Lake James N.C. Waterfront home, Private dock/bunk

PenelopeRating, 5 stars4 months ago
Such a beautiful home and a wonderful place for a family weekend retreat to Lake Jackson State Park and participate in the Fonta Flora 50K. The home is so cozy, and enjoyable. Space to gather together and also retreat away to relax and read a book or nap. The deck and dock space are amazing!!! Hosts were so friendly and welcoming. We are already planning our next visit to their home.

New Listing! - Lakefront Cottage

AlexisRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We enjoyed our long weekend at the lake, and Joe was a responsive, helpful host. The house is just as described and photographed...cozy and comfortable. The fresh coffee grinds and filters were nice extra touches. We spent a lot of time on the paddleboards and kayaks, which were easily accessible in a locked storage room off the dock. The dock is nice and wide for sitting by the lake on the Adirondack chairs with a good book or speaker for music, which we enjoyed doing. We cooked in each night, having brought food from home, and we also made a grocery run to Wal Mart about 20 mins away. We returned home today rested and relaxed after our lake weekend, and would stay here again!

Perfect Spring or Summer Lakefront Getaway Home

MartyRating, 5 stars4 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!

EvonneRating, 5 stars4 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!

Dock & Private Boat Ramp w/flat yard

CathyRating, 5 stars4 months ago
This was our family’s second visit to Jennifer’s Lake Gaston house for Thanksgiving and we so enjoyed our time there! The house is spacious with a beautiful and quiet location on the lake. It’s so generous of the host to allow use of the kayaks and canoe, which makes this place truly extra special. The dock and other outdoor spaces are also lovely and the area is great for taking long walks. Check-in and check-out were a breeze and Jennifer is an extremely responsive host.

We loved coming here. It was the perfect get away. We enjoyed coffee in the am, kayaks and fishing all day and delighted in the evening. Everything was easy to find around the house, very intuitive. We enjoyed the water so much, it was so serene. Thank you for making this place available to us, we will be back!

Beautiful and quiet location! Carson sent us a detailed brochure prior to check in that answered so many questions. The house was cozy, clean, and supplied with everything we needed. It was a very smooth process from checkin to checkout. Hope to visit again in warmer weather!

The Lake House

HeatherRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This place was perfect for us and our dogs—one of our favorite trips for sure. It had everything we needed in a clean and comfortable package. Basic, convenient, cozy, comfortable, and the best location for us. We want to cancel all of our other trips this year and just come back to Black Mountain and stay at Sean’s. While we have very well behaved dogs and have never had any issues with them staying anywhere, we always get a little nervous that they might mess something up, but Sean’s place is absolutely dog proof and we felt right at home. Our dogs loved it too. Don’t hesitate to book, but also we hope it’s available next time we come to Black Mountain. 😀

Docktails Cabana:Just 10 Steps to the Water!

MicheleRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Docktails is where it's at. This amazing dockside retreat is indeed ten steps from the water and affords you every amenity needed to enjoy a fantastic time on or just at the water. We spent a few days on Lake Waccamaw and appreciated what Lake Life had to offer at Docktails. We were greeted by a stocked kitchen, well-appointed features throughout the home, and a community sharing-type approach to hospitality throughout the property. Hosts Lisa and Terra were very responsive to our needs and ensured our stay was pleasant. We will definitely be bringing out tails back to Ducktails next time we visit sweet Lake Waccamaw!!!

The property was in a great location with a excellent view. The home was very clean and well appointed. We appreciated the complimentary bottled water and coffee. Ryan was great and very responsive when we reached out to him. We had a great stay with our teens exploring the Lake Norman and Moorseville area.

Row House | Lakefront Luxury with Fire Pit!

KaylinRating, 5 stars3 months ago
The house was beautiful with a view of the lake. I enjoyed coffee on the outdoor patio or in front of the various fires. We also enjoyed hiking the community trails as a family. My advice would be to pack everything, the kitchen did not have any supplies (ie garbage bags or olive oil). Worth every penny for the house and would love to go back in the summer. Oh and don't waste your time going to Marion, there's nothing in that town. Enjoy the outdoors instead :)

Lake Front Home with Private Dock in Gated BearPaw

CrystalRating, 5 stars8 months ago
Our family has been coming to Bear Paw for the last 20 years for our family reunion. This was our first time in this cabin, and it didn't disappoint. Plenty of space, and our children truly enjoyed the game room and well stocked board games. We ended up meeting the neighbors when enjoying the lake and they were so wonderful as well.

Mountain Lake House [Kayaks & Paddleboards]

JeffRating, 5 stars6 months ago
The house was exactly as advertised. Incredibly clean and well stocked. Easy to get in and even smelled great. The kitchen was equipped with EVERY utensil we possibly needed. We were only able to use the paddle boards on our last day due to weather but they were great when we did. Also enjoyed a campfire and saw a million stars on clear nights. Overall we loved the place and felt right at home.

Lakefront with private pier

DanielleRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We were in town for a wedding and I did lots of searching on this platform to find the best space for my family when I came across this listing. I am very glad I chose this property. First off the photos don’t do the space justice. It’s much larger in person. We felt at home immediately. Communication with the host was amazing and answered any questions I had prior to arriving. Response time was fast as well. The house was spotless and well appointed. We cooked breakfast daily. The yard space is large and great for kids to play. Kayaks and SUP boards are in the shed as well as beach chairs. The porch is amazing to sit anytime of day and the little private pier is beautiful. I wish we had longer to enjoy this space. Thank you for opening your home to my family and allowing us to make countless memories we will never forget.

Serene Lakefront Retreat:

DeniseRating, 5 stars9 months ago
The home was very comfortable, clean, and beautifully updated. The large screened in porch allowed us to enjoy a lovely view in a quiet location of the lake. Landscaping and dock area were attractive and provided lots of fun. It was obvious the owners took great pride in providing thoughtful amenities for their guests to have an enjoyable experience. The only thing that didn’t work for us was taking our boat out of the water there on the property. The gravel driveway made it too difficult to get the traction needed to pull trailered boat up steep incline. The alternative was to drive approximately 10 minutes to Buddle Creek Wildlife Boat Launch to trailer boat upon departure. We enjoyed our stay at this High Rock Lake home and hope to rebook next year.
