We had a lovely, quiet stay while moving our daughter into college. Nearby downtown Belmont is charming. We hope to return to this property as it was a perfect fit for your family of six.
Awesome Stay !! .. stayed for 3 nights and the place was perfect. Very clean and comfortable. Everything you could possibly need was there. Plenty of yard to walk your dogs and very quiet , and safe neighborhood. Lots of stores and restaurants in short driving distance. Will definitely stay here again
Nice place, clean, responsive host. Overall pleasant experience.

Nice home but safety hazard & avoidable issues/poor handling by owner dampened our stay.The property advertises having a bunk bed but the top bunk is not safe to sleep on. Half of the ceiling fan hovers over the top bunk with little clearance. No one, not even a small child can peacefully sleep up there without worrying about hitting or worse, being hit by the ceiling fan blades. My daughter was looking forward to sleeping on the top bunk so obviously she was disappointed. The tv in the master bedroom did not work. Seems like a simple thing to catch if a routine pre-check was done. Also, the front and back door windows have no shades or blinds which is odd and somewhat creepy considering how dark the area is at night & easy for anyone outside to have a clear view inside the place.I reached out to the property manager, Skylar, who was apologetic & SHE offered a 25% refund upon approval from owners. I didn’t hear back from anyone so I reached out the following week only to be told “Unfortunately, at this time, we are unable to offer a refund.” Very disappointing.
Great private place on a quiet street. We really enjoyed our stay here and appreciated the great communication of the hosts. We did have trouble with the bathroom and bunk bedrooms doors closing as the floor is uneven. Loved having two patios to enjoy!
Convenient and Very lovely place to stay while doing a lot in the area.
I thought it was very charming and completely equipped for whatever you wanted to cook, place to relax, Just sitting outside on the back deck was really nice. I would highly recommend.
What a great place to stay!
All the amenities you need in a home, lots of nice dishes, pots and pans so you can cook those great meals for your family. Just down the street is a fantastic park for kids, dogs and family fun.
All shopping you need is close by.
Would stay again.
We really enjoyed our stay and the owner had amazing communication! Very clean and nice house. Beds were very comfortable, great water pressure in shower, everything worked great! Nice back yard, quiet area, just all around a great house. Thank you!!
Lovely clean home, literally had everything we needed i mean everything. Peaceful private lovely porch amazing bird sounds. Great beds.
Close to everything you need! Definitely we will come back
This place was really nice and close to Whitewater.org where we spent our time. It was close to Belmont which had lots of good dining options. It would have been nice to have some local info at the house recommending things to do and places to eat.
We almost had to call the property manager since the bathroom door was locked shut, but we managed to get it open!
This is a sweet little home that has been beautifully restored. Fully stocked kitchen and supplies. New appliances (including washer/dryer). Comfortable living room furniture/beds. On a very quiet street. Less than 1/4 mile from Tuckaseegee park with lovely walking trails and a dog park. Quaint little Brook runs through large back yard. Nice porch and deck. Powerful WiFi. Great experience.
Our stay was 4 nights. Lots to like about this home. Immaculate and beautifully decorated. Fluffy towels, nice soap dispensers, extras in the kitchen and more, added to the experience. Washer and dryer was a bonus and much appreciated. The queen bed is one of the most comfortable we have ever slept on. Quiet area, even with new homes being built nearby. No noise issues at all. With a busy, schedule, we enjoyed at least one nice quiet evening on the front porch. The Manager was quick to respond to any questions. There is easy access to Mount Holly, Belmont, and Charlotte. The only bothersome issue for us was that if an early check in or late checkout is needed, there is a $100 charge for each. We understand the time crunch to prepare the home between guests, but would have appreciated a more flexible approach. In summary, great home, highly recommend and would stay here again.
We had everything we needed and lots of extras... very comfortable . Close to a lot of places. A very good visit.
