Exceptional VRBO

We use VRBO multiple times a year for travel and hands down the BEST listing and property yet. The owners thought of everything that you may need and when I say everything, I mean it. Home was very clean, updated, exactly as described if not better. Quick response time when I had a question and would 100% stay there again and recommend without hesitation! VRBO should pay them to provide classes on how to maintain an excellent stay!!

About the host

Hosted by Diane S Weyant

My husband, Kenny, and I have lived in NC most of our lives with our now adult kids. We have designed our place with family fun in mind and hope our guests make special memories here. We often travel with extended family and wanted our second home to reflect what we look for in a vacation home. We hope you enjoy it!

Why they chose this property

We explored many lakes in NC and VA and settled on Lake Hickory because of its cleanliness, size - not too big for overcrowding but big enough for all the amenities, and the relaxed, peaceful atmosphere.

What makes this property unique

The view and peacefulness of the screened in porch with a morning cup of coffee or tea is extra special. If it is a bit cool, the fireplace is ready to take the chill off.

The lower level game room is a great place to gather for movie night, a game of foosball or darts, or walk out to the patio with the grill and nearby fire-pit offering a relaxing evening gathering place.
