We enjoyed a long weekend away with friends. Thank you for opening up your property to guests.

Location was great for a quiet lake weekend and had a dock for us to tie up our rented boat. Indoor and outdoor spaces were nice and worked well for our group of 10 adults. Accommodations were almost perfect, but there was a large hole and water damage in the ceiling of one of the basement guest rooms. We discovered this upon arrival and after getting in touch with the property owner, we were told "sorry, we meant to get that fixed but didn't have time." No compensation was offered. The basement was also littered with millipedes (mostly dead) and the cleaning service didn't seem to ever vacuum under the beds (lots of dead bugs). We also had to make our own beds (mild inconvenience) and the trash receptables on site were both already full upon arrival.

Our family and friends had an awesome stay at Cozy Cove. The house was well-stocked and very clean - even more stocked than described online. The lake was beautiful and quiet especially during the week when there was very little loud motor craft. The porch swing by the lake was a perfect spot for morning coffee or watching the sunset. Bring water shoes because the lake is pretty shallow near the dock and there are some water bugs that get stirred up but its very refreshing to swim in on hot summer days and great for all ages and abilities.
A couple of small things: A window covering in the upstairs bedroom would be nice. There was firewood provided, however we didn't see a shovel or way to deal with the ash to clean. There was a little confusion with the checkout instructions because of conflicts between the emailed instructions and the printed binders in the house. Photos show no couches in main living room, but there are two large couches that are nice and comfy.
Note: the neighbors live there full time and are very nice. Just make sure to keep their side of the dock and property free for their use.
All in all, we had a wonderful stay and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a lake vacation.

The location of this home is great for a relaxing get away. The streets are perfect for walks or bike rides. The cove is set apart from the main lake so it is very peaceful. Most days we were the only ones in the water. The house is beautiful and stocked with everything you would need for making meals. We loved the paddle boards and kayaks. My only complaint is that we did not book the house for an extra week!

We had a wonderful week at this beautiful lake house. The dock and boathouse were a big hit with the kids for swimming. Fire pit was great. Plenty of family games to play inside.

We loved this property. It was quiet and beautiful.
Each morning we listened to 25 different species of birds singing. Fishing and swimming off dock. Host was very gracious allowing us to use dock, boat lifts, paddle boards, canoes, life vests, etc. That is unusual but wonderful.
The bathroom had a big shower. Full size frig upstairs & downstairs. TV upstairs had Netflix, YouTube music played through Bose surround sound system upstairs. Seperate tv downstairs. Full wet bar downstairs with ice making machine!
We were allowed to bring our small dogs!
Only downside of our stay: septic sewer located near outdoor fire pit. Smell made it unbearable to sit around the fire at night.
We loved this place and highly recommend it!!

Our family was scattered between New York & North Carolina now that our children have graduated from college and are working.
We had great Thanksgiving week relaxing by the lake. This house was excellent allowing us to work remotely Monday and Tuesday and then take off and enjoy family time. The house was perfect for our family for us to spend time together and give us the space to get some peace and quiet.
The host and property manager were very responsive to all our questions. We will be book this house again!

Check in and communication with host Michelle was very smooth, and she was accommodating to our simple requests. We're planning to return next summer with extended family and children and wanted to ensure the property was right for us. We tried out all the water toys (kayaks/paddleboards) taking note of the available lifejackets and sizes. The location of the property seems fine and depth of the water should be fine for swimming off the dock. The beds all seemed comfortable. The property seems pretty new, so everything seemed to be in good working order. We did not try the TV streaming preferring to spend our time outdoors by the fire pit at night since we were blessed with wonderful weather for early October. The stargazing was amazing ! This property seemed to have most of what we need, and we can bring the small things we didn't find. All in all, a relaxing stay that should work well for our extended family next summer. We'll be back!

We had a great vacation at Lake Gaston! The house was wonderful, tucked into its own little cove. The next door neighbors were very friendly! The property manager could not have been nicer or easier to deal with. Our family will look forward to another lake vac next year!

This was such a nice rental on a quiet spot on the lake. We spent hours in tubes, fishing off the dock, and using the paddle boards and kayaks to explore the area around us. The house had all comfortable beds and 2 nice living areas (one for the kids and one for the grown-ups). I would
Recommend this property highly!

Our whole family stayed here for a week for our annual family vacation - 8 adults and 2 kids - and loved it! The high ceilings, huge windows and open plan of the main floor made it feel roomy even with all of us hanging out there - and there's also a big downstairs room with a VERY comfy sectional to spread out into as well.
It's a beautiful home and was immaculate, and had everything we needed provided with thoughtful touches - not only sheets, but bath and lake towels as well, TP, paper towels, dishwasher detergent, etc.
We LOVED having a nice flat lot, such an easy walk to the dock - we've stayed at places with crazy stairs to have to climb, and it was so nice not to have to deal with that! And as. a bonus, this meant we could play games like spike ball in the yard, which is great when you have a big family! We really enjoyed the fire pit, kayaks and paddleboards too - my family is active so it was great to have lots of options of things to do.
Also, I have to mention - I can't speak for all the beds since I only slept in one, but the master bed on the main floor was SO comfortable - my husband and I both slept better there all week than we have in a long time.
Highly recommended!

We had a great time at Cozy Cove! The location on the water was perfect!! We saw some great sunsets and everyone had fun on the water toys (kayaks and SUPs). We brought a boat with us and it was easy to navigate in the cove and out to the main lake. (One thing to note: if you bring your own boat - there is community ‘boat launch’ right next to the house but it is very shallow and not easy to navigate. I put my boat in there but took it out at Hawtree Boat ramp which isn’t far away - 20 mins by boat and car). The fishing was great right off the dock and by boat. The whole family (5 adults and 4 kids) had a great time and all agreed we would rent here again.
The house was clean and very well stocked.

Stayed for a week during renovations on my own property. Property manager was very responsive--getting a water heater replaced in a day after there were signs it may fail. Very clean, and well-decorated on a large cove. Really enjoyed it!
