A few more tid-bits... :)
1. Trained service animals are welcome! Otherwise, we have a strict "no pets" policy. We can help arrange lodging for your pets (as long as they are up to date on shot records which must be provided) at a local boarding facility during your stay, if you'd like; just give us a call...way in advance, as they fill up fast!
2. The house, like 99% of all lake homes on Lake Gaston, uses a septic system. This system is a finely balanced biological system. Please help us keep it working flawlessly by flushing ONLY toilet paper. Renters are responsible for any damage caused by misuse.
3. Bow-Riders and deep draft Wake Board boats need to check their Hummingbirds to ensure adequate depth in all coves. Pontoons should have no issues and everyone is welcome to tie off at the dock with rental boats.(make sure to bring your bumpers!).
4. Culverts & Bridges: Be sure to lower your Bimini top when going under bridges or through culverts. Appearances can be deceiving!
5. Security Cameras: A camera is mounted on the shed and observes only the driveway and side entrance. There are no other cameras on site.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and 2 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a sofa bed, and a coffee maker.

What a great place to stay
The pictures don’t do this place justice at all. It was absolutely beautiful and amazing. My son and I did a father son get away before he leaves for boot camp. We fished for 2 days. Had a bonfire, grilled out and had an amazing time that we will talk about for a very long time. I plan on doing a a trip here again with my wife.

The perks of the Perch
Our family and friends had such an amazing weekend at the property. We got to explore the lake, swim in the water and enjoy the beautiful views the porch and patio had to offer. The way the sun beams through the windows in the morning is enough to make you want to stay forever. The property managers were incredible to work with and the home was immaculate. We certainly had a 5 star experience and look forward to visiting again!
