About this property

Skipper's Cove, Lakefront, Private Dock, Fire Pit, Open Floor Plan, Level Lot!

Welcome to Skipper's Cove — a fully remodeled lakefront retreat tucked at the quiet end of a cove on High Rock Lake. With 220 feet of level lake frontage, a private dock, and over an acre of wooded property, this is the kind of place people come back to year after year.

The cove location means virtually zero boat traffic passing your dock — just peaceful water, wooded shoreline, and room to breathe. And with no bridges between you and the main lake, getting out to open water is quick and easy.

The Dock & Water Access
The private floating dock accommodates 2 boats plus a separate Jet Ski/Wave Runner dock. Fish from the pier, swim off the dock, or launch your own watercraft right from the property. Prefer not to haul a boat? Rentals are available locally at SkipJack Marina, High Rock Boat Dock Marina, and more.

The Home
Completely renovated in 2021 — new kitchen, HVAC, roof, windows, floors, paint, and master bath — this home has all the comforts you'd want without the quirks of an older lake house. The open floor plan keeps everyone connected whether you're cooking, dining, or just hanging out.

*4 bedrooms + game room with a full pull-out sofa, sleeping 10–12 comfortably
*Bunkhouse room with 2 sets of bunk beds and flat-screen TV — the kids will claim it immediately
*Master suite with a private bathroom
*Multiple flat-screen TVs, plus high-speed Wi-Fi throughout
*Fully equipped kitchen with new appliances, coffee maker, toaster, microwave, and cookware
*Gas grill and board games for evenings in

Outside
The screened patio is your go-to for morning coffee and meals without the bugs. Head down to the lakeside stone fire pit for evening campfires, or pull up a chair at the picnic table by the dock for lunch with a view. There's plenty of lawn space to spread out, and the sunsets over the water from the backyard are something else entirely.

The Area
High Rock Lake hosts championship fishing tournaments throughout the year — a great reason to book early. When you're ready to explore beyond the dock: hike, golf, canoe, or visit one of the area's farm tours or wineries (Richard Childress Vineyards is just 25 minutes away). Further out you'll find the NC Zoo, NASCAR Hall of Fame, Bass Pro Shops, Carowinds Theme and Water Park, Dan Nicholas State Park, and Concord Mills Outlet Mall. Downtown Lexington is just minutes away for a casual dinner, with larger shopping and dining in Salisbury, Concord, and Charlotte. Several marinas on the lake offer boat fuel, fishing supplies, and waterfront dining.

Boats, trailers, and campers are welcome on-premise. Ample parking available.

We hope Skipper's Cove becomes your family's favorite place on the lake.

About the host

Host profile image
Skipper's Cove is a labor of love from two families who share a deep passion for the lake. We grew up on the water, raised our kids loving lake life, and always dreamed of having a place to call our own. Skipper's Cove made that dream a reality — and the name "Skipper" holds a special meaning for both of our families and generations past.
We know firsthand how rare it is to find a lakefront home that works for a large group — enough beds, enough space, a real dock, and that quiet-cove feel where the kids can swim without worrying about boat traffic. That's exactly what drew us to this property, and what we've worked hard to preserve and improve.
For us, lake life isn't just about the action on the water — it's equally about those quiet moments at the end of the day when the light fades, the lake goes still, and everything feels a little more like black and white. That peaceful time between sunset and dark is something we never take for granted. We hope you find it too.
Kick off your shoes, fire up the grill, spend too long at the dock, and stay up a little later than you planned around the fire pit. Welcome to Skipper's Cove.
