'Rusty and Brenda were wonderful hosts. We enjoyed the coziness of the one room bungalow so much, we think we could retire in a similar place. Everything you need all in one big room- fabulous! I found the view out all the windows my favorite part of the stay.
'With the cleanliness of the place and the smell of the towels I felt like I was home rather than in a hotel'
'We truly enjoyed our stay... We did not want for a thing.... This cove is quiet and filled with nature...From the hummingbirds to the blue heron. I have never seen my husband unwind and relax so quickly. We hated to leave'

'All your little extra touches were greatly appreciated. Thank you for all your hospitality and kindness'

We thoroughly enjoyed the boathouse. The place is decorated just right . It is a perfect getaway for 2 people. Your hospitality is wonderful and not overwhelming. I'll be sure to pass your info along to anyone I know coming to Lake Norman'

Can’t beat the Quiet & View

My husband and I spent six nights here. We were in the area for a family wedding at Chickadee Farm, an easy 30 minute commute. It is located in a quiet neighborhood and the waterfront views can’t be beat. Our hosts were easy to work with. The linens are nice and the king bed was very comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped and even had a spice rack for our use, which is unusual but appreciated. Easy access to groceries, restaurant, gas etc. There are several steps from the parking area down a small hill to the boathouse deck. We had no problem but just mention it in case someonewith

Hidden gem

We lucked into this hidden gem. It was absolutely wonderful and clean. We got the pleasure of meeting Brenda who was very nice to work with. Unfortunately we did not get to meet Rusty. It was so nice sitting on the deck drinking our coffee in the mornings. Everything you could possibly need is there we hope to visit again maybe in the summer time. Oh and the bed was extremely comfortable. Thank you Brenda and Rusty for opening your place.

Beautiful House on Lake Norman

The house is beautiful and immaculately clean. The décor is comfy and looks to have been updated recently. The window's facing out to the lake are a very nice touch. The setting is quiet and serene. It is such a pleasure to sit on the private deck and enjoy a book or cup of coffee. Brenda is very accommodating and quick to answer questions, however she also respects your privacy. In addition, the location is excellent for shopping and dining. Mooresville is a very short drive and offers plenty of options, however, there are wonderful restaurants a very short distance from the house. We look forwatd to our next visit to this lovely property!

We enjoyed the deck after sundown when it cooled off a bit. The dock across the lake had an obnoxiously bright light that came on and off, other than that the sounds and ambiance were very beautiful.we would not come back in the summer too hot for us!

My husband and I stayed at Brenda's place for a week while visiting our son, his wife and new grand daughter. It was so nice to come back to this place every evening and have some peace and quiet. It's a busy area but you'd never know it there. Her gardens and yard area are so nice. She was very accommodating. We'd stay again for sure.

A wonderful lakeside retreat

My husband and I stayed at this quaint Lake Norman boathouse converted into a studio apartment. We booked it for 3 nights. We were in town to see our grandsons play in a lacrosse tournament. Brenda, the property owner was very helpful and wanted to ensure that our stay met expectations. We loved the location, especially the front deck that afforded us beautiful views of the lake. We will definitely return if our grandsons continue to play in the local tournament.
