"The Overlook is a wonderful hideaway and perfect for sister’s weekend. The highlight perhaps was the hostess’s accommodating my requests. She was so helpful. Thanks for a great stay, Georgia!"

About this cabin rental

Our cabin, Overlook, rests on the main channel of Lake Wylie, yet is tucked inside a sheltered bay. It is the closest proximity to Charlotte of any lake in NC. In 20 minutes you can be downtown and 15 minutes to the airport! There are fabulous restaurants, shopping and other amenities within a 10 minute drive. We have a fully stocked kitchen with all the cookware wine glasses etc that you will need for your stay. The 180 degree lake view oriented due west provides some exquisitely dramatic sunsets. You can relax and unwind while you watch amazing scenery from the patio, the covered porch, hammock or dock.

The house has tongue and grove wood paneling throughout, even on the ceilings of the den and dining room. It has recently been updated, but the original "lake cabin" feel has been kept. It has the feel of privacy and seclusion.

You will love the beach! It is perfect for the kids to run around and play in the sand while you watch from the patio or dock. The "bay" offers a safe swimming environment, being indented into the shoreline, feel comfortable and confident that your loved ones are safe from boat traffic. You will have access to a canoe, kayak and stand up paddle board to launch out on an adventure from the beach.

Upon entering, you will find the cabin to be clean and well kept. We take great pride in this! You will have clean sheets, clean kitchen, and house so you won't need to worry about bringing anything but yourself!

Exactly what my husband and I were looking for: A cozy traditional lake house for a serene get-a-away. Place was spotless, and the beds were super comfortable. Our nephew and his wife joined us for rwo nights with their 6 month old and all three had the best night’s sleep in 6 months! Loved the knotty pine cabinets and paneling. Location was very quiet, yet short drives to grocery, restaurants etc. Host was super responsive and delightful.
