Cute waterfront house. Sunsets were amazing and the fire pit was used every night. Excellent hiking opportunities all within 20 minutes of the house. Kitchen and bathrooms were stocked. However the beds were killer. The mattress was so thin we were sleeping on the frames.

Home was extremely clean and as expected, based on photos and the description. Hosts were very responsive and available from check in through check out. There was an issue with the hot water and they had a new hot water tank installed by the next morning. The home was comfortable, well maintained and had everything we needed for our stay. The beach and dock were easily accessible and also clean. I would highly recommend this home to those wishing for a lake house experience!

Perfect spot
The house is clean and well stocked with a big wonderful screened in deck. Communication with the owner is excellent. The location on the lake is fantastic! We rented the pontoon boat and spent the entire day on the water. We will definitely return!
We loved the Pearl! Nice back porch, beautiful beach-had everything we needed!

Wonderful lil cottage!
What a wonderful place with a stunning view! The cottage was perfect for the three of us. We loved having access to the private beach with all the water toys, and relaxing in the hot tub each night was a highlight. The location was also perfect — so close to Charlotte. We hope to come back someday!

Very nice place!
This place exceeded our expectations. The cabin is very cozy and comfortable, the beach is a real gem and the views are wonderful. We stayed at The Pearl for Christmas 2024 and it was really great. Would strongly suggest for a couple or small family looking for a comfyt get-away on the water close, but not too close, to Charlotte.

The peaceful Pearl
staying at “ the Pearl “ exceeded our expectations as far as years of booking, quiet, beautiful getaway at a cozy cottage on Lake Wylie, North Carolina!!!
Georgia, the property manager was the best communicator and truly was available for any questions or concerns with our stay. Talk about a beautiful view! It was the best. We are looking forward to a future stay during warmer weather sooner than later!

Loved this little cottage! Right on the lake. Sand beach.
Everything we needed in the kitchen. Comfy king-size bed and good hot shower. The sunsets were beautiful.
Looking forward to future visits in warmer weather!

Fall Break
We came up to The Pearl for a long weekend over Fall Break and had the best time. The cottage is the perfect lake house and the large property and beach were great for my 2 boys ages 10 & 11. We can't wait to come back and make this an annual adventure for our fanily.

Perfect family get away
Just love this cottage on the lake. This is our second time coming here, and already planning our next one. Perfect location . Secluded, yet close to everything. The back porch is perfect. We are every meal out there and watched storms roll through. We played for HOURS in the lake. We will be back !

Awesome lake experience
We loved the lake experience that this cottage offered. The lake was clean and the water was warm. Having the pontoon boat rental at the property was fantastic, and a lot of fun. The property manager Georgia was awesome, easy to work with, and readily available. My kids keep asking when we get to go back to Lake Wylie!
