Thanks Jennifer. If only I could control the weather! The next week was gorgeous :-(. BUT, glad you entertained yourselves under cover. We have tried to make enough fun spaces in the house for the times when the weather doesn't co-operate!

Fabulous!!

I’ve been vacationing at Lake Gaston since 1974 and have never stayed at a more perfect property. From location to waterfront to the beautiful house, it was the best vacation ever.

Amazing, relaxing week at Lake Gaston

We had a great time and highly recommend. The house was amazing and well equipped. Excellent location with a beautiful spot, right on the lake. The house provided access to kayaks and great fishing from the docs. Kevin was also extremely accommodating with our requests and provided recommendations. Thank you Kevin for the great stay.

The house location is amazing! The cove is protected and easy to access main lake or just cruise near the house. The shallow entry close to shore was so nice for our group that included 3 kids that were three or younger. The rooms were well appointed-I don’t think anyone had a bad room. The layout is great and I don’t think anyone felt we were lumped together-enough space for everyone to do what they wanted. The kitchen had everything we needed to make cooking and prep a breeze. We had THE nicest hosts that were super accommodating and accessible for anything we needed (K & R you are amazing). They had a bunch of water toys (a mat, kayaks, paddle boards) plus tons of noodles and vests for us to use as well. Parking is more than ample. TVs in main living areas were enough for our group-everyone was so exhausted by end of day bedtime wasn’t a problem. We will be looking to book this home again without hesitation.

Spectacular Indeed!

Great location on quiet cove. Outstanding water views. Great dock for tanning, kayaking, fishing or just enjoying the evening. Wonderful sunrise from the porch with your morning coffee. Home is beautiful and has everything you could ask for. Check on docking options before booking.

Highly recommend!

The property is beautiful and well maintained by the owners. The property is more of a home than a rental and there are plenty of amenities for a rainy day or a day spent out on the water. Had perfect communication with the owner. We could not have been happier with our choice and the beautiful home.

Great week

What a great stay. The house was lovely and so welcoming. We have already booked for next year. Everything except jumping off the dock is just as listed. Check in was easy. The house was clean, and well laid it. The beds were comfy and the kitchen well stocked. Everyone felt comfortable and relaxed. The basement was wonderful for the kids. The view is spectacular. It was an amazing place on the lake.

Week dreams are made of.

This is the second year we have stayed at Kevin's house. And we will choose it again. It is a perfect location, perfect house, and perfect owner. We have used VRBO for years and this is our favorite. Such a memory making place. This year with all that is happening in the world, it was nice to feel close to normal for a week.

Great house and vacation!

Loved the house. 3 generations of 10. Plenty of room. Lots of stuff in kitchen! Plenty of dish towels. Most places do not have enough. Played pool every night. Water temp was ideal in Aug. Kids loved the lilly pad to jump off. Shallow water is great for little ones.

Great , but the down stairs Freezer part of The refrigerator had open food, old dead fish and other foods in it. The upstairs refrigerator, we had to clean before putting food in it. The cabinets in most bathrooms had medical supplies that the children could have gotten in, which should have been removed and or locked up. The fishing we hooked some big catfish 40 pd, 35 pd, a lot under 30 pds. Game room outstanding, location outstanding, sleeping and other accommodations outstanding

Our family loved this home! The location was perfect and the dock didn’t require an uphill climb to get to it! This home had plenty of room for our entire family! The owner was very responsive and helpful when we had questions. This has been our favorite home at Lake Gaston so far! Thanks for sharing it!

Perfect Lake Home!

We have rented a house at Lake Gaston for the last 5 years for a large family vacation. This house was our favorite yet. The home, dock, lot, and location could not be better. The owners were very responsive and easy to work with. The home was stocked with everything you need. Only bring your food, clothes, and toiletries. The lot and location on the lake are ideal. It is quiet and great for kids to swim and kayak. The large dock allowed our group of 10 to comfortably hang out together on the dock all day,; swimming, fishing, paddle boarding, and kayaking. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Wonderful family getaway

What a fantastic location and home! We have stayed in many homes on Gaston and this by far, was our favorite! The owner was great to work with and check in was easy. The house was very clean and we really enjoyed having the space to spread out with a fantastic walk out basement with lots of room! The bedroom layout was great for extended families or larger groups. Having a second refrigerator downstairs was a nice touch! The property’s landscaping was truly amazing and a blessing to look out at! The kids loved fishing right off the point and the dock, catching nice sized bass. The property is close enough to the main lake and Goat Island, as well as a gas station, it made going out boating very easy. We can’t wait to stay here again!!

The house was all that we were expected and more. Well equipped (big time), clean, spacious and comfortable. The communication with the owner was pleasant and efficient. We are looking forward to have an opportunity to stay again.
