About this property

Taylor Made for the Lake! With optional pontoon rental

Boating, swimming, kayaking, sunbathing and relaxing on our huge porch. There is so much to enjoy at our lake home that's perfect for multi-generational families.

We have a 2021 Suntracker tri-toon available to our guests as an additional rental. No more spending time picking up and returning a rental boat on a deadline. Have your boat waiting for you when you arrive. Take an early morning cruise or cruise for a dockside dinner. Inquire with homeowner for info and pricing

Our home is ideal for multiple families gathering to enjoy lakefront living at its best. Beautiful lake views can be seen from every room in the house. Renovations were made to the home in 2017, updating the bathrooms, flooring, HVAC's and kitchen appliances. We offer three bedrooms with attached baths and large closets. One suite is located on the main floor with a queen bed. The attached bath has a walk-in shower. There are 2 more suites upstairs both with attached baths. One is furnished with a king bed and the other has a queen. There is a bunk loft area with a twin over full that is ideal for children. We also offer a Pack & Play so you don't have to bring your own. Additionally, a queen sleeper sofa was added in January 2024 allowing us to sleep a total of 11 people. There is a designated workspace available if you must check in with the office.

Two large family rooms feature flat screen smart TV’s and plenty of seating. Yes, we have wifi! The upstairs family room has vaulted ceilings and a wall of windows offering expansive lake views. The cozy downstairs family room features two leather sofas and a recliner, with large windows overlooking the lake. The fully-stocked kitchen has seating at the bar area or room for eight at a large dining table. A new convection wall oven was installed in November of 2018 and the cooktop was replaced in 2021. Then in 2022 all new counters and backsplash was added. There is a large laundry room with washer and dryer available for your use.

Our home features a huge wrap-around deck with rocking chairs perfect for a relaxing afternoon under a canopy of trees or you can settle in on the outdoor sofa in the attached screened-in porch. The screened porch has a large farmhouse table to seat the whole family as well.

You can enjoy roasting marshmallows at the lake side fire pit or play a game of cornhole. Kids will love fishing off the dock or taking turns on the tree swing. We also have 2 kayaks for adults and 2 smaller ones for kids to go out and explore the cove. Kids of all ages love playing or sunbathing on our water mat. We keep a few life vests in the deck box for your use as well, especially for the little ones. There is always deep enough water at the pier to dock your boat. Better yet, rent our new Tri-toon with tube for pulling and have it waiting on you when you arrive.

Our home is ideally located to Mooresville and Huntersville for shopping and restaurants. We are less than an hour from both uptown Charlotte and Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord. There are several motorsport museums nearby and the Nascar Hall of Fame.

We take great pride in keeping our home clean for our guests and have been even more vigilant during this virus scare.

Maximum occupancy of the house is 10 adults. We do not allow parties and large groups. Any exceptions must be cleared in advance.

Relaxing time at the lake

My husband and myself along with some friends enjoyed our extended weekend get away at this lovely property. We were able to rent their pontoon boat, too. The weather was wonderful. The owners suggested two amazing restaurants. The time was fun filled and relaxing in the peaceful peaceful surroundings. The home was clean and beds were very comfortable.

Great Lake House on Lake Norman - Rent the boat!

Great house and great hosts. My friends and I had a blast, and really enjoyed the tranquility of the cove that the house is situated in. The mature trees provide just the right amount of shade, while also affording great views of the water. Sunset cruises on the optional pontoon boat were fabulous. Highly recommend.

Short Family Vacation

Short end of summer family vacation. Me, my wife, adult son, and adult daughter and her boyfriend. Communicating with Cindy was a breeze. She was very helpful with any questions and very accommodating. The house was as advertised and then some. Probably one of the best equipped properties ive ever been to. It was perfect for.the 5 of us. We spent a lot of time in the screened in porch area to hang out and for meals. Also took advantage of the boat and took some nice cruises on the lake. All in all the place was perfect for us and we have already discussed coming back. This place is the real deal!

Relaxing getaway

This is our 2nd time staying at Taylor Made lake home. It is so relaxing, quiet, convenient to everything. The home is always clean, and feels so cozy, just like your own home. Always well stocked with pretty much everything you need (except good of course lol). We have never had a issue with anything except not wanting to leave. The fishing, swimming, and porch setting is wonderful. Thank you Cindy! We will be back.

Multi generational paradise

Large and spacious house for multiple family members to get together. The entire 3 generations of family really loved it here. In regards to the household supplies for cooking, this has to be the best stocked kitchen any of us has seen in a rental. Thanksgiving weekend cooking was perfect due to so many available items in the kitchen. My wife and I, and her parents, have rented many houses, condos, etc over the years. Everyone agreed this was the most enjoyable place we’ve stayed. It really felt like a home more than a rental. The kids and I enjoyed catching some bass off the dock, and everyone loved evening campfires by the lake. Parking for 4 vehicles was easy, with room for more if needed. This place is definitely on our list to stay at again.

