About this property

Cozy Lake House! Large Yard! Sleeps 8! Boating options available on site!

Come enjoy the relaxing environment of this beautiful lake front property, we refer to as "The Little House." With a large back porch perfect for marveling over the sunset, an acre yard, and dock perfect for day time sunbathing, you will have nothing short of an amazing time at this cozy home. It is located on a private drive in a great location. The neighborhood is quiet and nice for walks or runs, while restaurants, bars, grocery stores, and convenience stores are all close in vicinity (less than 10 minutes away). 2 single kayaks and a paddle board are included, as well as a propane grill and fire pit. If you’re interested in our pontoon rental please ask!
Full disclosure— We are dog friendly and this is a 1960s home. As you can see in the photos, there is wood paneling and older appliances. If you want a new, updated home that is not dog friendly, STAY ELSEWHERE. This house is not for you! People who want to enjoy the lake, bring their pets, and get a lake house feeling for a great price, stay here! This is a great VALUE stay!

Gorgeous Lake views
Charming house with floor to ceiling windows provided us a panoramic view of the lake. Plenty of space for entertaining inside or outside. We spent most of our long weekend on the back porch enjoying the view and the bbq grille. Also we liked the proximity to plenty of restaurants and breweries - within 5 to 10 from the house. Would definitely stay again.

Denver Boat House
We enjoyed our stay at this home. The description is very accurate. The back porch was our favorite spot for morning coffee and sunsets. Our dogs enjoyed the large yard and walks in the quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed the convenience of stores nearby. Renting the pontoon boat was a definite perk!

Great stay!
Just got back from 5 days at this property. Everything worked as it should. While it is a little dated, it is clearly posted in the description. Went with the family and dogs. The location was excellent. The view was beautiful and it was nice and quiet. I would definitely recommend and stay again in the future.

Lake Norman getaway
Well if you plan on boating and using the dock and or hanging out outside this place is lacking upkeep and maintenance. No usable grill and the yard was full of branches sticks and dirt. Hedges were grown up to the eaves. The dock walkway is a barely hanging in there. Metal rod holding the walkway up is halfway out and needs fixed. The electrical outlet is deteriorated and needs replaced. Had to make do with what we had to charge our boats. Very unsafe. No light bulb on dock and when we put one in there the neighbor made us take it out. She says the light bothered her at night. Living areas were okay but outdated. I’ve fished all over the Southeast and stayed at many places and this one was my least favorite.

Awesome place
We loved out stay the lake house. The house was clean, the location was quiet, the cove was quiet and clearly a no wake cove, the property was nice, there wasn’t anything about the place we would have changed. Was it all brand new? Nope. Did everything work? Yep. We fixed steaks on the gas grill, cooked side items in the house, and we wanted for nothing. We are already talking about when we are going to go back, and we rarely visit the same rental twice, so that says a lot. As a side note, we ate at Chillfire Grill for my birthday, and it was easily a top 3 dining experience, so it is highly recommended.

What a nice spot to sit and enjoy the lake. The house was rustic and nice. We wish we could have rented the pontoon boat but it was too early in the season. Marty was always available and quick to respond. Overall a very enjoyable stay.

The Sister House
We loved our stay on Lake Norman in this sweet 1970’s time capsule! The location and lake access were perfect!!! We loved the flat yard- it was perfect for yard games and evening bonfires! The only thing to be improved upon was the cleanliness of the home especially in the kitchen and bathrooms. Our host was very helpful and responsive to all messages and we would definitely rent from Marty again!

About the host

Hosted by Martha Wilcox

Host profile image
My name is Marty and I manage my families rental properties here on Lake Norman. I am originally from West Virginia but made Lake Norman my home in 2015. I manage the 3 rentals on the property for my family, and live close by to easily over see them all. I am also a licensed real estate agent in the area. If you are potentially interested in residing in the area please do not hesitate contacting me for more local information!

Why they chose this property

This property really allows you to experience the beauty of Lake Norman with its open and inviting lay out. It has a 1.5 acre lot and large back porch. The house is slightly back in a cove, but just around the corner is open water and the main channel. Being in a cove, the house is very relaxing and quiet. My favorite part is the fact the house faces the west and you get the most breathtaking sunset!

What makes this property unique

The house has a very open floor plan and glass sliding doors that give you a full view of the lake from where ever you are in the house. It was built in the 1960s, so I would definitely say it has a retro and unique vibe. For example, the house has a surround sound intercom system you control from the kitchen and can hear from any room! Turn on the local FM station and you can jam throughout the whole house! The house also has an indoor fire place and an outdoor fire pit. I also have included a propane grill, with 2 picnic tables (one on the patio, one on the dock) and patio furniture so ample enjoyment is possible. There are also kayaks and a paddle board!

The dock has 2 ladders for you to go in and out of the water. It has a picnic table at the end, and a floating piece to attach a boat.

If you are interested in renting lake toys, I rent out the pontoon boat. Westport marina (very close to the house) rents out practically every water toy you can think of.
