About this place

Custom Home on Large Cove of Poplar Creek

"Toes in the Water" at Lake Gaston, located on large cove, around the corner from main lake at mile marker 14 of 34. 90 min from Raleigh, NC and Richmond, VA.

Large open concept main floor, fully stocked kitchen, plenty of seating. Master on main with 4 bedrooms on lower level, 2 lake facing. Rec room with ping pong, TV, wet bar. High speed fiber internet.

Large boathouse with bar, 4 kayaks, firepit, cornhole, small fishing boat with trolling motor, high speed fiber internet.
Upon entering the front door, you can see the lake through large doors and windows. On the main level is a large great room with gas fireplace. Enjoy preparing family meals in the fully stocked kitchen or grilling on the 6-burner Weber grill. Plenty of seating is available for everyone to gather for meals. Relax in the screen porch located off the dining room and watch the heron that loves to visit the cove.

The master bedroom has sliders to the deck and a private bathroom with large shower and custom cabinets.

Also located on the main level is a half-bath and laundry.

The kids will love to hang downstairs in the rec room with wet bar, 2nd fridge, ping pong table, TV, sectional and pub table for game night.

There are 4 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms downstairs. 2 bedrooms are lake facing each with en-suite access to a bathroom. 1 bathroom has a shower, the 2nd a tub/shower combo. All bedrooms have new mattresses with multiple types of pillows for your comfort. Dressers and closets are available to store your belongings during your stay.

Fresh towels (for indoor use) & linens are included.

Just steps from the house, follow the wooden walkway down to the boat house. It features a large shaded area with table/seating, a bar with mini-fridge and stools, 4 kayaks, and plenty of room for enjoying the water which is 7-8 ft deep at the end of the dock. The boathouse has rope lighting that makes for a great spot to relax after the sun goes down. The boathouse has 5 bumper posts and 2 mooring cleats on each side for securing boats. While the house is located in NC, the VA border is within sight. There are several natural areas up Poplar Creek within a short kayak trip, including an island, making for fun areas to explore on a kayak trip from NC to VA and back.

Off the water, enjoy the many outside seating areas, smores at the firepit, or a game of cornhole.

The nearest boat ramp is the Poplar Creek Boat Ramp about 3.5 miles by car from the house. Boat rentals are also available near the boat ramp at Poplar Pointe Marine. Take a trip for lunch or dinner by boat or car to the Shady Shack located up Poplar Creek, also near the boat ramp. There are more lake-side restaurants on the lake, approximately a 5 mile boat ride to The Pointe and WatersView restaurant. For a nearby off-shore excursion, the Rosemont Winery is only 4 miles away by car.
