About this house rental
PLEASE NOTE: During the peak season (June, July, and August), we only rent for full weeks - Saturday to Saturday.
The name of our house is "Dream Come True," and it has truly been a dream. Our home can make your dreams come true too! Bring your family and friends for a relaxing vacation on Lake Gaston. Our home is located in the popular Pea Hill Creek area. We have all the comforts of home and a wonderful lake in the backyard. The gently sloping yard takes you to the water's edge and our boathouse. There is a vacant slip in the boathouse to tie up your boat. The boat lift in the boat slip is raised to the ceiling so you can get your boat into the boat slip. We will rent the boat lift ($150) if you want to use it. We also have a small floating ramp that is a safe place to dock your jet skis. When it is not used for jet skis, turtles and ducks sun themselves on it, and watching them is fun. Additionally, there is a boat ramp/launch at the end of our road for the neighborhood (you and your guests) to use. The water is about eight feet deep at the end of our dock, and it gently slopes back to a few inches of water at the shoreline.
The size of the house is 2500 square feet, and it has five bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and two kitchens with full-size appliances. In addition, we have high-speed wireless internet available throughout the house for those of you who may have to work remotely.

The house was beautiful and extremely clean. The homeowners thought of everything-down to phone chargers and ice machines! The kitchen was very well stocked - we had everything we needed. I absolutely loved that things were labeled and I loved the welcome book that told us everything we needed to know. Wonderful experience!

We had a great week staying on the lake. I really like that the upstairs and downstairs are basically setup like two separate houses since there were 10 of us that stayed. The cove is nice and peaceful and the house was very clean and well equipped. We had a great time fishing, tubing and swimming. The homeowner was awesome, She was helpful and very responsive. Would definitely go back.

This was a perfect lake vacation with family and friends. The home is very well equipt (we'd be saying it would be nice to have....and we'd turn around or open a drawer and it was there. The house was very clean and the boat house was fantastic. The tie-up system that they have for your boat is simply fabulous. We look forward to our next trip to Lake Gaston and we hope to be able to stay at Dream Come True again.

My family and I had the most relaxing and fun vacation at this home. There was plenty of room for everyone (and we could have brought more!). I love when there are fans and tv's in every room and this house did not dissappoint. Besides ceiling fans there were individual fans around the house. This home is WELL equiped with every thing you should need for a wonderful stay! The hosts are fantsatic as well. We had no problems but if we had a question they responded within minutes. I even read a book!!!! Now that is relaxtion!

From the booking process to the last sad day we had to leave, this was perfect house for our family. I have never stayed in a more well appointed home. The kitchen had at least one of anything you could need. Just an easy, relaxing, home with beautiful views all day!

House is in a lovely neighborhood and sits on a quiet cove with just enough boat activity at the marina across the cove for gawking. Definitely love this lake. House was as presented, on a nice level lot and owners were great to work with.

The house was clean, well stocked and was perfect for our family vacation. We enjoyed the easy, level walk to the dock. And the lower living level was perfect for our teenagers. Would definitely love to visit again! Thank you for sharing your home!

We had a good time in general,
Place wasn't super clean, we had to rewash the dishes that where in the cabinets to use, Lots of dishes had food and particles on it , found something nasty in the top drawer of front bedroom by the front door, that I won’t mention,
The out door kayak and Canoe we’re pretty old , it was missing handles and Was difficult to put them in and out of water.
Overall was ok,

We had a fantastic time,the layout of the house was perfect for our family which consisted of my husband and I, our single grown son, my married son, his wife and 2 babies who had their own separate living space downstairs... it rained for half the time we were there but that was still fine as we fished off the dock,cooked wonderful meals and enjoyed each other's company. My son also brought his boat and jet ski which we enjoyed on the 2 beautiful days.
The house was so well stocked with every type of cookware, etc but we did bring our own food and linens. We will definitely be returning!!

The experience was very good. Five friends from college gathered and enjoyed a great time together. The house has everything we needed to enjoy the experience.
Thanks Jean.

This was a wonderful experience for our family on this beautiful location on lake Gaston.We were able to swim off the dock and kayak in this protective cove. Beautiful sloping large backyard was great for kids to run around and play lawn games.We rented a pontoon boat and cheapest gas on lake is very close to house. We are definitely planning to come back next summer.Paul k
