Lakefront Outdoor Living
Enjoy classic Lake Gaston living with a spacious deck overlooking the water, ideal for morning coffee, grilling and enjoying family meals, or winding down after a full day on the lake with an outdoor table and chairs. The private dock with boat slip makes boating, fishing, swimming, and tubing easy and convenient. Kayaks, paddleboard and a large water mat are available for the adventurers or enjoy the lounge chairs on the upper dock while reading a book or soaking in the sun.

There is plenty of space for the little (and big) kids to play. After the long day at the lake, grab a glass of wine or a beer and sit around the large firepit to reminiscing about the day and enjoy the relaxing cool lake evening.
