Overall stay was enjoyable. The house was clean and the bed was comfortable.The owners guided us to a boat rental place so our days were on the water for relaxing and fishing. We would stay here again.

We stayed for 2 weeks and the property is nice but the beds and furniture were uncomfortable/worn out. The basement smelled musty and the bathrooms weren’t clean. The listing says swimming but there is no way to swim from this property because the dock is in poor repair and the swim ladder wasn’t there. (Most of the listed pictures are of the neighbor’s dock). There were fish hooks with bait hanging down from the ceiling of the covered deck and one on the carpet. Luckily we found it before the baby stepped on it.On a positive note, the outside space was very nice and the fenced area was perfect for our dog. And the owners were responsive. Overall the property was just okay but we expected better for the price.

Wonderful stay at Lake Norman

Great house in a quiet, well-located home on the lake. Big kitchen with spacious bedrooms and layout for the 4 of us. We had an extra room. Easy to drive to and plenty of parking. We loved the outside screened-in room.

Refuge from the storm

The house provided a beautiful place to rest and recharge for several family members displaced by Hurricane Helene. There was plenty of space for five adults and three dogs. Turi & Steve were understanding and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend this home.

Lake norman

We loved the house and how it was laid out. It worked perfectly for us. The outside areas were also great, including the fenced in yard for the dogs. The only issue is the dock needs to be repaired. It is dangerous.

Great relaxing time in Lake Norman

We had a great time at Paradise Found! We stayed for the month of March to follow our 2 College Lacrosse Goalies (1 in South Carolina and 1 in North Carolina). It was perfectly located between the two! The house has so many great places to relax and enjoy views of the lake. Everything was very clean and well appointed. We had several family members join us over the month and everyone was comfortable! We even got a bit of fishing in too! Turi and Steve were great hosts as well. We highly recommend Paradise Found!

Family vacation

We were happy to find a location that was clean inside and in a good neighborhood. Some things that didn’t work well for our two week stay were the unsafe dock for our boating and swimming. The maintenance to the screened in porch shown in the pictures of the property is needed, the screen has completely detached from the structure and blows open allowing mosquitos to enter when sitting outside.

Lake Norman rental 10/9 thru 10/14

Nice house. Plumbing was noisy but worked. Unstable dining room table leaves were a concern. On the other hand, the tranquil location, generous outdoor spaces (especially the screened deck) and fenced in back yard were much appreciated. Overall, it was a pleasant experience.

Not designed for large groups

Nice house but an odd layout. Not designed for large groups. There were 6 of us in our group and the only room that we could set together comfortably was in the basement.

Property and location were great! If you go in the summer, the thermostat doesn’t go below 70 so it can get a little toasty. Otherwise, this house had everything we needed for a family gathering! The outdoor spaces were lovely.

Wonderful!

This house was just wonderful! It was spacious and clean and the neighborhood was very quiet. There were so many places to sit in the morning and enjoy a cup of coffee and view the LAke. Our only complaint is that we were in town for a wedding and didn’t get to enjoy the house as much as we would have liked! Such a great experience!

Lots of room!

Every family got a room to stay in. We had fires outside to roast hot dogs and make s’mores. The kids fished everyday off dock. We will keep in mind when we all vacation together.

Fireworks & Relaxation

The house is in a terrific location. The cove is quiet and wonderful. The marina is a very short boat ride. The outdoor seating was great and we enjoyed it every morning and evening. Great location to find a spot and watch fireworks. We spent the majority of our time outside and on the water. I highly recommend Pomodoro’s Italian restaurant, delicious. Renata was great to communicate with, provided all the details to the house, where to launch our boat and local recommendations.

Wonderful home on the lake!

We had an awesome stay! The house was very clean and supplied all we needed for an extended Memorial Day weekend. There was plenty of room to gather as a group or spend quiet time relaxing and reading in the many nice sitting areas. The house is in a private area but very close to shopping and restaurants. The neighbors were very friendly. There was so much to do on the lake! We boated, kayaked, fished, and swam during the day and spent time around the fire pit in the evenings. We didn’t want our stay to end! I highly recommend this wonderful home!
