About this house rental
Please read full description, house rules and cancelation policy before booking.
Conveniently located in Littleton North Carolina, Mariners Retreat is the perfect family getaway on the lake.
Located in the peaceful Spinnaker Pointe community, the home is situated at the end of a shared cove with a beautiful view of the lake. The cove leads to wide open waters near the middle of the lake.
This home features 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms and sleeps 9. The master bedroom features a king-sized bed and an attached bathroom with separate tub and shower. The second bedroom has a twin over full bunk bed. The third bedroom has a queen-sized bed with adjustable firmness. The living room also has a queen-sized pull-out sleeper sofa.
Prepare meals in the fully stocked kitchen or use either the gas grill or PitBoss smoker on the porch. If you prefer to dine out, visit one of the local restaurants located less than a mile away. The kitchen also features a stocked coffee bar to enjoy coffee with a view on the back screened porch or take a cup to go. Tea is also available.
The screened porch would also be perfect for enjoying meals or playing games with the family outdoors.
Bring your boat or water toys and take advantage of the private community boat launch. The community also offers a pavilion and beach area.
After a day on the water, spend your evenings by the firepit making s’mores and sharing stories.
There is one closet inside that stays locked for inventory. The shed outside is locked for owner storage. Aside from that, the home is yours to enjoy. Washer and dryer are available for your use as well. We have one stand-up paddle board available for our guests. Life vests are on our boat. Please return after use.
There are 3 security cameras located on the outside of the home for the safety and security of our guests and our property. One by the front door, one on the side of the home and one at the back of the home.
Linens and towels are provided. Beach towels are also available in the tote on the deck. We provide 1 roll of toilet paper per bathroom and 1 roll of paper towels in the kitchen.
We DO NOT have a hot tub/spa. This is a common glitch on VRBO app and website.
**Our 24-foot pontoon boat is available for rent seasonally (season runs April 1st through October 1st). We offer a great rate for our guests, $250 for the first day and $200 for each additional day. For comparison, the local marina offers 8-hour rentals for over $400.
Must have a valid driver's license and previous boating experience. No towing/skiing/tubing.
**Security deposit will be refunded 14 days after check-out if no damages are found.

The house was wonderful the screened in porch off the living room was the best. It was just big enough for the four of us which I really like.
Only one thing was wrong and that was the fact that the power went out and then the cable didn't come back on for 2 days but that wasn't the owner's fault that was the cable company so we just sat on the porch and read a book.

There are two reasons every review I saw on this property was 10/10 -- the listing of this exceptional lake house was incredibly accurate (perhaps even modest), and thus exceeds expectations AND the owners/managers are INCREDIBLE PEOPLE.
THANK YOU --- we want to return next year -- and I want to stay for a month! (I hope I can convince everyone else but if I can't convince everyone, I may just rent it for myself - the peaceful beauty of location -- and the incredibly friendle people in this area of Lake Gaston. Bravo -- standing ovation!!!!!!!!!

Hostess was great and was easy to a hold of. Check process was seamless. Kitchen was well stocked. Great little lake cabin and the boat rental made for an awesome day on the water. Highly recommend.

Came to relax and catch up with our 21 and 24 year old kiddos. We brought our personal kayaks and rented the pontoon boat as well for some fun in the water. House was clean and well stocked with all you need in the kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms, and even laundry. Loved the screened in porch with a view of the lake for our morning coffee. Host was pleasant and responsive.

Myself and 3 other ladies hadn't seen each other in 10 years. This house was a great location. Convenient to the grocery store. There was everything you would need. Very clean. We all said we would stay there again.

Stayed for a long weekend, was impressed how clean and nicely styled the interior was. They thought of everything you may have forgotten. Great shower pressure and loved sitting in the screened-in porch listening to the night and rain-so relaxing!

Our stay was absolutely great. Very nice home, clean, and owners were very responsive. Will definitely book again!!!
