Great Place!

We had a great stay at the Wee Blue Inn. Cozy cottage with many amenities. Enjoyed the lakefront view from both the house and dock. The communication from the owner was spot on with quick responses to questions and flexibility with check - in.

Amazing Family Getaway

We had the most amazing time at the Wee Blue Inn. The location was perfect, close to everything you need. The property manager was prompt with answering questions. The amenities were excellent. The lake was perfect. Deep enough to jump off the dock with a sand bar close by to just hang out and float around. We have stayed at several lake houses at Lake Gaston and everyone in our group agrees that this was the best place we have stayed at and look forward to coming back again.

Perfect lake vacation

My family had a great time at this property. House was clean with plenty of room in a nice neighborhood. Excellent rental with all the things! The kids/young adults enjoyed kayaking, swimming, paddle boarding, fishing and playing games. We spent most of the day on the nice dock. The private boat ramp so close by was an added bonus. I would definitely book this property again.

RELAXING home on lake; perfect for our family

Great time

Location is fantastic. In a cove that is easy to access the main lake with some, but not a lot of boat traffic. Close to grocery store etc. House is nice and comfortable. Owners worked with us for everything we needed. Spent a lot of time swimming and on the dock. Dock provided right combination of sunny area and shade. Had a great time.

Wonderful Getaway

Five stars from start to finish. This was a wonderful vacation for my whole family. The house is even better than we could have hoped. The private dock with all the fun water toys kept us all busy from sunup to sundown. The location was perfect for the laid back vibe we were hoping for and felt like we had our own personal spot at the lake. My kids are already asking if we can come back next year, and I can’t wait (unless we buy a place of our own :))!

Precious little blue paradise

We enjoyed a lovely 4 nights here. Our favorites about the house were the deck and docks spaces. At the lake those make a house and this house is amazing with seating, lightening, views, music and just overall comfort! We loved the kayaks and just relaxing! The house was beyond comfortable for our family of 5. I loved the decor and how they took an older house and really made it cute, clean, modern and comfy. Would definitely recommend to friends.

About the host

Hosted by Matt Ohlschlager

Host profile image
We are a family of 4 who enjoy the outdoors and lake life. We have been boating and enjoying time at the lake for over 10 years.

Why they chose this property

This home is located on a quiet cove with wide open views and deep water right off the end of the dock. The cove is off of Pea Hill Ceek, the largest creek at Lake Gaston, providing miles of protected water for skiing, wakeboarding, and tubing fun.
