We had our annual Lake Gaston family vacation and this was our first time at American Crow. We always look for a sloping yard vs stairs to the water. The walkway was perfect and easy for all ages to walk down. There are many seating areas inside and outside so it is easy to spread out and relax. My sister in law and I enjoyed the outdoor fireplace every night after the kids went to bed. The dock is perfectly shady and sunny so you can choose what you prefer. The game room was a hit and kept the big kids entertained. The kitchen was spacious enough that we could have multiple people moving around and not bumping each other. The kids loved the bunk room. The other bedrooms were close together so I was worried at first about noise but that was a non issue. It was very quiet in every room! The bathrooms are nicely updated. The beds are the most comfortable we have ever had in a rental. The kids caught fish after fish every day. They also used all of the water toys each day. This was the first year that they didn’t get bored towards the end of vacation. So much to do here! We had a couple of minor issues that the owners responded to immediately. Nothing that inconvenienced us. I can’t say enough. It was perfect. We are booking again for our vacation next year. Thank you Crow family!

We've rented at LKG for 15 years as boat owners who vacation with friends so I'll review based on that. Pros: best stocked kitchen (and labeled!) that I've ever seen. Most comfortable beds we've ever stayed in. Fun bunk room for the kids. Great game room. Great water depth at the dock where you can swim not far away and not touch the bottom. Kids could safely swim around without risk of wakes and our boat was safe tied up to the side of the dock. Owners share kayak, canoe, paddle boards and life jackets. Nicely stocked house with basics like laundry soap, paper towels, etc. Nice owners. Cons: 1st-The bathroom situation was really hard for our group of 11. There is a hall bathroom and then a second bathroom attached to the master so if the people in the master are resting or go to bed, no one can use that bathroom which limits 9+ people to using 1 bathroom for showers and toilets. This was a big challenge especially at night. 2nd- you can't see the dock from the house. This makes keeping an eye on the dock from the house impossible. Not a deal breaker but the owners could clear some bushes to help people at the house know what's going on better.3rd- the house could use more seating in the den for everyone hanging out. 4th, there is a STRONG smell that comes from the fire place. If you are sensitive to smoke smell, this might be an issue for you. Lastly, the outside of the house could use some help. It looks rough from the front and back. Hope this helps!

10/10!!! Our crew had an amazing week staying at American Crow. The house is much bigger than pictures appear. We had a family of 10 vacation with ages ranging from 1-75 and everyone had plenty of space to hang out and have fun. We had family game nights after cooking every night in the fully stocked kitchen. The one night we didn’t cook, pizza from Casa Mia’s in Littleton was amazing. The town of Littleton is charming and they do a small concert Thursday nights I believe. The kids had fun fishing, kayaking and jet skiing. The neighbors very were nice and tolerated our noisiness during water gun fights. Absolutely love how quiet the cove is and NO BUGS!! Wish the golf course next door was open to the public but the boys still had fun at whatever nearest course there was. Hosts are very nice and quick to respond. House is super clean and very cute! Pro tip: The bunk room with the twin beds was the favorite bedroom since it had its own AC. Will be back next year!!!

Our family fell in love with this property right away! I had trouble booking, but the owners were available & totally tolerant. The home is tucked into a golf cart community, but the privacy in amazing. The property has a useful backyard with an inviting view of the lake. The layout was well planned with enough spaces for all parties to gather together or to have some private time. Our family gathered each evening in the lower level for games, pool, poker, and shuffle board. Oh what fun we had!!! The living area was beautiful, inviting, open, and clean!!! Here, too, there was enough room for everyone to gather. The kitchen was beautiful and well stocked. Our crew cooked most meals and enjoyed the appliances & outdoor grill. A backup propane tank was available when we needed. We were able to refill the tank on our next grocery run. The bedrooms were amazing with soft, relaxing decor. The beds were comfy, and the temperature in the home was easily maintained during our nearly 100 degree days. Even the bathrooms were clean & nicely decorated. The water temperature for bathing tolerated our entire crew. It was way too hot to utilize the enclosed porch during our stay, but we talked about how nice that space could be during the autumn. The deck/dock welcomed us with a small refrigerator, kayak, and SUP, life vests with many size options, and even some floats!! We brought our jet skis and golf cart, so we enjoyed just every second of vacation! Book it!

The property was clean and well appointed. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. The open concept living was wonderful for our group hanging out together, cooking and chatting. Although we were a small group, the bunk rooms provided many sleeping options. The backyard and the dock were great secondary spaces for fishing and paddle boarding. We thoroughly enjoyed the game room too - had some epic pool games and shuffleboard!

We loved the lake house, it was fully stocked, beautifully decorated, comfortable and fun! It included a canoe, kayak & SUPs, a pool table & shuffle board plus an outdoor fireplace & pizza oven. Our family had an awesome time and plan on coming back next year. The host were very accommodating and responded immediately with any questions. The views from the house were beautiful too!

We had an absolutely wonderful time. The inside of the house was pretty and inviting. We cooked about all our meals. The kitchen layout had the stove facing the outdoors and the lake view was so peaceful. Made cooking and cleaning up enjoyable. We all had had a very busy and stressful couple of weeks prior to our arriving. The layout of the home and the views from the house as well as the back yard and access to the boat dock was perfect for us. We all felt relaxed and rested by the end of the week. Prior to our checking in and during the week we had a couple of questions. The owners response time and information was exceptional. We all agreed we will rent this home again!

VERY clean and well decorated home - you wouldn't know it's a rental property once you step in the door!! Game room downstairs (pool table, shuffleboard, card table, huge TV, etc.) was great for a couple of days that the weather didn't cooperate. Only recommendation - and a small one at that - would be to add a bathroom downstairs (which may well be underway as one of the rooms was locked with an "under construction" sign on the door). Overall, great communication from the owners and I would highly recommend. Thank you!!
