About this house rental
Welcome to Hideaway Haven - tucked away in the peaceful semi-private nook of Lake Gaston. This home boasts open water views, glass-like water, and everything lake-living has to offer. You will seriously love this secluded part of Lake Gaston, as there is minimal boat traffic - making it much safer for swimming, easier to paddleboard, and more tranquil overall. The cove is basically your own mini-lake, big enough to zip around on a jet ski, or even wakeboard. We don't think there's a better spot on the entire lake! If you love the main lake, no worries - it's a short boat ride. Also nearby are some excellent restaurants on the water, by boat (ask us about our pontoon and jet ski rentals).
As you enter the front door, you are greeted with bright two-story windows displaying the lake, and an open floorplan large enough for multiple families or groups to gather and enjoy!
A wrap-around sundeck surrounds the main floor living space. Enjoy your morning coffee off the Kitchen with elevated views of the boathouse, and gaze across untouched water to a private island. Maybe even greet the blue herons that walk on the shore. These panoramic views allow for glimpses of sunrise and sunset. For lunch/dinner, help yourself to the gas grill, as everyone gathers for indoor-outdoor dining.
In the evening, wind down on the porch or covered patio, or down around the fire pit roasting marshmallows.
Nonstop fun all day in this deep-water cove. Take a morning cruise on a provided tandem kayak or paddleboat; Swim or float off the 2-level boathouse, and even try jumping off the sundeck into 7ft deep water (no diving please). Access to the water is down a tiered boardwalk (2 or 3 steps down at a time to multiple landings) that winds down the gentle grade.
We installed a brand new water filtration system to help with water quality.

More details of the interior:
Walking into the main floor you have an open living area with a gas fireplace, ceiling fan, and large flat-screen tv that leads to an open stairway with two-story views of the lake. Off to the left, we have a newly added full bathroom. Next down the hall is our spacious King Deluxe suite that leads into a newly renovated full bath with a freestanding soaking tub. Back to the main living space is the kitchen area with a large eating island for 6, and dining table that seats 8. This leads out to the oversized wrap-around lakeside porch with killer views. There are multiple sliding doors off the kitchen and main living spaces. You will also have full access to our washer and dryer located on the main floor.
Heading upstairs you come to a double bunk-bed-set and trundle-bed Bedroom - 2 full beds and 4 twin beds all in one room. You may also turn the trundle (2 twins) into a king-size bed.

This lower living area is where you'll find the covered patio to enjoy the evening views or play cornhole. There are two bedrooms on the lower level. One is a private room with a plush Queen bed. The second bedroom is loaded with custom built-in bunk beds (3 twins), a full bed, and a futon that sleeps 2. There is one full bathroom on this lower level, with a tub/shower combo.

We had the best time on our girls trip! The house was spacious and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The dock was perfect for hanging out by the water, and the location on the lake was just right—peaceful but still convenient. The master bedroom deserves a special shoutout…the mattress was honestly the most comfortable any of us have ever slept on! The neighbors were also very friendly, which made the trip even nicer. Overall, a wonderful place to stay, and we’d definitely come back!
6 / 10Average·Oct 2021
The house looks exactly like the pictures. There were few issues.. the first was the check in since the box died we had to find the spare keys to enter the property. The listing said no dogs but there were dog 's hair everywhere, later found out the owner came the week prior with his dog.
The hot tub wasn't working 😫 which would have been nice to have taken off the listing since it was one of the main reason we wanted to get the house.
The owner was nice enough to call and apologized for the few mishaps
