Great Getaway
Spent a long weekend with friends in this serene home. There was so much available to keep both kids and adults occupied. The host was very accommodating when needed for our group. Would say the kitchen is not 100% suited for large groups and cooking. At one point we didn’t have enough forks for everyone eating dinner. No mixing bowls or Tupperware. We so enjoyed our stay and looking forward to scheduling the house again for another getaway.

Beautiful house!
We thought it was very beautiful. Thank you for putting up a Christmas tree for us. Just an FYI…nor all the lights work but we made it work and added more! We thought the kitchen and the appliances were great but also thought that it wasn’t as equipped as we were expecting. I ended up bringing dishes and wine glasses and champagne glasses for all of us. Mixing bowls seemed in short supply. And the only other thing I’d comment on is the check out. A 10 am checkout is far too early. With such large groups and for a lengthy stay, it’s hard to be out by that time. We managed only because we started the day before. Otherwise, we lived the fireplaces and the rooms and all the games. My nieces enjoyed the decks and we all enjoyed the views! Thank you so much. It was a a beautiful and memorable Christmas! With smiles, Shawn

Exceeded expectations in every way
Our vacation was fantastic. The property was in a prime location - osprey nests everywhere - across the lake was Lake Norman State Park which we both kayaked and boated to. The house itself exceeded our expectations in every way. Beautiful. Plenty of games. Pool was stunning. Fishing was great (catfish and bass)! And the Lakecations staff were always on call if needed. As a treat - one evening we hired a private chef - Tyree at Crisp Catering to cook for us. What a meal. Highly recommend the location.

I can’t say enough about how blown away my wife and I were with the property. It was exactly as advertised, and the staff were phenomenal. We had a very minor issue the first night, and the staff were were responsive immediately and got everything taken care of. This property was absolutely worth the price- we made memories surrounded by our closest friends that we will never forget. This property is perfect for large family gatherings, weddings, or business retreats. Phenomenal experience.

Fantastic Experience
We had a lovely time at the Lodge. Everything was perfect! House was immaculate, had all amenities stocked, and was very comfortable for six adult couples (each with their own bedroom and bathroom). Lakecations made check in/out very smooth and they were available should anything have been needed at anytime during our stay. We are very happy and will definitely be back.

We celebrate our big family Thanksgiving a week before Thanksgiving observed every year. In doing so we have rented many large homes up and down the East coast to accommodate our large family for many years. We have just returned home from our amazing Thanksgiving celebration this year, and hands down this was our best Thanksgiving ever. This home is spectacular! Hats off to the management company. This home was impressively clean and organized. I really appreciated the high end cookware and that plates, glasses and utensils all matched. Thanks again and we will definitely be back.

Amazing house, perfect for our Retreat
House is amazing and the service was great. Beyond the house being beautiful and spacious, it comes stocked with fire wood, corn hole boards, portable blue tooth speakers, and other games. The range in the kitchen is one of the nicest I've ever seen. Our alumni group has been going on trips for 10+ years and this is by far the nicest place we have rented. I hope to return here in the future.

Great stay at the Lodge for the week - held a regional sales meeting in the space and everyone had a wonderful time. The views of the lake were also absolutely gorgeous. Great kitchen and deck for a shrimp boil & grilling out! Only slight issue was in regards to power being out for a full day while people were arriving & having issues with some of the locks on the various doors (we had some problems locking them), but regardless would recommend the Lodge and consider staying here again!
