Great property!

The property is great - very nicely kept interior. Would benefit from an exterior clean (lots of cobwebs in the window screens and on/around the deck and entry, and some overgrown bushes on the stairs) and new towels (they smell like rotten).

Great home for a family with teens!! 2nd time same house!

Had a wonderful trip with my boyfriend, another couple and four teen boys. We all had our own space and living area. The boat dock is beautiful and perfect for fishing, which the boys did each night. We rented a boat all weekend and parked it in the slip. Overall the whole weekend was a fun time and glad we rented this same house again for our annual Lake Norman Trip.

Perfect location for our weekend

Good location, (right on the lake, how much better could that be!) great house, right number of bedrooms and good set up. The 2nd bath is just outside the master so it can be easily shared with other BRs. We had a small issue during our stay that the manager took care of quickly. Highly recommend!

The house is clean and beautiful but be wary of supplies.

First off the house is beautiful. Decorated lovely, clean, in a wonderful neighborhood and plenty of space for our group of 6. But I have some complaints. I have only personally rented on VRBO twice and total on sites alike three times. Therefore maybe I’m just not aware what to check when arriving. You may want to go to the store after arrival. So they aren’t joking about minimal paper towels and toilet paper provided. I always grab a small pack of TP and paper towels. However they only provided one small roll and that would’ve been ok with my two for the 4 nights but there were no dish towels. So everything you washed including your hands you had to use a paper towel. So we ran out the last evening and had to use a bath rag to clean up some spilled Mac and cheese. Also there was no gas in the grill which I only found out after I started it, which it started, and was about to put my food on. There were supposed to be two extras on site and there were not. Now after a short freak out and some calls I went and did an exchange and the property manager did call me back pretty quickly and they did reimburse me plus some so I was much appreciative of that. They did apologize and resolve so that’s why 4 stars. Also no other basics in the pantry really but salt and pepper. Also the dish drainer is pretty but it caused a wine glass to fall and break bc it was not flat but some grass looking thing. All and all good but could’ve been great with a little more attention.

Relaxing on the lake

The property was well kept, and satisfied all of our needs while staying. We would definitely consider booking this property again in the future.

My family and I had a great time here! We enjoyed the fure pit, the dock, and friendly cove!

This house was perfect for multiple families with kids! The fence was reassuring to keep little ones from getting to the water unsupervised! Would love to visit again!

Awesome place for family get together

Very nice place and perfect space for our family get together. The kitchen is well equipped to cook anything you may need. The listing doesn't show, but there is a fire pit down by the lake that we enjoyed in the evening. We will definitely consider this place in the summer and bring our pontoon with us. The deck is large enough for all of us to hang out, cook on the grill and enjoy the weather. There are security cameras that are not listed in the listing. Would recommend this house.

Very easy rental experience. Did not know you had to climb stairs. Knew it was a split level, but thought the second floor was level with the parking level

Great stay!

My family really enjoyed our stay! The kayaks were a big hit (although the older gentleman scolded us for leaving them in his grass!) he was nice, but we did not know rules about where the Kayaks could be left when not in use during the day. My kids hopped on and off several times so we left them out until dark. I would suggest noting where the property line is located and where proper storage of the kayaks would be “allowed”. The house was conveniently located and in a quiet cove. We had most everything we needed during the stay and then some! The baby gate was not in the home so we did have to buy one once we arrived. Honestly, you need two for top and bottom of stairs since it’s a split level. We had our one year old with us so he was constantly heading toward the staircase. Otherwise, we had a nice visit and would return!

Family Vacation

Overall, we enjoyed our stay at Wood Duck Retreat. This is a pretty, updated older home with a great sloping back yard to the dock. Very nice kitchen appliances and washer/dryer. Our main disappointment was that the listing showed three queens (one with bunk above) and one king....but two of the upstairs rooms had double beds, not queens. This made for uncomfortable sleeping. When I messaged Mark regarding this, he did not respond to my message at all but the listing was changed right away to reflect double beds. I would've appreciated some response regarding this. We took our own pontoon and jetski and enjoyed being able to use the private dock. Some attention is needed to the house, such as a vent/fan needed in upstairs bathroom and more towel hooks to hang towels in upstairs bathroom. The back sliding door areas need to be cleaned - the tracks are really dirty.
