About this property

Lakefront Cottage Charlotte location, near White Water, Belmont, Airport

This 2 bedroom cottage style unit is on the second floor and there is a 1 bedroom unit below this one that is also available.
The building was built right on the water's edge and has an amazing view of the main channel. This in town location is close to everything. That being said there is a lot to do without leaving the property.
You can rent a pontoon boat right from your dock. If don't want to captain a boat a
tour service will pick you up from the dock and bring you back. If you are considering coming after April 2025 a new restaurant will be open and is just a short walk away.
Since this is a duplex guests should plan for a quite stay. In the common areas there is a hot tub, and outdoor shower, a boat dock and a large fire pit.
We have use guidelines that allow all guests to make sure all guests get a private use of these amenities.
A note to guests we do have a small family of feral cats that live on the property.
This place has had a long history of pets just showing up. We have found the owners of some and found homes for others. ( We have 2 dogs and 1 Cat at our home that came from there, Th cats are fixed and a feral cat organization comes by and makes sure they are healthy. We feed them and built them a home. They are mostly shy of people but you will see them around.

Great location

The unit is exactly as described - clean, well appointed, has everything you would need or want. Owner is responsive and answered all of my questions quickly. It was overall a very pleasant experience. The only thing is I had someone staying below me who warned me within the first moments we arrived that they had an unfriendly dog. The owner ironed it out (turns out the dog was small, which - personally- I still don’t want to be bitten by a small dog, but whatever) but on several occasions I did overhear them talking outside about the situation in a way that made it seem like I was exaggerating/blowing things out of proportion or something. I’m a pretty non confrontational person but I had my kids and my own senior dog there… any mom who is literally warned about someone’s unfriendly dog would have done what I did. It was an uncomfortable situation for our family until the other tenants left. Not the owners fault per se (I don’t know if he was one of the people outside talking about it) but still, put a bit of a dark cloud over a portion of our stay. I WILL say that if you’re into birdwatching you will have a wonderful time at this place. I sat on the screen porch for a few hours and recorded dozens of different birds in that time. The view is beyond compare.

Lakefront Paradise

Wow, what an amazing experience. The view is incredinle. My daughter and granddaughter and I rented the pontoon boat that was docked just a few steps away and we spent the whole day on the water We had a nice soak in the hot tub overlooking the lake that evening. I can't wait to go back!

Excellent communication and a BIG heart

I had booked this spot as a last minute trip for a family emergency, and at the VERY last minute weather cancelled my flight. Robert was SO kind from the beginning - offering condolences, help where needed, and understanding at the last minute cancellation. We will be back to stay FOR SURE! Can't wait to actually see the property in person! Cannot recommend this owner enough!

Christmas getaway.

Needed a place to stay close to Christmastown USA that would allow our doggie. This place fit the bill perfectly. Great views , very clean , excellent communication with property management !! Would love to come back in the summer and rent a boat to dock there. Easily accessible from the highway and close enough to Charlotte to adventure downtown.

I would stay here again

Had a few negative issues. When we arrived at 4pm our unit wasn’t clean. Cleaning crew came in to clean while we went out and when we arrived back later that night the flint door was open letting the heat out and we instructed them when they were done to lock door and we had the key. Host did allow us to use the unused unit downstairs while ours was being cleaned. One of the beds is on a floating stand and you couldn’t sit on the side of the bed only enter and exit the bed from the foot of bed. My biggest negative and was not listed on Vrbo was there are 6 grown cats that stay on this property that will drive you crazy. If you’re a cat person it’s not an issue but I am not. Other than that had a good stay for 2 nights!

Great Stay!

We had just what we wanted and needed during 3 day stay to visit family in the area. The beds were comfortable and the cottage/condo was very clean! We loved especially the beautiful lake views from the porch! Bob was prompt in answering any questions we had and offered help in navigating the TV/Tech issues when we couldn’t figure them out ourselves. Thank you! Bob is a very good communicator and his attentiveness made our stay relaxing and peaceful.The location is not remote but proved to be a challenge to get to the last night of our stay due to an accident which closed off access for awhile but that couldnt be helped. Would stay here again. Thanks again.

Great location. House is very comfortable with everything you need. Dock is nice. We enjoyed having our coffee out there every morning. Beautiful view from the porch.

Accommodating and Affordable and Affecting

Hidden gem, off the beaten path but accessible to all Charlotte has to offer. Great quiet spot on the lake. Perfect for someone looking for a pleasant getaway - comfortable and cozy - with enough creature comforts but not posh. Just what was needed for a quick weekend away to decompress. A dip in the hot tub, lake, fun outdoor shower, BBQ and plenty of cookware if you just want to stay in and enjoy the gorgeous view. The host was very kind and accommodating.

Peaceful lake getaway

The Lakefront Cottage is a peaceful retreat located right on the lake. We enjoyed relaxing on the porch soaking up the chill vibe of the water. The cottage location is a great balance of being near outdoor opportunities as well as food and dining and access to the highway which allowed us to explore Charlotte and the lakes. We look forward to returning in the future when we need another relaxing vacation in the Charlotte area!

About the host

Hosted by Bob Rudolph

Host profile image
We are Bob and Kim and we are lake enthusiast. We own homes on several of the lakes in the area. We presently live on a lake close by and we love this place so much we spend many weekends here. We hope you will love it as we do.

Why they chose this property

We lived here at one time and knew we could never part with it. Mile View is not an investment for us. She is part of the family. We know that if you stay here and get to know Mountain Island Lake you will be 'hooked' too.
If you need to be in or around the city for any reason there is
no other lake front property available closer or more convenient. The airport is truly just 10 minutes away.
You would never guess that you were so close to everything
when you are at Mile View. The county has bought all but three
house to build a future 100+ acre lake front park. Rosella
is surrounded by the park and lake. There is a small vacation
home to the left that you can see. Other than that it is trees,
lake and sky!

What makes this property unique

Many of our guests come to experience the National Whitewater Center. If you come, we strongly suggest you visit there. It's a man made river rapids that you can kayak or do a guided raft run. This is the only man made Olympic qualifying rapids in the country.
There is vertical rock climbing, zip lining and a lot more outdoor adventures. If you don't feel quite that adventurous there is a riverside restaurant where you can get a great meal and a glass of wine while you watch crazy people careen down a wall of water and rocks. There are also summer concerts and island sunset parties. It costs just $5 to park and nothing to visit the center. You can drive from Rosella, park your car, and walk to the river's edge in less than 10 minutes.
