Testimonials:

Our annual couples trip was one of "makin memories." We thoroughly
enjoyed the lake and have bumps and bruises to prove it!! We topped
our trip off last night by sharing in the marriage of our friends,
Pat and Tara, on the Catawba Queen. Beautiful!We appreciate the use
of your home, boat and joggling board--we are all expert jogglers
now. Looking forward to next year's trip and many more after that.
Our best to you and yours,
The WV gang
Dear Poppy,
Thank you so much for our delightful stay at Calais By the Sea.
Having the ability to have a home atmosphere made the wedding
complete. All who came enjoyed your beautiful home. I am sorry we
never had that glass of wine together, but only hope that if you
come to MD we will have a raincheck. All the best,J--Lutherville, MD
We found Calais By the Sea perfect for our Pa. family here to
celebrate my parents 60th anniversary and my dad's 85th birthday.
Lake Norman has changed incredibly since they built their home here
34 years ago. So many wonderful years of life on the Lake--raising
children, entertaining grandchildren and now great-grandchildren and
they still love aking up to see the sparkling water.
Thank you for having such a large and comfortable "rental"!
Kathleen and Andrew--Doylestown, Pa
We had a great satay at your house!Just right for our mini vacation,
will be back in Oct. L---Cape Cod, MA
Wow, what a week. Our son's wedding trip was made extra special by
having a week long bonding time. We have grown closeras a family. We
laughed, drank, golfed and talked until the wee hours and then
laughed again until we cried. Our lake cruise with Captain Brady was
spectacular as we joined our future bride with music, food and fun.
thnak you ofr making our forever memories so special and
unforgettable--The DiN's and DeS's families

Thank you for the week our family has been able to enjoy at your
Lake Norman house. Your spacious home has provided very adequately
for our meal preparation, sleeping and bathing provisions. We have
enjoyed the entertainment and equipment systems to keep the
grandchildren occupied. The family has enjoyed playing at the nearby
park down the street and Jetton Park, riding bikes in the area;
treasure hunting in the back yard; games in the front yard; taking
the children to Discovery Place and ImaginOn in Charlotte. The
highlight of our week was a homespun version of the "Amazing Race".
