About the host
Hosted by Ginny Porter
We designed Hemlock Haven as we wanted a family and dog-friendly lakefront getaway. We love the friendly, amenity-rich golf course with pool and recreation neighborhood. We love being on the water, kayaking, paddle boarding, visiting Rosemont Vineyards (1 mile away), and Shady Shack waterfront restaurant (across the water). We love hosting, giving 5 star Southern hospitality, and making unforgettable vacation experiences.
Why they chose this property
Tanglewood Shores is a beautiful, peaceful golf community that we love with friendly neighbors, community pool, recreation area with large beach, pickleball courts, and playgrounds that is across the water from our favorite waterfront restaurant, Shady Shack, and 1 mile away from our favorite local vineyard, Rosemont Vineyards.
What makes this property unique
Hemlock Haven has direct views of the beautiful Lake Gaston. It’s on a calm area of the lake with deep water, includes a private dock for relaxing, fishing, and playing with a small private beach and lake toys to include a paddleboard and kayaks. We love kids & pets and welcome dogs at no charge. The home has been recently renovated to enhance the beauty of the home. We want our guests to have the best experience and strive to provide 5 star Southern Hospitality.
