Lake Hickory is a hidden gem in North Carolina. Only 45 minutes from Blowing Rock and an hour from Charlotte and Asheville. Less than a 10 minute drive to downtown Hickory where you’ll find great food and cool shops. This beautiful property on lake Hickory is perfect for families and entertaining. Down by the private pool you will find a charcoal grill, floats, plenty of seating, and a diving board for hours of entertainment! The property has lake access but water is shallow. Access the lake by kayaks and stand up paddle boards (boats are not able to access dock). When the water is low kayaks need to be walked out to deeper water. The property includes kayaks for adults and children. The lake depth fluctuates about 2 feet. There is a small creek that runs under the dock that is fun for kids to explore. Kids can play in the shallow water and catch minnows in the creek. The house is on a dead end road so there is very little traffic. Downstairs you will find a fireplace with an oak poker table and space to play games. The house has three full bathrooms with showers. There are three bedrooms and a futon in the basement. The yard is perfect for kids to play. “It’s All Good” lake hickory home is an ideal place for families and friends to vacation.

The whole family had wonderful time. Really enjoyed the pool, it was great for family. House was as advertised, clean, beds and furniture were comfortable.
We loved our stay here. Everything was as stated online and one of the cleanest places we have ever stayed. We ate most of our meals outside on the deck enjoying God’s beauty! Will definitely stay again.
We loved our stay at the Lake house. It was clean, Spacious and had plenty for the whole family to do. The three bathrooms were a big plus when getting the kiddos ready. The property itself was so cute with a fenced in yard which I loved for my littles under 5. The area was really nice as well very quiet and peaceful.
Our family had a great vacation. John was a great host, and very accessible. The house was a perfect fit for a family vacation with activities for all ages to enjoy. We look forward to returning.
We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend at The Lake House. Can’t wait to return in summer/pool season to get to enjoy great pool area. The house has everything you need to be comfortable and the views and setting were spectacular! Lots of restaurants in area that deliver…Bed was comfy, kitchen well equipped, deck was awesome…all that’s missing is me! Looking forward to a return trip! Thank you!
This is a great place and management is quick to respond.
The TV was not working downstairs would power on but would not give any options for channels or anything. A blow dryer would be nice to have there but we did not find one in any of the bathrooms. But those are minor things overall it was great for our family that stayed and came to visit.
This house was in the perfect location and even better than what we expected. The house was very clean. I would update the pictures on the listing. The pictures look great, but once you are in the house, the house is SOO much nicer.
Staying here and sharing Thanksgiving with my family was wonderful. Great views of the lake and surrounding. I’m from the area but moved away. It felt like having a home in Hickory again
Great house, perfect for families in quiet neighborhood!
The house was perfect for our family. The pool was a hit with the kiddos. The neighborhood is quiet and safe. The location of house was easy to find. Shopping center only 5 minutes from house. My family really enjoyed the stay!
We really enjoyed our stay and spent most of it at the private pool. The house had plenty of room for all of us and was well stocked. Nice location close to Hickory and right next to the marina. We hope to come back for a longer stay and get use of the kayaks. Adults and kids thoroughly enjoyed our time there.
This house was perfect for us while staying in Hickory for our daughters wedding. 3 bedrooms upstairs and a futon downstairs in the basement. The kitchen and pool were great! We would definitely stay again! Thank you for hosting an unbelievable event!
We all had a great time. Plenty of room for everyone. We enjoyed the pool everyday and of course the back deck. This is our 2nd year staying here. We have family 30 minutes away and 90 minutes away and they were able to come over each day. The area is super nice and we ate at a great restaurant called FOURK.
The property was very nice!! We thoroughly enjoyed the pool though our week was mostly rain. The house was very comfortable. It was a peaceful place. We loved sitting on the porch, seeing the lake and listening to all the birds. The owners were very responsive and helpful when we had questions. It was a great vacation!!
This was the perfect spot for our annual girl’s weekend. This house has everything we needed and there was plenty of space. We loved being able to cool off in the pool. John was very responsive.
My family and I were looking for a place to vacation in North Carolina to enjoy some cool weather for a break from the Florida heat. This place has great for 5 adults and 2 children’s. Plenty of room for all of us. We really enjoyed looking at the lake view and the year was nice to let the children play.
The only negative was a few of the linens and towels had stains on them.
Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a place in North Carolina
