Absolutely beautiful home was well appointed with gorgeous lake views and dynamic sunsets. It very comfortably took care of our family of 9 (Our 2 daughters, their spouses and 3 grandchildren, ages 16, 16 & 18.) With 5 ensuite king bedrooms and a 6th bedroom off the downstairs recreation room there was always plenty of space to spread out or all join together, whether we were in the movie room, great room, dining room or just lounging on the 2nd level deck. Lake Gaston was warm, clean and never felt crowded (and we were on the water every day with jet skis, deck boat, skiing, wake boarding and often just floating off the dock) Shopping and dining very close by. I would especially recommend the 313 Franklin Cocktails & Kitchen, about 20mins awayAnd cant say enough good things about our concierge, Lester!!!! He definitely went above and beyond and was always available to assist with questions, suggestions, unanticipated issues and recommendations! Can honestly say HE was the most helpful and accommodating person we have ever dealt with in our many years of traveling. Would definitely revisit the Magnolia another time and a special Thank you to you, Lester!!!!
