Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Catawba County

This charming cottage-style home was ideal for our getaway. It was clean and ready for use, conveniently located near the water, restaurants, and shopping. I appreciated having chairs on the porch and near the fire pit. Anne was proactive in her communication and replied promptly. We had a lovely time and recommend this location for others looking to disconnect.

Perfect home on the lake for us while in town for a long weekend! We will book again next time we are in Hickory!

Enjoyed my stay the owner was very helpful and responsive will book with her every time

Matt was quickly responsive when needed. Thanks again.

Loved staying here, it’s a cozy little spot right on the lake. Neighbors are so friendly, since there’s a shared dock, you do walk through the neighbors yard just a little to get on the dock. Loved waking up to the lake everyday. My son LOVED seeing fire flies and catching them. Only two things missing, the cushions for the outdoor patio furniture and bath mats to step on after a shower. The location is perfect, not far from Publix and general shopping needs. 10/10 would love to go back again :)

Review Title: Perfect Lakefront Stay for a Multigenerational Family Our family, spanning three generations, stayed at this beautiful lakehouse over New Year’s, and it was truly the perfect getaway. From retired grandparents to working professionals, two small children, and even our dog, the house had something for everyone. The lakefront views were stunning, providing a peaceful backdrop for morning coffee and evening conversations. The house was thoughtfully equipped with modern conveniences, making it both comfortable and functional. It truly felt like a home away from home, with cozy spaces to gather, a well-appointed kitchen, and plenty of room for everyone to relax. The owners clearly take pride in the property, and the attention to detail was evident. Whether it was enjoying family meals together, taking in the serenity of the lake, or simply spending quality time, this house offered everything we could ask for. We left with wonderful memories and would highly recommend!

This home is one of the best we have ever stayed at. It is beautiful, well appointed and perfect in every way. So quiet and peaceful yet close to shopping and great restaurants. Easy ride to Blowing Rock and Boone. Sit on the back porch for morning coffee and enjoy the sunrise and the front porch for evening sunsets. We appreciate Amanda sharing her home. It was the perfect setting for our family visit. We will be booking this home again when we are in the Hickory area. Thank you Amanda for your hospitality.

Carol's house is very nice and there is a lot of cooking accessories is available on her kitchen. A lot of toys is in the house, we enjoyed a lot. There is one room in this house, its the best place if you want to do office work from there. Its been a nice stay, I will book more if i need to visit that city again....

Beautiful home with lots of space for my family and I. Close to stores and restaurants with lots of options to choose from. Friendly, informative, and quick responsive host! Made North Carolina feel like home!

This place worked perfect for what we needed. Loved it!

Great place to stay with kids! The bunk beds were comfy and the game room was a blast. The place was very clean! We will definitely stay again if in the area.

Everything was fantastic! Such a cute retreat away from the city. Thanks for everything!!

Nice escape from the city, very quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub, the house was great! Ashley was prompt to respond and we felt right at home. The nearby shopping center was also super convenient for last minute needs.

The tiny house was perfect and comfortable. Views from the porch of the sunset were great.

Our family gets together every year for a family vacation. We chose this lake house for its location as well as the fact that it had so many things to keep us busy, regardless on how the weather turned out. We loved the kayaks and the fact that multiple were provided. The access to the lake was amazing so we could fish any time. The home is beautifully decorated, so much attention to detail. The home provides board games for your family, floats for the pool, speaker for music poolside, among many other things. We loved roasting marshmallows at the fire pit overlooking the lake. The kids never complained about lack of things to do. We especially loved playing darts. It was such an amazing home that it got all of the kids off of electronics. We had an issue with the water and John was super responsive and fixed it right away. He was so responsive. The home is only minutes away from a large shopping center as well as a boat rental company. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

We loved this property! It’s in a beautiful, peaceful neighborhood and everyone is super friendly. We played in the game room (a great new addition), swam in the heated pool, kayaked around the lake, made a campfire, played games in the spacious lawn, and relaxed with our kids. The beds and seating areas were comfortable and everything was clean. The hosts are quick to respond if you have any questions. There are a number of good restaurants, coffee shops and creameries nearby. There’s also a grocery store a few miles away that we visited a couple times for fresh fruits and pastries. If you’re considering this property- you won’t be disappointed. Between watching the lake’s heron named Harry, seeing all the turtles, frogs and wildlife… you’ll be totally relaxed. Great visit!!

Perfect place to stay. Walkable distance to downtown businesses and restaurants. Clean inside, comfortable bed, and John was very responsive when I asked him some questions. I would recommend this place if you just need a short stay and want to be near a lot of entertainment. PS...You can't hear the entertainment, just close to downtown

Stunning place by the lake - perfect for our family with small kids. We booked very last minute, and everything was great. Amy was super responsive and helpful, and sorted out some minor issues really quickly!

This place is absolutely beautiful, peaceful and just what our family needed. So grateful that we were able to bring our sweet dog too. Our son is way into fishing-the dock was exactly what we were looking for. LeeAnn is an incredible host, answered any and all questions and the place was exactly as she described. We already know that we will be back and can’t wait to plan our next visit.

Giovanni was an incredible host. Very responsive, friendly, and outgoing. The home was a perfect place for my family and friends to gather from several points of this country. I highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a lake getaway vacation. In addition, I also recommend if you need a boat to look up boat rental company Lake Norman Stay and Play. Giovanni, Thank you for all your hard work, and helping make my family vacation the highlight of the year!

The house was perfect for us and our pup. Thanks!

I had a truly lovely stay at this chalet. From the moment I arrived, I was struck by how clean and well-maintained everything was — spotless interiors, fresh linens, and a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. The peaceful surroundings made it the perfect place to unwind and disconnect. It felt like a little slice of nature's tranquility. What really stood out, though, was the host. Warm, attentive, and genuinely kind, they made sure I had everything I needed without ever being intrusive. Their local recommendations were spot on, and it was clear they put a lot of thought into making guests feel at home. If you’re looking for a serene escape with top-notch hospitality, this chalet is a fantastic choice. I will absolutely return.

Absolutely beautiful home! The views from the porch are just amazing. The house was spotless and kitchen was very well equipped. Perfect home for a family vacation. Nice modern furniture and bed linens were good quality and comfy. Jessica was very helpful with any issues we had and quick to respond. Would highly recommend!!

Perfect location! Very quaint, serene and very well maintained home and neighborhood. I immediately felt right at home. I hated to leave. Thank you Karen! Kindest. - Garth
