't do any cooking. Used the washer/dryer which worked great. Living area spacious, large TV (roku) & separate dining area as well. Green space for dog walking right in front of unit. It is a great place for a larger group with the 3 BR, would definately recommend!

Family Time

My fiancé and I brought our children together for a family vacation for the first time! This condo was the perfect place! Great location! Very clean! Beautiful setting on lake Norman! Spacious! Fun decorations! Kitchen appeared to be updated! The stove cooked great! Nice patio out back with lake view! We'd definitely stay here again! Only two things that could have been better was: more wash rags (there were only about 3) and bigger screened tv's) but that wouldn't keep us from renting this condo again! We loved our three day get away on lake Norman! 😀

Love the Cornelius area!

We loved our week at this condo. The neighborhood is nice and close to so many stores and restaurants. Loved the boardwalk area to walk around. The restaurant, “Port City Club” was very nice. Working with Katie was a breeze and any question/issue we had was dealt with immediately. One of the best managers we’ve dealt with. You can tell that the owner had furnished their condo with quality items….too bad people don’t treat things like their own and properly care for them. People don’t seem clean the pots and pans properly in rental units for some reason. (Many stays in VRBO rentals). Who puts pans away with food still on them ?! The person after us had clean pans! 😉 The housekeeper did a good job cleaning the unit. One could not tell that pets are allowed, and we have a pet. Remember….housekeeping is to wash the floors, bathrooms, sheets/towels et-cetera in between guests. They are not meant to be our maids. 😉 It is impossible for them to check the cleanliness of everything in the kitchen before the next guest arrives. I always leave things the way I would like to find them…but that’s just me. You will not regret staying here! We hope to return in the future.

Awesome Property!

This place was amazing. Stayed here with family ( 4 adults and a nine month old). Great to walk around right in the lake and walking distance to a restaurant was super convenient. They even had a pack and play for the baby and an ice chest to use for our day outing in a rented boat. The snacks were a great little perk as well. Would definitely recommend this property!
