#1 Rated Vacation Home w/ Deep Water on the Main Channel

This beautiful house has one of the best views on all of Lake Hickory! Complete with a new chefs kitchen, a Master Bedroom on the main, two more bedrooms and a rec room down below it is a perfect getaway for a relaxing escape. Both the covered porch and paver fire pit patio are wonderful places to enjoy lake life. It is the perfect place to relax and watch the stresses of regular life disappear! Incredible views of the lake from all bedrooms and all of the comforts of home. Our home is located on the main channel with over 110 feet of water frontage.
Our home features a Chef’s kitchen with all stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. Including blender, crock pot, toaster, Keurig, coffee pot, pots/pans, bakeware and dishware. Plus plenty of different types glasses for your favorite beverage and we didn’t forgot the corkscrew either! You won't even need to pack any spices, there is a spice rack with all the spices to cook up your favorite meal. We have a brand new propane grill just outside the kitchen with beautiful views of the lake while you cook! Our large farm style table seats up to 10 adults, with additional eating area at the kitchen island, also a table outside under the covered porch, and a picnic area downstairs- all with spectacular lake views!
We picked only the best mattresses for all of the beds with clean, soft sheets and big fluffy towels. We want you to feel pampered and spoiled!
Our basement rec room is fun for all ages with an air hockey/ping pong table, game table for cards and board games, comfy couch, TV, wet bar, additional fridge and microwave. The door opens fully to have a great lake view while you are playing games and enjoying time with family and friends.
At the dock there are several flotation devices to float on. The water is 18’ deep at the dock, so diving and cannon balls are a must! Take a ride on our kayaks and look for the many turtles, or do some fishing off the dock. We have a few fishing poles available for your use. Our family loves to tie all of our floats together and hang out in the water all day!
Enjoy your evenings sitting by the fire in the comfy Adirondack chairs, perfect for the summer evenings and cool winter evenings as well. The lake is beautiful all year long! There are four chaise lounges with comfy cushions to either curl up with a good book, or work on your summer tan! Feel free to browse our library of books, or trade with your own! We also provide Wifi and internet service as well as a DVD player.
Lake Hickory is one the largest freshwater sand bottom lakes in North Carolina. Lake Hickory was created on the Catawba River in 1927 with the completion of the Oxford Dam 11 miles (18 km) northeast of Hickory. The dam parallels the NC Highway 16 bridge over the Catawba River between Interstate 40 and Taylorsville. It is 122 feet (37 m) high, with an overall length of 1,200 feet (370 m). The spillway section of the dam is 550 feet (170 m) long. The lake was named after the City of Hickory and runs along its northern edge. It covers almost 4,223 acres (17.09 km2) with 105 miles (169 km) of shoreline. Full pond elevation is 935 feet above sea level. It is perfect for those who love to swim, ski, tube, boat or enjoy some of the finest fishing in the area. The lake is home to many different species of fish including Striper bass, largemouth and spotted bass, crappie, lake perch, bluegill, sunfish as well as a variety of catfish. Water quality is very good and fed by mountain springs. We are conveniently located about 1 hour from Charlotte, 1 hour from Asheville (home of the Biltmore Estate!), 45 minutes from Blowing Rock and about 3 1/2 hours from the coast. Beautiful mountain views from the lake!
As far as sports are concerned, Hickory is home to the Hickory Crawdads, a Class-A South Atlantic League minor-league baseball affiliate of the Texas Rangers. The Crawdads play in L.P. Frans Stadium located in the western portion of the city, near the Hickory Regional Airport.
Hickory is also home to the Hickory Motor Speedway, nationally known as the Birthplace of the NASCAR Stars. The speedway was opened in 1951 and features a 1/2 mile track with seating for approximately 5,000 spectators.
The Dusty Ridge State Park is a great park and public boat launch less than a mile from the house.
We hope you will come visit Lake Hickory and see all that this area has to offer!
Sit back, relax, you’re on LAKE TIME now!

This house was perfection & exactly what we needed. They’ve thought of everything, from the stocked kitchen with a binder of nearby stores/restaurants & marinas, to the life jackets and floats in the dock storage closet . Beautiful home with a great layout for kids. We even enjoyed the rain under the covered back porch. So peaceful.

Great Home & Layout

Beautiful home at the end of neighborhood. Lots of room to stretch out and enjoy the property and Lake Hickory. For the boaters it’s closely located to a marina and short boat ride to Sandbar Marina that has a fantastic menu and food. The house has everything you need to enjoy a stay with a game room lots of beds and wonderful sunsets. The multiple outdoor balcony/porches are another way to enjoy the lake view. Highly recommend as the hosts were very attentive and super polite!!

Great relaxing weekend

Even better than expected! Master bed and pillows were very comfortable. The location was perfect for our relaxing weekend. We took advantage of the awesome dock by renting a boat so the kids could play on the lake. Some pretty impressive houses on the lake to drool over. Less than 10 mins to a grocery store and less than 20 mins to Hickory. We are very pleased with the accommodations. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

We had a wonderful week at this gorgeous property. The house was clean, well equipped, and in such a perfect spot on the lake. Our boys loved swimming from the dock, kayaking, and fishing.

The owners were extremely kind, communicative, and helpful. There were no unexpected surprises or hitches in anything. They let us check in early which was really outstanding, and clearly noted everything to be aware of! The lake was beautiful, and the surrounding area was peaceful and relaxing.
