Great house for a family vacation

Great house for a large family gathering. There were a few issues but hosts were extremely responsive. Hopefully they'll remedy the minor ongoing problems like a bad toilet, nonworking lights in down to dock etc. but they really didn't diminish from our stay. There was plenty of room for everyone to have their own space and also for the group to gather for meals, etc. The basement bedroom door has a window in it which is a little weird. We would definitely rent from them again.

Fantastic Stay

Our group had a wonderful stay at Jon and Ashley’s beautiful lake house. It is perfectly situated on a quiet cove, excellent for swimming and paddle boarding. The house easily accommodated our large group, with great indoor and outdoor common space for group meals and activities. The bedrooms were great as well, and the kids in our group loved having the bunk room to themselves. Our hosts were very communicative and easy to get ahold of as necessary, and answered our few questions very quickly. We would absolutely stay in this property again, and highly recommend it to others, especially family/friend groups looking for a place to all be together.

Owners great people

The house was terrific and the owners went out of their way to be helpful. We had one problem with the lights in the house, minor, but the property manager never got back to us. The owners stepped up and got involved. They also were extremely kind and let us use equipment we had not contracted for. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen has everything you could possibly want. Some previous guests had returned dirty pans to the drawers which was annoying. Our family of 10 enjoyed the house immensely.

About the host

Hosted by Ashley & Jon

My husband and I live full-time in Virginia Beach with our beautiful 2.5 year old little girl Harper, who of course inspired our lake house name. We both own and operate businesses that keep us in constant motion while home so this lake house was a way for us to get away and relax from time to time.

We have been vacationing to Gaston since I was a kid with my family and it was always a dream of mine to have my own lake house one day. When we found this home, it needed a lot of love, so for the last 2 years, we have been working hard to make it more than just a home. This house has become a staple in our hearts and a place where our family and closest friends can make memories that will last a lifetime.

Thank you for taking the time to get to know about us and our little hideaway. We hope if you choose to stay at our home for your next family or friend vacation, make sure to tell us a little about yourself in our guest book.

Cheers!
