About this property
On Lake Norman! Private Dock + Pool & Kayaks | Porch Paradise by AvantStay
Porch Paradise is a classic Southern-style home...absolutely stunning! Almost 1,100 sqft of wrap-around porch welcomes you to your retreat!
Once inside, guests are greeted with a warm, inviting foyer with access to the primary bedroom and the dining area. The large dining area seating eight is adjacent to the large, modern kitchen. The kitchen features Italian Tigerwood laminate kitchen cabinetry and slate counters! The fully stocked kitchen, flanked by eating areas on each end, is perfect for preparing all your meals. The kitchen opens to a light, bright family room with built-ins, comfy seating options, and a large TV. From the family room, there is access to the back deck, which is the full length of the house!
The primary suite features a king bed, a small seating area, and an ensuite bath, including a soaking tub, glass shower, and dual sinks.
Upstairs is the perfect bedroom level, just enough away from the hustle and bustle of vacation with 4 bedrooms. There are three king bedrooms upstairs and one ensuite bath. There is also a bunk room with a set of twin bunk beds, perfect for the kids' sleepover. The other two king bedrooms are at the end of the hall and share a hall bathroom.
The lower level is set up for easy entertainment, with a spacious game room featuring a large sectional, big-screen TV, and a multi-game table for pool and ping pong. The fun continues in the garage with additional games, including ping pong and an arcade-style basketball game. A bar-height table adds a convenient spot for cards, board games, snacks, or casual meals after grilling.
Porch Paradise offers lots of outdoor seating - 2 dining tables for 6 each, loungers by the pool, and multiple other seating options on the wrap-around porch, fire pit, and pool! The new pool is a perfect spot to hang out during the day or for a quick sunset swim. Don't forget to pack for S'mores by the newly built-in fire pit!

We really enjoyed our time. There were 8 of us and 2 dogs and PLENTY of space. Being able to dock up to the house was a huge bonus. Would definitely book again.
We had some renovations being done and we stayed here for more than a month. It became home. The kitchen has everything you’ll need and I heard they are getting it renovated, so it should be a brand new kitchen for summer 2025! There are plenty of clean, fluffy towels and it’s located near some great restaurants at the Langtree exit. We had a really pleasant stay.
Our family enjoyed the spaciousness of the home. All of the adult beds are King size-big plus. The home is furnished comfortably. The cove and neighborhood are quiet. The porch is the real draw. We found ourselves gathering together on the porch at all different times of the day. The pool is a nice addition.
House looks as pictured. Nice size and layout. Clean, property management was always in touch and available if needed. Easy check in/out. Quiet neighborhood, close to grocery store, Costco, and restaurants. Pool is small, but enough room to hang out and cool off. I would go back for sure.
It was a good property… however the porch was somewhat untidy, patio around the pool was very unsafe…uneven… many bees and flies they made it unsafe and u. Pleasant at times to be wither around the pool or on the outside wraparound porch. Rooms were clean… kitchen had all the things we needed…plenty of towels and toilet paper… cooling worked well… neighborhood was nice. Would like to talk to someone about a home for next year.
Everyone loved this house. The pool is a little small. The game room was very nice. We couldn't get the air hockey table to work until the owner happened to stop by. He showed us where the cord was to plug it in, it had been hidden inside the body of the table. He also gave me permission to get another kayak out of the garage. We then had three kayaks and me, my son and grandson went out on the lake. It was my grandson's first time of paddling a kayak by himself and he was impressed. We will consider returning to this house in the future.
