About this property

Lake Life is the BEST Life! Main Lake with Beach!


  • It's a new name, but it's the same great property! This property was formerly called "Livin The Dream" Lake Gaston.
    The home features two living spaces, an open-concept kitchen/dining area, decks/balconies overlooking the sandy beach and main lake waters, a bedroom with a king-size bed and full bath on the main level, two bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms on the second floor, and a walkout terrace level with a full bath and laundry.
    Guests can use our three kayaks and two paddle boards for no additional cost.
    The basement is also full of fun! There are lots of games, including trivia, foosball, Golden Tee, ping-pong, a poker table, and corn hole.
    Several floats, some sand toys for kids, two beach chairs, three folding outdoor chairs, and fishing poles are also included for use.
    We are steps away from the pickleball/tennis and basketball court. All the equipment needed to play is included in your stay.
    Nights sitting by a fire out on the back porch watching the sunset are the best!

    The location is central to shopping/dining/golfing/watersports.
    Summers on the lake are fun; however, this home offers fun year-round!

    We are a dog-friendly home!
    There is a Pet Fee of $25/day

Loved this property! Had a great time at beginning of spring break week. Lake was quiet and a little cold but perfect for our long weekend getaway. Our 4 kids enjoyed the downstairs game room and game closet. We took the paddle boards out and did some fishing. Thank you for the awesome memories, we will be back!

Wonderful property and hosts

We had a wonderful stay at this property for a quick long weekend getaway. The home is beautifully maintained and offers plenty of activities. We enjoyed the easy access to the lake to take advantage of the kayaks/paddle boards. The hosts were incredibly responsive and we hope to rent from them again

The house was warm and welcoming and felt like a second home. They allowed use of chairs and floats and other items which was a great bonus. The unit and beach/dock access was great as well. The owners contacted us and made themselves available to us if needed. We had no issues with the home and would rent from the owners again!

Christmas Holiday

We are a return customer. We have stayed here before so we knew from the start that this place works well for us. Good location with lake views and spacious enough with the downstairs area to accommodate the guys watching Football while the kids are watching their shows upstairs.Highly recommend this unit for others.

My new favorite spot

From the time we booked through the time we checked out, we had an amazing experience. Maria was super responsive and helpful, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The home was spacious, clean, and well-stocked. It was so nice to have the basic supplies there when we arrived (paper products, soap, trash bags, even coffee k-cups). The views from the two decks and patio are gorgeous - especially the sunset over the water. Even though it was January and chilly outside we were able to sit outside and enjoy the patio using the gas fire pit. The bedrooms are spacious and we appreciate that each has a private bathroom. The common space is well furnished with plenty of room. They thought of everything....games, books, a poker table, a dry bar, an extra full-size refrigerator, foosball, ping pong table, cornhole, paddle boards, etc.We enjoyed taking walks along the waterfront and trails within the community. The grocery store and restaurants are close by. We had lunch on the water at Waters View Restaurant and a fabulous dinner at Blue Jay Bistro. If you are considering booking - do it! You will not regret it. We look forwarding to booking again.

This is our favorite place to visit each year. What is offered at the house and the lake, is so relaxing, refreshing and fun. The hosts are the best you could hope for. They are diligent and committed to their guests to ensure that each family has a wonderful experience in their beautiful home. Lake Gaston has the best locations to get the most enjoyment from being on vacation.
