Owner's Profile

Owner Description

Year Purchased: 2005

Scott Snyder is a co-founder of Raleigh Investment Real Estate. With a professional background in engineering and law, Scott began investing in income producing real estate thirteen years ago. He is a father of 4 awesome children and husband of a beautiful wife. While looking for a vacation spot for his family he came upon a spectacular home on Lake Gaston, NC overlooking the most expansive portion of the lake, enjoying close proximity to everything, dining, marinas, etc.

He has an extensive background in managing and owning properties in the local area. Have a question? Give him a call!

Why the Owner Chose Littleton

This house just seemed to have everything we needed. Not only does it sleep so many, but what this house had that nothing we saw ever did was a layout that accommodated large diverse groups. Kids have virtually their own living space for Pool, XBox, Ping Pong, even their own kitchen area. While the adults have space for easy living with the ability to survey all that's going on.

The location, simply put, is the best on the lake. It is close to everything, including dining, marinas, services, etc.

The Unique Benefits of this House

This house allows for incredible sunrises and sunsets from the wrap around deck or from the expansive dock. We make available a slip right next to the high dive! Great fishing including Gar, Bass, Catfish and the ever present Sunfish.

    • The Lake Gaston Retreat was AMAZING! It’s hard to find a comfortable, home-like location for a large group, but you’ve found a way to do it.

      Homeowner Response:
      You're welcome J.T.! Thanks for the feedback!

    • We had a great time at your Timberland Retreat. There were 17 of us celebrating my 70th Birthday. It was a surprise/reunion. The house was just wonderful - neat, lots of space, very comfortable. From condiments to bedding to games - everything was provided. We were blessed to have beautiful weather so swimming, sunning, boating and using that large dock made it all perfect. Many thanks.

    • Gaston Retreat was awesome. Our family, 17 in all and age 1 to 60+ had a dream vacation. The lake povided hours of relaxation and fun. The house is very well equiped. It takes a lot to keep all of us happy and Gaston Retreat surely filled the bill.

    • The Gaston Retreat is the perfect family vacation spot. The view of the main lake is exceptional especially the sunrise. The boat house and dock area with the jumping platform was a delight for the kids. The house is well equipped for all kinds of food and fun.
