You'll find a kayak on site at this family-friendly cottage. With convenient onsite parking, you'll be ready to make the 3-minute drive to Catawba River or the 12-minute drive to Lake Hickory.

After you return, you can unwind by the outdoor pool or sip a drink on the balcony; you may also like the firepit and telescope. For a change of scenery, come inside and try your hand at billiards, or enjoy the free WiFi, TV, and video-game console.

A BBQ grill, a fireplace, air conditioning, and a ceiling fan are featured at this 3-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom rental. The kitchen is equipped with an oven, a stovetop, and a dishwasher, as well as a coffee maker, an ice maker, and a microwave. And you won't have to pack extra clothes, because you'll have a washer and dryer, too.
