There are multiple options for renting a boat at Lake Wylie. One company we recommend that is conveniently located across the lake is Boat Rentals of Lake Wylie (search "boatrentalsoflkw"). It is ~10 min by car and ~5-10 min by water. You can book anywhere from a half-day to a multi-day rental with the option to have the boat delivered to the house for you. *This is just one of many options. Please do your own research and read reviews for more information.*
Neighborhood- The house is located down a gravel road shared with a few neighbor houses so it is private and secluded. However, it is also very conveniently located to grocery stores, restaurants, parks & more! All just minutes away. The best of both worlds!
Parking- There is ample parking at the house. PLEASE DRIVE SLOWLY AND CAREFULLY down the gravel road as our neighbors use golf carts.
This lake house truly is a secluded paradise where you can escape the stresses of everyday life and unwind in luxury. Book your stay today and experience the ultimate lakefront retreat!
Guests have full access to our property. The bonus space above the garage has a ping pong table and floats.
The front door has a smart lock allowing for easy check-in and out.
Parking- There are multiple parking spaces at the house. The gravel road to the house is shared with our neighbors so please no parking along this single-lane gravel road. Drive slowly and carefully.
