We had a great stay at this lake house and would definitely return! Overall, everything went very well, and we had no concerns during our visit. There were a few minor issues left behind by the previous renters, but the hosts were incredibly responsive and resolved them so quickly, they did not impact our stay or our comfort at all. The hosts were great to communicate with and very attentive when we reached out. We also really appreciated the furniture and cleanliness. It was comfortable, well-maintained, and noticeably nicer than some of the older, worn furniture we’ve experienced at other lake rentals. The location was another big plus. It was convenient to the lake while still being close to local restaurants, a brewery, and some shopping. The rental was definitely as advertised and looks JUST like the pictures. We really enjoyed our stay and would absolutely book this property again!

This house was very clean and stocked very well. We had 6 adults and 4 children 8 and under. Plenty of beds although it can feel a bit cramped if we all end up in the kitchen/living area. Having a grill, and blackstone was a nice convenience. The t.v. At the dock is a nice touch. Dock and patio furniture was all very nice. Fridge at the dock would be a nice addition. Beautiful fire pit with plenty of chairs provided. S’mores night was a blast for all. We had great weather so we spent most of our days on the lake. Close proximity to grandmas island and goat island. Only drawback I can recall was the construction noise and tree cutting going on at nearby properties. Overall a great stay. Thanks!

The house/neighborhood was very quiet and lovely. The owners were very responsive to any question posed to them. Everything was clean and everything worked. Very comfortable beds. And downstairs was great with the games and extra fridge. Fire pit was awesome. Dock made for great fun and relaxing and catfishing. Thoroughly enjoyed kayak and extra vests and swim mat. If I had to say to add anything to the experience I would recommend some kind of refrigerator at the dock house if that is a possibility. Overall, this place was exactly what a family would need for fun and memories. We would definitely consider staying there again in the future. Thanks for sharing your home.

The house was clearly newly renovated and decorated nicely. For such a home the hosts made use of every space. To say this house sleeps 14 is technically true but the small living room and kitchen made it impossible for everyone to hang out/eat at the same time. The cookware was small for a house accommodating that many people so I had to cook in batches so I spent allot of time by the oven instead of the lake. They only offer a 4pm check in which I wish I had seen before we booked because that is very late and there is no leniency on that, but that is a personal preference. I notified the hosts that my son went to hang one towel on their towel rack and it fell off the wall and they responded thanking me for letting them know then charged me 151 for the damage. I am also a short term rental owner and have never had a complaint as a renter as I am very aware of how hard it is to host and treat every property with the utmost care but 151 for a towel rack?!?! And one that literally fell off the wall with one towel on it. Our family visits Lake Gaston every year but we will not be returning to this property.
