About this property
Minutes from UNCC, this pristine, single-level home is perfect for family fun!
Escape to our charming 3-bedroom vacation home in Charlotte, North Carolina. Nestled just a 5-minute drive from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, 10 minutes from the thrilling Charlotte Motor Speedway, and 15 minutes from downtown Charlotte and the vibrant Spectrum Center. This property offers the perfect home base for your getaway.
Unwind in the communal pool, connect with free WiFi, and refresh your wardrobe with the in-unit washer and dryer. Cozy up by the fireplace and enjoy a movie night on the large smart TV. Unleash your competitive spirit with a game of pool or ping pong in the game room, relax with a good book on the back patio, or stay up-to-date with work in the private study area.
The fully stocked kitchen is ready for you to whip up delicious meals, complete with a stove, oven, refrigerator, grill, and all the essential appliances and cookware. Savor your culinary creations at the dining table that seats 4-10, or step outside and dine al fresco on the front porch. As the day winds down, gather around the fire pit or let the little ones run and play freely in the lighted and secured backyard area.
With three bedrooms and two bathrooms, air conditioning, heating, and all the essentials provided, this vacation home offers the perfect blend of comfort and convenience for your Charlotte getaway.
Now that the professionals described the home amazingly, we want to add our heartfelt sentiments.
"This is Us" is a premiere vacation rental in the University area. This property was designed with you and your family in mind. We provide what we look for when traveling away from home: a safe, clean, peaceful, relaxing getaway retreat. Though not at home, it has everything needed for "jam-packed" family fun during your stay.
Each bedroom has its own entertainment system. Details: 1) Our 1st-class "Director's Suite" features a Cali-King bed and sitting areas; 2) The classic "Front & Center" room provides a comfortable, private sleeping quarter; while 3) The "Spotlight" room's natural sunlight shines onto the spacious double-decker space that accommodates four. The "Great Expectations" area promotes family time and activities with a "Back Stage" view of Carolina's natural landscapes and furry, feathered friends.
The equipped Galley promotes gatherings of 4-10 guests in one setting. An added perk is the "Entertainment Tonight" space, where active and quiet play for children and adults frequently occurs.
It's within walking distance or a 5-minute drive to UNCC's 49er statue and minutes from Charlotte Motor Speedway, PNC Music Pavilion, Concord Mills, and the NoDa district. It's only a fifteen-minute drive to Queen City nightlife and the Charlotte Convention Center. Enjoy plentiful free on-site parking as well. Book your getaway today and prepare to write a fantastic review!

This was a super nice place to stay. Pretty much in the middle of everything to do around the Charlotte area. Comfortable furniture, great bed, and the game room in the garage was cool. We will definitely try and stay here again.
The house was stocked with everything we needed and was centrally located to everything! Comfortable beds, super clean, and the kids loved the game room. The host was very responsive and a pleasure to work with. Would definitely stay again.
Great location! We came for WOO races and this was a quick drive to the track! The property is beautiful and comfy! The owners were so helpful! Had we been at the home more we would have used the awesome garage area! Anyone with kids would love the air hockey game in there! We will stay here again! Love the Charlotte area, so beautiful and some of the friendliest people!
This house is welcoming and comfortable. It is so clean and the host is responsive to our questions. It is a great location to Charlotte Motor Speedway and the surrounding area.
This house is well-maintained and has a great layout. Betting is comfortable and the backyard is a great place to escape. The use of the space is excellent and the furniture is comfortable. We would definitely stay here again!
Nice place with comfortable furnishings. Everything was neat and tidy. Top bunk of the bunk bed would be ok for a child, but was a little wobbly for our older teens - we managed it and had a great stay. I would stay there again.
Stayed here for our son’s graduation from UNCC. It was a convenient location to campus and his apartment. House was clean and well kept. Nice touches with snacks and coffee supplies. Would definitely recommend to others.
This was a wonderful property that made for a great stay for our family of 4. Close to everything in the Charlotte area but also set back into a nice quiet neighborhood. Our host Lisa made sure everything was ready to go for us and was responsive during the check in process. The house is clean, nicely furnished, and the bedrooms are spacious and comfortable. We would not hesitate to stay at this property again!
The house is in a quiet cul-de-sac. It’s very clean with modern updates. The host was very responsive and helpful. The counter was stocked with a variety of snacks and coffees... nice touch. We would definitely stay here again!
The home was as listed. Clean, comfortable & cozy with plenty of room for our family of 5. Nice neighborhood. Our host Lisa was kind and responsive. Had a great stay.
We were in town for a nearby softball tournament. We enjoyed our stay. The property was well maintained and the amenities were a nice touch. The kids enjoyed the pool table and the large connect four game. We had plenty of room for seven guests to spread out. The host was responsive and the check-in/out process was very smooth. Would recommend for anyone looking for a place to stay in the Charlotte area.
We stayed for the World of Outlaw finals. Lisa was very communicative. The house was clean and inviting. Loved the game room. Looking forward to renting again next year.
Myself, my husband, my coach and my 14 year old son drove down from NY for an event in Downtown Charlotte. This home was literally like stepping into a home away from home! Nice neighborhood, quiet, cul-de-sac. Everything was spotless, set up just like home. The living room furniture is amazing, the beds are so comfortable (we actually slept better here than home). The garage with the pool table, popcorn machine, speaker, high top tables and comfy couch made for a great family pizza night! I could keep going because this was by far THE BEST home we've stayed in and of we ever have to come back we know right where to go! The host Lisa, gets all the stars, 110% & A++++ from all of us. If you're looking, book it because you will not be disappointed.
Wonderful place to stay!!! The host was excellent, always quick to respond to any questions. Had everything here that we would have needed for our stay. Would definitely recommend and would return if ever in the area again.
I have stayed here previously as a guest, and when we had another event in Charlotte, I booked a return without hesitation. Lisa has excellent communication and the home was perfect for our visit.
Lisa's property is very well appointed. It is clean, comfortable, nicely designed and well-kept, and secure. It is located in a quiet neighborhood, but close to everything.
