You'll find a kayak on site at this pet-friendly cottage. Thanks to the convenient onsite parking, you can either leave your vehicle behind and enjoy a short 5-minute walk to Lake Norman, or easily tackle the 6-minute drive to Lowe's Corporate Headquarters.

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

As you settle into this 6-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom rental, you'll find a living room, a fireplace, air conditioning, and a ceiling fan. The kitchen is equipped with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a microwave and cookware. And you won't have to pack extra clothes, because you'll also have a washer/dryer.
