Tranquility Cove - Beautiful Lakefront Apartment
Wow, what a location right by the lake! We absolutely loved this accommodation. its tastefully decorated, calm, peaceful and private. the living space is sociable and the front porch allows you to enjoy the view of the lake, the birds and just the wonderful peaceful atmosphere. there are kyaks and paddle boards and a beautiful dining area on the jetty. Comfortable beds, pretty linen, great bathrooms and a well equipped kitchen make it feel top end. Clearly this place is loved by the owner and we recommend it to anyone looking for a tranquil stay. we came to Charlotte for the Speedway but we're so happy we got out of town to explore the countryside and enjoy Lake Norman. Downtown Moorseville is about 20 mins away and was a lovely place for a bit if shopping and some nice coffee ☕️ Thank you Patricia. we highly recommend your beautiful place at Tranquility Cove x

Cozy Lakefront Apartment
This was such a cute Airbnb. Tammy was a wonderful host, friendly, and very responsive. We enjoyed our time there and was able to take our their kayaks. This is a place I’d stay again when in the area!

City View Studio Uptown
Very convenient location and the pictures matched the description given on the app.

Sail Away Suite
Karen was helpful in sending recommendations and communication regarding the impact of Helene on the area. Always answered questions and put us at ease. The suite was beautiful and the amenities were nice and the views were great. Instructions were helpful. I would highly recommend this suite

LakeLife Retreat featuring Hot Tub & King Bed
Sherry was an amazing host and the Lake Life Retreat was even better than what the pictures showed. This is the perfect location for a nice relaxing getaway. Added bonus was having 2 amazingly friendly dogs on site in Luna and Sandy 😁 We would definitely stay here again!

Old Mill Retreat
Beautiful location! The host is definitely a nature person with beautiful plants and chickens. The place was both invigorating and tranquil. Definitely recommend!!

Lakefront Family Fun, New Gazebo, Toys Included!
Rick and Judy's place is an amazing find! They thought of everything you might need and is such a great location. They are very friendly and all the lake amenities are top notch! We plan to stay here again next year!

Waterfront apartment near dt Davidson
I generally forget to leave reviews, but I felt compelled to share our experience here. We fortunately left the sub-par hotel we had just checked in, and found this spot. It exceeded our expectations. The apartment smelled fresh, looked new and had lots of space. The owner was very prompt answering a question and filling a need. The icing on the cake was sipping coffee by the lake on the morning of our departure. You will have fond memories staying here.

NEW! Lakefront Retreat w/ Kayaks + Firepit + Views
We had the BEST stay at this home on Lake Norman. It’s a great house and had everything we wanted! We’d definitely stay here again!

Lake James is Safe and Ready to Welcome You!
This property was perfect for our family gathering. Lots of spaces to gather and the kitchen was well stocked. It was so nice to have the water toys and dock. We rented a pontoon from Patrick (a local person recommended in the property binder) who delivered it to the dock and then came back and picked it up. We enjoyed the fire pit and appreciated the wood that was available. Can’t wait to plan to stay here again next year!

Rhodhiss Bliss 3
Lisa was a very responsive host and we appreciate that the property is dog friendly! The kitchen was stocked with all the necessary items for our stay and the bathrooms were pristine. It's a new home, so everything is spotless and comfortable. The host lives on site, but we barely heard them while we were staying there.

Log Cabin Lake Living
This beautiful home was perfect for our wedding guests for a busy wedding weekend. We loved sitting out on the spacious deck overlooking the water and visiting with everyone. Just a short distance from Chickadee Hill Farms if you’re looking for a good place for your out of town guests.

Gorgeous Lakefront Home | Mountain AND Lake Views!
This place is amazing!! The proximity to the lake can’t be beat…only a few steps and you are on the water. The house was clean and had everything we needed - It was perfect for a week on the lake with my family ❤️ We would most definitely stay here again!

Lakefront Manor w/ Beach, Gameroom, Sauna, Theatre
Staying at this beautiful house on Lake Norman in Denver, NC, was nothing short of perfection. From the moment I booked the property to the day I checked out, the entire experience was seamless and enjoyable. The house itself was so stunning and well-maintained that it’s honestly difficult to put into words just how wonderful it was. Every corner of the property exuded comfort and care, making it a true retreat. The host deserves a special mention for their responsiveness; any question or concern I had was addressed promptly and thoroughly. Their clear communication and attentiveness made the entire process feel effortless, which is always a bonus when planning a getaway. The kayak was fun and relaxing. My wife had never been and she doesn't speak English. It turns out I don't speak Spanish when kayaks are about to tip over and I need to say "No te apoyes." Only downside: no nearby places to take an evening walk or grab some ice cream or souvenirs.

Minutes to App Ski Mt Hot Tub River Front Fire Pit
If you think to yourself I wonder if this air bnb has xyz it does. The host is very proactive in having anything you might need at your fingertips. The kitchen is very well stocked any quality items. You might ask yourself - will I be able to hear cars in the road? And to be honest we hardly even noticed them. Having noise machines in each room was also a nice touch. We loved that it was close to Tweetsie and Blowing Rock. If you have kids you gotta check out the memorial park in downtown Blowing Rock. Our kids played there almost everyday after dinner.

3BR-Quiet Cove-Private Slip/Boat Ramp-Pet-Friendly
We look forward to coming back in a few months! The house is right on the lake and it’s beautiful inside. It was perfect for our family vacation. This will be a regular stay on our list!

Pleasant stay with great views, great weather, and plenty of activities!

Mountain Getaway | Pools, Trails & More!
It was a great peaceful Escape for the weekend. The hosts were very communicative and the place was very clean.

Lakefront Condo on Lake Norman!
This condo was probably the most organized and comprehensive Airbnb expereinces I have had. The condo is very well stocked with everything you need. It opens right up to the pool and you have a nice view of the Marina. Great for a small family. Very easy location - right off the highway. Kim was incredibly responsive. Checking out was easy - there's a checklist to review right on the counter.

Cozy Davidson Lake Norman escape
One of the best decisions we made on a recent trip to NC was staying for 3 nights at Desiree’s lakefront condo in Davidson. Located on an inlet of beautiful Lake Norman this 2-bedroom rental exceeded our expectations. Curbside parking and ground-level access made entering and exiting the property quick and easy. And the 2-bedroom arrangement allowed us to put our 4-year old granddaughter to bed early while we stayed up to take in the view of the harbor or watch our favorite shows on the large-screen TV in our bedroom. We also enjoyed eating breakfast on the back porch and cooling off in the nearby pool. We did not have the time to enjoy all of the amenities the rental offered, but we made good use of the kitchen (with dishwasher and utensils) and the washer-dryer. Desiree’s lakefront property was a wise investment and contributed significantly to our enjoyment during our stay. I would highly recommend this rental to anyone seeking a quiet, private, and relaxing retreat!

Stormin Normans Nest by SoCharm | 3rd Floor Condo
Lovely and easy home, with a great layout and views that everyone - especially our 3 year old - enjoyed. The beds and couch were also comfortable!

Rumbling Bald Lakefront 4 Bed/4 Bath Condo on Lake
We enjoyed our stay. Kathleen was very helpful. Thank you

Lakeview Penthouse on Lake Norman
Great location Katie was quick to help when needed. The coffee pot was broken and she had a new one at the door same day. Would not hesitate to stay again.

Love the Serenity as Flattop Creek whistles below-
The condo is super cozy and suitable for a weekend getaway. We really enjoyed our stay here!
