Great family vacation!
Our family of 5 had a wonderful time here. The house was very accommodating and had everything we needed for a week. We spent most of the week boating/tubing which the kids loved. The owners were easy to communicate with and responded quickly when we were communicating. It’s a great house for families with kids of any age and would definitely come back again.

So many activities!
We stayed here for a week with a group of six families with five kids (1-6 years old). The house was super comfortable and spacious. We loved the puzzles, board games, kids books, pool toys, kayaks and stand up paddle boards! The kitchen was super well stocked with a mixer and baking equipment. We made s'mores every evening and had a great view of the meteor shower. It was a bonus that the house is conveniently located about 15 minutes from the nearest grocery store. Can't recommend it enough, we had a fantastic stay!

Peaceful lake getaway
This house has everything and felt like a real home! It was well equipped with all the little things most rentals are missing like tissue boxes and hand soap by all the sinks. We cooked most meals and the kitchen had all the tools and appliances. The kids loved the games, the pool, and the kayaks. The beach next to the dam was only a few minutes away, so the kids could still build sand castles and swim. The property shoreline is too weedy for swimming. Every morning a flock of canadian geese would rest on the lawn. The owners were so communicative and left us a welcome basket. I would say the only minor negative is the internet is slow if you're used to city high speed, but it's good to unplug on vacation.

great experience
Comfortable home to stay at. The pool was great. Lots of games and toys for the family to use inside and out. Appreciated the 2nd frig. Loved having our dogs there. The only location drawback was the property is in a cove which meant there was not deep water to swim around the dock area. Not the homes fault though. But we did enjoy having lake access for our rental boat. Communication has been great through the entire process. Great Experience, thanks

Rene's Retreat was immaculate, spacious and perfect for our family get together. There was a welcome basket with coffee and s'more fixings to greet us. We all enjoyed the pool, the proximity to the lake, the kayaks and the quiet location. There was plenty of room for us to spread out, lots of games, books and dvds and the kitchen was well stocked.

Wonderful vacation home for large family
We so enjoyed our stay at Rene’s Retreat. The teens, young adults and adults LOVED the “toy/play” room. The Shuffle board was a HUGE hit. The kitchen was very well supplied. We rented a pontoon boat for a day. The pool was a Godsend on the hot days. There were 15 of us and we had plenty of room. Krys was so easy and a pleasure to work with. Thank you !

This trip was a Christmas gift to my children, their spouses and my grandchildren and it could not have been more perfect. We weren’t all able to be there for the full week but my sons-in-law thanked me profusely for the excellent choice. We did tour a couple of spots - like the whiskey distillery, aqueduct, river trail, we really didn’t need to leave the site, there was so much to do. I hope to book again.

Whole Family Vacation
Three generations of family love’s staying at this property at one time, this was our third year and have already scheduled next year. The property easily accommodates the whole family. The children love the pool when the family is not on the lake. The boat house easily accommodates our speed boat and wave runner. The owner is very gracious, always has a nice welcome package of goodies, and is always on call if needed. Again we love our stays.

Great Family Vacation Spot
Our group of 11 enjoyed everything about our stay at Rene’s Retreat. I’ve never stayed anywhere with such a well-equipped kitchen, variety of games, books — the ping pong table, fooseball, outdoor Jenga, swimming pool - all added to the fun! Spring for the linens they provide for the extra cost - they are definitely high-end and worth it. We fished off the dock, made s’mores and enjoyed the fire pit at days end. We rented a pontoon boat for the week and spent lots of time on the beautiful Lake Gaston. My ocean-loving family may have been converted to a lake-loving group. Rent at Rene’s Retreat - you won’t be disappointed.

Amazing property
Really beautiful and well kept property. Four bedrooms on the bottom floor which allowed our older kids to have their own space and the adults had the three bedrooms on the main floor. We used the pool on a daily basis, built a fire a couple of nights, ping pong battles and there was plenty of fishing from the dock. We rented a pontoon boat for a couple of days so we really enjoyed the lake. So much to do here. The owners even allowed us to bring our two dogs and our older lab loved jumping and swimming from the dock. So many wonderful memories.

The house meets all our expectations, the children totally enjoyed the pool, and the boathouse easily kept our ski boat and wave rider safe and within reach.

About the host

Hosted by Krystina Grimstead

Host profile image
My husband and I purchased this home because of our love of the Lake. We have already added a lot of new features for even more fun. Our family lives in Apex, NC, but we have a great local house manager and a wonderful pool/lawn contractors. I work for a retirement community and my husband works in local government, but we do this because we love the lake experience. We are so excited about sharing our love for the lake life with others.

Why they chose this property

My husband and I looked at a lot of homes at Lake Gaston and knew this was our home the minute we walked in and saw all the features. When you walk in there are cathedral ceilings, 12’ ceilings on the second floor, 4 of the bedrooms have french doors that look out to the lake, the view out onto the lake, the dock, and that is all before you get to the private pool. You have to see the home in person, because the pictures to not do it justice!