Perfect Spot

Stayed with (2) other couples to enjoy the lake, travel to the mountains and go see Eric Church in concert. Could not have planned it any better. Cindy was a fantastic host; responsive and helpful. The house was clean, quiet and everything went as planned. Would gladly come back and stay here again.

60th Birthday Celebration!

We stayed at Cindy’s beautiful place for a long girls weekend, celebrating my mother’s 60th birthday. Down to every single detail - we were taken care of! Excellent communication, beautiful views, the house was incredibly clean and plenty of space for our group of 10. We loved the screened in porch to enjoy our coffee in the morning, and the rockers! The kitchen has everything you need to cook a lovely dinner and we appreciated how comfortable the bedding / towels were. Small details play such a hand in the overall experience and it was definitely noticed! The addition of renting the boat for the weekend was amazing and put the extra special touch to making it a special celebration for my mom. Thanks again, Cindy - we look forward to coming back to join you in the future!

Peaceful getaway at lake Norman

Convenient and inviting place, clean and peaceful. The lake is not as clean as the lakes in PA so I recommend to rent the boat from the very nice owner Cindy and enjoy swimming , water skiing and tubing outside the cove at the open water of the lake. Overall great stay in a very accommodating and clean lake house.

Lake Norman Fun in the Sun with Shade!

Cindy was a wonderful host! Communication was easy and the rental was as advertised…it was clean and had ample room for our adult group of 5….plus local family who came by each day to enjoy the lake! There was a variety of fish caught off the dock…early morning/evening were the best times for fishing! We highly recommend renting their optional Tritoon Boat as we were out on the water every day as the weather was sunny/hot….it was perfect for tubing/cruising and anchoring up in a nearby cove to swim/float. The lot provided ample mature tree shade to enjoy conversations while sitting on the multiple rocking chairs found on the porch deck for those who were not sunning on the boat dock or floating water mat! Thank you Cindy and Gary for allowing us to stay at your Lake Norman home! We look forward to staying again sometime in the future. Chris, Carole and Family

Excellent Lake Weekend

Our family of six adults and one baby spent three nights here. The setup of the house worked great for us, as we put two adults and the baby downstairs and the other adults upstairs. Each bedroom had its own bathroom which was very convenient. The house is very roomy and comfortable. The owner has stocked it with anything you could possibly need. But our best times were spent outside. We ate on the roomy screened-in porch with beautiful views. We played games and made s'mores in the backyard. We fished off of the dock. And we spent two glorious days on the lake in the pontoon boat. The location was excellent as it is private and quiet, but we were a close drive to stores and restaurants.

Absolutely Perfect!

Everything about the property was wonderful. Plenty of space inside and out to enjoy lake life. The property was fully stocked with essentials. There is a grocery store nearby. Being able to rent the boat directly from the host was an added bonus and saved time. Cindy was wonderful and very responsive both before and during our stay. We will definitely be back!

Great location, cute house

We were 2 families staying with 5 kids total and the spaces was great. Kids loved fire pit and the lake. Adults loved the outdoor dining area and deck/dock. Loved the additional touch of host providing rafts and lake toys! Cabin was very clean and very well stocked with dishes, towels and kitchen supplies. There were not any chairs around the firepit, the adults would have loved to sit and enjoy the fire longer. Also, we stayed in mid-May and the family sleeping upstairs said it was very hot despite having 2 mini splits (one was even dedicated to their room). We probably wouldn’t stay in the summer for this reason, but it worked for May.

Gem on Lake Norman

This was one of the most fully equipped VRBO homes we have rented. The kitchen is well stocked. The tree swing and fire pit totally add to the relaxation of the no wake environment of the lake. We adventured out with the kayaks. We were fortunate to rent the pontoon boat and the grandchildren loved the tubing. The owners have good quality equipment and gave clear operational instructions for a fun family weekend on Lake Norman. We look forward to returning.

Awesome Family Vacation

We really enjoyed our stay here. The home was very clean and exactly as advertised on the VRBO site. The pontoon rental was so convenient right there at the property. Cindy was very easy to communicate with before we arrived and during our stay. I would highly recommend this property for a family get away. We caught a few nice bass fishing right off the dock and we caught plenty more bass while we were out on the pontoon. We plan on booking another vacation at this property in the future!!!!

About the host

Hosted by Cindy Bradley

Host profile image
Family property purchased in 1972. Over the years, the home has been enjoyed for 4 generations. The house was built in early 1990s as first a permanent residence, and now a vacation home. Our family has spent many summers at this special spot on Lake Norman and made memories that will last a lifetime.

Why they chose this property

We chose this property due to it very scenic location and the privacy we have. We are very secluded yet we are within a few miles of all of the restaurants, shops and grocery stores you would ever need. In addition a NEW shopping complex is currently under construction and will bring many other shopping and dining opportunities.

What makes this property unique

Our home is very roomy, clean, updated and sits in a quiet cove with an awesome view. We have a screened in porch as well as a large open deck. The lot slopes gently into the water and we have both a floating dock and stationary dock with benches. All in all this is the perfect lake home to get away from it all.
