About this house rental

Nestled in Lake Gaston, this attractive house for £318 per night is a fantastic option for your next break. Welcome to "The Good Life!" THIS IS A VACATION DREAM! Conveniently located, spacious lakefront home with level lot, mature trees and small private beach in popular Pea Hill Creek on the Northeast quadrant of Lake Gaston. This 2-level, pet friendly home is designed with families in mind and is the perfect location for annual family reunions or vacations! Come visit "The Good Life" and see what lakefront vacations are all about! THE OUTSIDE DETAILS: Let’s face it. You don’t come to Lake Gaston for the house… you come for the setting and all that the lake has to offer! Whether you want to relax or play, this property has everything you need! For those of you who want to relax, come enjoy the beautiful view of the lake from the Adirondack chairs on the dock, sway in the hammock under the trees, or swing in one of the double swings on the small, private beach. The swimming area is protected from the hustle and bustle of the main lake and is the perfect place for swimming and boating. The water is shallow near the edge of the property for younger children to stand in and swim. The water level is 3-4 ft near the dock and gets deeper as you head toward the main lake. We have two paddle boards, six kayaks (five singles and one double) and a pedal boat for our guests to enjoy. We have multiple “old school” orange life jackets, but please bring your own if possible. There are lots of areas to safely explore by kayak or paddle board, including a little island called "Halley Rock." If you decide to rent a boat (or bring your own), we have a boat dock that you can dock up to. And for all of you who love to fish - Pea Hill Creek (and Lake Gaston in general) offers some of the best fishing in the state! The yard is certainly worth mentioning as it truly feels like a special place. The large, mature trees provide ample shade and respite from the sun. We have a picnic table, corn hole, a horseshoe pit, a fire pit and a big field for yard games! Feel free to bring your own games! We also have a large, gas grill outside for grilling. This is truly one of the best coves on the lake! The main lake is just a few minutes away by boat. The Pea Hill Creek boat ramp is less than 2 miles away, as is the Lake Gaston Golf Course! One of the best things about Lake Gaston is that it’s in a beautiful, quiet, charming, rural area. There are no big box stores here! Our home is conveniently located with access to local restaurants, the Food Lion, an ice cream shop, mini golf, multiple marinas, boat rentals, bait shops, gas stations and more. THE HOUSE DETAILS… MAIN FLOOR: The main floor has an open floor plan and is a perfect space for entertaining large groups! There is a fully stocked kitchen and huge dining table that seats 10 comfortably. There are three additional seats at the counter. The kitchen is loaded with dishes, cutlery, pots, pans, bakeware, serving trays, bowls, storage containers, strainers, pitchers, drinkware, etc. There are also tons of “extras,” including a microwave, crock pot, blender, toaster, Keurig, a drip coffee pot, tea kettle, mixer, meat slicer, etc. ***Wondering if a particular item is available in the kitchen? Please message me for clarification. The spacious family room offers comfortable seating and a large 55” TV.. The family room and kitchen open out to the huge upper deck with lots of comfortable seating and great views of the lake and backyard! On this one deck alone, there are three seating areas: sink into the comfortable chairs in the covered deck area with ceiling fan, do some bird watching from the rocking chairs under the canopy of the trees, or enjoy a meal on the small outdoor table! We regularly see a pair of bald eagles and flying squirrels from the back deck; it's incredible! There is also a lower deck that offers another great area for enjoying the beautiful outdoors with additional comfortable patio seating, providing you with multiple areas to spend time with your family and friends. Back to the main level… There are three bedrooms upstairs: one master bedroom with a king-sized bed and private bath, one bedroom with a queen-sized bed, and one bedroom with two twins. There is a hall bathroom on this level with a tub/shower combo. All bedrooms have smart TV’s, alarm clocks, dressers and spacious closets. LOWER LEVEL: The lower level is stocked with entertainment. There is an 8’ Olhausen pool table, a foosball table, tons of games and puzzles, a large TV for movies or watching the game, and multiple areas for relaxing. The lower level has two bedrooms: one with a king-sized bed and the other with two bunk beds (one double and three twins); there is also a pull out sofa in the main area. There is a full bath with a tub/shower combination. There is also a laundry room on this level with a full-sized washer and dryer for your use. WHAT MAKES THIS PROPERTY UNIQUE? This house does not feel like a rental property… it feels like home. The furnishings are high quality, the beds are extremely comfortable, the kitchen is fully stocked… All you have to do is walk in the door and you have all you need to be able to relax and enjoy your lakefront vacation. We treat our guests like friends and are always available if you have questions or concerns. We have confidence that you will love this home as much as we do! If you have any feedback that would help us improve your experience at “The Good Life,” please reach out! *The Premises are equipped with exterior security cameras.

We had a wonderful family Thanksgiving at this beautiful, well decorated lake house. Very well equipped, the house had everything we needed for a complete traditional Thanksgiving dinner, and a well stocked kitchen. A bonus was the dining table that would easily seat ten. Multiple decks over looked a beautiful back yard and the scenic lake. Plenty to do and plenty of space for group fun or just relaxing. A pool table, foosball, corn hole, horseshoes, six kayaks, two paddle boards, a paddle boat and more. We did kayak, but being November, we did not go in the water. While we are past that stage, there was plenty of stuff for families with younger children - high chair, child gates, games and toys. The hosts provided information about the area and the house before we arrived, and checked in with us during our stay. All in all, we had a very nice, relaxing and restorative four days. We will have to come back again in the summer….

This was the PERFECT spot for a fun weekend with friends! The home was spotless, organized and welcoming and the location was just beautiful. Holly was so friendly and accommodating. The whole process was easy breezy and we really had a wonderful time. We cooked together, went on a nice walk, took out the pedal boat, made s’mores in the evening and enjoyed coffee on the porch. It was a fun trip for us moms, but next time we’ll bring the husbands and kiddos! 5 stars all around! 🙏

If you are looking for the perfect place to stay and get away from it all.. this is the place! The pictures and discussion of the house are spot on. We enjoyed the piece and quite around us during this time of year on the lake, driving around the different areas nearby. The people are very friendly and knowledgeable about the lake and towns around it. Thank you for sharing your home with us! We hope to stay with you again sometime!

This is a wonderful place to stay for a large family. The weather was bad for almost our entire trip but the house is so spacious that we never felt cooped up or right on top of each other. The house was very clean and well stocked. Chad and Holly are fantastic hosts and have created a very cozy home that they share. Very much enjoyed our stay!

Everything was fantastic. House and property were just as advertised. Been to Gaston many times but first time at Pea Hill Creek area and is our favorite spot so far! Deap, calm water just a few yards from the dock and no tiny bridges to navigate! Sheets were so soft. 2nd "drink fridge" was great! Downstairs game room was a big hit with the teenagers. Only suggestion is to clean up some cob webs outside but inside was very clean. Host was amazing to work with regarding checkin/out! Would absolutely come back!

Our entire family had the best time at Holly and Chad's home! It was very clean, they provided everything we could possibly need or want! The kayaks, paddle boards, and pedal boats were a huge hit and got used every day. The kids were able to fish right off the dock while the littles played on the beach. It was our favorite vacation house. Holly and Chad were so helpful and responsive, you will not find a better host. I would highly recommend this house and we would definitely stay here again!.

This home and property were ideal for our adult mama (no kid) get away. We talked on the dock and floated in the lake. We played games on the big table, porch, and family room. It was just perfect!
