Amazing home and lake vacation from start to finish! Never have we ever stayed in a house so well appointed and so well stocked. It made our stay with young kids such a breeze! From spices to towels to basic cleaners, it was all there and at our disposal. The fishing poles, life jackets, kayaks and pedal boat were all wonderful and added a lot to our experience! We have found our new lake house rental!! Natalie (and John!) were so above and beyond what you'd expect in hosts! We'll be returning for years to come! Thank you both!!
This was our second time visiting the property. Everything was great from the timely communication to amenities this property offers.
We will definitely be returning and making this our go to lake vacation home!
We enjoyed another wonderful stay. Natalie and Jon are terrific hosts and offer terrific amenities both within the home and at the waterfront. It’s a quiet and picturesque area of the lake, but also affords easy access to the main body of Lake Gaston. Highly recommended!
This home fits our family so well. This is our second year staying in this lovely home for our annual family vacation. The home is equipped and stocked better than any home we have stayed at in the past. Our grandkids loved the slide and float mat. Thank you for sharing your home with us. We had a wonderful vacation swimming, boating and fishing at Lake Gaston.
Our group of family & friends (4 adults, 5 children) found Natalie's home to be idyllic -- a peaceful corner of Lake Gaston shaded by soaring pines offering terrific areas for swimming, boating and fishing together. The property and home itself offered just as many wonderful amenities (the game room, the kitchen, the bedrooms, etc.), but what really struck us was the attention to detail invested by Natalie and John. They are outstanding hosts who go the extra mile to ensure their property feels more like a lake home than simply a lake house.
The location is perfect just off the main lake. The kids loved the water slide and jumping off the dock. The host provided a number of kayaks that could be used in the quiet waters of the cove. There was also a paddle boat which had seen better days but was still lake worthy enough to make it around the nearby island. Loved sitting on the porch just watching the world go by. The basement entertainment room was used by all but the bar area could do with some glasses to save running up and down stairs. The entertainment area is also right next to the kids bunk room so having little kids that needed an early night could subdue activities. We would definitely go back.
We thoroughly enjoyed staying in this home for our annual family vacation. We usually look for a site with some sandy beach for our young grandchildren, but they are hard to find. I noticed all the decking and the slide at the water on this property. It turned out to be a wonderful find!! We loved having some depth to the water for swimming off the dock. The bunk room worked great for our grandkids, the master suite on the main level for us and the two bedrooms with their own bathrooms upstairs for our adult children. Home was very well stocked both inside and out and we loved that bed linens and bath towels were included! This is the fifth year we've vacationed at Lake Gaston and this property fit us so well. The location is great. Truly one of the best!!!
We had an absolutely amazing stay at the lake and this house is so well-appointed and is in a great location on the lake. The layout is great and the house has everything you need for your stay.
We stayed here during the 2nd week of August with two other couples and their children. We had a wonderful stay. The house was clean and had everything we needed plus some!! There was plenty to do for the kids and adults.
We had another excellent experience at Natalie & John’s beautiful home — our 3rd summer in a row enjoying their hospitality. The location is ideal, with a quiet waterfront for the kids to enjoy but close proximity to the main body of the lake. The house is beautifully maintained, and the boathouse with its two slips and boat lifts is a big plus. A great spot for families and friends to relax and enjoy vacation time together.
Beautiful home in nice subdivision. Awesome views, very nicely equipped. The pantry items were a nice touch! So nice to not have to bring spices aluminum foil, etc...
Our stay was amazing, the house had all the amenities and then some. Multiple zones where fun could be had by many, gameroom, dock, fire pit, sunroom, porch. Etc.
The cove is wide and access to the house was easy from the boat ramp. Fishing was great from the dock. It was a great time had by all.
This property is great. Right on the water. House is gorgeous with plenty of room. The owners are great. Answered any questions right away. There was a cute welcome gift in the kitchen for us. There are fishing poles and life vests for renters to use. We will definatly rent this property again.
