Spacious Lakefront Home, Amazing Views, Nice Dock, Sleeps 20 comfortably-Private

Welcome to Casa del Lago where you can enjoy the best vacation Lake Gaston has to offer.

This is a private location where you can enjoy the water, amazing nature views from everywhere, relax, and have fun any time of year. For the best vacation you will ever have, CONTACT us today.

Casa del Lago is comfortable and beautiful, located on picturesque Lake Gaston - a fantastic place to get away, relax, enjoy nature, and have fun. Every level of Casa has stunning views of the lake with porches on all 3 levels, including a screened-in porch. It is just steps away from the water with easy accessibility and a gradual slope to almost 140 feet of lake frontage! We have a large, beautiful dock with Internet located in a protected cove so your family can swim without concern of boat traffic. It has a large swim platform you can swim/jump/fish off of and an upper sun deck for you to enjoy the sun and incredible views! It also has a jump gate and platform for extreme fun. You don't need a boat to enjoy this lake as we provide Kayaks and Stand Up Paddle Boards for you to get out on the water for further fun in the sun and nature. If you bring or rent a boat, we are very blessed to have over 14 feet of deep water at the dock and in a cove that protects your boat from wakes as well as a private community boat ramp to launch from. This spectacular home is located on Great Creek, which has a 2.5 mile long watersport lane and is only 8 min from Interstate I-85. You will not have to fight boat traffic here at Great Creek!

We know vacations are important! Here is what you really want to know as you are looking to rent a large lake home...

First, your getaway starts immediately with easy, contactless check-in. Just punch in your entry code and your vacation begins! Couldn't be easier.

Second, there's tons of fun to be had, inside and out! We provide water toys in the form of two kayaks and two stand up paddle boards with adjustable paddles and required universal life jackets! We have set up the home with 5 entertainment areas and, of course, we provide high speed internet for everyone to enjoy in the home and on the dock. The first is the main living room with a 65 inch smart Roku streaming TV with a BluRay/DVD player and Youtube TV. The second area is a cool Theater Room in the lower level with another large smart TV with BluRay/DVD player, sound bar system, Youtube TV, and theater seating! Also on the lower level is a card table area and electric dart board. Out in the large parking area is a ping pong table, corn hole game, game of horseshoes, frisbee game of Kan Jam, and a basketball goal where you can showcase all your skills. At the end of the day, you can bask in the hammock watching the sun set or around the lakeside fire pit seeing the lovely night sky fill with bright stars, roasting hot dogs, marshmallows for s’mores, and singing songs or telling ghost stories; use the stack of free wood or buy your own.

Third, after all that fun, we all want to sleep well on vacation! Casa del Lago sleeps 20 comfortably, meaning each room has a fan and everyone has a proper bed - no pull outs! All beds are super comfortable with cool gel memory foam, including the twin beds in the bunk room. This is our family home and we want all our guests to get a great night's sleep. With 6 bedrooms, including two masters, there is also plenty of room and privacy for everyone, the most private being the huge king room with the cool, spiral staircase!

Finally, we try to anticipate your needs. The kitchen is set up with everything you need plus there is a large Weber grill for grilling on the main deck, which is very large and set up with a big, comfortable table for outdoor meals lakeside. And we send you a welcome guide with tons of recommendations on restaurants, grocery stores, fun things to do, you name it - or contact us, we're always happy to give you pointers!

This is our family's home that we use and wish to share with others. We keep our house to a very high standard so that we and our guests can have the best experience at Casa del Lago. It is a great, fun, well-maintained, and clean property for everyone. We ask guests to treat our home as a home and not a rental. We expect guests to be respectful of our home and amenities, and treat it as you would your own home. Our house rules are included in the rental contract shown on this listing if you’d like to see them before you book.

Lake Gaston is a vacationer's dream! Located on the border of Virginia and North Carolina, it is roughly 35 miles long and covers over 20,000 acres with 350 miles of shoreline. It has an average depth of 40 feet but is 95 feet at its deepest point. Bounded by the Kerr Dam and Gaston Dam, it is a managed lake and therefore its water level fluctuates within only one foot under normal conditions year round. Lake Gaston is fed by water from Kerr Lake upstream and supplies water to Roanoke Rapids Lake and the Roanoke River downstream. Heading north, you can enter the river portion of Lake Gaston in about 20 minutes from Great Creek. The river offers miles of calm, deep water and straight runs for water sports. And, the water flowing from Kerr Lake is cool and refreshing even in the summer.

