Game Room, 2 King Suites, Huge Porch, Kayaks, Lake
Spacious lakefront retreat with 3 king bedrooms (2 ensuite), game room, and a massive covered porch with peaceful views. Enjoy the private dock, kayaks, paddleboards, fire pit, and a flat yard perfect for yard games. Indoors, you’ll find a beautifully updated kitchen, smart TVs, and entertainment for all ages. Whether relaxing on the porch or exploring Lake Norman, Blue Heron Hideaway is designed for comfort, connection, and lakeside fun.
Blue Heron Hideaway features a spacious layout that comfortably accommodates up to 13, guests, making it ideal for gatherings with friends and family. The main level boasts a master suite with a king bed, Smart TV, and an ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower and dual vanity. Wake up to serene views and enjoy a morning coffee on the covered back porch that stretches across the entire backside of the house, offering plenty of space to lounge and relax.
Blue Heron Hideaway blends luxurious comfort with endless lakefront adventure. This beautifully updated home sleeps 13 and features three king bedrooms—including two private king suites—plus two more cozy bedrooms, all with fresh linens and thoughtful design.
The spacious open-concept living room invites connection with large windows, comfy seating, and a smart TV for laid-back evenings. The remodeled kitchen is fully stocked with modern appliances, perfect for cooking big meals or easy breakfasts.
On the lower level, the temperature-controlled garage has been transformed into a fully loaded game room with ping pong, foosball, Connect 4, and a smart TV—guaranteed to keep kids (and kids-at-heart) entertained rain or shine.
Step outside to the expansive, covered lakeview porch—a true highlight of the home. Enjoy your morning coffee, grill dinner on the BBQ, or simply unwind as the sun sets. The flat backyard is ideal for games like cornhole and leads directly to your private covered dock and boat ramp. Kayaks and paddleboards are included, so adventure is only steps away.
With 4.5 bathrooms, 6+ vehicle parking (including space for boat trailers), and a washer/dryer, this home balances convenience with charm—making it perfect for multi-family stays or group getaways.
We’re a local family business who manages this home with the same care we’d want for our own vacations. You’ll receive hotel-level cleanliness, fast local support, and all the essentials stocked—including linens, paper goods, toiletries, coffee, and more. With keyless entry and personalized service, you can focus on what matters: relaxing and making memories by the lake.
🕸️ Spider webs outside? We de-web and treat docks and porches regularly, but spiders can rebuild a web in just 30–60 minutes. Lake life! On that note, geese love this property and may use the boat launch as a bathroom - we also tend to this frequently.
⏰ Can I check in early or check out late? We already offer THE most favorable check-in/out times compared to other local companies. We follow our standard times to allow for proper cleaning. Requests may be available during the off-season, or if it's not a same day turnaround.
🔥 Is firewood provided? No—but local grocery stores sell bundles right out front. Grab a lighter too, as they tend to disappear and we don’t stock them (liability).
🛋️ Can I use the indoor fireplaces? Our indoor fireplaces are decorative and not intended for use. Again, a standard in our area for managers due to insurance and liability.

This lovely property has a spacious house with comfortable beds, generous amenities, and an impressive setting. It was a wonderful place for our Thanksgiving celebration. The sun rising over the lake was a nice bonus.
We had 13 family members spanning three generations, and the house was great with the bedroom alignment and the activities available. The lakefront location was an added bonus. It is unusual for a house to meet the needs of four families over three generations.
Tessa, the host, was extremely welcoming and not only kept us well informed before our arrival, but checked in on us during our stay to make certain we were comfortable and had everything we needed.The home is beautiful, well-appointed, and extremely comfortable, with easy access to and from Charlotte and the airport. It was great for a business trip, but from my visit, I would return to enjoy this incredible home for a well-earned vacation.Bravo!!!
Loved this home and its location. House had all that you need. Beautiful deck to sit and enjoy coffee provided while you gaze out on quiet lake cove. Large table to gather for food or games. Ping pong was a hit and fire pit was too. Easy check in and great communication from owner.
