10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2026
We and guests (9 adults, 2 teenagers, and two small children) spent 4 Days around the 4th of July while attending a family reunion at my brother's house on Lake Hickory. The house was very nice for our purposes and we had about 20 people from the Reunion come over and watch the Fireworks from the dock - you had an excellent view of the fireworks set off at the Stadium and another nearby show on Lake Hickory. Our guests used the kayaks and other rec room items. The kitchens was well stocked with utensils. The Host was easy to contact & responsive when additional info was needed. The only downside for us was that bathroom towels & wash cloths were not provided (was made clear in the reservation terms) and it was not practical to ask our guests who were either flying in or driving long distances to bring their own. We ended up buying towels for all rooms on-line and having them shipped to my brother's house as a result.

We stayed here for a large family reunion. The space and amenities were just what we needed for a large group with kids. The host was fantastic, very responsive to anything we needed. The property is a little old and run down, but it served our needs fine. We appreciated the well stocked kitchen of utensils, pots, pans, etc. We were able to easily make a full Thanksgiving meal.

We had trouble getting into the house due to some glitch with the VRBO website because we were not given the lockbox code until the last minute. Had to call VRBO to get code.Older property and it showed.Outside was not neat, clean and orderly.Lake kayaks and floats were not clean and fully functional.Outside path lights were on during the day and off at nightLight switch for lake side outside night light was nonfunctional.The cleaning fee seemed disproportionate to the level of cleanliness of the house.No bath towels or toiletries items were provided which we knew in advance but for the price something should have been provided.Camp-Run-Amuck is an appropriate name for this place.
