We had an incredible two weeks in this home! It’s perfect for everyone—singles, families, teens, and couples. The fun never stops, with kayaking, swimming, floating, grilling, and game nights. Some even worked remotely in between!
The house is beautifully laid out with stylish décor, featuring a main-floor living room, a game room, a water-view deck, and a patio with rocking chairs. The spacious dock, beach area, and paddle boat are fantastic for making summer memories.
The owner is incredibly responsive, and the friendly neighbors add to the charm. This place is more than just a rental; it’s the perfect summer escape!

We had a wonderful stay at the lake! The house was clean, comfortable and had it all. We would 100% stay there again. Highlights for my kids were fishing, kayaking, and jumping off the dock!

This was our second time staying in this home, and we enjoyed it just as much this time as last. We rented a boat for the week and enjoyed the water. We swam off the end of the dock. My kids caught fish. The kitchen is well appointed, and we did plenty of cooking. We took daily walks on the quiet roads in the vicinity. Any minor question we had was quickly taken care of by Keith. One in our party has mobility issues, and this house works very well for that purpose with a gently sloping yard going down to the dock and multiple bedrooms on the main floor. I am sure we will be back.

This lake house was ideal for our family vacation. The home was spacious, very clean, with a well equipped kitchen, and very comfortable beds. A highlight of the house is the great dock with endless opportunity for fun in the water. The beautiful quiet cove was great for swimming, paddle boarding and kayaking. The close proximity to main lake was perfect for boating and tubing. Our whole family agreed this Lake Gaston house was ideal!

This is our 2nd year staying here. Great weather and great lake house. Ages from 6-88 enjoyed the accommodations. Keith always gets in touch with us to make sure that check-in went smoothly and is available as needed. We hope to rent again next year
If you looking to rent a great place on a quiet cove-this is it. Thanks again for sharing your home with us.

This was the first time renting this VRBO and it was great. Located on a cove just off the main lake was great and there was room to tie up our two boats. Also, plenty of water for swimming off the boathouse. The house was roomy, nicely decorated, and the kitchen was hands down the best equipped of any place I have rented. Plenty of dishware, silverware, and a wide assortment of appliances. Also, the plethora of board games and quality pool table were a pleasant surprise. Definitely on the list to rent again.

What a great place. House has everything you need. Plenty of room for everyone to spread out and relax. The dock is great for swimming and fishing. Being on an inlet keeps it calm and quiet. The owner is quick to respond to any questions you may have.

Great property with room for everyone. Unfortunately rain kept us indoors most of our week but five adults, a teen, and two children had plenty of room to spread out. The house could easily accommodate many more.
When the weather allowed we spent a lot of time on the dock fishing, swimming and kayaking. The cove is very quiet with minimal boat/jet ski traffic. The kayaks provided are functional but have seen better days - missing seats, leaking hulls, broken clips, etc.
The kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, baking sheets, dishes, cups, and silverware. A second refrigerator on the lower level is great for beverages or when refrigerator in kitchen becomes crowded.
Overall we were very happy with our stay, the owner and his communication. Would recommend the property.

We are four men who are in our 50-60’s range and lifelong friends. We love the serenity of this lake plus the immaculate condition of this home. We enjoy to fish, kayak, play pool, and hang out together, so this is our perfect place for our annual bro-treat. The house is airy and bright with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The owner, Keith, is awesome and easy to work with concerning the home and your needs. We will be back next year for our 4th bro-treat!

We were a party of 9 each with a bed and privacy. Most of our time spent boating, fishing, tubing, and jet skiing. Dinner at home followed by game night was were our best memories were made. The Host, Keith, was always available and his pride in his home is shown in every room.

