Such a great location. Right on the lake but feels private since it's on the cove. Very quiet during the week; boat & people activity picked up on the weekend. Love the easy entry to the water and all the access to floats/kayaks/paddleboard. Nice to have grocery & ABC store so close too.

First family lake vacation

This was our first lake vacation and we loved every minute of it! The house was so cute and cozy and came with all the things you could need. The waves to the lake was by far the best part. The walk in beach type area was perfect for our kids and dogs. The boat ramp was literally 4 houses away and the house is located on a culdesac. We look forward to booking this house again.
View from the provided floats.
My kids also really enjoyed the complimentary paddle boards!

Love this place

Kayaking on the lake, dining and grilling on the large covered porch, quiet protected cove, community amenities, and close to food shopping, a bakery (Jenny Cakes on the Lake) and even a few restaurants are just a few reasons why we love this place.

Comfortable and Relaxing Stay

The house was the cleanest I’ve ever seen as a rental and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. Having use of the paddle boards, kayaks and floats was awesome. The owners were very nice and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend this property!

Although I was not using the house for vacation it was perfect for what I needed while I was working close bye. It was clean and had everything I needed. Perfect little getaway for me and my coworker. Have stayed here before and will definitely stay again.

Fun at the lake

We had a wonderful stay. The home is clean and very well stocked with every thing you need, inside and out. Lots of towels, beds clean and made. Kayaks, paddle boards, life jackets also. Being able to bring our furry friends is a wonderful plus! We brought our boat and the launch is very close. This is our second time visiting and hope to get back soon!

Perfect getaway vacation!

We always look forward to staying at this comfortable home located on a quiet cove close to the Food Lion. There's a nice grassy spot with shade or sun by the water's edge where the kayaks can be easily launched. We caught several bream, catfish, and small bass from the kayaks and dock. The view is beautiful! The back porch is nice for meals, reading and relaxing and the home has everything we need. Thank you Pat for another wonderful vacation and for being a great host!

Looking for a relaxing lake vacation, you found it

We stayed at this location for 11 days, and rented a pontoon boat to enjoy the lake. Our 2 dogs joined us and had a blast at the water front beach. The house is older but very clean and well equipped. The location is perfect as you are minutes away from the main lake, and close to waterfront restaurants. We had a beautiful 12 days enjoying the outside location. Communication with the owner(Pat) was fast and great. Thank you for our family to make another set of great memories

Wonderful waterfront home.

The Wildwood point home was wonderful. Right on the water in a quiet cove, with a beautiful dock for our boat. The home was very well equipped. So many nice homey touches. My favorite place was the beautiful back porch. The boat ramp was only two homes down from the house. Being able to bring our fur baby was a big plus. We will be back!

Fishing Trip to Lake Gaston

This is our second stay at this property and we just love it! The house is clean, the bed is comfortable, and the kitchen is well stocked. The grocery store is a short drive and a bakery is just down the street. We brought our dogs and we were allowed to put our boat under cover at the dock which is so convenient. The boat ramp is within walking distance. The fishing is unbelievable and as long as we fish Lake Gaston we will stay at this property. Thank you, Pat, for your hospitality.

Pleasantly Surprised

The only thing lacking at this property is it’s description. It far exceeded our expectations right down to the private boat ramp and pool membership passes. The owner’s have anticipated your every need and couldn’t be more receptive to your inquiries. Our only disappointment was that our stay was too short.

First Gaston trip of the Season

This is our third Summer renting this property, and we plan to keep on showing up as long as it’s available. Everything about this location is just perfect for our family, which includes young grandkids and fury family members. Pat and Rick do a great job making sure everything is in perfect order when you arrive, and they make us feel like we’re extended family coming to visit. Looking forward to our next booking and our chance to create more memories in Littleton. 😊♥️

All you need

My stay was great! The house has a very cozy atmosphere. I basically lived on the back deck. I had morning coffee there with a book, worked there (wifi was fine),and put together a jigsaw puzzle. The wooded property and lake breeze made it a perfect spot to hang. The house itself has everything that you need. I was given the wrong code for the lock box and thought it was going to be the start of a bad situation, but I was able to contact the owner who immediately offered the correct information. If I lived a bit closer to this property I would definitely consider a yearly retreat!

Perfection Again!!!!!

This is my second year staying at Pats place. I can’t say enough about how wonderful Pat is to deal with. I have been coming to the lake for more than 10 years and she is the most gracious host, most accommodating that I have ever dealt with. This is the perfect Lakehouse for me. You have everything you need. The kitchen is well stocked and the living room is comfy and cozy. Can’t wait to come back in the winter and use that woodstove! I absolutely love the deck for meals and just listening to nature! The most beautiful sunrises I have ever seen have been experienced down at the dock overlooking the lake. If you are not a morning person, you have to be a morning person at least once during your stay to experience the beauty of a sunrise over the lake . Neighbors are very friendly as well and you are so close to the Food Lion for groceries! Another fantastic week!!

Nice Getaway

Host (Pat) responded timely when we had questions & seemed genuinely interested in helping us make the most of our vacation. The house is located in a quiet neighborhood and it was clean upon arrival. The linens were fresh & looked fairly new. (We’ve stayed at other homes in past where that was not the case). It was nice not having to pack bedding & towels nor wash linens when we left. The house is small with only one full bath (downstairs) but it worked fine for us this trip. Seniors & those with small children or handicaps should note that all bedrooms are located downstairs & a narrow spiral staircase is the only back exit from the upper deck. Again this wasn’t problematic for us but it could be for others. We loved floating at the dock and the host supplied plenty of lake toys for us to enjoy. The covered dock was not wide enough for our small boat to enter but there was enough space on pier right beside it to dock our boat on water during our stay. Also, loading was easy since the boat ramp is located just a few yards away. We enjoyed spending time on the back covered deck & on the swing at the dock. We are already looking forward to our next visit! Thanks again Pat!
