Welcome to Edgewater Escape, our lakefront home with incredible views that evoke a feeling of escape and relaxation. This is my sanctuary from life's hustle and bustle, and I'm excited to share it with you.
THE SPACE
"We travel and book with VRBO all the time and it never disappoints but this one has been my favorite." - Beth
Our 4,000 sq ft home is thoughtfully designed to comfortably accommodate up to 12 people, providing a fun-filled waterfront vacation for your group. Lake Norman is one of our family's favorite places to relax and reconnect, and I'm sure you'll create wonderful memories here too.
Upon booking, you'll receive our thorough digital home guide, packed with all the essential details about our home and Lake Norman. Whether you're on vacation, business travel, or a weekend trip, our property will meet all your travel needs.
"The first night we had an amazing pink sunset and the views of sunrise and sunset each day didn't disappoint." -Susan
OUTSIDE AREAS:
Our large, private cove is perfect for swimming and fishing, with very little boat traffic.
'You'll have peaceful waters for kayaks and SUPs, while still being minutes away from big water and the main lake.
Enjoy access to the water via dock stairs, and make use of our four kayaks, four paddle boards, and life vests. You can also rent a boat and have it delivered to our deep-water dock or bring your own and launch from the nearby public boat launch. Local marinas and dock-and-dine restaurants are just around the corner, though still out of sight.
Spend your evenings around the smokeless firepit or unwind in our 6-person hot tub with multiple jet settings and LED mood lights. Our covered deck and patio areas offer mulitiple spots to enjoy the outdoors regardless of the weather, and you can cast your favorite music to the outdoor Bluetooth speakers.
"Many locations on Lake Norman are to be avoided because of the crowds of boats on the water right behind the house. This is a quiet cove that affords peaceful swimming off of the dock and gentle waters for kayaks and SUPs." -Donna
COMMON HOUSE AREAS:
Inside, the large ground-floor family room is designed to entertain everyone. Play air hockey, foosball, or travel back to the 1980's with our vintage arcade featuring 32 popular games. The 75” TV is perfect for big games or family movies with in-ceiling Bluetooth speakers available for your enjoyment.
Upstairs, almost every room has incredible views of the lake. The open-concept living room connects to the kitchen and the covered deck spaces, offering a second 75” TV for your viewing pleasure.
"This home was perfect for our family vacation. There was space to be together and to be apart, as needed. All ages were entertained- and that’s without using the basement game room!!! My favorite was sitting on the upper porch overlooking the water every morning." -Stephanie
TELEVISIONS:
All seven TVs are Roku Smart TVs set up in guest mode. You can log into your own accounts and enjoy your favorite shows while ensuring that your accounts are automatically erased upon checkout.
