Thank you!
We hope you found the property to your liking and were thrilled that you were able to bring your boat and catch some fish…mission accomplished!
House was great and just as described. Lorraine was very accommodating and helpful at check in and very thoughtful with some wonderful snacks! Sitting on the porch drinking coffee watching the sun rise over the lake was nothing less of spectacular! We will definitely return!

This lake house exceeded our expectations! The photos looked great, but the cottage was even more beautiful in person. It was well-appointed, comfortable, and full of charm. The views of the lake were stunning and the perfect backdrop for a relaxing, tranquil weekend.Lorraine and Jim were exceptional hosts. They were hospitable, accommodating, friendly, and professional throughout. We loved the special touches, like fresh-baked cookies and homemade granola waiting for us. Everything we needed was right there at the property, making for an easy, relaxing getaway.I highly recommend this place and would love to come back!

About the host
Hosted by LORRAINE MCPARTLIN
Originally from the Finger Lakes region of Rochester, in central/western New York, we came here to be closer to family. We found this quaint cottage to start our new lake living lifestyle and leave the snow behind. Over the past 10 years, we renovated the cottage, and built a two story garage, which is where we currently reside. We now share our single story cottage and its beautiful setting with travelers looking for a peaceful, comfortable place to relax and just “escape”!
Why they chose this property
We chose this neighborhood quite by chance. Living in an apartment in Charlotte for a year was long enough, so we drove to Mooresville to find a small home just for us two and discovered this little cottage nestled back in woods, on the lake and on a dead end winding road. It needed a renovation but that was ok by us! As the realtor said, you’re buying the property, the rest will follow…And it surely has!
What makes this property unique
There’s something about an established older neighborhood on a winding, tree-lined street, along the water’s edge that felt immediately like a breath of fresh air. Once you get here, it feels off the beaten path, but it is conveniently located to a wide variety of shopping, activities, restaurants and bars. The property is bordered on one side by the neighbor’s rock wall which provides great privacy, which was very appealing to us. It’s generally quiet here and the road is a three to four mile round trip walk. Neighbors are friendly, but we all tend to like our privacy as well. At just shy of an acre, our place feels roomy enough to do what we want, but manageable enough to enjoy what we have. Friends and family who have stayed with us don’t want to leave because it just feels like home. If you come here over July 4th, the fireworks show from the dock is awesome.
