Henrico, North Carolina
Our Lake Gaston cottage is located in a low traffic open cove just off the main lake. Enjoy swimming, fishing, boating or just relaxing in the perfect location. The dock features full sun almost all day. Boaters can tie up on either side of the dock. There is a diving board for the gymnasts in the family. Plenty of room for chairs or laying out. The house is located in a subdivision with quick access to a gas/ convenience store. Restaurants and a strip mall with a Food Lion is just a few miles down the main road. Three bed rooms and a futon sofa ensures plenty of sleep area for this small cottage. one bedroom features a queen bed. the second bedroom has a full size bed. The third bedroom features two sets of bunk beds (one with a full size bed on the bottom). Sorry, but we dont have a TV, or a phone land line (we like the fact that lake Gaston is our get-a-way we can forget the bustle and distractions of the work week or the city). Trust us, you will not miss them at all. There is high speed internet and most cell phones have decent signal from the house and dock. There are two bathrooms, one with a stand alone shower and the other with a tub/shower. There is both drip and Keurig machines for coffee lovers.
PLEASE NOTE we have a septic system! please do not flush anything but human waste and toilet paper down the drains.
We are pet friendly! But please clean up after your pets.
There is plenty of parking so bring the whole family. Welcome to lake Gaston! Enjoy!
This was a very nice stay. There was a small issue about the cleaning, but it didn't affect our stay. Windows and cobwebs mostly. But a very nice place and very nice neighbors.
We were a family of 4 that met our friends for a weekend at the lake. The view is fantastic and the house inside was clean and neat. Overall we had a great time. I have to say that the landscaping could be neatened, the house and porch could use a powerwash and some of the planks should be replaced.
We absolutely loved our stay at Jeff’s place. We had three kids and two dogs and still had plenty of space. The location; nestled off in a quiet cove with a dock for our rental boat, and a diving board! It was exactly for what we were looking. Jeff was very accommodating to our needs and requests. Overall I would highly recommend this stay to anyone looking for a much needed getaway from the bustling 9-5 world.
The view from the dock looks out from the cove to the main lake. The four of us could sit comfortably on the Adirondack chairs on the dock. The porch was a great place to read or just sit to look out to the lake. The house is older and could use some updating. The kitchen was short on utensils (bring your own sharp knives, measuring cups and spoons).
Location is fantastic, neighbors are super nice. The property is aging however that’s not the issue. The property was dirty upon showing up and could use a deep clean. Cobwebs, old food, molded coffee and a stale smell.
Great location, wonderful views
Decided to look for a last minute quick get away, and found this wonderful property! Beautiful location, private & wooded on one side, easy water access & great fishing dock. The owner has really put time & effort into his home and it shows! Many extras & the camp is a lot nicer, open & super clean. Enjoyed sitting on the porch watching the water & sunset and walking down to the dock with our golden retriever who walked into the water several times. Thanks so much Jeff, for your prompt communication & providing such lovely camp accomodations! Definately will be back!
Overall experience was very good and easy
The house is as advertised. The view is amazing, trees, cove looking out onto the big lake. Perfect for morning coffee on the dock, boating, swimming and relaxing all day long. Finished with the sunset through the pines. Look forward to coming back again. Our dog had her boundaries with the tree lined lot.
We all loved the deep water for swimming and were able to easily dock our own boat. The kids fished half the night and the dog swam half the day. We enjoyed relaxing on the deep, shady porch which has a gorgeous view of the water.
The home was quaint and simple nothing fancy. Good location on the water. No wi-fi or televisions at all. So a good place to completely unplug.
We had a blast here! Everyone in our family had their own space and the kids LOVED the diving board. We brought a boat so the dock was so convenient. The house is a perfect location on the lake. It is close to Washburn's marina and a short boat ride to the Point! Would definitely recommend this place!
The water is beautiful, fishing was great! The house and property are in need of attention and repairs. This rental would not be family friendly because of the owners unlocked liquor cabinet, unsafe walkway, unstable dock, persistent stale smoke smell, general unclean feeling, and lack of smoke alarms. I hope the owner will make the needed repairs to this home because the location is great.
