Looking for an escape to the lake? Look no further! Lake Escape is a hidden gem, tucked away in a quiet finger of Lake Gaston offering the perfect place to gather with your friends and family. At Lake Escape, we spend our summers with a speaker and a float hanging out at the dock and the cooler months fishing or cozying up around the fire pit. With 2 kitchens, 2 living rooms, 6 bedrooms, and ample baths, there is enough space for everyone. We custom designed and built this home as a family, with family in mind. The goal was to have large common areas where we could eat and play board games together, laughing and enjoying each other’s company with the perfect balance of privacy so everyone has their own space to retreat and unwind after a good, long day. You will enter our home from the covered carport into the main floor and immediately be met with a beautiful view of the water. On this upper, main floor you will find a huge kitchen and dining room attached to the living room with seasonal fireplace, and two private bedroom suites with attached, private baths. Our kitchen is very well stocked, with lots of seating options for everyone, and the living room is big enough for the whole family! Surrounded by windows, you will have an amazing, unobstructed view of the lake from almost anywhere. Downstairs you will find a secondary kitchen allowing extra storage and refrigerator space as well as a second set of appliances, perfect for cooking for large groups! As you make your way toward the lake, you’ll find the hub. Our living room downstairs is the perfect hangout for the entire family! Downstairs has a more laid back feel and a variety of activities for all to enjoy. Those with a competitive spirit can test their skills at the ping pong table while others can gather on the large sectional to watch a movie, sports, or listen to music! We have upgraded wifi so you will have no problem streaming movies or music (or working if you absolutely HAVE to, but we encourage you not to 😉) We have an “art nook” for the kids (or the kids at heart) and a generous game closet filled with cards, board games, puzzles, trivia, and so much more. The remaining 4 bedrooms are off these main living spaces on the lower level. Our large yard is relatively flat compared to many homes on the lake and is perfect for throwing a football, playing badminton, or a friendly game of bocce ball (all of which are included!). There is sun and fun galore down at the dock, perfect for floating, fishing, or just finding some sun. At the dock, you’ll find lounge chairs for the sun lovers, noodles and a small selection of life jackets for those that want to float, and even a small refrigerator for live bait for everyone who wants to wet a line. Our paddle boat is available for you to use and you may rent kayaks, paddleboards, or boats from various businesses around the lake. Just because the sun goes down, doesn’t mean the fun stops! We have a built in fire pit, perfect for roasting hot dogs and marshmallows for smores. Just bring your own wood! When the fire dies out, sit around a while. The night sky is filled with stars and away from the hustle and bustle of busy life, you can sit back, relax, and enjoy this beautiful place that we get to call home. The “Lake Escape” is located in Tanglewood Shores Golf and Country Club, just 6 miles off Interstate 85, Exit 4 in southern Virginia. For a fee, you can play a round of golf on the community’s 9-hole course, or have access to the community recreation area! The rec area is always a family favorite, you can enjoy the beachy area with roped off swimming section, playground, grills, covered picnic shelters, basketball courts, and docks for fishing. Grocery stores, a marina with (our favorite) on the water restaurant and boat rentals, Rosemont Winery, and more local dining options are only a short drive away. We are so blessed to have this home and the opportunity to share it with you, our amazing guests! Our manager, Faith grew up in this home, on this lake. (Hi, it me, I’m the one writing this bio. Haha!) I have a special insight on the area and all the fun things there are to do and it is always my goal to help you make the most of your getaway. If you are celebrating a special event or just getting together with your friends, please let me know and I may be able to add a little bit of \*sparkle\* to your stay. As a safety precaution required by our home owners insurance, our home is equipped with a doorbell camera at the front door and an outdoor camera covering the exterior doors downstairs. There are absolutely NO cameras inside. These cameras are not monitored, unless there is an issue. If you have an issue, please don't talk to the doorbell! Give me a call or send a text, and I'm happy to help. Make your reservations early to ensure you first choice of weeks. Short notice rentals are available, contact manager for more information.

