About our home....
With the exception of the famous 10-bedroom "MacDaddy" home, (also our property vrbo.com/294173) this home (Summer Place) is the #1 ranked vacation property on all of Lake Gaston according to the comprehensive survey from Lake Gaston Rental Homes, LLC. (It was also #1 for 6-bedrooms and below category)
All the 'typical' information is listed below, however, the reason that this home was recently ranked (by far) as a top ranked vacation home is because of the spectacular combination of main lake location, views, quality, and many, many touches throughout the entire house.
The owners spend an average of 70 nights+ per year at the home with their family and are constantly monitoring the home and adding upgrades each and every year.
Recent 'extras' that have been added:
Underwater fishing lights that allow you to see the water come to life with huge fish once the sun goes down. Our kids have caught over 1,000 fish right off the boat dock over the years. From small pan fish to trophy catches. 10-year-old Zack has the longest fish (40' gar) and 12-year-old Jake has the heaviest catch with a 40 lb catfish caught right off of our dock.
Sonos music system on the boathouse and in the main house. Control your own music from your iPhone/droid with a free app.

What makes Summer Place different than the other rental homes on Lake Gaston
For several years we owned & managed several beautiful homes on Lake Gaston. We successfully sold that business, because it was simply too frustrating to have homeowners not invest in their own homes for the satisfaction of our guests. We now only own and operate the "MacDaddy" home on Lake Gaston and rent out Summer Place on a limited basis.

It was easy to access, super clean, appreciated all the finishing touches and super easy communication with owner.
Great overall stay!
The house is a great spot for an annual company retreat! Thank you so much for accommodating us.
This house was beautiful and accommodated 4 families with 10 kids under 8 with ease! It was clean, beds were comfortable, and the view was gorgeous! Thank you for a wonderful weekend!
This property was a lot of fun and well care for. The bedrooms/baths were nice, kitchen had all the essentials, the outdoor activities and amenities were amazing and fun! Owner had the cooler on the deck filled with ice ready for our arrival. The only negative I can think of was the dog hair on the living room furniture. All in all it was a lovely and welcoming home.
Great house! Memorable vacation!
We had an fabulous amazing week!!! Kitchen was furnished with everything. Lots of plastic storage containers, ziplock bags, trash bags, had dishwasher soap as well as lots of cleaning supplies. Coolers everywhere for you to use. Kids enjoyed having TVs in every room including the downstairs family room, after dinner movie/video time. The indoor surround system that also works at the boat house. Brought on family singing & name that tune. We had a minor hiccup but Vicki was very accommodating & had problem resolved the next afternoon. Hiccup brought many more laughs & memories. Vacationing with 13 teenagers can be never wrecking, however with all the outdoor activities, paddle boarding , Kayaking
Property exactly as advertised and homeowners were perfect hosts. Beautiful and relaxing spot.
We came to this property to celebrate a birthday for one of our family members. With 3 families, we were very comfortable spreading out amongst the bedrooms across 3 floors. The property itself was very clean and well-stocked with all of the items you might need. The owners were helpful throughout the process - helping us to find a local gym to workout, providing highlights of the area, and addressing a minor issue with the wifi during our stay.
This makes the second time staying here in consecutive years for our families large Christmas gathering. We have 10 adults and 10 children and there is room for everyone. The house is fantastic with an amazing boat house, fire pit, hot tub, ping pong table, etc for everyone to enjoy. TVs galore and stunning views. Quickly becoming a family tradition for us and Vicki couldn’t be easier to work with. We’ve only stayed here in December but I imagine this place to be an absolute blast during the summer with all it has to offer.
