Embrace the enchanting charm of Lake Gaston. With breathtaking views and exclusive amenities, this luxurious retreat promises a memorable experience for nature lovers and water enthusiasts alike.

Location:
This house is located on the Southeast side of Lake Gaston.
Nearest Boat Launch: Ferncliff has a boat launch. It's up Pretty Creek about 5 minutes by boat and about a mile by car.
Nearest Grocery: Piggly Wiggly, Littleton, NC (5 miles)
Nearest Essentials Store: Dollar General, Littleton, NC (5 miles)
Nearest Gas Station: Valero, Littleton, NC (5 miles)
Nearest Marina: Washburns (5-10 min by boat)

To get you started...
The bathrooms are stocked with courtesy soaps and shampoos designed for quick "off the shelf" use. Each bathroom has a roll of septic-friendly toilet tissue as a starter. You are encouraged to bring whatever you feel you might need beyond the courtesy items provided.

The kitchens are stocked with one roll of paper towels, one trash bag for the kitchen trashcan, trial-size dish soap, two dishwasher pods and 1 sponge. You are encouraged to bring whatever you feel you might need beyond the courtesy items provided.

A few more tid-bits... :)

* 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.

* 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.(make sure to bring your bumpers!).

* Culverts & Bridges: Be sure to lower your bimini top when going under bridges or through culverts. Appearances can be deceiving!

amazing long weekend in a beautiful house and perfect location!

House is very well remodeled with lots of fun extras and nice touches (well supplied kitchen, amazing screen porch, fire pit and supply of wood, lots of room, everything new and upgraded). The boat dock was our favorite place to hang out and center for jet skis, kayaks, paddle boards, beautiful views and perfect spot for morning coffee.

5 Stars – Perfect Weekend Getaway!

We had an absolutely perfect stay at this beautiful home. The interior and exterior were both stunning—spacious, clean, and thoughtfully designed. There were 8 adults in our group for the weekend, and there was more than enough room for everyone to relax comfortably. The couch was super comfy, and all the beds were cozy and inviting.We also rented a boat from Eaton’s Ferry Marina, and docking at the house was a breeze. The water depth was just right, making the whole experience seamless and stress-free.Overall, this place exceeded our expectations, and we would definitely book again for another getaway!

Amazing Lake Gaston rental

Our family had a fantastic week here! The outside area was great especially the dock. The kids loved the kayaks! The rooms were spacious and there was enough kitchen equipment for us to utilize and made it possible to make meals daily. The ice maker was a huge bonus as we normally bring an extra when vacationing. The beds are new and the other furniture was very comfortable as well. We truly enjoyed our time here. We will be back!

Family lake trip

House is beautiful, but the house had been cleaned and left dormant and not checked before arrival. Door locks did not work properly and the AC in the main sleeping quarters did not work and was not fixable during our trip. Again, house was beautiful. Location was great on the lake.

Great long weekend at the lake

The house is tastefully decorated, in great condition, and well stocked. We especially appreciated the Sonos system for music and the outdoor spaces for eating, relaxing, and game-playing at night. The location on the lake is quite convenient, and the water off the dock is deep, clean, and inviting for swimming. The property manager was exceedingly accommodating - she helped us with some questions after we left and even left a tasty baked treat in the house to welcome our arrival! We would definitely stay at this property again and would recommend it to others.

Robertson vacation

Great Trip. House was perfect for our family. Wide open space perfect for everyone to hangout without being on top of one another. Was very clean and with fully stocked kitchen which was nice as we cooked every meal. Lake dock was also clean and provided plenty of shade. We had a jet ski and 21’ boat still had plenty of room to swim and fish. We spent a lot of time at night and early morning hanging out in the screened in porch. Will definitely go back and recommend to others.

Wonderful Vacation

Because of the pandemic, we wanted a place, within easy driving distance, where we would have plenty to do right on sight. This property was perfect! Beautiful home, grounds, dock, view! This property was perfect for us. The house is so roomy and well furnished, the screened porch is inviting, large, and comfortable. The views are exquisite! Even when you are inside, you feel like you're outside too. The boathouse is full of things we used for water fun! We rented a jet ski for a couple of days and that was a big hit. We prepared all of our meals at the house, and the kitchen had everything we needed and more! Thank you so much for sharing your property with us. It's a vacation we will never forget!

Hello Lake Gaston

This home was perfect for our family! We have 2 grandchildren 15m and 8m, they had so much space to walk, crawl and play without running into furniture! The screen porch was perfect for their early morning play while others slept. The kitchen was very well stocked and the appliances we’re excellent. The porch was our favorite family gathering place. The weather could not have been more perfect. We even had s’mores at the fire pit! Picture perfect vacation 😎 I would love for us to come again when it’s not a holiday week/weekend. The lake was a little rough, but we did enjoy our boat rides and water skiing! Our first trip to Lake Gaston was perfect! Thanks for sharing your home on VRBO! Carol Smith and family