We loved the lake house and the lot of space for cooking and dining. We did have fun time to enjoy water activities and family gathering. Just few negative things: We found several cockroaches in the house - killed at least 2 inside the capital suite room and 1 in the patio. The mattress quality isn’t that good in general and my family members had to use the air mattresses to sleep on the floor instead. ##### Sze-Wai L.

Three families travel every year to the lake. 6 adults and 8 kids. There was plenty of space everywhere! Kitchen, living, play area, bedrooms, outdoor porches and lawn. We very much enjoyed our stay. The only reason for a 4 star overall review is because we couldn’t jump off the dock into the lake. There are a lot of stumps in the water. But otherwise, it was a wonderful stay! ##### Jennifer L.

Age range was 16 - 76 and we were able to entertain everyone due to space. Everyone was amazed by the space we had because we were able to be together and separate all at the same time. The morning view was awesome having the opportunity to see the sunrise from the living room. Kitchen was stocked with everything and we cooked, lol. Faith is an excellent host and very responsive. She answered all of my questions and was gracious enough to geive us some extra time upon check-out. I would definitely book with her again! ##### Cheryl W.

We loved the extras like 2 kitchens, games and puzzles, firepit (THANK YOU FOR THE SMORE FIXINGS).ots of seating on the dock, decks and inside. Plenty of room for all of us to relax and enjoy our stay. Communication with the owners was easy and they were quick to respond. The only negative was the unused(old) jetski and boat are a bit of an eyesore and the stumps right in front of the dock should be removed. We were told about the stumps, but not all that easy to maneuver around. We damaged and needed to replace the boat prop on the first day. ##### Jennifer H.

Beautiful is an understatement. We had a lot of activities planned for our stay and we did them all, including having a private chef catered dinner on one of our nights and the home accommodated all beautifully. We’re thinking of coming back for thanksgiving. And Faith! Well she was EVERYTHING! Just a great host from the time I knew we were gonna book until we left. Thank you Thank you Thank you. ##### Cynthia R. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### LISSETTE B. 4 Oct 2024 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy #### Nice Lake , filthy bedroom Comfortable house with a beautiful view. There are lots of mobile homes in the neighborhood. Suitable for a family gathering. The carpet in the first bedroom on your left is filthy, and the bed is falling apart. No support for your back. I do have videos and photos. There is a $250 linen fee. The towels are extremely old and small. The AC never WENT BELOW 73 (it was hot, a heat wave). I texted the host and she alleged remotely she was able to see it was 67\. We cleaned the house from top to bottom. We have tons of photos. We stayed four days and three nights. We paid a lot of fees, insurance, linen, cleaning, etc., etc..after the bedroom and AC incidents, we requested a small refund, and she refused. I was expecting better customer service. ##### LISSETTE B.

It was perfect for what we needed. The most well stocked kitchen I’ve ever seen. Communication with Faith was flawless. We would definitely stay here again. ##### Christine W.

Lake Escape welcomed our group with open arms! The house was perfect for our 4 family group of 15\. The double kitchen was just right for us and they were stocked with everything you need. They had all the utensils you can think of including the tools for the Blackstone grill and also a crockpot if you needed it. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful and the beach area was delightful for the kids. The kids loved jumping off the backyard dock into the water and the ability to tie off the jet ski there was a plus. The view from the deck was amazing. Faith was a great communicator and answered any questions we had. We would definitely stay here again. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/41294cc0-fa48-4561-bfce-153c62c78009-1751650343672.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Robbie B. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Dannell C. 27 Jul 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Overall we had a lovely stay. We loved how calm the neighborhood and cove was - perfect for small kids to play in the water together as we didn't have to worry about passing boats. However this also means the water could feel a bit stale at times. We also loved Lake Gaston as a whole and appreciated the proximity to the Shady Shack (by boat). And Faith is an awesome host. She responds quickly and makes sure that you will have a great stay!Some things that took away from an otherwise perfect stay was the stumps that made it difficult for us to navigate parking the rental boat. Some beds probably need to be updated as they were quite squeaky, and there could be a bit more deep cleaning.The house is spacious and there are lots of places to hang out. We loved the fire pit and the deck! And really appreciated all of the water toys and indoor toys that Faith provides. All in all a great stay! ##### Dannell C.
