Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Lake Norman of Catawba

This lake house was everything we hoped for and more. From the moment we arrived, it felt like a true escape. The house had everything we needed for a perfect family getaway—cozy, clean, and so thoughtfully stocked. But what really stole our hearts was the view. Watching the sun set over the water each evening, wrapped in a blanket with nothing but the sound of the lake and laughter in the background, was pure magic. We made beautiful memories here and can’t wait to come back. Thank you for sharing your piece of paradise with us. Highly recommended, we will be back! We also used Lake Effects for our boat rental, they were fantastic! It’s about an 18 minute trip back to the house on the water.

Heather was a great host, the house was very clean and we enjoyed our stay!

Nice escape from the city, very quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub, the house was great! Ashley was prompt to respond and we felt right at home. The nearby shopping center was also super convenient for last minute needs.

Very cozy home on the lake. Unfortunately, the weather wasn’t very cooperative but we enjoyed our time and the home. The inside of the home is very clean, spacious, and accommodating. The outside could have used a bit more cleaning, but it had been raining a lot and I’m sure that contributed to the dirt along the decks and outdoor furniture.

My family and I stayed at Austin’s home for a Father’s Day getaway and it did not disappoint. Austin’s house was exactly as pictured. Super clean, had all the things I needed away from home, and was so peaceful. My kids did not want to leave as his house provided them with all things outdoors that we don’t typically do. They enjoyed fishing, campfires, paddle boarding, jumping off the dock onto this floating island mat, touring Lake Norman on his beautiful boat and best of all having a BLAST on the water tube. My husband and I appreciated the relaxing hot tub while taking in all the beauty of the lake. Austin was so quick to respond to my questions and was just a joy!! We shared some special bonding time together as a family because Austin’s house provided the perfect space to do so. We would absolutely come back and stay at his place in the future.

We were visiting our son at Davidson College and it was close and gave a place to place board games and sit by the fire. Love the lake. Peaceful.

Great location! Very responsive host! Game room and master bedroom upstairs was a huge hit!!

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.

Great stay!!!! Great location.

We really enjoyed our stay at Lakefront Serenity. The view was beautiful, house cozy, and loved the friendly cats! ❤️ We felt right at home and had everything we needed. The pedal boat was fun, too.

The place was nice, neat and peaceful! I had a little issues getting in but Brian was prepared with alternatives. I would definitely stay here again!

Mike’s place was beautiful and clean. The neighborhood was quiet and very close to downtown. I fell in love with the Davidson College Campus and downtown. Mike’s place had everything I needed and the big TV was amazing. It’s a small but very comfortable place, will definitely book again.

Great place beautiful property

Thoroughly enjoyed our recent stay. Cathy was responsive. The apartment was classy, clean and neat. It rained while we were there but we still got out to enjoy Davidson and some great restaurants. My husband had to hold several Zoom meetings for work and the WIFI and internet worked great. No problems. Beautiful area and beautiful home and apt. Hope to go again.

Our stay here was Awesome! It's exactly what we needed. The space was lovely, beautiful, and very peaceful. I was in town handling some stressful business and I was able to escape into an oasis at Jaime's house. Thank you so much for being accommodating to me and my family.

Diane was extremely understanding and easy to work with, you can't ask for a better place to stay in the area with room to sleep 4. Note there is a half bath/laundry room and 2 couches on the first floor. The rest is on a second floor of this duplex.

Carmen’s place was centrally located, spotless and she helped accommodate some requests which made our stay easy. Thank you. Highly recommended.

Easy to work with and easy to get into.

The place was very cute, clean, and in an excellent location! Whenever we are back in Charlotte, this will be the first place we check for availability. I would definitely recommend staying here.

As advertised! We enjoyed are stay. Marc was easy to work with.

Outstanding location and quality apartment. Josh was so helpful both before arrival and during stay.

Linda's condo was exactly as it was described, and yes, the beautiful trees and scenery around it made it very peaceful. The condo is very welcoming, the furnishings made us feel right at home, and the location is great! Linda was always responsive and flexible during the process. It was a great experience! We will definitely be going back!

Great stay. Host was super responsive. Only a twenty minute walk from Bank of America Stadium. The place had everything a person or couple would need for a great weekend in Charlotte.

Loved our stay! Lots of coffee shops and restaurants were in walkable distance, neighbors were not noisy, and the place was very nice. Would definitely stay here again if we ever go back to Charlotte