With virtually no pollution, Lake Gaston water is almost drinkable without treatment (having the highest water-quality rating in eastern US by both states: High, Level II rating). The lake is popular for fishing and other water recreation such as swimming, boating, tubing, kayaking, water skiing, wake boarding/surfing, and jet skiing. Lake Gaston is well-stocked with game fish, which include largemouth bass, striped bass or rock fish, crappie, sunfish, carp, and several varieties of catfish. Other species of fish sometimes caught are walleye, yellow perch and chain pickerel. A valid license for either Virginia or North Carolina permits fishing from a boat in either state. We give our guests permission to fish from our dock. And don't miss the Rosemont Winery nearby, which is open year-round for tastings and events.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 6 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and an electric kettle.

Relaxing lake weekend

We had a wonderful time at the lake house with 3 generations of our family. Everyone had fun fishing from the dock, and the space worked well for everyone to have room to spread out if needed. The dock is peaceful and boat traffic is minimal in the cove. Check-in and check-out were easy, and the host provided lots of good advice for the local area. It was a great Mother's Day weekend treat for us!

Great Place

We had a wonderful stay at Casa Del Lago! The views of the lake were absolutely stunning. The property was well-organized, spotless, and everything we needed was provided. The owner was very responsive and made sure we had everything we needed. We stayed over Thanksgiving, and although it was a bit chilly, we still had a great time enjoying the lake, kayaking, and using the paddle board. Highly recommend!

Well maintained property on the lake

House on the lake with an outstanding dock and swimming area in a cove. Not to mention beds for everyone and several places to enjoy whatever you want to do on vacation. Numerous amenities, all of which worked as advertised. The hosts were available to respond to texts when questions came up. Other than food, towels and bed linens, you don’t need to bring anything. (Besides a good attitude). The 16 members of our family ranging in age from 2 to 71 had a great week. We hope to return next year.

Great Place for a lake trip!

We had a fantastic stay at Cada Del Lago! The dock and outside space was perfect for us to pull our jet ski up, dock the boat, and enjoy swimming. The home was clean and had all the needed utensils to grill and cook meals. There were plenty of beds for our group! We did find it slightly inconvenient for the upstairs two kings rooms to not have a joined bathroom but we did travel with infants that napped frequently so it may not be an issue for others. Overall we enjoyed the stay and would recommend it and return in the future!

Fantastic Group Location

We brought a group of teens from our school, and the property and the location were perfect. We had initially planned more day trips, using the house as a launching point. But by the end of the week, most of the teens simply wanted to stay by the house. There were plenty of water activities that kept them active and enjoying themselves. Our hosts were responsive and a joy to work with. The house was immaculate, spacious, and beautiful.

Beautiful home on the lake

Casa del Lago was the perfect home for a family reunion in October. Eleven adults and 3 infants stayed comfortably and thoroughly enjoyed the space and view. There were enough bedrooms for each couple to have their own. The home was super clean and well kept. Our family enjoyed sitting out on deck and taking in the view. We had a warm weekend in October and some of us even took out the kayaks. The open concept was perfect for keeping us all in one room. The kitchen was well stocked. The only thing we would recommend would be to have an extra folding table accesible so that we could seat everyone in the dining room or on the deck since the house can fit up to 20 people. There was ample seating, but we would have loved to have been able to all fit everyone around the same table. Also, we would have liked an option to pay extra for a linen service just so we didn't have to pack towels and sheets since us our cars were all super packed already (all the families were traveling with infants). Matt and Carolyn were super responsive and provided great recommendations. We had a great time at the local winery only 5 minutes away. It was the perfect fall weekend in a beautiful lake house. Thank you Carolyn and Matt for sharing your home with us!

Great family trip

Three generations from 82 - 12 years of age gathered for a week of fun and relaxation. House is nice, lake is amazing. We rented a boat and taught the grandkids how to water ski. The fact that the grandparents could sit on the dock and watch the action was great, we loved that we didn't have to travel far to be in open water. The SUPs and kayaks were used daily, the kitchen was well stocked, the kids watched movies in the theater room every night. Our only complaint was the bathroom situation, we would have loved a 4th bathroom, even a half-bath would have been welcome. But overall we had a great time!!
