Quick Getaway

We were with two other couples for a nearby event and rather than stay in another hotel, I found this wonderful lake home. The waterfront location provided beautiful views and much needed relaxation. Everything about this rental was perfect: communication and accommodations with the owner, cleanliness, furnishings, and multiple locations to simply hang out. Truly one of the best VRBO homes I've ever booked.

Perfect family house!

We spent a lovely Thanksgiving holiday at this beautiful home. There was plenty of entertainment for everyone. I would love to go back in warmer weather to make more use of the lake. The home is convenient to stores and restaurants if needed. Very nice get away with family!

Beautiful lake house

We really enjoyed staying here! The house was beautiful and spacious. Plenty of beds for our whole family as well as multiple hang out areas. Kid friendly. The provided life vests and floats were perfect for playing in the lake. We will definitely be returning for a future vacation.

Beautiful Lakefront Property

Our family of 10 stayed comfortably in this property. The neighborhood is very quiet and the children enjoyed the lake activities (swimming, canoeing and fishing) The grounds are lovely and the lakefront is peaceful. We even saw deer and bunnies and my personal favourite was listening to all the birds singing. Property owner is a sweetheart - highly recommend!

An Amazing Location, House, and Owner!

We had a handful of friends at this great property for our 17th annual Fantasy Football draft! Sara was amazing in helping us get booked and settled and we had a GREAT couple days enjoying the lake from her home! I’m 100% sure that I’ll take the championship again this year and we couldn’t have picked a better spot to come together and start the fantasy football season! Thank you Sara!

Needed More Time!

We only had a couple of days for a quick trip to the lake, but after arriving we really wished we had more time! The property is beautiful, cozy, and very functional. The teens enjoyed having the ping pong table and the quiet cove for swimming. The house was very clean and had everything we needed! Looking forward to staying here again and having the time to relax a little longer!

Weekend girls trips

We stayed at the property this weekend for a relaxing bachelorette trip. We had an issue with the AC working and Sara was extremely responsive and sent someone to the property to fix the next day. The house was clean, organized, & beautiful. The beds were very comfortable and the house was really safe and quiet. The location was perfect and I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay!!

Great summer trip

We had an excellent stay at the home. It was really close to the airport which helped with travel. We used Instacart and stocked up on food for the week. The house was clean and kitchen was stocked. The convenience of the lake was great with the kids and the canoe was a fun treat. Would definitely stay here again.

Great house and lovely lake!

This house was more than enough space for the 9 of us! Inside, there are 3 separate gathering areas, which is fantastic! In addition to the 2 outdoor spaces, we had plenty of room to spread out and hang out! The beds and linens were comfortable. The rooms felt quiet at night (and with good blackout curtains), which made for easy sleeping. The lake is so lovely and quiet as well. We hung out in the warm water most of the day! The offer plenty of floats and life jackets (as well as 6 chairs down at the dock). The ping pong and shuffleboard tables were entertaining. The owner was prompt to respond to questions. We would definitely book again.

Incredible lake getaway for family gathering.

We invited family from the Carolinas and Alabama to join us in this heavenly spot close to our niece and her daughter. The home is perfectly appointed, and stylishly decorated. Lots of spaces to gather and enjoy the time together, and rented a boat for one day to see more of the lake. Especially enjoyed the kitchen with everything we needed to cook all our meals close by. Hope to come back soon!

Beautiful lake house right near the city of Charlotte

The property was amazing. Beautiful home, very clean, with lots of amenities and amazing backyard view of the lake. Visited over the weekend with friends and family and we loved our stay. Sara was a great host, she provided all the information we needed for the house as well as information for things to do at the lake. Would love to come back another time!

Mini Lake Vacation Before Camp Drop Off

We rented this house with another family for a few days before we dropped our kids off at Camp Thunderbird. The house has amazing space! We had 6 kids and 4 adults. Our girl group LOVED the bunk room and the boys were able to have their own beds downstairs. The adults were upstairs with wonderful rooms as well. The downstairs living space was perfect for the kids to chill and watch a movie after a long day on the lake. During lunch they played a couple rounds of ping pong. The house is beautifully decorated and makes you feel right at home as soon as you walk in. The dock was great and we were able to tie our boat up to enjoy the lake. Great location! We will definitely be back!

