Family vacation

There was plenty of room for all of us. The beds were comfortable and the bunk room was enjoyed by the kids. Everyone enjoyed the pool. Nancy left snacks on the counter for us, and she responded quickly to my messages.

Weekend to remember!

The property was exactly as described and PERFECT for our family and friends! There were 11 of us in for our son's wedding. From ages 10 to 79! Nancy's home provided more than enough room and was everything you could imagine!! We arrived to a super cute peg board congratulating the new Mr. & Mrs., lots of fun snacks and also a personal note on the chalk board. I am a very detailed person so this meant the world to me! From beginning to end, Nancy ALWAYS answered every question right away. The home was very clean and it literally had anything and everything you could need for a wonderful weekend. Just bring clothes and food!The host provides tons of extra linens and there is easy access, a great convenient neighborhood & the property is GORGEOUS!!! I could continue on and on!! ALL 11 of us were VERY HAPPY with Nancy's home!!! We can't thank you enough, Nancy!!

Beautiful Charlotte Family Home

I can’t say enough nice things about this home! We came to Charlotte for a family vacation with small children and wanted a city with plenty of activities to choose from. We had to have a house with a pool. This pool is the largest single family home pool I have ever seen! Bigger than some hotel pools. The home is so large and has plenty of choices of places for people to gather or be separate if wanted. Huge bedrooms, most with their own private bath! But what made this house better than any other VRBO home is the amenities. Nancy went above and beyond with supplies. We didn’t have to use any of our own toilet tissue, paper towels, kitchen items, even had coffee, Keurig, tea, fully stocked spices, sugar, everything you need to cook. It is so conveniently located to any activity you want to do. Nancy responded to our questions right away. I would give this home a 10 if I could!! Thanks again Nancy!!

About the host

Hosted by Nancy Hommes

I grew up in Charlotte and have lived here most of my life. My husband is from Holland. We have 3 older kids. We have traveled extensively throughout the US and Europe, and have been fortunate to stay is some wonderful HomeAway locations.

Why they chose this property

We love this house because of the setting and the location. It is very unusual to find a home in Charlotte with this kind of lot. There is a stream running through it, and it is so peaceful. Deer, owls, frogs abound in the middle of the city. It's really a wonderful house.

What makes this property unique

This house is restful and peaceful. Enjoy coffee on the porch watching the deer scamper through the yard, while being just minutes from shopping and the movies! The little bridges over the creek are charming. Huge private pool, a great fire pit, and the awesome basement make it an ideal location to hang out and relax.
