Owner was friendly and responsive, property is well-appointed and the location is great. Proximity to Charlotte, NC and Rock Hill, SC makes this a great place to enjoy a lake vacation, but have all the conveniences of a larger city.

We came down from Ohio to see family that lives in Lake Wylie. My granddaughter had a wonderful time
We had a wonderful time swimming off the dock and fishing off the dock my granddaughter even road are small raft over to the small beach on the island near the property. This is the perfect location for a family vacation. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and pots and pans.

February visit
Property was great and also enjoyed the surrounding area, especially the town of Belmont and Papa Doc’s restaurant. Spacious cabin, we especially liked the master bedroom with views and porch access. February was a little cool for the lake and the porch, but we really enjoyed the views from the porch.

Tucked Away Paradise
This sweet house is the perfect, simple, getaway from it all. My family and I lived on the dock and the amazing porch. The home had it all with a loaded kitchen filled with cooking supplies, games, puzzles, outdoor games, chairs, chairs, chairs. The spot is kept hidden back in the woods so you truly feel left alone to just enjoy the peace of nature and explore the property. The fenced area is perfect for anyone worried about little ones around the water. The deer greeted us several times a day. The blue herons and ducks often lingered to check us out. The home is older, but kept very clean and the property very well maintained. We wished we had more time to stay!

My family LOVED this property. The large screen porch and playground were a treat for my grandson and 2 yr old twin girls. The kitchen was the most well stocked kitchen of any previous VRBO properties I have used in the past, I highly recommend this property

Great time at Mom's Cabin!!!
We loved our time at Mom's Cabin. The huge screened in porch was very comfortable and had a great view of the lake. While we did not rent a boat, we made a lot of use of the dock (sitting, swimming, fishing). Everything we needed was available. Large bedrooms and very comfortable bedding.
