What a beautiful property! It was more than we imagined even with the pictures online. We arrived to a sparkling clean home with a basket of treats to choose from. This property had everything! We had been traveling for a while and needed to do some wash, and the owners had all we needed. We woke up craving caffeine, and tge owners had a variety of coffee choices for us. The property has a beautiful patio right next to Lake Norman, the bedrooms are lovely and comfortable, and it is right next to a fabulous restaurant. We even relaxed by the pool, and met some dear, friendly neighbors. The living spaces were extremely comfortable, and I wish we could have stayed longer. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Overall this was great. Was a little alarmed by all the rules etc but they were all very sensible. Only minor point is the 10 am departure time - could do with another hour - after a party of 12 for a week it felt ‘ sudden’

Awesome Property!

This place was amazing. Stayed here with family ( 4 adults and a nine month old). Great to walk around right in the lake and walking distance to a restaurant was super convenient. They even had a pack and play for the baby and an ice chest to use for our day outing in a rented boat. The snacks were a great little perk as well. Would definitely recommend this property!

Very nice!!

We traveled to visit my husband's mom in the same complex, with our 2 dogs. It was very clean & comfortable. The view of the lake beautiful & we caught a great sunset one evening. Weather was so rainy while we were there so we couldn't enjoy the pretty patio. The space is open concept, kitchen was very nice, but other than coffee & a light bite for breakfast, we didn't do any cooking. Used the washer/dryer which worked great. Living area spacious, large TV (roku) & separate dining area as well. Green space for dog walking right in front of unit. It is a great place for a larger group with the 3 BR, would definately recommend!

We had a wonderful stay except the people above us were very noisy & some neighbors were not vet nice. We had stayed in the same community last year & it was better because the neighbors were nice & we didn't have people above us making all kinds of noise. Overall we had a great experience & we love the Cornelius area!

Love the Cornelius area!

We loved our week at this condo. The neighborhood is nice and close to so many stores and restaurants. Loved the boardwalk area to walk around. The restaurant, “Port City Club” was very nice. Working with Katie was a breeze and any question/issue we had was dealt with immediately. One of the best managers we’ve dealt with. You can tell that the owner had furnished their condo with quality items….too bad people don’t treat things like their own and properly care for them. People don’t seem clean the pots and pans properly in rental units for some reason. (Many stays in VRBO rentals). Who puts pans away with food still on them ?! The person after us had clean pans! 😉 The housekeeper did a good job cleaning the unit. One could not tell that pets are allowed, and we have a pet. Remember….housekeeping is to wash the floors, bathrooms, sheets/towels et-cetera in between guests. They are not meant to be our maids. 😉 It is impossible for them to check the cleanliness of everything in the kitchen before the next guest arrives. I always leave things the way I would like to find them…but that’s just me. You will not regret staying here! We hope to return in the future.

The property has a lovely view of the lake and a nice patio area to sit and relax. Very well equipped kitchen and nice appliances. The guest bathroom could have been a little bigger but the master bedroom was spacious. We enjoyed our stay but to short. Parking can be a challenge.

High Value with 5 Star Experience

We looked at two other properties in the complex with the exact same layout and found this property to be the best value but also the experience with the owner was truly enjoyable and simple. We highly recommend this property because of the value but also the experience with the owner.

Best rental ever !!!

For t he first time, this rental property was as nice as the pictures posted. The view was lovely and the pier walk was wonderful - even for me, I am handicapped with a cane. Our small 7 lb. dog loved sunning in the courtyard. We had a little rouble finding the address as bushes had grown up over the numbering sign. I did take scissors and trim the bushes back 2 1/2 feet so the next folks could find the address. This property is well cared for and the owners thought of every need. We loved our stay and hope to return. The view was so peaceful and calming. Fantastic vacation. :) :) :) Thanks, Diane :)
