This home and the location are beautiful, spring brings out all the flowers and birds sing out happy in the morning. We feel blessed!

Great place to stay!

Awesome! From the minute that I arrived I felt part of the family. Super clean house, spacious room and bathroom all to myself. Absolutely loved it.

Great place, calm and quiet, clean and loving family...I enjoyed the company. Fantastic stay and H.O gave his bike for me to go to trail.....

Lovely setting and amenities.

This is the perfect place for a relaxing vacation on Lake Gaston, with family or friends. The setback location on a cove makes this place almost magical. Cindy is super responsive to requests. This is a home that is truly loved by its owners and we feel super lucky to have been able to stay in this idillic spot. Thank you Chris and Cindy for a magical weekend in your beautiful home.

Our stay was perfect and relaxing. Check in was a breeze. A small snack was ready for us and the kids ate while we settled in. They had everything ready for us at hand, even a stack of paper for starting a fire for smores. Our family swam in the lake and fished in the evenings. We only had to leave for bait and ice cream = ). We hope to stay here again.

This house is beautiful. It feels like a special place that was lovingly created by our hosts rather than just a house. My wife and I enjoyed just a short two day vacation here but it was perhaps the most relaxing and peaceful time we have had in quite some time. We especially enjoyed the quiet evenings down at the boat house (we made dinner and ate down there one evening). We got home this morning but would already like to go back.

Chris and Cindy's place is a perfect oasis/retreat. It's immaculate, quiet and has some stunning grounds to enjoy...including a dock on the water and an adorable boat house. They were quick to answer all of our inquiries and getting in and out of the house for check in was a breeze. The furniture is all so comfortable and the open concept dining/living area makes it a perfect place for large groups. I could hang out here for a long time...but work calls. Thanks again, Chris and Cindy!

Royal Retreat was absolutely gorgeous and provided the perfect setting for a relaxing weekend on the lake. The dock location is set off from the traffic of all the passing boats which makes it ideal from a privacy and safety perspective. The dock has a covered section which makes it great to enjoy even when the weather is not cooperating. The host stocked the house with so many extra amenities. (Toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, soap, dish soap, extra TP & papertowels, coffee, filters, coffee cake, and the list goes on....) The cheese and crackers were so appreciated. The large master is on the first floor and is absolutely comfortable and spacious. The room with the single bunk beds is a cozy space and a blast for a couple of children but is a little tight for two adults. Overall loved this home and all of the various outdoor spaces.

Incredible, beautiful, upscale & perfectly managed home! Well situated with easy access to the local Food Lion, local gym, and restaurants. Home is open and well equipped with luxury furniture and decor. Beautiful wide cement driveway that expands into a huge parking area near the house! Owners provided everything you need, including a stunning boat dock. Sarah the host did an excellent job ensuring we were immediately welcomed and knew she was minutes away if we needed anything. We loved it! Thank you Cindy & Chris!

This place was awesome. Perfect To enjoy peac and quiet on the lake or go out on the boat and go tubing!!!

Great place to hang out at the lake and relax. The boat house and private cove was awesome and we spent as much time as we could on the water. The screened porch at the house is a great place to sit and just have some good "visiting" time with family and friends. Would recommend to anyone looking for a place that is quiet yet lets you get out and enjoy the water!

Overall it was a great experience. All of us had a blast! The pictures didn't do justice! It was a beautiful place and such a clean house! It was so open and very spacious! The walk to the lake wasn't bad- and down at the little beach area it was so quiet and we felt like we had the place to ourselves! One thing- I'd add some kitchen supplies- like bowls and serving utensils and some coffee mugs! We talked about coming back next summer- such a great place! Thanks for opening up your house to us and we'd recommend it to anyone! Our girls weekend was a blast and we made such wonderful memories and laughed more than we had laughed in a while! It was a great place to get away for a weekend and it was not too far from us in Richmond Va!! :) Thanks again!

Our family enjoyed a marvelous week at Mary and Frank's place. Great view, spacious shoreline, and a top-notch open kitchen and living room area make this place great for family gatherings.

Super clean house with everything you need in a great spot on the lake

everything was perfect!

When our teenage boys say that this was the best family vacation we've had, we know we made the right choice by staying at Mary and Franks lake home. Everything was exactly how we pictured and expected ... very relaxing, comfortable and clean. We are looking forward to returning next summer, if not sooner!

Mary and Frank's home could not have been nicer. Beautiful view. Great beds and sheets. Super comfortable living space. And kitchen stocked with everything needed to make nice meals for the whole family. Bonus, we found out it has one of only a handful of sandy beaches on the lake... and it was all ours!

Home was large, clean and bright and had more than enough room for all of us (6 adults and 2 children). The owner were extremely responsive to a small issue with the washing machine, we could not have asked for a quicker resolution. While there was not a beach area the dock does have a ladder for access into deep water.

Excellent place, there were 6 of us and it was more room than we needed. Clean, updated, better than the photos :)

House was great and everything was as detailed in the listing.

