Our family had the BEST stay at this Lake Gaston home! It was absolutely perfect for our family of four plus our little dog. The house was spotless, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway.The welcome gift with popcorn and a s’mores kit was such a thoughtful touch and a big hit with our kids! We spent countless hours enjoying the amazing back porch, playing the many family games provided, and relaxing around the fire pit.The dock was a dream—complete with a floating mat, paddle boards, mini fridge, Bluetooth speakers, and even swim shoes. Every detail was so well thought out to make our stay fun and easy.We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The owner was fantastic and so easy to work with. We would absolutely love to come back again—highly recommend!

Was a great property! We enjoyed every minute of our stay! The house was very nice and had everything we needed. Outside and the boat house was also wonderful and lots of things for the kids to do! Was also good fishing caught lots of catfish and our daughter caught her very first one weighing 13 pounds! Will definitely book here again!

Just like it looks on the website fantastic. We enjoyed our stay so much. The host were communicative helped us every time we needed it. Best part for us was it had a boat ramp and we enjoyed the fishing so much. The boat dock was right there so we didn’t have to take our boat out at night. It was fantastic. I could not have asked for better. I’m so glad I found this place and can’t wait to go back.

We loved our stay in Lake Gaston Carolina was so responsive and the house was so cute. Perfect for a couple with a couple of kids. The house will sleep six ( 2 bedrooms, one with bunk beds) but only one bathroom. There are plenty of water toys and a great porch and fire pit. Really has a “ lake house “ feel.We would definitely rent again!

Perfect location on the lake

We had a wonderful time. The communication was flawless with the renter and the location was excellent. We loved the kayaks, paddle boards, huge floating platform to jump on and the dock was great! We had an amazing time and will be returning. The home itself was super clean, open concept and has beautiful views of the lake. Can’t wait for next time!

We had a wonderful stay. Drinking coffee on the dock was relaxing and we appreciated all the stocked kitchen and boat house had to offer. The kids especially liked the S’mores and the water mat. We got stuck in the rain and our luggage was soaked upon arrival. Not having a dryer and no sheets on the bed made it challenging but we made do. Despite the challenges, we would return (with a tarp for our luggage) in an instant.
