Waterfront holiday rentals in Catawba County

Had an amazing stay. Was very peaceful and extremely clean. Felt great walking into the home.

Blin's place was spotless, comfortable and the view was stunning - Fall leaves were in full color while we were there. The bathrooms were spacious and clean - the water was hot with good pressure. The king bed in the master was supportive and comfortable. I heard no complaints about the bunk room beds the kids used. The kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, bowls and cooking utensils. All appliances worked well. It was muddy while we were there so we rolled up the light colored rugs so we didn't accidentally stain them. We had our dog with us and there was plenty of area for him to run and the streets were quiet for a walk along the road. There are steps all the way to the water which will be amazing for lake access in the summer. As it was cold while we were there and the lake was still recovering from Hurrican Helene, we did not get in the water. All in all it was a great place to stay.

Karen was helpful in sending recommendations and communication regarding the impact of Helene on the area. Always answered questions and put us at ease. The suite was beautiful and the amenities were nice and the views were great. Instructions were helpful. I would highly recommend this suite

My husband and I had a great stay at the LakeLife Retreat- our hosts Sherry and Dan were friendly and had many great recommendations for our stay. The co-hosts Sandy and Luna were also friendly and delightful to visit with. My husband enjoyed fishing off the boat dock. The grounds were beautiful and the retreat was cozy, clean, and comfortable. Thank you Sherry!!!

I had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The place was spotless and beautifully set up, making it feel like a home away from home. The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet, perfect for relaxing after a long day. It had everything I needed for a comfortable stay, from the essentials to thoughtful touches that made it feel extra special. Jeff, the host, was incredibly helpful and always quick to respond to any questions I had about the house. I highly recommend staying here – it’s a fantastic spot!

I really enjoyed my stay here. The view was spectacular, the area was peaceful, and it was close to lots of things to do. The apartment was stocked with everything I needed for the stay. I enjoyed the decor and I felt comfortable and right at home when relaxing in the space. The hosts were friendly and responsive. I would stay here again.

Great weekend spent at Lore’s place. Pictures do not do it justice. Better than we expected. Very clean and everything you would need. The design of inside was beautiful. Every detail Lore has covered and more than you need. Will definitely be back again. Kudos to a wonderful place.

The apartment is beautiful. We had a peaceful stay. I liked the big windows overlooking the lake. I enjoyed picnicking on the dock and kayaking around the cove.

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 loved our stay on Lake Norman! Couldn’t beat the location as it was right on the water and super close to the wedding venue we were traveling there for. Plenty of space and plenty to do on site for our crew. Host was very friendly, responsive, and gave clear check-in/check-out instructions. Huge bonus was access to kayaks to take out on the lake. Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful views of the lake! The house was great - very clean and spacious!

Amazing property. Everything was perfect! Will definitely book again. Host was very responsive and helped with any concerns. Enjoyed our stay, we didn’t want to leave.

This home is beautiful, well laid out and perfectly equipped for a relaxing stay. The location is ideal, with beautiful views of Lake Norman in a quiet neighborhood, yet close to shopping and great restaurants. Giovanni is an excellent host who responds quickly and kindly.

Our stay at this Lake Norman property was absolutely fantastic! The location is unbeatable—right on the water with stunning views and easy access to everything the lake has to offer. The home was spotless upon arrival, and you can tell the hosts take great pride in maintaining a clean and welcoming space. One of the best features was having the boat available to rent on-site—it made exploring the lake effortless and so much fun! We also loved the added amenities like the fire pit, hot tub, kayaks, and fishing poles, which made for great memories with our family. The fireplace inside was perfect for cozy evenings, and all the rooms were spacious and comfortable. The hosts were incredibly attentive and made sure we had everything we needed for a perfect stay. We highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing and fun-filled getaway on Lake Norman. We’ll definitely be back!

Beautiful house and location! Shady Shoals was perfect for our spring getaway. You can really tell that the owners put a lot of thought into providing everything guests might want or need during their stay. Brinnan was very helpful with any questions we had and checking in and out was a breeze. We loved the screened in porch, big kitchen, and serene setting. I loved being able to sit on the dock and read while the kids enjoyed the lake. Be sure to visit Lake Norman State Park - a short drive away with lots to do!

My family and I had a wonderful time! The location is Beautiful and peaceful. The house was well equipped, the host thought of everything, plenty of activities for everyone in the family, we would definitely stay here again! Thank you!!

Wonderful condo!! Was great with a Dog! It was very clean, great location!! Top pick for visiting Lake Norman!! Will definitely book again!!

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!

Kim's home was amazing! Fully stocked, very clean, and felt just like home. Kim was also very responsive and accommodating. I look forward to staying here again when visiting Davidson.

Condo was just as described and exactly what we needed. It was clean and well appointed. We appreciate all their efforts. Keyless entry was easy to use and helpful.

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!

The condo was well equipped, nicely furnished and decorated. Kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. Unit on second floor elevator close by. Parking was on street but we had no problem finding convenient spots. Shower pressure was great! A/C was not locked at a temp which is a must for a hot sleeper. We definitely recommend Katie’s condo!

From check in to check out, our stay was perfect. The mornings were peaceful, watching the sun rise off the lake and evenings enjoyable watching the sunset. Our son enjoyed spending his days fishing off the walking deck and the local wine bar was a must have. There was also plenty to do within a short 1 mile drive. Katie’s place was clean, well furnished, comfortable and made our holiday trip a great experience.

Katie was super responsive to messages & txt. Very proactive in communicating a wifi interruption from the carrier & providing alternative access. Super clean & comfortable unit. Good location yet quite surroundings.
