About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Big water, wide view, amazing sunsets. RATES REDUCED for fall & winter getaways.

Our cozy cottage is welcoming and perfect for a lakefront experience! You will love hanging out on our private beach under the River Birch, while enjoying lavish sunsets.

Reserve our pontoon boat to explore the beauty of Lake Wylie. The boat will be delivered to your dock on the evening before or morning of your booking and picked up when it is time to go. Check for owners specials from time to time.

You will love the beach! It is perfect for the kids to run around and play in the sand while you watch from the patio or dock. The "bay" offers a safe swimming environment, being indented into the shoreline, feel comfortable and confident that your loved ones are safe from boat traffic. You will have access to a canoe, kayak and stand up paddle board to launch out on an adventure from the beach. It also has a great fire pit, perfect for stories and marsh mellow roasting.

Home description:
Entering the cottage, you will see a beautiful view of the Lake through the front wall which is 80% glass. The very open floor plan offers wonderful interactions with guest while cooking in the kitchen. The living room features a large flat screen TV as well as a pull out couch. After taking in the view, you’ll notice the elegantly crafted wooden interior of our new, fully renovated home. On this level you will find the second bedroom with a queen bed facing a picturesque view of the lake. This bedroom has a large private bathroom with a walk-in tile shower and marble floors. Walk out onto the deck for a gorgeous broad view of Lake Wylie as well as our private beach, lawn and dock.

Continue downstairs to enjoy yet another beautiful wide view of the lake through the many windows. Here you will find another living area great for relaxing in front of the large flat screen TV or reading a book in front of the wood burning fireplace. Also on this floor is the master bathroom with a beautiful travertine shower, large closet with a new top-of-the-line washer dryer. The master bedroom is located on this level with a king sized bed, walk-in closet and a fabulous view of the lake. Walk outside on this level to the downstairs patio - a perfect place to wind-down and enjoy a refreshing drink or simply see the beauty of the lake.

You will build many fond memories and always be welcome at our cottage!

Amazing property
I stayed with a group of 6 girlfriends for a very low-key bachelorette weekend. The house was absolutely perfect - we got some great beach/dock time in when it was sunny, and when it rained, we played games on the huge second floor screened in porch. House was pristine and adorable. We didn’t get to use the boats, but they were there if we wanted them. Highly recommend this house for small to medium group get togethers!

Awesome place!
Wonderful space to have a small family gathering (my parents, dog, and boyfriend) where we were able to enjoy each others company while have space to roam. Amazing deck off the back of the house, stellar view of the lake, and wonderful bonfire pit!

Wonderful vacation on lake front with beautiful landscaping and surroundings.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was everything we were hoping for. It was nice and cool when we arrived and we enjoyed sitting on the back porch watching the birds and the boats going down the lake. What a relaxing place. I highly reccomend this place to anyone who wants to be out in nature.

Great Home and Deck
First, Georgia (homeowner) was outstanding with communication. Quick and clear responses to any questions. Second, the house was clean and convenient in a great location on the lake. The 2nd floor screened in deck with fans was where we spent most of our time playing games, eating and relaxing. We rented a boat from Georgia and she made it very convenient (offered to drop it off at our dock). 5 stars all around.

Awesome Lake Getaway!
My wife, daughter, and I needed a place to get out for a week while our house was being worked on - and man we loved this place! The house is in great shape, has an amazing balcony to view the lake off of, and the beach area was great for our 16mo daughter. Hosts were great and had excellent communication. We'll be renting again!

BEST THANKSGIVING EVER
We loved our long Thanksgiving break stay on Lake Wylie. The house was amazing and perfect for our family of 5 - us (the parents), 2 teenagers, and grandma. In addition, it was the perfect place for all of our extended family to come for dinner/game night/football watching/boat rides who were in town for the Thanksgiving Holiday to give my sister in law who was hosting the big Thanksgiving Dinner in Fort Mill a break from the crowds. Beautiful weekend, beautiful lake, beautiful home and we hope to be able to rent it again next year for Thanksgiving.
