Luxury log home on main lake - pizza oven, fire pit, kayaks, SUP, pontoon

"The Lodge at Lake Gaston" is a beautiful log cabin style home with a million dollar view. 4 bedroom plus loft home, located on waterfront of main Lake Gaston near entrance to Pea Hill Creek. Lake Gaston is located right on the NC/VA state line and was recently declared the #1 lake getaway across the United States by BuzzFeed and its readers.

Large double boat house with spiral staircase leading to a sun deck (used to be a helipad!). Boat house is ready for fun with plenty of deck chairs, storage room (with bar window), sound system and water slide! Large waterfront area (bulkhead) with deep water (5-6 feet). The gently sloping yard has a large stone fire pit & pizza oven. We also have a Saber infrared gas grill and smoker (both attached to central house propane). Generac whole house generator provides peace of mind in case of power outages.

This home has an open floor plan; kitchen, living & dining room combination, fireplace & 2 master suites , plus half bath and laundry room on the main level. French doors from living room, & bedrooms open to large covered porch with gorgeous view of Lake Gaston & boat house. Open Loft area upstairs overlooks living area & has view of the lake, additional bedroom upstairs.

Head downstairs to enjoy the recreation area with full bar, granite countertops, old-fashioned arcade games, digital piano, Tornado foosball, ping pong and TV/surround sound set-up. Oversized bedroom with two sets of bunk beds (both twin over full) is perfect for lots of kids or a whole family.

Summary of bedroom configuration:

First/main floor: bedroom 1 (king) with en suite bathroom; bedroom 2 (queen) with en suite bathroom

Second/loft floor: bedroom 3 (queen), there is also a pull out sofa bed in the open loft area on this floor; note that there is a newly added full bathroom on this level

Basement: bedroom 4 (2 sets of twin over full bunkbeds) with full bathroom

My brother-in-law's pontoon boat is docked at our house and available to rent from him (rate is approximately $1000 per week, daily rates vary). If you are interested in the pontoon, I can put you directly in touch with him. There are also several marinas in the area that rent other types of boats and water skis.

We have a paddle boat and kayaks (1 tandem adult kayak and 2 youth/small adult kayaks) and a SUP (stand up paddleboard) that are available for renters to use (no additional charge).

The house is convenient to all boating and shopping needs. On the main lake, but also close to the more quiet coves of Pea Hill Creek. 5 minutes from Food Lion grocery store, Dollar General and Ace Hardware.

PLEASE NOTE: For security purposes we have a single "Ring" camera pointed at the driveway/front entrance to the house.

The log beds on the main floor were a true work of art. The privacy of the accommodations from one floor to the next was incredible.
