We had hoped for a fun weekend at Lake Gaston, that is exactly what we got. The house was clean, the beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. We typically don't cook much on getaways like this one, but we enjoyed doing so this trip. There is a 2nd refrigerator that was great for beverages. It was a short and easy walk to the dock. The dock was big enough for sunbathing and fishing. The cove we were located on did have a good amount of boat traffic and our neighbors were friendly. We also enjoyed sitting out on the deck at night. The temperatures were too hot to enjoy the fire pit, so we just spent more time in the lake. I reached out to the property managers with a couple questions and they immediately responded helping to make our stay even more enjoyable. There are is a Food Lion, dollar store and several restaurants within a 15 minute drive of the house.