A lovely stay!!

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful house with our adult children. It was equipped with everything we needed. We especially enjoyed swimming and fishing from the dock and taking the canoe out into the lake. The wildlife that checked in with us was an added bonus!! We loved the Sanctuary walking trails to start out our day and endless hands of euchre on the lower patio to end our nights. The only time we left in search of other entertainment was the one day we had rain. Thank you for the memories.

Peaceful and Relaxing

First of all, this place is beautiful and it has all the accommodations of home. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for our crowd with plenty of room for get togethers for meals or just relax in the back overlooking Wylie Lake. Loads to do in this home with board games, ping pong table, and shuffle board table to keep everyone busy. We hope to come back here soon. Thank you Sara, for sharing your lake home with us.

Wonderful getaway, gorgeous property and fantastic host!

Where to start... the home is beautiful, it was exactly as pictured. The lake was so much fun and the location on quiet cove on the lake was fantastic way for us to check out the area. We rented boat that was delivered to the home so we could really experience the area and it did not disappoint. Sara was super responsive and answered all my questions very quickly and clearly went the extra mile. Top notch destination, highly recommend! We'd love to stay here again in the future.

Relaxing Family Getaway at the Lake

This beautiful 5 bedroom 3 bathroom lake house was the perfect fit for our immediate family trip. We comfortably fit 9 adults, 2 kids and an infant. The house has so many nice little touches towel hooks in every room, beside table chareges for your phone, board and card games for the kids and family. The mutilpe open louge areas inside and outside spaces that this house has is wonderful. It allowed for a large group of people to spread out in the house. When it came to items for the lake the house was prepared with floating water seats and life vest for the kids. We truly enjoyed our days on the lake and fire pit. The time spent together as a fmaily in the house was wonderful. We ware already talking about plans to come next summer. The host is just wonderful and answered all my questions right away. This is a truly a lovely property in a wonderful setting.

About the host

Hosted by Sara Brennan

Host profile image
Hi, I'm Sara Brennan and I am thrilled to get to share this space with you! My family and I have made so many beautiful memories here and I can't wait for you to do the same. My husband, Mitch, and I fell in love with the house from the first moment we saw it! The A-frame allows for grand scale and beautiful windows that let so much natural light pour in! There's so many living spaces, which allows you the ability to gather with friends or distance yourself from the group for a bit and recharge (right, fellow introverts?). We knew this could be a place we could retreat to and enjoy for many years!

When I am not lounging on the dock at the lake house, I'm the CEO and Principal Interior Designer at my design firm, Sara Lynn Brennan Interiors, located in Weddington, NC. I am excited to get to share my signature design style with you in this home, as we have done for many clients in the Charlotte area and beyond over the years. When designing this house I paid careful attention to the functionality of the home and how it would be used. Not only am I a designer, I am also a busy mom of two young children, so I get the importance of design that really works! That's why you'll see hooks for towels and wet swim suits, Alexa devices for dance parties, and performance fabrics on all the furnishings! I also love how versatile this home is and how it can accommodate families, couples and even professional retreats or work gatherings!

My kids love coming here after a busy week or a day of travel baseball on the weekends. They wanted me to share that they LOVE sleeping in the bunk room and that fishing is SO fun! You will often find us floating around on tubes or playing a fun game of wiffle ball on the common area with friends! Our whole family looks forward to hear about the memories you make here and we hope that you feel "At Home on the Lake".

Why they chose this property

It's quiet and private and does not feel like you are only 20 minutes from uptown Charlotte! It's so close to our favorite restaurants, shops, arenas, the airport and anything else you'd need or want in the area. But, if you're feeling like a homebody, you can always order in from the many nearby restaurants who deliver on all the delivery apps such as Shipt, DoorDash, Postmates, etc.

What makes this property unique

Quiet Cove (no wake zone), Friendly Neighbors, Private Dock, Fire pit, Beautiful Views, Two Outdoor Living Spaces, Custom Built Bunk Lounge Room, Loft Living Space, Ping Pong, Shuffleboard, Wet Bar, Nearby Restaurants and Shopping, Good Times!
