Lakefront Home w Pool, Dock, Fire Pit & Game Room Sip, Sip Away by Avantstay

You'll find a kayak on site at this family-friendly villa. Lake Norman is just a short walk away, so you can leave your car at the property, which offers onsite parking, or jump in your vehicle to make short work of the 4-minute drive to Catawba River.

After you return, you can unwind by the outdoor pool or sip a drink on the patio; you may also like the firepit and outdoor furniture. For a change of scenery, come inside and enjoy the free WiFi and table tennis.

This 5-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom rental features a living room, air conditioning, and a ceiling fan. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, a microwave, and cookware. And you won't have to pack extra clothes, because you'll also have a washer/dryer.
