We had 8 adults and 1 child on our vacation and this house fit us perfectly!The views were absolutely amazing!!Close to the islands for a little boat trip and anchor out and swim. Our kids and grandson enjoyed the slide as well!Perfect location, close to stores and restaurants.
We enjoyed a relaxing week at the lake. The house was very clean, and had everything we needed. Absolutely loved the place, we never had to leave everything we need was there.
We had a great time The Place had plenty of room for us all. And a great view the slide was a lot of fun There were lots of spider webs everywhere but after a good sweeping to clear then it was much better
We loved our stay and hated to leave! The house was wonderful and offered lots of space. We went as a family with teens, they were able to enjoy the downstairs and adults
upstairs. The dock and waterslide were a huge hit! Will definitely book again!

We've been staying here for several years and have never been disappointed...the changes/upgrades you have made just made it that much better! We have young kids to teens and no one is ever bored with all the activities available. The water, the house, the location = GREAT VACATION!

Gretchen, Thanks for the review. I'm glad you enjoyed our home and boat. We look forward to having you back next year. Thanks Ron and Julie (owners)
We loved the water slide and location of the property. Didn’t notice a lot of bugs down at the dock. The house has clean and tidy upon arrival. We will definitely be back
Goose island and the kayaks and canoe alone make this a spectacular location. Three different docks and a slide made this the ideal spot for fishing, boating and playing in the water. Ron is outstanding to work with and the property is well stocked with everything you need. Can not wait to go back again!

This was our first time renting on Lake Gaston. We certainly chose well. The view of the lake is spectacular. Our grandchildren loved the slide and fishing. The house is very spacious and has everything needed for a great vacation! We would certainly return again!

Susan, thanks for the review. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. Hope to see you and your family back. We will be taking our granddaughters down next Friday for a week. They cant wait....
Very clean comfortable great additions with paddle boats conoes kyakaks slides docks were easily accessible. Kitchen well stocked. Owner very easy to work with. Grandkids enjoyed fishing and eating what the caught. Plenty of parking. Lots of chairs and tables outside. Would recommend to anyone the view was awsome
We came for a week after the kids finished school and had a blast! The kids loved the water slide and jumping off into deeper water! The area in front of the dock is surprisingly quiet with little boat traffic. The kids and some adults either swam or canoed to the island. That was a highlight of the trip for them! Bring a float and enjoy!
We really enjoyed our stay here! We loved everything this home had to offer. The location to the boat ramp and stores was great! The only thing that was mentioned was it would be nice to have an additional dock cleat. There was one side that only had one and we were docking boats to both sides. We look forward to vacationing at your home in the future. Thank you for sharing your home.
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.

A wonderful weekend getaway!
We went for a quick weekend stay! I wish we were able to stay longer. The house was even bigger than it seemed from the pictures and had everything we needed. Our 4 children barely even got to watch TV, haha, because they were so busy fishing, swimming, and kayaking! The water was warm and we were able to kayak to the nearby island (but watch out for snakes!). Caught lots of catfish and a few bass. We even sat by the fire at night to fish. Very private, spacious, and comfortable. We are already trying to plan a weekend in the fall that we can come back! A big thank you to the owners for allowing us to use their home and bring our pup who also enjoyed herself.

First Time Lake Gaston Vacationers
We spent our annual family trip here. As life long beach vacationers we wanted to try something different. I was immediately pleased upon arrival. The house was very clean, well organized and stocked. We were very comfortable all week. We used the kayaks, paddle boat and pontoon rental at the house. We used the fire pit a couple of times and did smores. We also fished daily. There was plenty to do to keep the kids entertained and it was so relaxing to just sit and watch them swim off the dock. No waves to worry about! We spent plenty of time just floating around. We will be back for sure!

Beautiful View
We had a wonderful stay at Paradise Point! The house was plenty large enough for 12 of us to spend a week. The kitchen was fully stocked. The only thing we needed in the kitchen was our Keurig. There was a coffee pot there. We enjoyed using the kayaks and canoe. We also rented the pontoon boat and loved going out on the lake. The area was very quiet. Nice neighbors. There was always a breeze blowing outside! Ron was wonderful to respond quickly to any questions we had.The only thing we would change is having a bathroom downstairs. Highly recommend staying at this house!! Would definitely go back.

Paula, thanks for the great review, so glad you enjoyed our home with your family. We look forward to having you back.
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.
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!!
Our trip to this Lake Gaston home was wonderful and one we hope to do again very soon. The owner was very responsive and extremely hospitable. Gorgeous views, lovely home, we can't wait to 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.
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit at Paradise Point. The view is incredible and we enjoyed watching the nature all around us.
Ron was very accommodating and available to us throughout our visit.
I highly recommend this property.
This was our first time staying at Lake Gaston and this property makes us what to come back again and again. The owners are extremely welcoming and informative. This house was perfect in every way. The neighbors are friendly. There is just too much awesomeness to list. We can’t wait to start planning our next trip! Paradise point is just that….. a slice of paradise!!!

My wife and I purchased the property in November of 2015. We have been vacationing on the lake for over 15 years. We finally found our dream home/location that we want to retire in.

I hope you will enjoy our "Little Piece of Heaven" and will come back year after year.
