Thank you Pat for another wonderful vacation! We always enjoy fishing from the kayaks and the ease of launching them from the shoreline. Our biggest catch of the week was a 34" cat fish caught on light tackle from our fishing kayak! The shady area and shallow shoreline is perfect for young children. The house is comfortable and a great location. Pat is always very helpful in ensuring you have a good time. We are already looking forward to returning in the spring!

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.

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!

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!

Great Fishing Week/Great House

I rented this house for my husband and his buddy for their annual fishing trip. He could not say enough good about it! He said the location was perfect, the house was immaculately clean and very well stocked with all the kitchen supplies, linens, etc., that you would need.Pat, the host was very responsive with any questions. My husband and his fishing buddy plan to rent it again for next years trip. I highly recommend this house, you won’t be disappointed.

Best rental at Lake Gaston!

We've stayed at this lake house for several years and it's always comfortable, clean and relaxing. The back porch is perfect for meals and fellowship and the lake side view is beautiful. We always enjoy using the kayaks and paddle boards. This trip we caught a few cat fish, shell crackers, bream and white perch while kayaking. Thank you Pat for another wonderful vacation!

Clean Cottage Great Area

This cottage is magical. The perfect blend of a country cottage with all the modern conveniences in a great location. The entire cottage was spotless. Crisp sheets and bath towels were provided. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. There is a gravel walk down to the pier where we loved floating in the water and watching the sunrise each day. Check in and check out was well explained and all questions were answered. Close to Food lion for any items we needed. Loved our time staying here on the lake.

Nice Getaway

Host (Pat) responded timely when we had questions & seemed genuinely interested in helping us make the most of our vacation. The house is located in a quiet neighborhood and it was clean upon arrival. The linens were fresh & looked fairly new. (We’ve stayed at other homes in past where that was not the case). It was nice not having to pack bedding & towels nor wash linens when we left. The house is small with only one full bath (downstairs) but it worked fine for us this trip. Seniors & those with small children or handicaps should note that all bedrooms are located downstairs & a narrow spiral staircase is the only back exit from the upper deck. Again this wasn’t problematic for us but it could be for others. We loved floating at the dock and the host supplied plenty of lake toys for us to enjoy. The covered dock was not wide enough for our small boat to enter but there was enough space on pier right beside it to dock our boat on water during our stay. Also, loading was easy since the boat ramp is located just a few yards away. We enjoyed spending time on the back covered deck & on the swing at the dock. We are already looking forward to our next visit! Thanks again Pat!
