Great Stay overall!
We ended up having to move locations before the trip happened, but they accommodated us with a pretty even swap. Had no issues with the new location and loved our stay!

Great Gathering place
My Family hasn’t been able to get together much since Covid. So a last minute decision was made for my DMV to meet our South Carolina family in Charlotte. The home was spacious enough to accommodate all of us. The deck and yard was perfect for the family gathering. We were able to laugh and love on each other. Thank you

Relaxation ar it's best.
The property was beautiful, it was very clean and welcoming. It felt like a home away from home. We weren't sure what we would need so we stopped at the local Walmart and did some shopping. When we got to the property and they had ALL that we needed. Teri the property manager was VERY helpful. This was our first time using the VRBO app she walked me through the app and eased my mind. If ever in the area we will definitely be staying again.

Champions Cup Visit
The home interior was as advertised and depicted on the listing. The VRBO process was as usual, seamless and efficient. The location of the property was near Quail Hollow which was the venue of the presidents cup. The homes upper and lower (split level) was nicely laid out and included Foose Ball and Air Hockey so if you have younger adults of children it’s perfect.

We found old moled bread in cabinet. Which to us means it wasn't cleaned with care. Just spotted cleaned. Dust under bed which messed with my allergies. But overall we enjoyed our stay thanks. Steamer didn't work for us.

Sibling trip
We are walkers. Loved that the trail is RIGHT there!. The five siblings all had their own room. One sib had his spouse with him so they took the ensuite. The other four sibs had their own room but shared a bath. Worked perfectly! Loved the two living spaces. We cooked, not much for going out to eat even without COVID. Loved the deck seating, outdoor firepit. Just a great place.

Great Family Getaway
This was a great place to stay with my family while visiting my grandkids. The backyard was spacious and had lots of room to run around. We had a fire one evening. The kids (of all ages!) loved the foosball table. There was immediate access to the walking trails, which we used nearly every day. Thanks so much for sharing your beatiful, updated home!

Great home to relax with friends
We loved this property. It was very clean and the decor was very nice. The downstairs area is a great place for kids to hang out and sleep and it’s like their own little private area. We had an amazing time and enjoyed the property. We will definitely visit again if we are back in Charlotte.
