About the host

Host profile image
When we purchased our pleasure boat in 2017, it didn't come with a dock. So, in between the mooring's in the garage, we would book getaways to various waterways near Richmond and found Lake Gaston to be our favorite destination. We fell in love with the area and all the little coves we could explore by boat. We purchased our little piece of heaven as a personal vacation getaway with the possibility of sharing our love of the water with other vacationers like us. We hope you feel like you are at home when you plan your stay at the Summer Fun because we had you in mind when we decided to offer it to you on VRBO.

Why they chose this property

In addition to all the boating opportunities Lake Gaston offered, the general lay back lifestyle of the residents and visitors in the area resonated with us. Our son loves to fish, so when we started looking for a place of our own it was important to have a convenient fishing hole near the dock. Having convenient access to safe water for kayaking was also important. When we found Heritage Pointe this was an easy check on that box. There is a no-wake zone just north of our cove. Finding something tucked away from all the wave action from the main lake, but close enough to access was high on my list, and Heritage Pointe checked all those boxes too. Being a VRBO customer like you before we purchased, gave me insight on what you should expect at your temporary home. Top of the list, was having a dock to tie my boat to. It had to be in good repair and safe, with lighting. Next on my list was convenient access to the main lake by boat. I didn't want to navigate under tunnels or bridges to get to there. Next, a house in good repair without bugs or safety code violations. High on the comfort list, started with comfortable beds, furniture that wasn't falling apart and a fully equipped kitchen. You shouldn't have to pack skillets and measuring cups when you go on vacation, but...I used to. Because some of the rentals were so poorly equipped I started packing half my kitchen in the car. At The Summer Fun, you will have plenty of cookware, utensils, dishes and bowls to make almost anything. So leave all that stuff at home, including saran wrap! There is an electric griddle, vegetable steamer, drip coffee maker, espresso coffee maker, mini chopper, ninja blender, mixing bowls, casserole dishes, wine glasses, measuring cups and spoons, dishwasher tabs, dish towels, grilling tools and propane tank for your use.

What makes this property unique

If you are looking for peace and quiet on your vacation, this is the place for you. Our nearby neighbors are year round residents and not the partying types. They are cordial and will introduce themselves and help you launch a kayak or tie your boat off, but please respect their privacy as they will respect yours. If you are nice, they might introduce you to the best fishing hole on Jimmies Creek and invite you to a fishing challenge.
