We also offer corn hole, for family fun.
The home is situated on a heavily wooded lot ,so a hardpack walkway to the water has been added for comfort.

Such a great location. Right on the lake but feels private since it's on the cove. Very quiet during the week; boat & people activity picked up on the weekend. Love the easy entry to the water and all the access to floats/kayaks/paddleboard. Nice to have grocery & ABC store so close too.

Once again, we had the best time staying here !!! The kids loved fishing off the dock and had a blast kayaking and kneeboarding in the cove. This location has everything we want in a getaway spot on Gaston, and Pat makes sure all your needs are well taken care of. Thanks for another wonderful vaca, Pat - see ya next year !!

House and property were as advertised. We had a great time enjoying the lake and surrounding area. We brought a small boat, and spent a lot of time paddle boarding and kayaking. Super easy boat ramp access. Very clean and usable space in the house.

First family lake vacation

This was our first lake vacation and we loved every minute of it! The house was so cute and cozy and came with all the things you could need. The waves to the lake was by far the best part. The walk in beach type area was perfect for our kids and dogs. The boat ramp was literally 4 houses away and the house is located on a culdesac. We look forward to booking this house again.
View from the provided floats.
My kids also really enjoyed the complimentary paddle boards!

Love this place

Kayaking on the lake, dining and grilling on the large covered porch, quiet protected cove, community amenities, and close to food shopping, a bakery (Jenny Cakes on the Lake) and even a few restaurants are just a few reasons why we love this place.

Summer vacation

This property was beyond excellent. My husband and I brought 3 grandkids with us. We used the kayaks and the paddle boards that were provided. The kids swam and fished daily. They caught quite a few fish from the dock. We cooked meals and had dinner on the balcony. The kitchen had everything we needed. This was our second time renting this property and we will definitely be renting it again. It’s pet friendly also and our dog had a great time too!

Another Wonderful Vacation!

We've lost count with how many times we've rented this house! It's a comfortable home supplied with everything you'll need, located on a quiet cove and close to the Food Lion. There's a nice grassy spot with shade or sun by the water's edge where kayaks can be easily launched and young children can play. The view is beautiful! The back porch is also nice for meals and reading. This trip we caught several bream, shellcrackers, catfish, and bass while kayak fishing. Thank you Pat for being a great host and for providing Another Wonderful Vacation!
