Fabulous Vacation!

There were 16 family members and this house was perfect! Lots of room to enjoy ping pong, air hockey and of course, floating in the lake visiting with everyone! Location was wonderful…easy to get to the main lake. The owner might just be my new best friend…she was so sweet and outgoing! Appreciate the responsiveness of Lupita in answering questions and getting the house ready! We have been doing these family vacations for over 20 years and this was the best ever! Thank you!

Great Getaway!

Myself, family and friends had an amazing time making memories at Tropical Paradise. The house was perfect for our group of all ages from the little ones to teens and adults. The owner was amazing and the best communication I’ve had thus far!

Lake perfection

This home has everything! My brother and I take our families every other year to the beach or lake. This home was perfect for all the different ages and so comfortable. Large kitchen and living areas, great for a large group. I would highly recommend this rental. The hostess is always available to answer questions if needed. The amount of amenities was incredible.

Spacious and great location

This is a huge house with ample space for a large family with a lot of children. Amazing location, dock and yard located on a great small cove just off the main lot. Owner was very accommodating and quick to try to resolve issues that we had. Was a great space for our family.

A relaxing place to work together

We gathered for the annual retreat for our arts organization to celebrate a successful 2022 and begin planning our activities in 2023. This location was very spacious and relaxing. It met all of our needs for gathering and discussion during the day and recreation in the evening. Big thanks to the wonderful host!

Memorable week

Despite Hurricane Debbie trying to put a damper on our stay, our group still managed to have a great time at our annual Lake Gaston trip. The house in itself was in a great location and had easy access to the stores nearby. Other than a few less than comfortable beds and lack of storage/pantry for a week long stay, the house had all the amenities and room to accommodate our large group. It never felt like we were on top of one another. Sonya and Lupita were very communicative throughout the whole process and that was most appreciated.

First time at Lake

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. I would suggest that there be some instructions for the pontoon boat. It was not the typical put in key and go. Once that issue was resolved we enjoyed our outing on the lake Bees were a problem suggest you bring spray

Great for big group of “kids”

Great house for families. Enough space and separation for both the kids and adults. The top floor was perfect for all children to sleep and play. The basement was great for the adults, the poker room was bigger than shown in the pictures. Main floor had the big kitchen, which was big enough for several people to work it at the same time and was fully stocked. We were lucky with the weather in December, so also got full use the fire pit, the dock and the kayaks. Owner was very responsive, answering our questions right away.

Large family reunion.

This spacious house was perfect for our large family to stay for a few nights. The house has enough beds and fully equipped kitchen for everyone. The view of the lake is beautiful and there are tons of activities to do depending on the season. We enjoyed the hot tub and taking a walk around the area. The huge kids room and game room was a big hit amongst the kids. The owners are very responsive and easy to communicate with. The house could be better organized and way less cluttered. Other than that, we had a great time and would recommend for large groups.

Best location on the lake

This house was perfect for our extended family of 23 people. (17 adults and 6 kids). Communication with the owner, Sondra, was easy and prompt. The amenities offered at Tropical Paradise made packing for this annual trip, a lot easier than in past years. Here are things we didn't have to pack by staying here. Bath towels, bed sheets, paddle boards, kayaks, extra cookware, outdoor lawn chairs. Sondra really wants to make your experience a dream, and does a great job providing everything you need. She gave us the tools, and we made it happen. In the 13 years we have been making this trip, this house had, by far, the most to offer. Thank you Sondra.

Amazing vacation home!

This is a very special home that accommodated our group of 14 adults + 14 children really well. Some of the house highlights include: super-cool kid room, 3 separate and spacious indoor living rooms, many indoor games (Foosball, air hockey, ping pong and poker table), Netflix, firepit, plenty of open space, awesome sun deck above the boat dock, plenty of kitchen ware (plates, utensils, bowls, mugs, pots, pans, casseroles, serving ware, small appliances, etc), cleaning supplies (broom, dish soap, sponges, etc) ... the house had everything we needed to have a great time! Sarah, the property manager, was very responsive, thoughtful and kind. It was great working with her. I highly recommend coming here with a big group! Make sure you book enough days ... you (and especially the kids) are not going to want to leave!!

Avoid like the Plaque.....or the worms on the bottom floor

Property ID 1163051, Titled” 7500 sq ft, 20+Beds Kayaks/Paddle boards for rent on location- Pets Welcome!” First off, my family and I are accustomed to taking week-long vacations and have done so for over 20 years; I have left reviews for almost every place. I have never had to write a review such as this – so much to say. Grab a beer, this will be a long one. I want the reader (you) to understand my frustrations with this place so that you are better prepared for the experiences you will encounter when you rent it. Secondly, I should tell you that we are your typical middle-class family, comprised of approx. 18 people. None of us are the fancy, “I’m better than you” type, nor can we afford to be. We all save our money each year to experience one week-long get away per year. This property was our destination this year – I’m sad that our memories are already tarnished by the filth discovered within this property. Here is my listing of issues encountered: Bottom floor: 1. Bottom floor was completely covered in these small caterpillar-like creatures. We picked up a few the first day and by the end of the trip, there was literally 100’s of them. Each bedroom and bathroom and kitchenette had them crawling all over. Main Floor: 1. Main floor kitchen, one bottom drawer is broken and doesn’t slide in – deff don’t pull it out. 2. Main Floor kitchen Ice maker in the door doesn’t work and never produced a single cube while we were there. 3. False Eyelashes were left on the counter in the main floor’s bathroom by previous guests (health hazard.) 4. Under cabinet lights in main kitchen area are wired unprofessionally, drape down and lack any means to turn them on or off. 5. Sunroom doorknob doesn’t latch. You must use the deadbolt to keep the door closed. 6. The sunroom AC never worked while we were there and was turned into a storage room as it was unusable for normal 7. Grill on main floor was very dirty and debris in bottom of grill caught on fire and had to be extinguished. We had to clean the grill before we could use it. 8. Main floor kitchen was absolutely disgusting upon arrival and required us to clean several dishes upon arrival. Counters and glass table had obviously been gone over with a dirty sponge or washcloth. Hand and fingerprints all over the table made it hard to believe it had been cleaned at all. 9. Multiple stools on the main floor have either loose or missing bolts and are very wobbly. Several stools were placed in t

Our Family Week at Lake Gaston

This house on Lake Gaston has a great location - in a small cove, which was calm for swimming and paddle boarding, but also with a terrific view of the big lake water, too. With three stories, plenty of bedrooms and three kitchens, the house worked well for our family group of grandparents, children, grandchildren and great grand-children. The house is also well located for our family, as some drove in from upstate NY, others from Georgia and several flew into Raleigh. Our week together in July was excellent and we did enjoy the opportunity to get together after many long months of COVID precautions. The house is well equipped for feeding a large group, with two new grills, three refrigerators, and plenty of kitchen tools and equipment. Every game table was used - frequently. About the only thing we did not do was toast marshmallows by the campfire. The owner responded quickly to questions. She also advised us not to over pack, as the everything we might need is available at the house. We found that was true. It was a great week at the lake!
