Water You Wating For? | Waterfront Fun & Relaxation

Water You Waiting For? Pack you bags and get ready for the ultimate Lake Gaston getaway! This 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom lakefront retreat has everything you need for a trip filled with relaxation, adventure, and plenty of fun. From the moment you walk in, the wall of windows draws your eyes straight to the water, setting the tone for lake life at its best. The open-concept floor plan makes it easy to gather with family and friends, whether you're cooking up a feast in the well-stocked kitchen with an island, kicking back in the screened-in porch, or firing up the grill on the lakeside deck. 

Step outside, and the fun really begins! The private dock is ready for your boat or jet skis, while the kayaks, paddleboard, and canoe are perfect for exploring the lake. Prefer to stay on land? Challenge your crew to a game of cornhole, take a nap in a hammock, or drop a line in the water for some fishing. When the day winds down, rinse off in the outdoor shower with hot water, then gather around the fire pit for s’mores and lakeside stories.

And if the weather doesn’t cooperate—or you just need a break from the sun—where an arcade and smart TV with easy hdmi hookups for game systems are waiting to keep the fun going. Whether you’re here to relax, explore, or just enjoy the simple pleasures of lake life, there’s only one question left… Water You Waiting For? Book your stay and start making unforgettable memories today!

A few more tid-bits...  :)
Septic System:  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.
Navigating the Lake: 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 boat.(make sure to bring your bumpers!). Be sure to lower your bimini top when going under bridges or through culverts.  Appearances can be deceiving!
Security Camera Disclosure:  We take your privacy very seriously.  However, this home is monitored by exterior security cameras.  The cameras do not record sound.
