Welcome to Whitetail Cove by AvantStay! Tucked along the shores of Lake Norman, this sprawling two-level retreat is built for big groups who want lake days, game nights, and easy gatherings all under one roof. 🌊 Private dock with swimming platform and lounge seating, plus a pool for sunny afternoons 🎱 Rec room with pool table, ping-pong, foosball, and a card table 🍳 Two full kitchens, a bar, and dining for the whole crew The space Whitetail Cove is a 6-bedroom lakefront retreat sleeping 20, with a private dock, pool, and game-filled rec room. Few lake houses give a group of 20 this much room to spread out. Set right on the water at Lake Norman, Whitetail Cove spans two full levels designed around togetherness — long dinners, slow mornings, and the kind of game nights that run later than anyone planned. The main level opens into a generous living room with a sectional and a TV made for catching the big game, flowing into a formal dining room where a farmhouse table seats 12 between two long benches. The fully stocked kitchen gives the whole crew space to cook side by side, plus a casual table for six for feeding the kids while dinner's still on the stove. Just off the kitchen, one of the home's two sunrooms is set with a bistro table for four and a couch — an easy spot for your morning coffee. The main-level primary suite is a quiet retreat with a king bed and its own sunroom, where chairs, a loveseat, and a bistro table for two look out over the pool and lake. A home office with a queen sleeper sofa makes room for two more, and a half bath and laundry round out the floor. Downstairs is where the group really stretches out. The lower level holds five bedrooms, a second full kitchen, a bar, and a rec room with three distinct zones: a pool table topped for ping-pong, foosball, and a card table, with couches in the middle and a TV lounge anchored by a roomy recliner. The bar opens straight onto the pool deck, and the second kitchen makes prepping for outdoor meals effortless. The bedrooms down here sleep the rest of the crew in comfort — a bunk room with two twin-over-full bunks, a queen room, a room with two queens, a king suite, and a lower-level primary with a king plus a twin daybed and trundle. Nearly every room is an ensuite, so no one's negotiating for a bathroom. Save your best hours for outside. The large dock comes with a swimming platform and plenty of seating for sun-soaked afternoons, while the pool is the easy fallback for anyone who'd rather stay close to the house. Lake Norman State Park sits just down the road, with boating, swimming beaches, and miles of biking and hiking trails along the shoreline. When you're ready to venture out, the lakeside towns of Mooresville and Troutman put casual waterfront dining, local shops, and family stops like Zootastic Park and Lazy 5 Ranch within an easy drive. However your group likes to spend a lake trip — on the water, around the table, or deep in a foosball rematch — Whitetail Cove has the space for all of it. Experience Lake Norman, AvantStay style.
