Beautifully appointed, spotlessly clean, and generously stocked. Floatin' and Boatin' is a wonderful place for making family memories. Tons to do and plenty of room to do it in. The owners are easy to contact, responsive, and proactive. The entire process from start to finish was flawless. Can't recommend it highly enough and can't wait to go back!

Beautiful home and property
We have vacationed in Lake Gaston for 5 years. We absolutely love this area and the beautiful lake. However, this was our first year at ‘Floating and Boatin’, and it beyond surpassed our expectations. The home is so beautiful. The views of the lake make mornings on the porch heavenly, and the dock with its many toys impressed all of us from age 4 to age 76! I could go on forever…By far one of my favorite stays at Lake Gaston. Thank you Edie and Steve for a wonderful core memory vacation.

Weekend at the lake
Excellent!! Place worked great for our whole family. Grandkids spent a lot of time on the floating mat or the Big Bubba we rented. Having kayaks and stand up paddle boards was a treat. The house had so many things inside for entertainment as well. Edie was great at communicating and a pleasure to deal with.

Still Talking About It
Since our lake trip, everytime I speak with my kids they keep raving about our lake trip...yes, alot of it is being together but The Red Tin Roof house made it so much more...the house has ever thing we needed and more. We're all trying to figure out a date to go back! The one time I phoned the owner, she texted back almost immediately ...the only problem we all had was we ran out of time...thanks so much!

We had an absolutely perfect stay at the lake house! Everything was exactly as described, and it comfortably accommodated all 16 of us, ranging in age from 8 to 72. The house had all the amenities we needed, and the views were stunning. Edie, the owner, was super helpful and incredibly responsive throughout our stay, making sure everything was just right. It was a wonderful time for everyone, and we can't wait to come back!

Beautiful Lake Home with Everything you Need!! So Peaceful and Relaxing!!
We had such a great week at Floatin and Boatin! The house is on a peaceful and beautiful part of the lake! We enjoyed the dock and the splash mat along with the paddle boards and kayaks! The kids enjoyed fishing and jumping off the top dock. This house has everything you could possibly want in a lake home. The kitchen was the most stocked kitchen we have ever seen at a vrbo and everything in the house is neatly labeled and organized! The beds were comfortable and the house has plenty of seating and areas to hang out! The downstairs game rooms and extra kitchen were a much added bonus and something we really enjoyed having! Edie was so responsive any time we needed anything and was quick to help with all our questions. We had such a great week and would definitely come back to this house !! Thanks again for opening up your home to us:)

Perfect Vacation
My family, ages 18-60, just spent an amazing week loving everything about this house and property! There was plenty of room for the 10 of us, not only bedrooms but the beautiful dining room table seated us all comfortably and the porch had ample chairs for us to sit around for morning coffee and evenings when we simply enjoyed being together. The house was fully equipped with every amenity we could ask for and we especially appreciated the drink cooler behind the downstairs bar. We played pool, ping pong and card games inside and spent hours outside at the dock. The location was ideal and our decision to go the week after July 4th was the best because we almost had the whole lake to ourselves. Shopping was close by and we visited the Rosemont Vineyard one afternoon. Lastly, communication with Edie was great from booking to check-in and even though we didn't need to contact her at all during our stay, she made it clear we could at any time. It's obvious she cares and wants every guest to have a wonderful stay which we sure did!

My family and I stayed for the Memorial Day weekend, and we couldn't have asked for anything better. This house was absolutely beautiful! The house had everything we needed. Everything was labeled so we were able to find anything we needed with ease. There is so much provided for the guests. The number of games we had access to make this a true winner for the kids.

Absolutely Amazing
I was looking for a place to do a weekend of training for our missions team. This place was perfect. It was big enough for all 11 of us. It also had plenty of room to practice our dramas. We all loved the 4 seasons room with the view of the lake and that is where we had our meetings. Several of us ate breakfast on the porch also with a view of the lake. It was very overcast but a few of them braved getting into the water! I will definitely be renting this place again for training all my teams if it is available. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful place.

Our Women's Ministry took 15 ladies for a weekend retreat to this house and it was abundantly more than we could have ever imagined. There was plenty of space for us all to be together and plenty of spaces and activities for when we needed to be apart as well. We were blessed with beautiful weather and were able to enjoy the kayaks, the firepit and see an amazing sunset over the lake. The owner was so sweet checking in with us and very attentive to questions that we had. Everything was stocked and labeled making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. We all wish we could have stayed longer and will definitely consider staying here again. Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful piece of paradise with us.

This lake house has it all!! We stayed during a range of temperatures (33-60) and we never got bored. It is spacious, cozy, and set-up well. The only thing I would say is make sure you are not planning on finding a ton of this to do around the area. The Winery- The Rosemont- is beautiful and there is a bakery-BJ’s- that has UHmazing cakes, pies, and cinnamon rollsCan’t wait to come back.
