The perfect house!
Our book club of five older women stayed here over the weekend. Our hostess, Terra, thought of everything one could possibly need. One of my friends said, "I feel so cared for." The view from the dock of the fall leaves was so pretty and peaceful. The kitchen was well-stocked, and the house was decorated beautifully. We enjoyed an outing to Gold Hill antique village. We hope to stay here again.

Thumbs Up for Red Sky!
We made a last minute decision to book a lakehouse for a quick 5 day / 4 night getaway, and Red Sky was absolutely perfect. The property is located in a nice cove where you can watch the sun come up every morning out on the spacious deck. There was plenty of room at the dock for our boat, and the house was spacious, comfortable, and clean and had everything you need to enjoy some time away. Terra is great to work with, and everything in the home is in good working order. We would definitely rent again!

Lake Vacay!
This is the 2nd stay at this house and it is the one we will continue to stay in when we go on vacation at Badin. Terra has thought of everything, and all the special touches make you feel like it is home. There are lots of lake toys to rent and enjoy and we all enjoyed the lake mats this year! It was great for our grandkids as they are not yet great swimmers. We appreciate being able to bring our fur babies with us, it would not be vacation without them being a part of it. Definitely a house worth staying at and excellent communication with Terra. The perfect house for our trip!!

Perfect getaway!
This is an immaculate property! Everything is clean and you don’t have to bring a ton of extras just to start enjoying your time. Plenty of towels, blankets, kitchen and bathroom supplies. The bathrooms have shampoo and conditioner and body wash to use. The outdoor water toys were super fun. My kids used them all and explored the nearby shorelines for turtles and otters. We fished off the dock and off the boat. Our last night my son caught his first fish off the dock. The hosts were extremely efficient with communicating with us and helped with any issues that arose!! One thing to remember is the grocery is about 20 minutes away, so if you want to bring a cooler to stock up for the first night and the next morning that would be best. Also, not a lot of restaurants so plan to cook at the house! We had a wonderful time!!

Dream getaway
This is an amazing property. Pack your favorite snacks, bathing suit and toiletries. Terra has everything else you will need there and available. House was immaculate, warm and welcoming. Love taking our boat and docking it during the stay. The deck views in the morning are perfect for coffee. We will be returning in the near future. Thanks for such an enchanting getaway at the lake.

Perfect in every way
Our stay at Red Sky Lodge was nothing short of amazing. The house was very clean and tastefully decorated. It slept 3 couples + 1 more adult very comfortably. The views were breathtaking and the entire feel of the house was serene. Perfect for summer or fall rentals! Terra was a pleasure to deal with and provided our group with some wonderful local recommendations! Will definitely book again next year

Red Sky House is a perfect Christmas getaway
Red Sky House at Badin Lake was a perfect place for a family Christmas gathering. It's half way between Georgia and Virginia. It's a beautiful lake front property with plenty of room. It has adorable nautical decorations. The owner also had put up a beautiful tree with lights for us to enjoy. It was super cold outside but with the fireplace it was cozy inside. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook, plenty of games to enjoy and the beds were comfortable. Terra, the owner was quick to answer any questions and made us feel very welcome. We will definitely be planning a return stay.
