Great Stay
This was a great property! Beautiful and spacious enough for our family of four. Owner had quick communication when I panicked and could not find the property after GPS took me clear to the other side of town . We didn’t use the dock and such bc 1. I didn’t ask where it was and 2. We were busy and didn’t stay in too much. All in all, No complaints. Would definitely stay again!Thanks for having us!

The house had a lot of character and the apartment was sufficient for our needs. It was well appointed and the communication was great. It did have a musty smell that I would assume comes with such an old house, but it could have been a little cleaner. The fridge had dried spillage in it and there were some things on the floor that should have been vacuumed up. Otherwise it was peaceful and quiet and private.

A great choice!!
This historic mill house has a main house (under renovation) & a large, separate suite which is where we stayed. It was so welcoming, comfortable and clean! The host provides little touches that also makes it a wonderful place to stay! I'd definately go back when passing through the area!

Visiting with family
This property was just what we needed. We were in Roanoke Rapids to see a relative in the hospital. The location was perfect. We had everything we needed and enjoyed staying here. This is an older home that has been renovated to give you access to a small section of the house. It was beautiful and the outside was awesome too. Would love to stay again.

Quiet historic home
We stayed at this property while fishing a bass tournament. Plenty of room to park 3 trucks with trailers attached and very quiet. The bathroom was huge and the shower head was amazing after a long day on the water! We would deff stay again if we’re ever in the area.

Lake Gaston Vacation
What a great experience staying here. Nice little place with plenty of sleeping options for the whole family. Kitchen and bathroom were nice and spacious. The yard was fun for the kids, they were thrilled with the tire swing! The owner of the home was so accommodating and excellent to work with from providing suggestions for places to eat and options for launching a boat. Will 100% be looking to stay here again!

Warm and Inviting
Very clean, comfortable bed, great communication and easy access. Few suggestions would be add a lamp to the living room and rugs in bathroom and kitchen. Also a window covering in kitchen. These would provide a more homey feel. We would stay there again!!
