About this property

Modern, Chic and Cozy Cottage with private beach, boat dock on Lake Wylie!

Summary:
This gorgeous waterfront home on the point is nestled on the shores of Lake Wylie in Charlotte, NC. It's one of the rare properties on the lake with its’ own sprawling private sandy beach - ideal for young children, families, or couples to enjoy.

Take in the 270 degrees of lake view from every room of this house. Gather in the Grand room where you can enjoy the spacious and open layout to soak in lakefront panoramic views from every corner. Every window is mounted with roller blinds to offer the privacy you need for a perfect getaway. This home comes stocked with everything you could need including 4 kayaks and 2 paddle boards. You’ll love the brilliant 75" 4K TV mounted above the over-sized marble fireplace.

My mother is an excellent designer. She achieved this look of modern minimalist luxury without sacrificing the comfort and needs of a fully functioning dwelling. The kitchen comes fully stocked with all new stainless-steel appliances including a wine fridge. The washer and dryer make this home perfect for long stays.

HOME:

This single-story family-style home boasts 2 Bedrooms (1 King & 1 Queen). Just under the windows in the Grand Room is a high-end, Italian Natuzzi leather Queen-sized Sleeper Sofa (very comfortable – we have all slept in it several times). The huge open-concept living room, kitchen dining room, breakfast room, and wet bar is ideal for gathering - more seating than you could ever need making the living space never feel small. All making this a wonderful, one-of-a-kind, romantic, get-away vacation home for a quiet couple’s retreat or a fun activity-seeking family.

Located just 20 mins from uptown Charlotte, this home is convenient to all the surrounding area has to offer (mall, restaurants, grocery, marina are all less than 5 minutes from the house). Even though you are close to retail shops and malls, you'll escape from the busy world when you drive down our 1/2 mile wooded gravel road that only serves a few homes.

NEED MORE SPACE FOR A LARGER GROUP:

Our family owns 2 other lake houses in this same cove.

The home just NEXT DOOR is a 6 bedroom house that sleeps 16 - it's an enormous, completely renovated house our family calls "Sandy Cove" (VRBO Listing #1029515).

I own the 3rd house with my two brothers. It is 5 houses down, (or a 6 minute canoe ride) - please feel free to check it out, it gets great reviews! It would be a great option if you have a huge group, or reunion to be down the road from each other! (This house is VRBO Listing #565029)

OUTSIDE:

The yard is simply gorgeous with large, beautiful trees separating you from any next-door neighbors. Enjoy lunch outside or just watch the kids play on beach from the huge deck overlooking lake. Or turn on the warm café-style lighting and enjoy a glass of wine on the beach as the sun sets. Enjoy the dock perfect for laying out, tanning, fishing, jumping in the lake, or just relaxing and hanging out on the comfy Pontoon Boat... listen to your music on the wireless Bluetooth stereo while looking out at the cove. Or wind down the day eating dinner on the huge porch overlooking the lake with a cold one in your hand!

LIVING AREA:

This home has the huge open-concept family room with lots of seating, including a leather recliner for dad, and a new 75 inch 4K SmartTV (w/ DVR, Netflix, HBO, Cinemax, all Premium Package Channels) a dining room table that seats 6, wine fridge, and a FULLY stocked kitchen with dishes, glassware, pot and pans, all large and small appliances, a Kuerig 2.0, and a kitchen counter with barstool seating. The home features a huge living room, kitchen, and dining area with windows overlooking the large deck and the lake from all angles.

BEDROOMS:

There are 2 bedrooms (1 King & 1 Queen). Just under the windows in the Grand Room is the high-end, Italian Natuzzi leather Queen-sized Sleeper Sofa (very comfortable – we have all slept in it several times). Each room is equipped with remote-controlled ceiling fan w/ lights, and 55 inch 4K SmartTV’s w/ DVR, AT&T Uverse TV (all Premium Package Channels). We provide Bath Towels for 6 guests. We provide Bed Linens for all beds including the sleeper sofa for the entire house. However, guests must provide their own Beach Towels to use outside or on the boat. Guests are welcome to use washer/dryer if any sheets or towels need to be cleaned (detergent is provided).

AMENITIES:

Explore the lake on our 2 stand-up Paddle Boards and 4 sit-in Kayaks (just don't forget to wear a life jacket!) We provide tons of high-quality neoprene life jackets of all sizes. We want you to use them!! Be safe out there :) There is a huge comfy patio area right outside the family room complete with seating, outside dining, and a large stainless steel propane grill (be sure to check it when you arrive, if gas runs out - renters are responsible for replacing at any of the nearby grocery and gas stations).

AT&T U-verse TV (1000+ HD and 4K Channels including HBO, Cinemax, and all ESPN channels). The house is equipped with High-speed Fiber Wi-Fi internet that works all the way down to the beach. Or get some relaxing outdoor time and teach your kids how to fish with the 2 full fishing rods, and 2 children's rods with the provided tackle box! You can catch Catfish, Bass, Brim, Crappie, Carp, and Bluegill.

WHAT TO BRING:

Paper towels, Toilet paper, Trash bags (tall bags), any beach towels, and PLENTY of sunscreen!

We provide a set of linens and bath towels for every guest in the house. You are welcome to use the washer and dryer if you would like (but no need to wash your sheets and towels before you check out, you're on vacation!

