Great time!

The description of the property was on point, everything was clean. The entire family had a great time and we kept busy between the pool and the lake and everything the house had to offer. Would highly recommend!

Perfection. Very clean home, well stocked kitchen supplies, amazing pool, lovely views and a nice game room. This house really has it all. This is our family’s 2nd visit—so you know we love it. The only terrible part was that we had to leave!Thanks Pretty Creek!

Beautiful week at Pretty Creek

My family has been coming to Lake Gaston for years, and this trip we enjoyed time at Pretty Creek. Check-in was easy, the neighborhood is quiet, and the home is impeccably clean and well-maintained. We had plenty of room for 2 families (and our dogs). The downstairs area and game room was great for the kids with plenty of games (board games, air hockey, darts) and a living area with a comfy couch and large tv. We spent most of our time outside, enjoying the gorgeous deck and pool patio. Deck area had plenty of seating for our group of 5 adults and 4 kids. Kids enjoyed the pool basketball hoop and the variety of floats. Fans on the deck kept us pretty cool despite the hot weather. And of course, the lake! Home has easy access to the main lake and a well-equipped boat house, was easy to dock our pontoon rental. We used the kayaks and paddle board to explore the cove. Kitchen is a little tight for a large group, but didn’t feel small due to the open concept floor plan. Kitchen was well-stocked with dishes, both glass and plastic cups/barware, pots, pans, spices. The house was well-stocked in general, with plenty of linens, pool towels, first aid kit, trash bags, cleaning supplies, light bulbs, etc. Overall, we really enjoyed our time at Pretty Creek and would love to come back!

Pretty Lake is a great rental. It is spacious and comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked. The pool is a lot of fun. We fished from the dock and rented a boat. It has all the amenities you need to have a fun and relaxing time. We would definitely recommend this rental.

Best Vacation Ever

As a family we were celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary. It was so nice to have our children and grandchildren all together. The home was perfect with enough space for everyone to gather together and to have space in private. The pool and the boathouse were the main hangout. We are a water group so fishing, swimming and boating make us happy and your home offered it all. Great place and great host who answered our question quickly.

WONDERFUL STAY

Great location. Loved the access to the lake and having the pool as well. Despite some thunderstorms(yeah!-we don't get many of those in Oregon) we had a blast. Loved the elevated covered deck... We spent most of our time there when not in the water. Beds very comfortable as well.

Beautiful lake house and property with great outdoor space! We especially loved hanging out on back deck overlooking pool and lake. Plenty of activities to do at house with pool, kayaking, and fishing from dock! We also enjoyed the lake by renting a boat for a few days. Definitely will be back in the future!

The Best Blessed Family Vacation

Our family had the most amazing time at Pretty Creek, one of the best family vacation we have had without my mother, the pool was great, just wished it had lights for night fun, the TV at the dock would have been fun. But we couldn’t get it to work, overall the house was very comfortable, we would consider staying there again We didn’t find the Guestbook, but beautiful home. Blessing, Sarah

Amazing house at Lake Gaston

I've been visiting Lake Gaston for over 20 years and this property was by far the nicest. The amenities are very family friendly and there is nothing that we would have changed. The pool offered a great way to cool off during the afternoons and the dock was great for fishing and swimming. There was tons of space for everyone in the family and the locking back deck doors were great to keep our adventurous toddler safe. We rented a boat and jetski from a nearby business and the dock had excellent tie offs for both. The fire pit was a big hit and offered a perfect view of the lake at sunset. Valerie was a great host and was extremely responsive throughout our stay. We're already planning our return trip and will be counting the days until our next stay!

First Time Lake House Renter

Our first time renting a lake house and we are sold! This home and the decor is charming and welcoming, and very well stocked. From kitchen appliances and necessities to pool toys, beach towels and everything in between. This is an impeccably kept home inside and out with no detail overlooked! The neighborhood is quiet and private. We enjoyed our vacation here and will be coming back! Thank you, Valerie for sharing your lovely home.
