We use VRBO regularly when we travel as a family and this home ranks as one of our top favorites yet! Starting with Bob, our host, he was warm, welcoming and responsive from beginning to end. The home itself is spacious, clean and has a very large kitchen with ample counterspace for family gatherings. We came the 2nd week of December, and the house was festive with lights, a Christmas tree and decorations inside and out. The location on the lake is peaceful and relaxing and a short drive to everything in Charlotte. The bedrooms are extremely comfortable, and the bathrooms spa inspired. There is a primary living room, and a secondary family room. The weather was very cold during our visit, and the house heated beautifully. The house had games ready, a fully stocked kitchen, butler's pantry, coffee bar, firepit, and smart TV's. There is a steam room/shower in the downstairs bathroom and an amazing soaking tub in the master bath. We really can't imagine anyone being disappointed with this home and appreciated the hospitality we received.
