About this property

Beautiful Waterfront Retreat w/3 Living spaces w/3 full Kitchens & a sandy beach

This is an amazing one of a kind lake front property with three separate living units on the same property AS WELL AS a boat house & large PRIVATE BEACH! Perfect for Weddings, Family Reunions or Multi-Family Vacations!

The main house, The Mainstay, boasts incredible lake views from inside as well as from the expansive back deck. The gated deck is ideal if young children are in your party. The Mainstay sleeps 15 across three levels with 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths and a laundry room.. The downstairs play area has a full size foosball table.

The detached cottage has two separate units affectionately known as Bikini Top & Bikini Bottom.

Bikini Bottom is handicap accessible, sleeps 8 in two bedrooms, full kitchen, has a laundry room as well as a soothing view of the lake from the screened in porch.

Bikini Top sleeps 9 in two bedrooms, full kitchen, and has a fun view of the lake from the private upper deck.

There is a boat house and an expansive private beach equipped with beach chairs and an umbrella several screened in porches, fire pit area and so much more. Included in the rental is a paddle board and kayaks. Enjoy cooking outside on propane grill availabe as well.

There is parking for boats on either side of the boat house. PLEASE NOTE: Slips and lifts are not available for use with rentals.

We hope you enjoy your stay and make a million wonderful memories while staying at our home. If you are in search of an amazing retreat where you and your family/friends can come stay together (and apart in your own unit)...it doesn't get any better than this! If you're looking for a place to whoop it up and party...our retreat is not for you. Our neighborhood is very much family oriented, peaceful and laid back. As one of very few rentals in the entire area, we are excited to share the LKG experience with you and ask in return that you respect our neighborhood/neighbors.

Work Retreat
The leadership team for my company spent a couple of days at this amazing lake side property. It was perfect for a larger group. The owners were excellent at communicating prior to the stay to ensure that we were prepared with everything from parking plans to meal planning. This is a beautiful home in a prime location on the lake. We enjoyed the beautiful view and all of the amenities offered at this home. It is a 10! Highly recommend it!

Big family home
Great property with 3 separate living areas and 3 kitchens. Paddle board, kayaks and beach area were a nice addition to our stay. House was clean, linens were fresh. Only downside were the multiple hornets and wasps constantly around us. We had a lot of stings and this was unfortunate. The cove was wonderful for swimming and just hanging out with the kids.

Fabulous place for family and friends
We had two families of three generations at the lake; kids from 4 months to 16 yrs and the property was great for all. The dock and beach are a wonderful place for all the kids to play. The water in front of the beach was perfect for the little ones and the cove is nice for the older croud. The bikini top and bottom worked out really well for the families with infants and toddlers. The lawn was great for cornhole and lawn darts. The cove is nice and quiet and has a beautiful view of main lake too. The house is well equipped with all the amenities, and extras. Overall we could not have found a better place for our group! Thank you again for such a wonderful vacation!

About the host

Hosted by Stephen Mangum

Host profile image
We have a large blended His, Mine & Ours Family! We have 9 children and currently have 5 grand children! We absolutely adore the Lake and all the fun memories it provides on each and every visit! We look forward to watching generations of Mangum's grow up on beautiful Lake Gaston! This beautiful lake retreat will be part of our family history and memories for years and years to come! We wish the same wonder and enjoyment for our guests as well!

Why they chose this property

We've owned a home at the Lake for years but when this one came available we knew it was perfect for us...and hopefully for your family as well! There is a ton of space for gathering, playing, laughing and relaxing...as well as plenty of individual space for some much needed privacy when things get crazy as often they do with large gatherings! The community is super friendly and very family oriented.

What makes this property unique

Our home offers a little bit of something for everyone....swimming, boating, private sandy beach lounging with lots of chairs, room to play football & cornhole, great fishing off the dock and three complete kitchens and living spaces. Outdoor area is beautiful and spacious.
