About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

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!

Clean and comfortable

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.

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!

Perfect!!

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.
