Making Waves by AvantStay | Sleeps 20 + Pool
It's all about family, and there is no better place suited to enjoy your next reunion than Making Waves vacation home. Making Waves is a beautiful, luxurious, modern, and well-maintained waterfront home in a neighborhood located on the shore of Lake Norman, NC. You will enjoy your scenic drive through the golf course as you start your vacation. Central to many major golf courses with 3 nearby and NASCAR motor speedway.
Let's take a tour of your escape:
Making Waves is over 4900 square feet and offers everything you'd expect in a lakeside vacation rental. Plenty of sleeping space! This property can accommodate a very large family. It is located on 1 acre of landscaped gardens. Everyone will enjoy the pool and floating dock, where you can swim or fish for hours.
The main level features an open-concept living room, dining room, and kitchen. All rooms are easily accessible from one another. The kitchen is fully stocked for the chef of your party to prep meals for the whole group; in the morning, coffee is readily available from the drip coffee maker or the Keurig. The kitchen offers an eat-in area with a table for four and counter seats for three. The living room has a cozy sectional to enjoy views of the deck or watch a show on the TV, complete with lake views! The modern dining room features a large glass table seating 8 with a new chandelier. There is a quiet study off the kitchen with a sofa and TV for the early risers to watch while not disturbing the rest of the group. This room offers a queen sleeper sofa as well. The primary bedroom is on the main level with a king bed, attached bath with soaking tub, separate walk-in shower, and dual vanities.
The upper level, with 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths, is perfect for many sleeping options. Upon entering the top of the stairs, to the left is a queen bedroom with a new attached bathroom. As you make your way down the hall, there is a queen bedroom with French doors, a bunk room featuring 2 queens and a pull-out queen sleeper sofa to sleep 6, and another queen guest room.
Adults can enjoy the lake-level lounge. Just relax, sip a beer at the bar while gazing at the pool while the children, within eye view, watch their favorite movie on the 108" home theater screen. Don't forget the games in the bar area: a pool table with ping pong topper and foosball for your whole group to enjoy. Or step out from the lounge, relax by the pool, and take a dip. The pool is a saltwater pool, 3 to 8 feet deep, and open year round. The pool is not heated and maintains a temperature about 7 degrees below the outside temp.
Outside at Making Waves is where the majority of your time will be spent. Whether splashing in the pool, making s'more by the newly built fire pit, or enjoying your lakeside toys, there is plenty of fun to be had by all. For backyard games, Making Waves provides corn hole and adult-size Connect 4! The house features two levels of outside entertainment. The upper level will have a new Polywood table to seat 6, along with a grill, the perfect place to watch the kiddos swim or entertain the resident chef while grilling dinner. The lower level features another new Polywood table for six, amongst other seating, and an outdoor shower to rinse off after a long day on the lake.
AvantStay provides a personalized hospitality experience to elevate your stay. With our Concierge Service, guests have access to our tech-enabled services like fridge stocking, private chefs, massages, transportation, special occasion celebrations, baby gear rentals, ski gear, beach gear, and more. For anything you need, we’re at your fingertips!
Discover the allure of Lake Norman, a haven nestled in the heart of North Carolina. With its idyllic atmosphere, this destination offers the perfect blend of tranquility and excitement.

Spend lazy days by the shimmering waters, or venture into the charming lakeside towns, where quaint boutiques and local eateries are waiting with unique finds and new experiences. For the outdoor enthusiast, there's an array of water activities, from paddleboarding under the vast sky to exhilarating boat rides against the backdrop of scenic hills. Whether you seek relaxation or adventure, Lake Norman promises an unforgettable retreat, making your stay here truly exceptional.

*Home Truths:*
- Please be aware that we are constantly trying to upgrade, improve and may redecorate or rearrange furniture, etc. We do this in response to prior guests recommendations so that future guests have an excellent vacation experience.
- House has 2 kayaks and 1 SUP for guest use.
- The living room fireplace is not available for guest use.

- Please note that a service crew for the fish tank visits the home on occasion.
- No events, group gatherings, or parties are allowed at any AvantStay property under any circumstances.
- Due to natural fluctuations, we’re unable to provide specific water depth information at any given time.

However, since boat drafts can vary, guests are encouraged to refer to Lake Norman nautical charts, GPS systems, and depth maps—and rely on their own knowledge of their vessel’s specifications—to ensure safe navigation.
