Absolutely loved our stay. We brought our dog and spent most of our stay in the backyard, which had lovely landscaping. Plenty of lounge furniture, space for our dog to run around, and the inside was one of the cleanest and best equipped houses we’ve ever stayed in. Communication with the property manager was quick and helpful. Truly enjoyed our visit and hope to return in the future! ##### Kaitlyn C. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kristina W. 27 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect stay for my family!! I got this rental for some family members to stay in for my grandsons first birthday. They said the pictures do it no justice. It was beautiful and my daughter said they had everything!! The backyard is very big and nice!! Would rent again! ##### Kristina W. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bob R. 16 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### First time to the area. Property owners/managers were the best. Immediately responsive to our questions. Absolutely all needs of home living was provided while so many small personal touches were evident throughout home. February stay prevented us from enjoying backyard but it was great for our four legged family member. Overall would highly recommend. Centralized for visiting Lake Norman, Fort Nill or Charlotte.

Stayed 20 nights in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Rhonda M. 9 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful home This property is exactly as desribed in the listing. Very nice and comfortable. The outside is like an oasis, very welcoming. The only issue we had was there is no hot water in the kitchen. We made it work but was a bit of an inconvience. I'm sure had if I had reached out they would have came and fixed it but we had alot of plans while we were there. ##### Rhonda M.
