About this property
Lake Escape's Cottage on the Cove
On a quiet, nearly private cove in Terrell, NC is Lake Escape's Cottage on the Cove, a completely renovated lakefront home on Lake Norman. Beautifully landscaped 3 Bedroom ranch, with open concept Kitchen, dining, living room. The front porch is a great place to laze away the days with a cool breeze coming off the lake. The finished garage is heated and cooled and is loaded with games and space to get out of the heat or rain or just spend an evening hanging with the family away from a TV.
The Kitchen / Dining area features white quartz countertops, tiled backsplash, and stainless appliances. We have fully equipped it with quality pots, pans, flatware, dishes, serving ware, utensils, and small appliances. A large fan overhead circulates the air. The large island provides a hub and dining area for up to 8 people. Moving forward of the kitchen dining room is the living room with a grand lake view out the front window, a 65" Samsung Smart TV with Roku, and a sofa bed which opens into a queen size bed for a seventh or eighth guest.
Bedrooms feature a lake vibe with shiplap feature walls, artwork, ceiling fans, lamps, Amazon echo alarm clocks, power points on the night tables. The bedroom closets have hangers and drawers, with a hotel style safe in the master closet. The master bedroom has an en suite bathroom with tub - shower. The hall bathroom serves the other two bedrooms and the general area with a stall shower.
The outdoor living space is vast, with a large front porch - 4 rocking chairs, a dining table for 8, and a lovely porch swing. Down the front porch steps is space to hang, grill and enjoy the lake. For the firepit, we provide firewood, six solid Adirondack chairs circle it. Included for you use just steps away is four adult kayaks, one youth kayak, 2 stand up paddle boards, a generous selection of life vests for all sizes, and a bevy of tubes, noodles, ladder golf, Can Jam... with a large grass yard to play. There's two hammocks and tree swing to enjoy the shade. 8 extra Adirondacks stand by for extra guests.
Are you a boater? Rent a boat during your stay from Lake Effects. Bring your own boat or PWC and launch at the McCreery Public launch ramp down the road. Keep it at our private dock. Swim from the dock or wade in via zero entry lake edge. We have thought of everything so you won't need to think about anything but completely enjoying your stay.
Please be aware that the water level at the dock may not be high enough for boat access in the non-summer seasons.

About the host
Hosted by Jessica Barish

Thank you for considering Lake Escape. We are a brother-sister duo that have been working together our entire lives. We created Lake Escape when we moved to Lake Norman with our families a few years ago. We realized that we needed to share our love of the lake with vacation goers year round.
We, along with our families, have created lakefront vacation spaces that are warm and welcoming, fun and adventurous, and comfortable and cozy all while being affordable and providing all of the conveniences of home. We strive to provide a lake vacation experience that exceeds your expectations and creates memories for a lifetime.
We are always accessible. We love hearing from our guests. There is nothing we want more than to hear that you are returning for another stay. Please take a moment to read some of our reviews. Our previous guests do a way better job than we do at describing what Lake Escape truly means.