We like to take a week every year in Lake Gaston. This year we wanted deeper water off the dock. This house is perfect. Plenty of Kayaks for everyone and a slide off the dock. The Kitchen is well stocked and plenty of pots and pans to cook any meal. We played games every night and enjoyed sitting around the fire. Natalie and John are very responsive and were the perfect hosts for the week. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.
Natalie's lake house is incredible. The house, the decks, the yard, the dock and the water are all within talking distance. If you are looking for a place for three families with kids this is ideal. There are three grown up bedrooms with king size beds and one big bunk room downstairs for the kids. Everything is as described and as it looks in the pictures. Couldn't ask for more.
This house was absolutely beautiful! There were 7 adults and we all agreed that it was the most relaxing vacation we have spent together (and we’ve spent quite a few). Everything was immaculate and there was not one necessity or luxury item that was missing! The view of the gorgeous lake from the porch was incredible! We enjoyed kayaking and paddle boating and fishing during the day and lit fires in pit at night and shared many laughs! Thanks Natalie for an amazing 5 days! Highly recommend!!!!😁
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. It is a great house with so many spaces to accommodate a large family with friends. Natalie, the owner, was great! She was very responsive and offered so many extra details that made our stay so easy and pleasant. She went above and beyond to make sure we knew where everything was located on the property and what needed to be done for check out. We didn’t need to go in search for anything! She even gave local recommendations for restaurants, entertainment, businesses, etc.
We highly recommend this property and it’s owner and look forward to returning for another family vacation!
I can’t say enough about this house. There were so many activities to do. The owner thoughtfully provided everything for the family to do together from fishing, different types of boats, floats, different places for the family to gather, etc. The kitchen is well stocked and the owner is very responsive. Her neighbors are lovely as well. The house is located in a beautiful location. I highly recommend renting a boat and making a trip to goat island. The only con is it makes you never want to go home because you’re having so much fun :)
We are Ohioans who seek lake life for our yearly vacation. We have been to Deep Creek (x2), Smith Mountain and Lake Norman (x2) over the past several years. This house on Lake Gaston provided our best experience, by far. The house is great, the dock is fantastic and Lake Gaston is the best we have been to. Communication with Natalie was on point, check in was easy and house was very clean. Property is well kept and the owners go above and beyond when it comes to making sure you have everything you need to enjoy your stay. Under-counter ICE MAKER (that works) is all I need to say. All other appliances and amenities are top notch and available for use. Beds were super comfortable and bathrooms clean, spacious and in perfect working order.If I was forced to find one thing that wasnt perfect it would be the basement entertainment seating. The home has a massive flat screen in the lower level, but only seating for four. We made it work and in no way does it diminish my rating of this house on Lake Gaston.11 out of 10. No way you are disappointed if you stay here.
Our family has been convening every two summers for the past 10 years. This rental is by far the best we have ever had. So much so that on Friday night before leaving, the six adults had a discussion about “what can we do in two years to top this?”
We chose this house because of its layout, amenities, vicinity, and the written/pictorial description. This rental fit ALL of our expectations: three floors (one each for kids, parents, and grandparents). A rec center on the lower floor with a pool table, infinity table, and TV – plus three bunk beds for the four kids. Marvelous open space on the main floor with a kitchen area with two ovens, two fridges, microwave, ice maker, dishes-pots-pans-ovenware galore, etc, etc, etc; and a Master Suite to “die for”—King bed, staircase to an office, and a Jacuzzi. Finally, two ensuite bedrooms on the upper level. Outside there are levels of enjoyment from the gas grill and picnic table, hot tub, fire pit, and the dock with a slide!! A full dock level closet for life jackets and minifridge, fire table, and seating round out the area. OH – and we cannot forget the 2 paddleboards, 5 kayaks (large and small), and the pedalboat (which we did not use).
You will not be disappointed to rent this house. The owners were responsive by text and just a joy to work with.
