Slice of Heaven on the Lake

Welcome to your peaceful lakeside escape—your own slice of heaven on the water.

Relax and recharge at this beautifully renovated 3-bedroom, 1-bath waterfront home located in Gaston on Roanoke Rapids Lake.


The Neighborhood
Nestled in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood, our home offers a true escape from the hustle and bustle. During your stay, you may be delighted by visits from local wildlife such as deer, squirrels, ducks, etc., adding to the tranquil lakeside experience.


The Space
• Serene, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed, this retreat welcomes families, couples, individual travelers, and professionals looking to relax, recharge, or work in a peaceful natural setting. Best of all, every room offers stunning lake views, and there’s plenty of outdoor space for kids and pets to play.

Our favorite spot - and likely yours - is the screened-in back porch, where you can enjoy the beauty of nature and watch captivating sunrises and sunsets reflect on the water.

Step outside to the covered patio with a charcoal grill or unwind on the spacious deck, both offering sweeping lake views. Just beyond, a large grassy yard with a fire pit invites cozy evening conversations and unforgettable moments under the stars.

Great place overall! Comfortable beds, great screened in porch/deck with view of backyard, and incredible view of the water. Having a covered area with seating for the grill area was also a major plus. The property is in a location where no boats seem to pass by, so it’s extremely quiet and allows you to enjoy the sounds of nature. Hosts were very accommodating with a welcome basket, and having all important items/information labeled in the house. We would absolutely return again!

Met some friends for a girls weekend and had an amazing time. We all loved the location and the amenities. We did not leave at all. Views of the lake are stunning. It was on a quiet section of the lake and there were no houses directly across. The screen in porch with rocking chairs were perfect for morning coffee. It was also awesome to have a table out there to eat and have space for activities. I also was able to see a blue heron catch a fish while sitting on the porch. The inside dining room was also perfect for us as we love board games and it offered tons of space. The kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, and other things for cooking (especially things I have found often left out of rentals). The beds were very comfortable too.All of us agree we booked the best space for us for a relaxing weekend and would return in a heartbeat. The host was very communicative and quick to answer any questions. They were very kinds and accommodating.

I had an amazing experience at this Slice of Heaven. The neighborhood is very quiet and serene. The house is extremely inviting and comfortable with lots of extra touches from the hosts. I slept like a baby and enjoyed watching the sunset and sunrise on the screened back porch overlooking the lake. The view was unforgettable and breathtaking. I wish I could have stayed longer.This will be my preferred home any time I'm in the area!

I enjoyed my stay on the lake at this property. The home was clean and comfortable. It was very spacious inside and outside for our family of 4. Bathroom: Modern and updated. Toiletries and towels were provided. The quality of the items and decor was nice. The water in the shower was nice and hot. Bedrooms: All rooms were comfortable. The beds were cozy and the temperature was easily adjustable for comfort. Living room: There are several chairs for comfort and areas to eat such as dining table.Kitchen: The kitchen was clean. There is a large refrigerator and appropriate cooking items. I was pleased to see the selection of seasonings to choose from and the ability to utilize various appliances. Outdoors: The grounds around the property are well maintained. Two carports for vehicles, a large deck and screened in porch in the back of the property, which were all well maintained. We were easily able to work and take meetings on the deck and porch areas. Wifi is great! The view of the lake is beautiful and there is seating right on the edge of the lake as well as a fire pit. The pictures of the property are accurate and host is accessible. We appreciated the outreach and easy access. There is a home guide which reinerates the information provided via email. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would return in the future. Thank you Renee for the thoughtful welcome gift and making our stay special.

Truly a Slice of Heaven

What a fantastic view! This house was just as described and impeccably clean. The owner supplied everything you need in the kitchen. You could easily prepare a meal without having to bring a lot of "extras". No small detail was missed. The owner was also incredibly helpful, offering suggestions for dining and swimming spots nearby. The beds were super comfortable, and the house genuinely felt like a home away from home.
