Waterfront holiday rentals in Charlotte

Wow, what a location right by the lake! We absolutely loved this accommodation. its tastefully decorated, calm, peaceful and private. the living space is sociable and the front porch allows you to enjoy the view of the lake, the birds and just the wonderful peaceful atmosphere. there are kyaks and paddle boards and a beautiful dining area on the jetty. Comfortable beds, pretty linen, great bathrooms and a well equipped kitchen make it feel top end. Clearly this place is loved by the owner and we recommend it to anyone looking for a tranquil stay. we came to Charlotte for the Speedway but we're so happy we got out of town to explore the countryside and enjoy Lake Norman. Downtown Moorseville is about 20 mins away and was a lovely place for a bit if shopping and some nice coffee ☕️ Thank you Patricia. we highly recommend your beautiful place at Tranquility Cove x

Very convenient location and the pictures matched the description given on the app.

Sherry was an amazing host and the Lake Life Retreat was even better than what the pictures showed. This is the perfect location for a nice relaxing getaway. Added bonus was having 2 amazingly friendly dogs on site in Luna and Sandy 😁 We would definitely stay here again!

Laura was responsive, kind, courteous, and extremely hospitable! Gorgeous location, wonderful amenities, and easy to navigate to/around. Thank you!

I generally forget to leave reviews, but I felt compelled to share our experience here. We fortunately left the sub-par hotel we had just checked in, and found this spot. It exceeded our expectations. The apartment smelled fresh, looked new and had lots of space. The owner was very prompt answering a question and filling a need. The icing on the cake was sipping coffee by the lake on the morning of our departure. You will have fond memories staying here.

Everything was 100%, Great place to stay!!!

My family and I really enjoyed our stay! The unit had anything you could possibly need. Was great not having to run to the store to get this or that as they already had everything available. Very clean!

I have used James many times now to lodge employees from Minnesota while attending training in the Charlotte area. All aspects of our interactions have been EXCELLENT! My employees request to stay there versus a hotel. The amenities, cleanliness, location, and peacefulness of the lake far out weigh anything a local hotel can offer. He's always the first place we look to book. 100% recommended.

We had the most amazing stay at this beautiful lake house! The property is absolutely stunning—peaceful, scenic, and the perfect place to relax and recharge. The home itself was spotless, cozy, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Our host was incredibly accommodating and responsive, making the entire experience smooth and welcoming from start to finish. You can tell they really care about their guests’ experience. We truly didn’t want to leave and would absolutely love to stay here again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a serene lakefront getaway!

This lake house was everything we hoped for and more. From the moment we arrived, it felt like a true escape. The house had everything we needed for a perfect family getaway—cozy, clean, and so thoughtfully stocked. But what really stole our hearts was the view. Watching the sun set over the water each evening, wrapped in a blanket with nothing but the sound of the lake and laughter in the background, was pure magic. We made beautiful memories here and can’t wait to come back. Thank you for sharing your piece of paradise with us. Highly recommended, we will be back! We also used Lake Effects for our boat rental, they were fantastic! It’s about an 18 minute trip back to the house on the water.

Spent a weekend away with friends - 4 adults and 4 kids. This house was perfect! Kitchen had everything you need to cook, and bedrooms were great for adults and kids. The dock area was awesome - the kids fished off the dock and we all enjoyed floating/relaxing in the water! The evening sunset views are incredible. Would for sure stay here again!

Dean’s home was absolutely spectacular. Breathtaking view of the lake, very well decorated, clean, and large enough to accommodate our family. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. He went above and beyond by getting balloons, flowers and a cake that I had requested for my mother‘s birthday. We would definitely stay there again. It is worth your time to check out.

Great 4 bedroom home on the lake with 7 beds. The dock and beach were perfect for a lake getaway and close to most things to do on lake Norman. Only 30 mins from the charlotte airport, highly recommend staying here.

We had a wonderful time staying at the property on LKN. The house was absolutely perfect! Everything was clean and we felt right at home. Kitchen had everything you could want and there were plenty of linens. A welcome bowl with a s’more kit was on the counter and a rep for the host called the first day to check in on us and answer any questions! The cove on the lake was peaceful. We definitely give a 5 star rating and would definitely stay here again!

I am so happy my family and I chose this location for our family trip. It was very spacious but also accommodating for everyone to be together throughout the trip. The home is fully loaded with everything you need. The hosts were prompt in responding to any concerns we had and very polite. I would definitely recommend them to anyone I know who is interested in traveling to that area.

My extended family came into Charlotte for a wedding at Camelot Meadows, which is about a 10 minute drive away. This beautiful home was exactly what we needed; space, tranquility, beauty, peacefulness, plenty of room, and comfort! It was a total of seven of us, and we each had plenty of room, comfortable beds and large spacious bathrooms to share. The house is beautifully decorated with all the amenities you need while away from home. The view of the lake and the backyard area is incredible. We plan to come back to NC and stay at this home. The owners were wonderful at communicating everything we needed to have a nice stay. Thank you

Pleasant stay with great views, great weather, and plenty of activities!

Perfectly outfitted, immaculate, plenty of space with a lovely large sitting area overlooking g the lake. So peaceful, just perfect. Only one restaurant to walk to and we could only access the lake because of the freedom boat club, but otherwise there is no public access for swimming that we could find.

We felt right at home when we walked through the door! We love the fact that the light switches were labeled with what they were for and on top of that it was very clean inside!

Our stay was good!! The apartment was alot tighter than what it seemed in the pictures. The kitchen space is tiny!! It was good for me and my wife, but it would have been a difficult stay for us and our teenagers.

This condo was probably the most organized and comprehensive Airbnb expereinces I have had. The condo is very well stocked with everything you need. It opens right up to the pool and you have a nice view of the Marina. Great for a small family. Very easy location - right off the highway. Kim was incredibly responsive. Checking out was easy - there's a checklist to review right on the counter.

Beautiful place right on Lake Norman. Enjoyed sitting on the small outdoor patio, and walking to the nearby Wine Cottage and North Harbor restaurant. It’s about 1.5 miles to Main Street in Davidson so makes for a nice long walk.

One of the best decisions we made on a recent trip to NC was staying for 3 nights at Desiree’s lakefront condo in Davidson. Located on an inlet of beautiful Lake Norman this 2-bedroom rental exceeded our expectations. Curbside parking and ground-level access made entering and exiting the property quick and easy. And the 2-bedroom arrangement allowed us to put our 4-year old granddaughter to bed early while we stayed up to take in the view of the harbor or watch our favorite shows on the large-screen TV in our bedroom. We also enjoyed eating breakfast on the back porch and cooling off in the nearby pool. We did not have the time to enjoy all of the amenities the rental offered, but we made good use of the kitchen (with dishwasher and utensils) and the washer-dryer. Desiree’s lakefront property was a wise investment and contributed significantly to our enjoyment during our stay. I would highly recommend this rental to anyone seeking a quiet, private, and relaxing retreat!

Lovely and easy home, with a great layout and views that everyone - especially our 3 year old - enjoyed. The beds and couch were also comfortable!