Wonderful Second Stay

Improvements to the property, especially the landscaping, extended decking and outdoor entertainment areas are incredible since our visit last year. Our granddaughter came over for a day and loved her first boat ride in the fancy pontoon boat. Wonderful place to relax and enjoy the summer.

Picture perfect!

The property was just as pictured; perfect for our family of 4 plus our pup! The home is positioned on a quiet cove, but close to everything in town one might need. Adding a boat rented through Boat Rental USA made this the perfect vacation. We look forward to returning as soon as we can!

Amazing Lake Cottage

This beautiful little property on Lake Wylie looks unassuming from the outside, but has a beautiful interior, well manicured property, great boathouse and amazing tri-toon boat with some get-up-and-go! Had a great three days on the river! morning views from the deck, wrapped in a blanket drinking my coffee were priceless!

Lake Cottage on the point at Lake Wylie

Our stay in the cottage on the lake was perfect. The views were amazing! We didn't get to use the outside amenities but we would like to return and enjoy the kayaks and the Tritune and the pier. The house was very clean and the bedding was very comfortable. Everything you need to make this your home away from home is provided and more. Thank you David and Carol

Loved this Lake House

My family has an awesome time at the lake house. The property was beautiful and amenities were plentiful. We enjoyed swimming off the large sandy beach, kayaking, paddle boarding and just relaxing on the beach, the dock or house deck. The windows are hugh so everywhere you look you have amazing water view. The beds were very comfortable and the inside of the lake house was bright and airy and decorated perfectly. I would definitely recommend this lake house as you will definitely have an awesome time.

Amazing Property

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay (pups included) at this house. The property is as beautiful as the pictures, with a sweeping view of the lake that runs the whole length of the house. The cottage itself is adorable and beautifully designed, with huge windows, a comfortable living area, and a well equipped kitchen. The mattresses were really comfortable. David was readily available for any of our needs, and checked in with us when we arrived. We also took advantage of the boat rental, which I highly recommend. This place is truly a little gem.

Peaceful getaway

Amazing place. Really relaxing. Brought our toddler with us and she was able to play in the water on the little beach they have on the property and she loved. The property management group was slow to respond, but I'm told they were on vacation. However, the we got in contact with the owner of the property, who was super nice and helpful. You can also rent a boat directly off of the property which is awesome. Highly recommend.

Lake life with a view

The view from the house was breathtaking. The house has huge endows that provide uninterrupted views of the lake. The house is stocked with essentials. One small issue that we had was the fan in the main bedroom didn’t work, but the owner responded by providing a portable fan to use. There is a private beach area for kids to play and one to get the sun. There are plenty of kayaks for everyone to use and we had fun using those. The location is very convenient, and a short drive from shops and restaurants.

Spectacular!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cottage! The views are probably the best on the lake with sunrise and sunset clearly visible from the well maintained property. We also loved how you could sit in several areas inside and out; finding shade if you wanted, and sunshine if you desired. There was so much to enjoy outside. We loved the lake access from the sandy beach for kayaks, paddle boards or just floating around in the beautiful lake. The listing doesn't mention a fire pit, but there is one on the sandy beach! Inside, it's just as nice with several seating areas and a well appointed kitchen. If we had to make a complaint, it was that our week went way too fast. We didn't want to leave! If you're considering a stay, DO IT! The house is also very close to Charlotte and there's so much to see and do in the surrounding area but honestly, you never need to leave the property. It has it all! 5 STARS!!!

Fun lake house stay

We enjoyed our stay at this lake house. It's in a cove area so the boat traffic is minimal which made it a great place for kayaking. Their boat house was well equipped with everything for a fun lake stay (6 kayaks, life jackets, paddleboard, tubes). Nice beach area with firepit. The house was spacious with a lot of seating areas indoors and out which we loved and a well stocked kitchen. Would stay here again!

Even better than the pix- perfect place!!!

Hard to believe but it’s even better in person than the listing shows. The cove on the lake is nice and quiet- we did lots of paddle boarding and kayaking and it was super calm. We rented a boat and went tubing - the lake was not busy (we’d never been so weren’t sure what to expect). The house is super comfortable- perfectly clean, everything needed for cooking is here, furniture, beds, linens all comfortable and well maintained. Property manager was super responsive to all our questions. Highly recommend for a great getaway!!

About the host

Hosted by Lakelyne

Host profile image
My name is David (34 years old). I'm lucky to own this beautiful home with my parents. My family grew up on Lake Wylie and my (growing) family continues to enjoy it today! We are proud to share it with friends, family, and our renters. I'm a new father that works here in Charlotte - and I'm a host at heart. I love travelling, football, technology and gadgets, water sports, adventure, and experiencing the world! I take pride in my city and state, so I'm always urging people to experience as much of it when they visit from out of town. There are so many cool things to experience in Charlotte - get out there and enjoy it!

What makes this property unique

Our house is only 20 minutes from uptown Charlotte (Close enough that Uber works in our area too!.) Just minutes from Carowinds theme park and located in a quiet, secluded cove. We are also very close to the US National Whitewater Center which is one of the coolest attractions in Charlotte in my opinion.

The house is just 2 minutes down the road from McDowell Nature Center and Preserve.

Check out all that Charlotte has to offer if you are looking for some cool activities during your stay!
