Family vacation
We enjoyed everything about our weeklong stay at the Kiser Cottage. The house was so unique, down to the spiral staircase leading up to the loft that our kids loved. The boat rental was so convenient, and we spent every afternoon/evening at the dock. Earl was a great host and we had everything we needed for a relaxing week at Lake Norman. Highly recommend this property!

Mr. Kiser was so nice and communication was perfect. The property had a great view and the convenience of having a pontoon available to rent at our own dock was fantastic.

Anniversary Getaway
The whimsical cabin settled among green grass, lovely trees and a minute from the lake with gorgeous sunset views was a wonderful retreat . The cabin was spotless and Earl and Cheryl were wonderful hosts attending to details. We appreciated the comfortable beds and the pontoon outside our door! We both observed how our grandchildren would love the diving board. Thank you for a relaxing getaway

Such a cute cottage!! We had so much fun and enjoyed all the lake property had to offer. Owner Earl came by with his sweet dog Luke to welcome us and offer any assistance. We had access to a paddleboard and kayaks as well as a diving board and Lily pad. Made for a nice relaxing girls trip! We'll definitely be coming back thank you!!

The house was wonderful - on beautiful land, with incredible access to and views of the lake, and so much available to us - boat, kayaks, paddle board and diving board. Plus enough towels and nice linens which are rare in rentals! The owner is working on a few house upgrades to add some privacy for visitors. We didn’t need it but would be helpful for couples. Highly recommend. Thank you Earl and family!

Great Host
There were a few technical issues while there, but Earl responded to them very quickly so that they had very little impact on our stay. Things are going to happen from time to time, the true test is how your host responds to them. Earl went above and beyond getting them resolved quickly!!!

A fantastic stay at your house. The location was perfect and all the facilities available.

Beautiful Lake Norman Cottage
The lake cabin was wonderful!! Clean. The views of the lake were perfect… we never left the property except to go to Publix a few times. My 13 yo loved the diving board off the dock and the boat was great to have at our disposal whenever we wanted to go out. Earl was an amazing host who helped us with anything we needed. We will definitely be back again. Beautiful cabin, breathtaking Lake Norman and amazing host all add up for a perfect vacation!

The most perfect lake house ever!
A group of friends and myself traveled down to Charlotte to celebrate the Fourth of July and visit a friend who moved down this year. First let me say - Earl and his family are amazing! The house sits on the middle of the their family compound and multiple generations play a role in its success. Although some may be put off by reading that there are family members in the first floor apartment or neighboring houses - don’t be! This family was so sweet, the most helpful and will also give you your space/privacy if that’s your vibe (we also didn’t see the couple the lives downstairs once- it’s like you have the whole place to yourself). We had 3 couples and 2 brothers on the trip and this house was perfect! The rooms are very large and each floor had their own full bathroom. It’s an open concept house that’s hard to conceptualize online but the layout is perfect for hanging out together all day and then having privacy at night. The house also has a beautiful deck and screened in porch that could fit your whole group while everyone enjoys a nice morning cup of coffee or a evening night cap. We also rented Earls pontoon boat to take out on the 4th and it was a dream. It comfortably fit our entire group and we had a blast out on the lake. Although it’s an older boat compared to local rentals it has everything you need for a day on the water and the sound system is brand new! We arrived before checkin in so we could maximize our time on the water and Earl was very accommodating. He allowed us to drop our bags and put groceries in the fridge before hitting the lake. When we returned in the afternoon the house was IMMACULATE!!! The ladies who tidy up this place take a ton of pride in doing so and it was just the nicest thing to come “home” to. There is a Publix and ABC store 7 minutes down the road so grocery runs were a breeze (there are hardly any Ubers/Lyfts available so I suggest renting a car). Our entire group had the BEST time here and haven’t stopped talking about it since. We are already planning our next trip down! 10/10 would recommend staying here if you are looking for the perfect lakeside getaway!

The right balance
We found Lake Norman the perfect balance of low key and fun stuff to do. This property offers breathtaking views, direct access to the lake, and a terrific yard for fun right at the house. We rented the boat which was a highlight of our trip. The house needs some work and Earl is aware and working to make improvements. Earl was very responsive and offered solutions to all the issues we faced. We appreciate his dedication to making this trip a memorable one.

Overall review
Proper manager was very friendly. I expected it to be nicer. Property needs some work. Did not plan on having to change out the batteries in the smoke alarm myself. Also it would be nice if there were actual door handles on the inside of the sliding glass doors. As listed pets are not welcome but the property owner made an exception for my service dog. However, I didn’t expect the property owner to add on an additional cleaning fee for having a service animal and I’m pretty sure by doing so that violates some federal laws. Also it would of been nice if there wasn’t dog poop all over the backyard and smashed into the ground from the individuals living on the ground floor of this property

The lake house was amazing!! My family and I had a great getaway at the lake house. Earl is the best host and super cool guy! The house was clean and came with everything you could possibly need.

Great place for a family of 5 or 6
Working with Earl was great. View and access to lake was wonderful. Place was clean and also close to anything you needed, stores, restaurants, and activities. We used the boat (reasonable rate) which was great not to need to go find one ourselves. We will definitely stay there again! Thanks again Earl and family.
