LOVE THIS HOUSE
This is the second time we have stayed here as a family vacation. As usual, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house offers everything you could possibly want. I would stay here every year if it's available and still at an affordable rate.

Great Accommodations
The house was very clean and in a quiet part of the lake. The owner worked with us on our check-in needs, which was much appreciated. The basement in particular is a very nice space and great to gather after a day in the sun.

Meeting our boys from NC
My family and our friends live in MD. We met our sons who live in NC. The house was perfect for our group of 12. It is very spacious with lots of seating. The covered boat deck was awesome since our weather wasn’t great. The amenities were as advertised and there were a lot. We had a great weekend and would definitely go back.

Peace and quiet
My husband and I had a wonderful stay at Awesome Sunsets. The kitchen is fully stocked and I cooked every night. Even though it was just the two of us, this place is great to share with family! The two separate living areas would allow for some great family fun playing pool and games while also providing some personal space. The view from the boat dock was a little slice of heaven. We could truly see ourselves living lake life on a more permanent basis. The hosts have really outdone themselves with all the little touches to make any length of stay a memorable one.

Family Thanksgiving
We rented Awesome Sunsets as a central location for our extended family to celebrate Thanksgiving 2023. The property was immaculate and well appointed. Given that the main event was Thanksgiving, we were delighted to find 3 large refrigerator/freezers inside and another at the boat house. The house provided plenty of entertainment options for the family. We were delighted with this wonderful vacation rental!

We had an amazing time! There were so many things to do. The view was beautiful and they put a lot of thought into providing lots of options. Planning to return during the warmer months so that we can take more advantage of the outdoor activities.

A slice of heaven!
This was our first trip to Lake Gaston and it certainly will not be our last! The house is stellar to say the least! It worked out perfectly for our group. We had adults and tweens on the top floor and our teenage boys took over the bottom level: “The Man Cave!” I think they will be very disappointed when they go to college and find their apartments are not nearly as nice as this LOL! We could close the door and it was like having two houses in one! And what a prime location! You have deep water where the kids can jump and dive but not too deep where you’re over worried. The adults, my kids and their friends loved all of the many many amenities offered! There is way more than what’s listed on the site! I will say I was a bit perturbed that my Frogger skills didn’t return after many moons and I gave up on the arcade game but it was great! So nostalgic and even the young ones enjoyed playing! We rented a pontoon boat and my absolute favorite memory was how much our pups loved boating! One even walked down to the boathouse in the rain asking to go out on a ride. We all agreed that we are by far lake people over beach people and would love love love to return to this magnificent house next Summer!
