About this property

8 bedroom, 4.5 Bath Lake Front Home with Boathouse. Sleeps 18

Our home sits in a large, quiet cove just 100 yards off the Main Lake. With over 160' of decked bulk headed waterfront, a 1400 square foot double boat house with fish cleaning station and sunning dock. You have everything you need to enjoy the sun and fun outdoors including 2 kayaks, a paddle board, fishing poles and built in rod holder at the dock. Feel free to park your boat beside our boat house or inquire about our pontoon rental. The water at the dock is perfect for swimming, floating, and relaxing. Water level gradually deepens from 1-2 feet at the edge up to 4-5 foot water depth at the end of the dock, perfect for the little ones to play and learn to swim. We are ten minutes from the Food Lion & other amenities. It is a quick boat ride to the restaurants, marinas, Goat Island and the Eaton Ferry Bridge where the sunset views are amazing!

Perfect for our friends
I can say all the usual nice things about the property. It was clean with lots of natural light. The kitchen was easy to work in and nicely laid out with all of the tools and utensils we could hope for. The back porch had plenty of seating and cushions and a lovely view of the water. Truly a beautiful property and the hosts were easy to get in contact with if we had needed. I tend to point out disability access in my reviews because our friend group has different levels of mobility. There were no stairs at all to get into the property, the front porch is flush with the driveway and the threshold of the front door. There are some minor surface changes on the first floor, but not too bad an easy to manage. You really wouldn't be able to use a wheelchair into any of the bathrooms, the one that would have enough space in it has a tricky little hallway to get to it, but if you could transfer using a couple wall supposted steps, you would probably be fine having a wheelchair user in this home. My only concern is that the beds are all fairly high up. Not in a weird way or anything, just on the higher end of normal and to the point where we have a couple of (short and/or mobility impaired) people who would consider bringing a small step stool or something for next time. One of them just stepped up onto her hard shell suitcase this time to get on and off her bed. We loved the property and would recommend it to anyone who was considering the area

Amazing property!
2 families vacationing for 3 years together on Lake Gaston, different house each year and THIS is the winning house! We will be coming back again in 2024. Well-stocked and updated Kitchen (with granite countertops you’ll covet!), ample living area and large TV for movie nights. Enough beds, bedrooms, and bathrooms, and ALL are tastefully decorated and comfortable. Large dock area for hanging out and swimming. Very nice fire pit next to lake area with plenty of seating. And Veranda for morning coffees also with plenty of seating. It was a delightful stay. The owner, Alan, was very helpful and incredibly responsive. Unanimous 5-Star stay from 10 adults, which is rare.

Wonderful House
Had a wonderful time. House is great; fit our large group of 14 very well. New kitchen with 2 refrigerators, large pantry, separate ice machine and very well equipped. Dining table seats 20 and is great. Lake was wonderful. One side of boat house is dedicated to fishing, the other has a dock the kids loved jumping off while the adults floated as well as a seating area. Swim shoes are a must for the shallow area. Pontoon boat was a great add-on. Would highly recommend this house. Owner was also great to deal with.
