We are a family with children, we have rules for our children. No eating in the bedrooms, solids only in the family rooms
Why the Owner Chose Henrico
We chose a home on Lake Gaston for the proximity to Raleigh, NC. Driving 1.5 hrs vs. driving 3 hrs to the beach made the difference for us. There is no comparison in traffic. Heading to the beach is bumper to bumper, we seldom see 5 cars at any given time.
Convenient to Food Lion, Drug Store, Ace Hardware, Liquor Store, ATM, Gas Station with Wi-Fi, Pizza, Andy's, Morningstar Marina and restaurants. Our favorite dining spot is 'The Watersview Restaurant'.
Adam Field's Wakeboarding School is also located in Lizard Creek
The Unique Benefits of this House
Our home sits on a quiet cove, with spectacular views of the lake.
