Vacation Rental Description

  
Come and enjoy one of Virginia’s and North Carolina’s best kept 
secrets! Lake Gaston is a clear and beautiful lake located in the 
Piedmont of southern Virginia and northern North Carolina. It is the 
last major impoundment on the Roanoke River, and offers excellent 
water quality and water level fluctuations that are less than one 
foot. It is 35 miles long and has over 350 miles of shoreline. Lake 
Gaston is within a four hour drive of Washington DC and only two 
hours from Raleigh North Carolina and Virginia Beach Virginia.

The property is located in the Quail Ridge Subdivision on Lizard 
Creek, which is a major tributary on the northeast shore of the lake. 
Lizard Creek is a favorite with skiers and tubers because its water 
is usually calmer than the water on the main lake. It is also 
centrally located, has easy access to the main lake and is close (15-
25 minutes) to three full service marinas.

A Food Lion grocery, video rental store, and an indoor/outdoor 
flea market (Friday through Sunday) are all located less than ten 
minutes from the house. Thursday night, it’s bingo at the local fire 
hall. Restaurants are scattered around the lake and they range from 
diner style to more upscale. The closest large town is Roanoke 
Rapids, and is a 25 minutes drive from the house. A large mall with a 
Belk Store, Super Wal-Mart, movie theater, and numerous eateries are 
located there.

Our lake house is a comfortable, Non-Smoking, single-level home with 
everything you will need to make your stay at Lake Gaston an 
enjoyable one. (Renters are responsible for providing their own 
linens and towels.) Cable TV, video and DVD players, along with board 
games and puzzles, will provide inside entertainment for family 
evenings or during inclement weather.

Outside is where the real fun is! Our level lot leads to the water 
and the boat dock, which is the center of lake life! Swimming, 
fishing, sunbathing (don’t forget the sunscreen), and relaxing on the 
glider all happen right there. It’s a great place to view the 
beautiful evening sky and sunsets. Skiing and tubing can be started 
right in front of the dock. A paddleboat is provided, and is a fun 
way to explore the local waters. There is a boat ramp next to the 
dock which makes for convenient launch and recovery. There is also a 
covered boat docking facility available, a jet ski lift, plus room 
for a boat of up to 25 foot to be tied up to the dock.
Besides the water sports, fishing is excellent at Lake Gaston! 
Available species include striped bass, largemouth bass, crappie, 
perch, sunfish, and our favorite dinner fish, channel catfish. 
Fishing from the dock is a favorite pastime for both young and old 
alike. Early mornings and evenings are usually better, but when is 
fishing not good?

Lastly, one of the best pastimes at the lake is Relaxing! Whether it 
be enjoying the view, reading a book, or napping in the shade on our 
wonderful hammock. There is something about the lake that lets you 
leave everyday stress behind for awhile. This is what we most enjoy 
about our lake house. We invite you to come and see for yourself.

P.S. Fall is a great time to enjoy Lake Gaston. The water is warm, 
the scenery is grand, and you can have the lake practically to 
yourself.
