Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Lake Norman

Dear Robert and Charleen, Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us. The Bird House is truly a gem, and you are blessed to own it. The pictures on Airbnb do not do the house justice. As I entered on Wednesday, my breath was taken away; the views of the lake and natural light filled every room. The beauty of the natural surroundings, together with the well-thought-out interior design and appointments, made our experience one to remember. My mother and I truly had a wonderful and restful Thanksgiving. You had very clear notes regarding how to work everything (the blinds). Clearly, a lot of thought was put into what would make guests comfortable (lap blankets and a variety of lighting with dimmers), and all of the items one would use at home were in the kitchen, enabling us not to have one worry during our stay. We hope to return during warmer weather to enjoy the outdoors.

We had a great stay to celebrate my husband’s first Father’s Day. It was great to have direct access to Lake Norman and we had a great time kayaking and swimming with our 10 month old. Lake Norman State Park was just 15 minutes away and we had a great little hike there.

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!

Loved staying here, it’s a cozy little spot right on the lake. Neighbors are so friendly, since there’s a shared dock, you do walk through the neighbors yard just a little to get on the dock. Loved waking up to the lake everyday. My son LOVED seeing fire flies and catching them. Only two things missing, the cushions for the outdoor patio furniture and bath mats to step on after a shower. The location is perfect, not far from Publix and general shopping needs. 10/10 would love to go back again :)

This beautiful home was perfect for our wedding guests for a busy wedding weekend. We loved sitting out on the spacious deck overlooking the water and visiting with everyone. Just a short distance from Chickadee Hill Farms if you’re looking for a good place for your out of town guests.

We stayed here while working in the area. It was so nice to pull up after work, relax at the fire pit and throw a fishing line in the water. David, the host, was very helpful anytime we needed anything, and it was a great stay!

We were visiting our son at Davidson College and it was close and gave a place to place board games and sit by the fire. Love the lake. Peaceful.

Great stay!!!! Great location.

We really enjoyed our stay at Lakefront Serenity. The view was beautiful, house cozy, and loved the friendly cats! ❤️ We felt right at home and had everything we needed. The pedal boat was fun, too.

Great location - lots of restaurants and activities to do.

This was very easy to access, clear and precise directions. Also very quick and responded to messages right away. Apartment is in a nice area and walking distance to restaurants. Will stay again!

Thank you so much Udo!! We cannot recommend this place enough. It was so wonderful and cozy. The location was perfect, so nice and walkable. Udo was so helpful and the best host.

Great place beautiful property

Thoroughly enjoyed our recent stay. Cathy was responsive. The apartment was classy, clean and neat. It rained while we were there but we still got out to enjoy Davidson and some great restaurants. My husband had to hold several Zoom meetings for work and the WIFI and internet worked great. No problems. Beautiful area and beautiful home and apt. Hope to go again.

Nitin's place was in an awesome location, only a short distance from everything. Everything looked just like the photos with very helpful check in and local guide information. Thanks for the great stay!

Carmen’s place was centrally located, spotless and she helped accommodate some requests which made our stay easy. Thank you. Highly recommended.

Nice stay looks like pictures. Clean and lots to do in walking distance highly recommend

As advertised! We enjoyed are stay. Marc was easy to work with.

Outstanding location and quality apartment. Josh was so helpful both before arrival and during stay.

Linda's condo was exactly as it was described, and yes, the beautiful trees and scenery around it made it very peaceful. The condo is very welcoming, the furnishings made us feel right at home, and the location is great! Linda was always responsive and flexible during the process. It was a great experience! We will definitely be going back!

Great stay. Host was super responsive. Only a twenty minute walk from Bank of America Stadium. The place had everything a person or couple would need for a great weekend in Charlotte.

I enjoyed my stay! I had some troubles getting inside when I first arrived (completely my fault lol) but Eugenie came immediately to help me out! I loved all the natural light as well! Great location! 10/10

Even though I was only here for one night, it was one of the best places I’ve stayed at. Getting inside was made easy with clear instructions and photos. When I arrived, the home was very clean. And from the windows is a lovely view. You get a lot of good natural light in here. The bed is super comfortable, I slept great. Would stay again if in the area!
