We found this property quickly when our other home fell through. It was a blessing indeed! The home was very clean and well represented on VRBO. The owner answered questions honestly and was responsive. We didn’t need to contact her for anything during our stay, everything went smoothly.

We had an enjoyable stay at this property. It fit our family perfect and only had one issue with the AC the first day. It was very hot that week and the upstairs was not cooling down. The host was very responsive and had someone there the next morning. Location was close to stores and we discovered a wonderful coffee shop. The dock area was great for floating and hanging out. The stairs are a bit steep and need to be careful. Thank you for a great week.

Amazing view from the back deck. Boathouse is the best!

What can we say? This is our 3rd or 4th time staying at Linger Longer and we love it. We hate writing reviews to bring more people, but we also know how important they are in choosing your property, so… Absolutely a 5-star property with great owners and overall amazing experience. You will love the sunsets from the screened porch, living room, kitchen, deck, EVERYWHERE - completely stunning. This location on the lake is great too. It is through a very narrow and low bridge and so you don't get any boat traffic unless people are from that part of the lake. The private island and 3 fingers around this private part of the lake are great for boating and water sports. The property has 2 kayaks which are perfect on this quiet area. It would be nice if they would add a few SUP boards (hint-hint) but if they don't you can rent them literally around the corner. The dock has plenty of chairs and floats and the recently added dock bar adds a nice flair. Bring a portable speaker for the dock, as the dock sound system is for the owners only from what we can tell. The walk-out finished lower level is a great place for the kids and adults to hang and play ping pong and foosball. There are also two bedrooms down there. The master BR and jacuzzi are great. Very quiet neighborhood with quiet neighbors and the properties nearby don't seem like rentals, so you feel very secluded and private. The screened in porch is amazing for morning coffee! This is a must-stay property (just not when we are)

the place was great

Wow, what a great week we had. Lake Gaston is unbelievably beautiful. This property is almost like being on your own private lake next to the lake. Our kids tubed, swam, skied and had a fantastic time. Almost 18ft deep lake at the dock was great to swim and fish. Thank you! We will be back to Lake Gaston for sure.

Beautifully updated home with gorgeous views. We loved the screened-in porch, the downstairs game room and perfect views. Thank you, Lori, for letting our group stay there. We would love to come back next year!

The owners were great in answering all my questions when I booked and the weeks leading up to our trip. When we got to the house light switches were very clearly marked which was a big help as it is a large house. It is very private and extremely quiet. It was a little off the main road but I only made one bad turn. The kitchen was great and had everything we could ever want. I hope you have a tall person with you as some of the shelves are a little high. The refrigerator was super and the dishwasher extremely quiet. The bedrooms and baths were convenient and clean. Loved the screen porch which was fantastic for late night “girl” chats. The boathouse was very nice and had a lovely bar area. We were lucky the water was so warm and all the teens enjoyed swimming. All in all it was a perfect place for a perfect family birthday celebration. In fact we had four. I wish to thank the Higgins for letting us enjoy their wonderful lake house.
