      AMENITIES Galore!! If you're searching for a private resort-like feel to be with your loved ones, The FunHouse is for you! There is something to do for every age group. Check out our video tour at (copy and paste into your browser) https://youtu.be/veDFCEL0G7M

      We welcome you to a private Lake Norman family getaway retreat! We call it The FunHouse because we’ve loaded it up with amenities -Outdoors we've added a brand new heated saltwater 16' x 31' swimming pool, 6-person hot tub, 9-hole mini golf, Corn-Hole, giant-sized Connect-4, SUP boards & kayaks, fishing poles, and a cozy fire pit for your private outdoor fun. Head inside on those rainy, cooler days, and you'll find that we've provided fun for everyone. The entertainment area is equipped with a retro video arcade system with over 400 video games, poker table, billiards (pool table), air hockey table, darts, and a large movie theater room with comfy, reclined seating for 10.

      Our tranquil property is located in the quiet part of beautiful Lake Norman. If you rent a boat or wave runners, you'll have plenty of space to roam. It is tucked away in the middle of a beautiful, cove, allowing for lots of privacy, while still being close and convenient to attractions, restaurants, and shopping. (Only 20 minutes to Moorseville, 15min to Troutman, & Sherrills Fords).

      Great food and entertainment are only about 15-20 minutes away - safely away from all the hustle, bustle and traffic of Moorseville. Order from Publix and have your groceries delivered - and you'll never have to venture out if you don't want to. Do you have a boat? Bring it - the public launch is minutes from our property, ride it on over and park it at our dock.

      Driving down our beautiful tree-lined driveway you will see lots of fun awaits you. Our private 9 hole mini-golf area is one of the many activities you can look forward to, nestled along the front of the property. Park your car in the circular drive and come on in! On the main floor, you will find a spacious open floor plan with a fully-equipped gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances, breakfast nook, dining room with seating for 10 or more, and living area with a fireplace. The living room area on the main floor has a 50-inch LED flat-screen TV, sectional with seating for 10. Additional seating is located at the bar and kitchenette nearby. There is a surround sound speaker system with receiver, for the tv and radio, allowing music to be played throughout the main level of the house and outdoors.

      All windows in this house have thermal black-out curtains and comfortable mattresses for a restful nights sleep! The laundry room is located on the main level. The primary bedroom boasts a beautiful King-sized bed, flat-screen LED TV, deck access, and a large bathroom with dual vanities, a jacuzzi tub, and stone tiled shower. The other main floor bedroom features a queen-size bed with an LED TV and a beautiful bathroom right outside the door with a custom stone-tiled shower.

      Upstairs there are three bedrooms, all three with cozy queen-sized mattresses and all with LED TVs. The middle upstairs bedroom is a large family suite with queen-bed, and an attached bonus room with bunk beds (double-sized beds) with trundle bed and a little reading nook. The second level has two recently remodeled bathrooms each with toilet, sink and standup shower.

      In our lower level, you will find endless entertainment, equipped with a state-of-the-art home theater, professional pool table, dart board, poker table, bar, 400 game arcade with a walk-out to a brand new heated saltwater pool. Outdoors features an outdoor shower for rinsing, and 12-14 person outdoor dining area, with outdoor speakers for music. The entertainment area also offers a large bathroom with an exit to the outdoor deck, making lake cleanup much easier. Life jackets and fishing poles are stored here as well for guest usage.

      Down by the dock, you’ll find 2 kayaks and 2 SUPS (stand-up paddle boards) for your pleasure. You can jump in the lake (life vests provided) or hang your feet and fish. Or you can park your rented jet skis or boat. Lake Effects Marina rents and delivers to our dock. Back at the patio, you’ll find an outdoor kitchen (barbecue and stovetop with sink), outdoor plates and utensils, and a covered dining area.

      Now for our most loved feature - the automated heated/cooled saltwater pool with colored waterfall, and restful tanning ledge. You have the option to choose pool light colors if you wish!! Our swimming pool is available for use year round. The heater and cooling units will be used at our discretion. The heater for the swimming pool can only be used if the night time temp is over 55 degrees (at additional cost). We get full sun during spring and summer months so it is naturally heated to temps on average above 75degrees. If you would like the pool heated/cooled to a higher/lower temperature than provided, there will be an additional fee.

      Our hot tub is stationed nearby under a private gazebo and is available year-round. After sunning and swimming all day, settle into our cozy fire pit area and toast marshmallows. Or head inside for movie time in our theater room with comfy seating for 10.

      Don't forget about the front of our property!! There, you'll find our 9-hole mini golf area. Adjustable clubs are provided, along with score sheets and balls. It's fun and challenging. Our mini-golf is available for usage year-round!

      Nature lovers, you'll find turtles and frogs in our cove, egrets, and falcons. Bird lovers can sit on the screened porch each morning and enjoy their coffee while being serenaded by a wide variety of indigenous birds. We are also 15 minutes from Lake Norman National Park for hiking enthusiasts.

      We care about your health and safety and have equipped our home with a *Radon Mitigation System and an *Infinity Whole House Air Purification System (newly installed) to eliminate pollen, animal dander, and other pathogens/bacteria.

      With all of these amenities, you and your loved ones can enjoy this private Lake Norman resort all to yourselves! We know you’ll love our Lake Norman FunHouse just as much as we do!

      Weekend Getaway
      This home was perfect for our little family weekend getaway. The wet weather did not keep us from enjoying our time away from home. The kids had a blast as this house had so much to offer. I would highly recommend to anyone. Pool, hot tub, theatre, pool table, fire bit, beautiful bedrooms and a really nice dock to fish off of. Thank you for the memories created!

      A wonderful home!
      The house is fantastic, the pool amazing and being right on the lake just tops off this wonderful home. The house is kept immaculate. It is well stocked with games for the children, life jackets for the lake, fishing rods and pool floaties. The pool is beautiful and the outside seating area is gorgeous. And then being able to kayak/paddle board straight from the yard is incredible. The home owners are very responsive, helpful and friendly in their communications. We had such a wonderful, relaxing time!

      THE Best !
      This house was as advertised and actually more than we expected :-) Every aspect was phenomenal. All was well maintained and SPOTLESS. We didnt need/want to leave the property - everything was there to keep us entertained and having so much fun😆One trip to a supermarket to restock and it was a short drive. Nikole responded to any texts right away, she was so easy and pleasant to communicate with before and during our stay. Just a side note, if anyone in your party has an issue with stairs, you may want to take into account, that the most direct access to the pool deck from main floor of house, has about 15 steps. However, from the bottom level, its a flat walk right to that deck 👍 There were 10 of us family-gals celebrating my daughters 50th bday and this property offered everything to make our stay perfect !

      Great Lake house!
      This is a wonderful house! It is very well stocked and even had booster seats, high chairs, and a pack and play for Littles. There was plenty of outdoor and indoor seating and all the rooms were spacious. The property was very clean. The pool is absolutely amazing and the hot tub is large enough to fit multiple people comfortably. There are many options for water sports with the kayaks and standup paddleboard. The inlet is calm, which is nice for swimming in the lake. Overall great house and we had a fantastic time!!

      Fun week at the fun house!
      We’ve been vacationing at Lake Norman for the past 8 years and everyone in our group agreed this house was our favorite. It had everything we needed and then some. The activities for the kids was endless. Not once did we hear “Mom, I’m bored”. Pool and outdoor eating areas were our favorite. Put putt course was well kept and in the shade. Inside of the house stayed nice and cool. The basement was loaded with things to keep our crew entertained when the sun went down. Would definitely stay here again.
