The house is equipped with everything one needs. Lovely deck looking out at the lake. Flat screen TV's in every room. The only drawback - and only because two of us were seniors with some mobility issues - was that there was no bathroom downstairs. We had almost perfect weather and the water temperature was great. Bring a couple of noodles and soak! The kids loved the water slide, but I don't recommend it for seniors. Ron was quick to respond with any minor issues we had. Once I figured out the WI-FI password- small "S", it worked with all our devices. Highly recommend this vacation home. I would suggest that Ron offers a linen service and we would have gladly paid for it.

Everything was easy. Owner very easy to get along with. Views are amazing and the house is very well set up for a mix of ages. My older kids had the downstairs while the adults were upstairs so everyone had their privacy but we were still able to have game night together upstairs on a rainy night.
This is definitely our first choice at lake gaston.

Our visit was perfect. The owner was extremely responsive. He checked on us at check in & mid stay. Every question was answers quickly, although we only had one! The forst impression for us walking through the door was ITS SO CLEAN! The photos do not do the space justice. The screened in porch os quite a gem. The kayaks and canoes were so easy to launch beside the boathouse. The kitchen was fully stocked. All appliances worked. The bathrooms were clean. The deck is so spacious! The cove is a nice quiet cove. Perfect for our family getaway with children under 10. The water slide was a great hit! The directions, do’s/dont’s were very clear and easy to follow. The exterior has been updated and the wrap around deck was gorgeous. We will return!!

Great view of the lake with comfortable living space. Large kitchen and dining area and 4 bedrooms, 2 with views of the water. Deep water for swimming. House was rustic. Beds were comfortable with plenty of sleeping areas. Lots of area to park. I'd definitely rent again.

August 2021. We loved the view, kayaking, hanging on the dock, the slide, fire pit, close proximity of boat launch and the extra dock for our boat. Things to note.. the coffee pot also had an option for k-cup. The 2 full baths are upstairs with no bathroom downstairs (2 bedrooms downstairs).. you can’t beat the view, we had a great time! Plenty of room. We had 7 adult age people (2 couples).

Awesome property, this is the quintessential lake house. Great location to all Lake Gaston has to offer. The bathroom situation is a little wonky, 2 full baths in one room on main floor with shared sinks. No big deal for us, spent a ton of time outside jumping off dock, fishing, and enjoying the lake. Run don’t walk to book this place!

We stayed at this house for a week in May and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The owner Ron is very organized and communicated very well with us. The house is set up well for both adults and young kids (we had our grandkids with us for a few days). The views are amazing and we had alot of fun swimming off the dock. There are a few docks so the guys could fish from the other two while we enjoyed the bigger dock with the water slide. Love this property and hope to stay again next year!

We enjoyed our vacation and appreciate how well-stocked the kitchen is, the cleanliness of the house, and the availability of the kayaks and canoe. Check-in was easy and Ron was quick to respond to my questions. My only critique would be to clarify the bathroom situation on the main description of the home. Thank you for everything!

Overall we had a nice time. The lake is beautiful. September was a good time to go if you want less crowds on the water. Our kids had a great time with the dock and the slide. We enjoyed using the kayaks however both of the paddle boats listed in the amenities were broken and unusable.
The house was clean except that the heating and air filters looked like they hadn't been changed in some time which I felt should be kept up with considering I was assuming extra cleaning measures would be taken because of covid-19.
There are two things to know before renting this house that I would have liked to know before I booked it with no option for a refund. One is that the owner only allows two dogs. We searched for a house that allows pets since many in my family have dogs that we like to bring on vacation. Other listings state in the description how many pets are allowed but this one just said pets welcomed. Three families ended up having to kennel their dogs for the weekend which almost doubled the cost of our stay. The other thing I would have liked to know is that there are not really two bathrooms. There is one bathroom that has two toilets and two showers with a shared sink area.

The property is older and is in need of some repair but that doesn't take away from my satisfaction due to the great location, view and overall happiness with the home. Definitely going to book it again sometime this summer!

This property was just what the doctor ordered. There was plenty of room for everyone (5 Adults, 2 Teens & 2 Children). It was clean and comfortable. Felt like home away from home. Finally there was plenty of entertainment for everyone from Kayaks & Canoes to the Waterslide and simply relaxing on the dock which by the way there were 3 docks. One we used to swim from, one we used to dock our boats & one on the channel we used to fish from. It was wonderful!

Wonderful views and location! We enjoyed kayaking and fishing from the dock where we caught a few nice catfish. House was very comfortable and spacious. At one point we had 8 adults and there was plenty of room for everyone to spread out. Ron was very accommodating and easy to work with. We hope to come back in the spring!
