Summer on the Lake at Beautiful Lake Gaston

We’ve stayed here before and this time was just as easy and fun as before. Check in was a breeze, there are stores close enough by that grocery shopping is convenient, and the kitchen has all the utensils and things you need to cook most anything. The view is great, the dock and swimming area is perfect for young kids to adults. We’d stay here again.

It was a very nice time

The house was huge for 16 people . We liked the stay but there are two things I want to mention 1) there were not enough blankets and blankets were too old and washed . 2) as well as the house was not clean enough there were spider webs all over the house .

This house fits our extended family perfectly, everyone having their own bathroom is a luxury! The location on the lake is perfect, quiet and away from the main lake, shallow enough for the kids to feel comfort. This was our second year booking and we are booked again for next year. The one thing I will mention is the cleanliness of the house. This year was worse than last year. The house needs a deep clean, but also needs more attention to the smaller stuff. We come in both years to have to clean the toilets from mold, showers too and there is dust on the ledges every where. This year we had to wash linens. Wish the management company would take a walk through after one of the cleaning ls and see the results that the team does. Ilwe expecte to have to clean a little, especially because it is a quick turn between renters, but for the amount of cleaning we had to do I wonder what the team is doing. No matter though, it's a great house, just know what you are getting!

The house fit us well. The dock was great, spent a lot of time on it. The views were nice. Good location to food stores and coffee shops. Would rent again.

I’d agree with the reviews on here and state that the house definitely needs a deep clean. Things like pots, pans, coffee pot etc also needed to be washed. Overall great older house with plenty of space. Shallow water great for our younger kids.

We enjoyed our stay very much

Our family had an incredible vacation at Beautiful Lake Gaston. The house was nicely stocked with equipment. The extra frig in the basement was a plus but maybe needs to be updated. Had a little trouble regulating the water temp in the upstairs bathroom but not really an issue. We will be back.

This is a fantastic property for a family stay at Lake Gaston. My family including 4 kids from 6 to 18, and my sister in-law's family with 2 more kids from infant to 3 years all had a blast. The fishing was great, the creek was awesome for tubing and skiing without too much traffic, the main lake is close, the dock is big and ties it all together. The house was plenty big for all of us, with large dining and kitchen, lots of gathering spaces, and the older kids enjoyed the ping pong table. Everything was clean when we arrived. We had an issue with one of the bed frames when we checked in. After calling the property manager, the owner personally came out and fixed the issue promptly. The house isnt without quirks, for instance the fridge, microwave, and toaster are all in the same corner of the kitchen, so it frequently felt like several people were all fighting for the same small space even though the kitchen is large. The microwave is a smaller, older style that takes twice as long to cook things as newer/larger models. The end of the dock is in about 4' of water, so not able to dive or do some jumps the kids have been able to at other places. The edge of the dock has bumpers/rails with bolt heads that stick out a little, so be careful where you tie your boat off and use your own bumpers! None of those quirks are anything that would reduce our rating. We thoroughly enjoyed our week on the lake at this property and would recommend to anyone.

Our family spends a week at Lake Gaston every summer. This was our third year at this property. We love it because it is very family friendly, spacious, close to town and a great area to pull the kids behind the boat. The hosts are wonderful and we always enjoy our time here.
