Macon Memories, a Great Place to Stay
We stayed at Macon Memories for a week at the beginning of July. There were 10 of us between the ages of 10 and 80 years old. It was very clean, had a very well stocked kitchen, a comfortable living room, lots of games, and on a desirable area of the lake. Bill, our host, was immediately responsive to any questions or needs we had. Only slight problems I would mention - the internet often was slow, both because there were so many visitors on the Lake over the July 4th week and that internet is hard to get all over the Lake (we had trouble with it in a different house last year). Bill promised that by next year that problem would be fixed. There also is no bathroom near the "loft" bedroom. But, both the kids and the adults had an absolutely delightful time because there were so many activities. There were many steps down to the water, where the kids loved jumping off the upper deck of the dock and swimming. All of us played ping pong, pool, and several board games in the comfortable downstairs area. We rented a boat, behind which we skied and tubed, and a jet ski, both of which we enjoyed immensely. Getting the 4 cousins (between the ages of 10 and 17) together is always a treat since it only happens about twice a year and they get along well. The adults relaxed, read, and played with the children. All in all, we had a fun-filled vacation with 10 people!

Best on the lake
Olde Ferry Estates has been the best to date for our lake vacations, everything was as described, or better than advertised. Two families with infants, young adults, teenagers, and adults spent the week, and were not disappointed. Plenty of beds, bathrooms, and space to accommodate all. The kitchen is well stocked, better than most stores, plenty of pots, pans, coffee makers, and even a waffle maker. the pool table kept the kids busy when not in the water. the upper deck was definitely a hit with everyone, even the geezers ... bill the host was extremely responsive and checked in to ensure everything was ok. hands down, this is the best overall experience to date

Annual lake family vacation
This was our third stay on Lake Gaston and by far the best! The Connell’s home was perfect for our three families with more than ample room and to quote my young granddaughter, “very pretty!”. The counter top ice maker was a game changer and all of our great meals were prepared in the well stocked kitchen. We also enjoyed the lake along with the provided kayaks and paddle boards. We rented a pontoon and still had plenty of room for our boards and floats. Everyone agreed we would like to return next year.

Teacher Vacay
Five teachers and their families stayed at this amazing property for a week. The house was the perfect size for all 5 families. Plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms, and space to accommodate all of us. The amenities (dock, jump off dock, fire pit, paddle boards, kayaks, and pool table) kept us all busy and entertained all week.

About the host

Hosted by Bill Connell

Host profile image
Bill, Audrey, Julia(19) and Jeff (17) live in Cary, NC outside of Raleigh. We love all kinds of outdoor activities, but lake activities are by far our favorite! After 10 years of towing our boat from Raleigh to Lake Gaston and dreaming about owning a place here one day, in 2017 we made our dream a reality! We hope you enjoy the house as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

This property has all of the luxury amenities you deserve on your vacation. The home is big enough to share with another family or two and you can bring your own boat or jet skis. The dock is perfect for jumping in the 10 ft+ of water for the kids or just sunbathing for the adults. All of the kids can easily be seen from the house deck while they are playing. The water at the dock is calm for docking the boat, swimming, and fishing but yet the main lake is right around the corner! There are no bridges to navigate to get out to all the main lake fun! The focal point of Lake Gaston, Eaton Ferry Bridge, is right around the corner about 1 mile by boat where you can visit marinas or restaurants by boat. Enjoy!

What makes this property unique

Large Luxury home with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. Beautiful views of the lake from the house and deck. Outdoor shower, beautiful hard-scaped path to the dock including a fire pit! Double dock has plenty of boat parking on either side. On top is an expansive sun deck with jump gate for kids and sunbathing for adults while enjoying gorgeous views of the main lake seconds away!
