A few more tid-bits... :)
1. Trained service animals are welcome! Otherwise, we have a strict "no pets" policy.
2. The house, like 99% of all lake homes on Lake Gaston, uses a septic system. This system is a finely balanced biological system. Please help us keep it working flawlessly by flushing ONLY toilet paper. Renters are responsible for any damage caused by misuse.
3. Bow-Riders and deep draft Wake Board boats need to check their Hummingbirds to ensure adequate depth in all coves. Pontoons should have no issues and everyone is welcome to tie off at the dock with rental boats. Please make sure to bring your bumpers!.
4. Culverts & Bridges: Be sure to lower your Bimini top when going under bridges or through culverts. Appearances can be deceiving, and the water levels can flucuate daily!
5. Life Jackets: While a variety of life jackets are provided, they are not guaranteed in every size. Please bring life jackets specific to individual needs.
6. Security Camera Disclosure: We take your privacy very seriously. However, this home is monitored by exterior security cameras in the following locations: Camera under the front porch roof to the left of the front door - pointing towards the front door Camera above the kitchen door on the lake side of the house point down at that door Camera above the garage door on the lower level Camera above the basement bedroom door pointing down the trail leading toward the lake

Our family has been coming to LKG for almost 15 years. Our teenagers have grown up spending a week with their cousins on the lake and everyone from ages 10 - 50 said this was their favorite place. The home is beautiful, the dock setup was awesome, and everything was better than advertised.

We are so glad you and your family enjoyed your time here. We are glad we got to host you! We hope you can plan a trip again in the near future!
Our stay in the Yellowstone was amazing. To be honest, we spent most of our time on the dock, which provided enough room for our party of 16 adults and 4 children. Don't get me wrong, the house was beautiful, again 20 people and no one was on top of another, plenty of room between the living room, dining room and decks. I would recommend the Yellowstone, especially if you are just looking to hang out with your family! We brought with us a jet ski, bass boat and pontoon, it worked out great! Lake was warmish and calm.

Thank you for your kind words and review. We are thrilled that you had such a wonderful stay at The Yellowstone! Please come back again!
A wonderful experience for my annual family retreat!
Our family had an unforgettable time at this stunning log cabin! The views of the sunset over the lake were absolutely breathtaking, and we couldn’t have asked for a more picturesque setting. The cabin was well-equipped with tons of fun activities – from shuffleboard to board games – and the kayaks were a fantastic way to explore the lake. The beautiful dock was perfect for swimming, and we spent hours enjoying the water.
This home truly has it all, offering both relaxation and adventure in a gorgeous setting. We will absolutely be recommending The Yellowstone to friends and family for their next getaway!
Our family takes a week vacation to either a lake or a beach. We chose Yellowstone at Lake Gaston having never been there before. It was wonderful!! The family consists of our children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Everyone wants to go back to Yellowstone next summer. I’ll be making that reservation soon. The house was very well stocked with everything we might need. We did need kitchen towels and dishrags. The boat dock was terrific. The paddle boards and kayaks were enjoyed but one paddle board did have a crack when we got there. We did rent a golf cart to take us old folks and supplies back and forth to the dock but it wasn’t a bad walk. The weather was wonderful except a storm one night. A couple of doors leaked but it was a very windy and blowing sheets of rain. Looking forward to next year!!

Thank you so much for the kind words and thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to hear that your whole family—kids, grandkids, and even great-grandkids—had such a wonderful time at The Yellowstone. It sounds like the perfect multigenerational getaway!
We’d absolutely love to welcome you back next summer. Just say the word when you're ready, and we’ll help make it another unforgettable week at the lake!
Our sewing group from church had a 3 day retreat at The Yellowstone. The house and grounds are lovely. The kitchen is well appointed. We were able to relax on the deck and also work on various projects. When we checked in one of the two refrigerators wasn’t working. The property manager immediately sent out a maintenance person to check it. Unfortunately it needed repair. Within 2 hours I had a call from the owner saying a brand new one puls be delivered first thing in the morning. It was about 7 PM, so that was very reasonable. The refrigerator came, as promised. This issue was resolved in a very prompt and concerned manner. Kudos to the property manager and owner. The location on the lake is lovely. I would definitely stay here again.

We’d love to have you back anytime. It sounds like a lovely group, and we’re so happy The Yellowstone could be a part of your time together.