This is a wonderful place to stay. Our group ages ranged from 3-87 years old and everyone had plenty of space. Great location in a quiet cove off main lake. Owner Keith was quick to respond to any questions and even got in touch with us to make sure check-in had gone smoothly. Everyone enjoyed the week and are ready to come back again next year. House was well furnished too-can’t say enough positive things about this house. Thanks for sharing your beautiful house with us

Our entire family enjoyed a relaxing vacation at your wonderful house. It was exactly as pictured and described. The kitchen was well stocked and the layout of the house was perfect. There were so many activities and toys for us to use that we never were bored. We visited the winery one afternoon that is minutes from the house which I would highly recommend. We would definitely rent again. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

One of the best homes on Lake Gaston!
A much needed family (& friends) vacation was thoroughly enjoyable at Reel Livin’! Super clean and layout was amazing! Plenty of room & tons of activities for all ages…wonderful cove to tie off floats and rafts, boat house with ladder & sandy beach, fire pit, kayaks, paddle boat, pool table, ping pong, corn hole, or straight relaxing in the comforts of a home away from home! We look forward to making more wonderful memories in years to come! Thank you so much for sharing your home!

Extremely nice! Renting the pontoon boat from the owners made it very easy to enjoy the lake. The cove was a great place to swim and kayak.

Great House and Great Location
Beautiful house that is very well kept up and has just about anything you could ask for. Owner is very responsive. We had a small issue at the beginning of our stay and he was very quick to make things right. Quite cove with great dock for swimming. Our kids aged 5-12 spent all day jumping off the dock and swimming around the cove. Dock has plenty of shade and places to sit. Kayaks and paddle boat were fun for everyone. Kids really loved the ping-pong table. House is close to the water with very few steps which was great for the grandparents. We did about as well fishing from the doc as we did going out in a rental boat, both Bass and Catfish. We even caught a couple of turtles. Kitchen has lots of equipment, utensils and dinner ware. The dining room table was very spacious and allowed all 11 of us to eat together; you could easily accommodate 16. Beds were comfortable and rooms provided plenty of privacy and quiet.
Great place to stay at Lake Gaston!

Wonderful house in a great location
Everything about this house exceeded our expectations. It was extremely clean. We kept saying to each other that it felt great to sit on the furniture because it just felt so clean. I really had that feeling of wondering how they managed to keep a vacation rental property so nice, but when the house is so nice you find yourself being even more careful and aware than usual to take care of everything and follow property rules.
The kitchen was well appointed and the beds were seriously comfortable. I never sleep well on vacation, but the beds were comfortable. The kids beds and bedding on the bunk beds felt comfortable like home. My kids loved it.
We had rain one day and enjoyed the board games, the pool table, and the ping pong table. My kids played corn hole. The location on the lake is great as it is on a no wake cove, so the kids were free to swim. We had a great week.

Excellent vacation home
Beautiful house, clean and well maintained with a great lawn area in front and back. Lake is very accessible by dock or from the back yard. Lots of extras like kayaks, paddleboat, pool table, ping pong table, and cornhole kept us entertained all week. Communication with owner was top notch.

Our family and friends recently stayed at the property for a long weekend to celebrate Father's Day. The location could not have been better! Our host Keith has paid special attention to ensure this house has maximum comfort and amenities. The beds/pillows, sofas/chairs, dining table, etc. were super comfortable and fit our group size well. The house was immaculate with beautiful flooring, walk-in showers and fully stocked kitchen. We made use of many of the bonus appliances including coffee maker, sandwich press and slow cooker - wonderful attention to detail for those who want to cook. Also to note they had coffee (Folgers), sugar packs and a spice rack. There were more than enough activities for everyone to enjoy including billards, cornhole, kayaks, firepit, and board games not to mention many spots to take refuge including the upper deck, rocking chairs on the bottom porch and the wonderful shaded dock. The access to the lake was ideal with a walk-in section which you could launch the kayaks from and deep enough water for swimming on the end of the dock. We did bring our jet ski and there were sufficient tie-up points. Quick note that Holly Grove Marina (less than 5 min drive) is right around the corner for easy boat/jet ski ramp access for a small $5 fee, we found this to be ideal for location to save on gas (Poplar Creek public drop-in was about 15-20 mins water distance). The property was well stocked, but we had a few items we were glad we brought along (should not be provided by host): beach towels, bug spray, blow-up floats, outside speaker, kindling/firewood/lighter/s'mores sticks for firepit, condiments (mayo, ketchup, mustard), napkins. One other quick note, the house location was secluded which means our AT&T cell phones were out of service for location (delayed texting, no calls). The host provided WiFi and there was an IP phone available at the house. This setup was sufficient for our needs and helped encourage everyone to stay off devices.Sincere thank you to Keith for hosting us and we hope to book again next year!