We loved every minute of our stay! We celebrated our niece and nephew's graduations with grandma, siblings, spouses, nieces and nephews (ages 16 months-18 years). The house was perfect for every age group. The little ones loved the toy area, "swimming" in the lake, playing on the beach and swings. The teenagers loved the air hockey, ping pong and pool tables as well as lake activities. The house is made for entertaining and the kitchen was nicely laid out and equipped with everything we needed for a BBQ. The rooms were comfortable and we all really enjoyed our stay. Daniel recommended several local attractions. We particularly enjoyed our trip to the winery, "gourmet" hot dogs in Ebony, VA and a bakery hidden in the back of a gas station. We also rented a boat from a nearby marina and cruised Lake Gaston. Daniel, thanks for facilitating a fun family weekend and helping us make memories that will last a life time.

This house was perfect for a New Years weekend with friends! We had one three-year-old who was in heaven with all of the toys in the downstairs playroom (along with six 30 year old men who had a ping pong tournament that lasted a whole day). The rooms are a good size and the whole place was clean and easy to use. Daniel was a great host- he was easy to get in touch with before and during our stay and even sent restaurant recommendations and information about nearby grocery stores, etc. Altogether this was a wonderful Airbnb experience!

We had a great time at the lake house, the place was the right size for our group of 9. Our son loved the game room downstairs. The view from the deck is pretty nice. All in all its a great place for our family vacation.

Highly recommend this home to anyone who is hoping to get away and relax and enjoy the beauty of family! Lots to do...badminton, corn hole game, small boat to row around, raft to laugh and enjoy, bbq, smores making fire pit outside. Any questions we had the owner responded very quickly! We would go back here and vacation in this home again! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Awesome week at LKG and love the Shanty! Great location in protected cove with main lake view. Less than 5 mins to the main grocery store. Close to Eatons Ferry marina and restaurants. Newly renovated house with great layout. We'll definitely be back. Thanks Amber and Jon!

The house and setup were fantastic. We enjoyed our stay and give the entire experience 5 stars.

Loved it!!!!! So spacious and incredible views. Easy check-in and great communication. Would surely stay here again!

Wow, what an incredible week on the Lake. The home, the location, and everything about the waterfront was absolutely perfect. The pictures online did not come close to doing it justice, so I would like to thank Jonathan and Amber again for allowing us to stay in such incredible property. My wife and I are already talking about pre-booking this home again for next year if they would let us, and I would a recommend this home to anyone that is looking to have a memorable vacation on the lake. The proximity to the grocery store, the marinas, and shopping is the best that we've had over 10 years of vacationing down here at the lake. It's really wonderful, and created a truly memorable experience for my family. Jonathan and Amber could not of been more responsive, and accommodating for us and our family. Please don't miss out on booking this fantastic vacation home.

Shep's Shanty is a delightful lake house. It's very nicely decorated throughout yet is comfortable and cozy. The kitchen is well stocked. we cooked all but one meal at the house during our stay. We personally missed having a toaster and a tea pot though. The lake views are fantastic and there are nice little areas where you can relax and take it all in, such as the hammock, the bistro seating on the adorable top floor balcony and the super comfy porch furniture on the main floor, the swing on the lower floor deck to name a few. Dining outdoors was a must for our family (thankfully the weather cooperated). The outdoor dining table had seating for 6 and was accommodating and quite comfortable. Being able to have music outside was cool. The Sonos system is a nice touch. We enjoyed the fire pit nightly. The towels and sheets provided were comfy and of good quality (there were no postage stamp sized bath towels or threadbare bath towels/sheets) at Shep's Shanty (Thank goodness!) Suggestion: a dedicated path with stone steps/slabs directly to the dock would be nice. The pine straw was a bit slippery to traverse with shoes on but hard on bare feet (ouch). Not a deal breaker ... just a suggestion.

Shep's was absolutely lovely. The location is beautiful, the house is modern and very comfortable, and Jonathan and Amber are clear, courteous, and easy to communicate with. We had everything we needed, and we would definitely stay again!

The pictures don't do this house justice! The home is spacious and is a very good location on the lake. Loved the small little beach access and large yard with fire pit..this is where we spent all our time when not in the lake! The boat ramp is close by and easy to get to and the dock area is plenty deep enough. All of the rooms are decorated cute and have plenty of space.. we had 10 of us and it was nice to have a lot of areas to get some quiet time. The house is very convenient to the grocery store and a couple places to eat. Communication with the owners was fantastic and any questions we had were answered quickly. I highly recommend this property for a family week or weekend at the lake! Top notch

Amber and Jonathan, Thanks for being such wonderful hosts. We had such a fantastic getaway and are looking forward to returning. The place is fabulous and our kids had the time of their lives. What a great place to get away to relax boating, kayaking, and paddle boarding. The views are spectacular and the private beach and cove are perfect for playing in the water without having to worry about large boats zooming by. We created some family memories that will last a lifetime. Thanks again for everything.

This place is perfect if you're taking a long drive down I-95 and need a play to stay overnight to rest. Loved it!

Carlissa is a great host and we really enjoyed our time at Glen's place!

This was a great spot . Not fancy but very spacious and comfortable. The host family were very helpful and made us feel very welcome . We will stay there again. Check out the Bank restraurant easy walk and very good food.

Carlissa was a great host. I stayed at this location for 4 weeks and she would come in once a week to change sheets and tidy up. They also had a drawer of toiletries in case you forgot something. My only complaints would be that it's an older building so there was a little bit of a musty smell. Also the water tastes a little funny but she left plenty of bottled water in the fridge for me.
