About this property

LAKE HOUSE AND PONTOON BOAT IN BEAUTIFUL POE CREEK COVE AT LAKE GASTON

This is a great vacation home on the perfect Poe Creek! The house has 3 floors with great views on every floor. A renovation and addition was completed on the house May 2016.

Big spacious 2020 Benington 25’ Tri-toon with a 150 h.p. Yamaha engine available to rent. It can fit up to 14 people. Bluetooth stereo, fish finder/depth gauge, ski bar, table, bimini top. Boat includes all safety equipment including life jackets. Local rentals charge $2,000+ week, this boat is available at $1,500 per week (summer season rate) and at the dock when you get there! The boat rental fee for off-season months is $250 per night and is required for the entirety of your stay- no partial rentals. Boat rental is available March-November. The boat is not included in the rental fee, so please make sure to inquire about adding on the boat rental if you choose to. If you choose to rent the boat, you must do so for the entirety of your stay.

MAIN FLOOR is an open floor plan with a 47' LCD TV, Blu-ray player, open family room, updated kitchen, full bath and 2 bedrooms (one queen bed, one king bed). The main deck area off the house is on this floor with a 480 sq. ft. screened in porch and gas grill.

UPSTAIRS: Has 2 bedrooms and a full bath. The master has a beautiful view of the lake with a queen bed. The other bedroom sleeps 6 in bunk beds.

BASEMENT: Has a pool table with a convertible ping pong table, large flat screen TV, blu ray DVD, large leather sectional, 2 bedrooms, full bath and the laundry room. One bedroom has a king-size bed and the other has a queen-size bed and a bunk bed. Added in May 2023, Multicade Arcade Machine with Pacman and 40 other games. There is also an additional refrigerator for use in the basement.

OUTSIDE: The boat house was rebuilt in March 2017. The boat house has a covered area with two boat lifts and a slip to the side to tie up a 3rd boat or jet ski. There are 4 kayaks and 2 paddle boards. The boat lift, kayaks, and paddle boards are available for use. The main deck on the lower level is spacious and has a covered picnic table and a diving board. The swimming area is private and protected from boats by the neighboring property. The water is shallow at the bulkhead for younger children to stand in and swim and the water at the end of the dock is 12 feet deep for the diving board and jumping off the top deck.

Pickleball Court beginning in September of 2024. We have made a Pickleball Court in our cul-da-sac (see pictures). Renters are required to provide your own net and racquets and balls.

There are 2 marinas on the lake for gas, good food and boat rentals. This house is honestly one of the best coves on the lake!

The boat ramp is about 7 miles away from house. Take highway 158 toward Roanoke Rapids. Turn left onto Myrick Estates Rd and then right on Bluebird Rd which will take you to the ramp.

Each year we are excited to give 100% of our rental revenue from this lake house to a charity that makes a difference. This year we are happy to support work of Compassion International. Compassion is the world’s leading authority in holistic child development through sponsorship. They work across 39 countries to resource and empower local churches to release children from poverty. They currently have more than 2.2 million children enrolled but the need is still great.

The views, the many seating areas inside and out, and the stocked kitchen were just some of the things that made this a great location for our girls’ weekend. Some in the group took a dip in the lake, and we enjoyed the downtown Littleton shops and the Medoc Mountain State Park for hikes as well.

The house was absolutely perfect . The lake view was amazing! The large screen porch on the back of the house was so peaceful to sit and drink coffee in the early morning while looking out at the lake . We cooked all of our meals in and the kitchen was stocked with everything you could ever think of needing. We had a small celebration of life for my mom and had 13 people stay and there was plenty of room for every one to spread out . The basement area was so much fun with the pool table , ping pong , and 80's arcade games . The house was spotless and decorated so beautifully. The week leading up to our stay my questions were promptly answered and Mary the owner was very kind and helpful .My only wish is that we could if stayed longer . I hope to return to this beautiful house someday .

What a wonderful house for our extended family vacation. The owner communication and check- in process are all so easy. The location is great! Love Lake Gaston! This is the 4th house we've rented and it is our favorite. The dock, upper dock, diving board, paddle boards and kayaks were enjoyed by all. There were nightly games of pool. Kitchen very well equipped. Also lots of spices and dish towels. They are often lacking.

About the host

Hosted by Tom and Mary Vande Guchte

Host profile image
We are the parents of 5 and the grandparents of 8. We love our getaways to Lake Gaston and enjoy the water at all times of the day. This home holds a special place in our hearts with many great memories. Definitely one of the greatest parts of our lakehouse is the water. It is 12 feet deep at the end of our dock and our cove is great for waterskiing or heading out to the main lake for waves for tubing. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

The home sold us on the location and the great views from each floor! We can't say it enough, Poe Creek is the best cove on the lake! It is ideal to be able to swim and boat right off the dock. It is amazing to relax on one of the many decks and just watch the day go by and the sunset, it is truly a getaway!

What makes this property unique

One of the best things about this house is how it feels like a home. It is the perfect getaway for you or your whole family. You will not be disappointed!
