Awesome Place

We absolutely loved our weekend stay. In town for my son’s wedding so this house was perfect for my family of five. Spacious rooms, comfy beds, extra linens, and supplied kitchen. Loved the back porch even though we weren’t there enough to enjoy it. Would definitely stay here again when we come to visit!!

Excellent stay!

My family and I enjoyed our stay. The house was excellently appointed and it is obvious the owner put in a lot of time and effort to design this property. It was very clean as well. Daniel is an excellent host, communicating well and even helping with local information. We were in town for a wedding and wish we had time to rent a boat / watercraft to explore the lake. Highly recommend!

Lovely property for a holiday in North Carolina

I stayed at the property for 10 days with my 11 year old son, and my aunt who joined us later.The property is really nicely presented with nice beds and decor, I really liked the art on the walls. It felt very much like staying in someone's home as opposed to a holiday let. Whilst we didn't do a lot of cooking everything we needed was there in terms of kitchen appliances/utensils.Out back there is a great raised decking area overlooking the lake to eat outside, and a dock for if you rent a boat or have kayaks.Really easy check in and out via a lockbox. If you are checking out you need to press the reset button inside lockbox before you close it otherwise it doesn't lock when you are returning the key. Good location with close proximity to Hickory restaurants and roads to travel elsewhere.

Just what we needed!

From the moment we opened the door we knew we would love this house. The entire place was spotless and it smelled so clean. All the furniture was very comfortable esp the king bed and we are picky about beds. The back deck over looking the water is so nice. It was really hot when we went so we couldn't enjoy it long enough but there are nice fans that helped us enjoy it for a little while. The patio furniture is also very comfortable. Our favorite area of the whole place is definitely the master bathroom. It was a dream. It felt like we were at a spa with how relaxing it was. All our needs as far as towels, blankets, cooking utensils, dishes, etc were provided which was very nice we didn't have to pack. It was very quiet and we got some much needed relaxation time even though it was a short stay. We hope to go back in the near future and stay a little longer. We have stayed at a lot of houses and this one hands down is at the top of our list. Thanks Daniel for letting us stay at your beautiful house and for being available if we needed anything!

The house is very well kept and we had no issues with our stay from a lodging perspective. The back porch is a relaxing getaway. Although the listings says a pontoon can access the dock we were not able to due to water depth and the dock is not even setup to dock a boat with only one cleat. Go elsewhere if you desire to dock your boat.

Very classy rental

The place was clearly professionally decorated, it is practically stunning. The beds were very comfortable, it was very clean and communication with the owner was very positive. The location was very good as well. I'd like to have stayed longer; I really enjoyed hanging out on the nicely furnished porch.
