All Decked Out

What a beautiful location and perfect accommodations. We loved being able to sit on the screened in porch for meals and used the dock for a morning yoga session. The beds were comfortable and the whole place was cozy and inviting. Would highly recommend Cliff and his beautiful home to a family or group who wants to get away with beautiful surroundings.

Sun-filled Lakefront Cottage Oasis

4.94 out of 5 average rating, 54 reviews3 weeks ago

Absolutely the BEST play to stay! We booked a 3-night stay for a weekend getaway. I found Sun-filled Lakefront Cottage Oasis by happenstance while looking for a retreat at Lake Norman. It was exactly what we had hoped for! A quiet, cozy, clean cottage on a beautiful property with breathtaking views of the lake. It's just a short drive into town with plenty of places to eat but also had a kitchen (very well stocked) so you could cook yourself and stay in (& why not with those views). The pier was great, and it had nice shade to sit and relax while reading a book, fishing, or just enjoying nature. The cottage was extremely comfortable overall with everything you could possibly need for a getaway. We loved that you have a lake view from all rooms of the cottage. The owner was very friendly, helpful, and gracious. I loved the recommendations as to what to see and where to eat in Sherrill’s Ford put together by the owner! Absolute perfection…We will definitely be back!!

Nice lake house. Comfortable spaces. The living room was spacious but only 1 table lamp to light the space after dark. This house is not one to pick for anyone with mobility issues as all bedrooms are downstairs and kitchen/living room upstairs. We enjoyed our stay.

Perfect Spring or Summer Lakefront Getaway Home

5 out of 5 average rating, 8 reviews4 months ago

I really can't express how perfect this place was for us! I booked it for Thanksgiving to get our scattered family together. The house is amazing with two living room spaces, two dining spaces and plenty of bedrooms for all of us. The lake was beautiful and we enjoyed a little fishing and kayaking. The large dining room made it possible to seat everyone at one table for Thanksgiving dinner. One of the neighbors even saved Thanksgiving by sharing the forgotten spices for pumpkin pie!There is a strong possibility that we will be back next year to do it all again. Thank you Jodi, for a wonderful experience!!

Lkn, pet friendly! Boat rental! Deep quiet cove!

5 out of 5 average rating, 11 reviews4 months ago

Great stay. Very clean, well equipped, amenities were as advertised and well maintained. House was in great location - very near restaurants, stores, and lake norman park (great hiking trails). Communication with host and co-host was very responsive. The game room was a hit! Adults, kids, and grandkids all played pool, air hockey, and foosball. Grandkids loved the paddleboards. And the hot tub was very nice for unwinding. For Thanksgiving dinner - having 2 refrigerators and ovens for meal prep was a lifesaver! Only feedback I have is it would be nice if the game room was heated. And the fenced back yard was not as large as we expected (as it looked in the picture) but it worked out ok for the 2 dogs. All in all a great time had by all - including the dogs - and it was a great Thanksgiving! Would recommend staying here!

Top Water Perch-Waterfront, Private Dock, Sleeps 8

5 out of 5 average rating, 15 reviews2 weeks ago

Jamie covered everything in her e-mails, texts and booklet at the cabin that we had absolutely no questions or need for communication. We DID have a need to return after checkout to return the kayak to its proper location and she graciously gave us the go-ahead. We needed help from our grandsons to get it on the dock and carry it up to the rack provided and had to wait till they got out of school. Would so recommend her place to anyone who wants a lovely place on Lake Norman especially if they need to b near the Troutman area. Wonderful place!!!
