Fantastic Week

Travel to Lake Gaston with my entire family (16 of us total with an age range from 4 years old to 84) and we had an amazing time. The house was beautiful, the dock (swimming and fishing) was incredible, the pontoon boat a blast, the view amazing with plenty of space to relax, have meals together, enjoy family time, play games and just unwind. Adam was a fantastic host who provided fantastic information about the home, the area, our stay and offered great help along the way. It was a hall of fame vacation and one our family will never forget.

Great House, Not So Great Location

If you’re looking for remote, this is the place for you. The house is beautiful, but there is nothing nearby for at least 25 minutes. Also, be ready to lug all your own garbage to a dump, because that’s what part of your stay requires.

Beautiful Lake House

It was our first time in a lake house, and we fell in love with it. We had so much fun with the pontoon, kayaks and paddle boards! We watched the sunset everyday while on the kayaks and paddle boards, it was very, very peaceful. The hot tub was a great way to end the day. The house has everything you need, it was very clean and very comfortable for a big family. The game room was so much fun for everyone! Adam was very helpful through out the check in and check out process. We can’t wait to go back!

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Firefly Bay on Lake Gatson. The house had everything you can imagine and more. Every room has a beautiful lakeview and perfect sleeping arrangements for multiple families. We were able to enjoy the pontoon boat, tubing, kayaks, and endless hours in the gameroom.

Great house!

The house and property were exactly how described. We had a couple families with several small kids. The location is perfect for tubing and water skiing since it’s not that busy of an area on the lake. Water is clean and calm! Only negative is that there is no yard. The property in on a hill and there is no flat area for kids to play. Luckily everyone in our group loves the lake and didn’t need a yard. Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful views in a quiet setting

We had our family Christmas gathering at this property and upon arrival fell in love woth the beautiful views. These views can be enjoyed from just about any room in the house. Everything was spacious, comfortable, beautiful and relaxing. The property owners were amazing with responding quickly to questions and concerns (mind you we stayed Dec 24th-Dec27th) even on Xmas day!!! The only thing I would say was a slight hiccup, but not due to the property or the owners... the cleaning crew that came in before we arrived missed several things. For instance, they left opened food, drinks etc in the bar fridge. This would not hinder us from stayibg at this property again though. We fell in love with the house and location.
