Private Cove, Sleeps 18, Pool Table, Kayaks, Dock

Luxuriously furnished waterfront retreat, perfect for multiple families. 3248sqft, 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms. Two living areas with 65" TVs, game room with wet bar & pool table, flat lot, deck, covered patio, boathouse, dock, & firepit.

Comfortable furniture, lots of soft throw blankets, wi-fi for streaming tv and movies on any of the 6 smart TVs, fully stocked kitchen which also includes a high capacity air fryer (our family LOVES the air fryer), lots of kids games, family games, and adult games. Hammock chairs that can be moved down to the water in nice weather, a flat lot for playing yard games with the kids, scooters in the shed, and kayaks for enjoying the lake. This home is truly our happy place. We love escaping the craziness of regular life and relaxing in our beautiful cottage with family and friends. Whether you just want to relax at home, or enjoy many of the lake activities or nearby restaurants and wineries - you will love our cabin just as much as we do.

Last boathouse in the cove means no boat traffic, great for kayaking (kayaks and life vests included), and safe for children. Wi-fi & plenty of parking. We love the Shady Shack, 3 mins by boat, great waterfront bar/restaurant with gourmet milkshakes and live entertainment.

We have fishing poles and tackle for fishing in the shed, and even have rod holders built right into the dock. Grab some foldable camping chairs from the shed and set them up on the dock to have a relaxing day catching some fish while sitting next to the fire pit. You are welcome to use as much firewood as you want.

The recreation area in the neighborhood is just a short walk up the street. This has a fantastic beach area with a water slide, picnic tables, volleyball and basketball, a big playground, several spots to dock a boat, and a ramp to put your boat in the water. Please do not park your car here though, make sure to bring your trailer back to the house after dropping your boat - it's just 8 houses up the street. Not very far at all.

Please note, if you plan to bring your boat, a center console or deep v type hull will probably have some problems getting back to our dock. We had a ridiculous amount of rain this winter that washed in a lot of sediment so our cove is a little low this summer.

Spacious and very comfortable
We celebrated my husbands sixtieth birthday with our family at this beautiful home. The description is accurate. The cove out back was very shallow but we were able to launch our paddle boards and the kayaks provided by the host. The lake is a short walk down the road. We rented a boat and picked everyone up at the docks near the beach. Lake Gaston is beautiful! We all enjoyed the home and the area.
