This was a beautiful, out of the way spot. I love feeling like I've left work and problems behind and to just be able to breathe. If you're craving a beautiful sunrise or sunset, just click "book now".
Awesome host! Kept in touch and was available for any questions. The property was very very clean and the neighborhood very quiet. Hopefully we will be able to return in the near future.
If you like a relaxing and quiet stay, Slice of Heaven is the place. The lake house was clean and had everything you needed. Renee was quick to respond with questions and checking in to make sure everything was going well.
Overall good experience and host was great. Area not the best which is what we were checking out. The screened in porch overlooking lake was the best part. Accommodations were ok, but was very clean and everything was provided.
It is right on the lake and picture perfect beautiful. Sipping coffee in the mornings on the 3 season porch watching a peaceful sunrise and listening to fish jump in the lake, it was perfect! The house is super clean and the extremely comfortable beds made for peaceful evenings. Our host was very tuned in to make our stay most pleasant. Sublime VRBO.
All went well with my stay. There is no road sign leading to the property so it’s easy to miss the turn. I had one concern and the hostess addressed it. I would definitely recommend this location.
This home was perfect for our stay. It was clean and comfortable and the host communicated very well. The screened-in porch was a great place to hang out and watch the beautiful view and amazing sunsets.
Exactly what we expected: clean and comfy in a beautiful setting. Bed and sheets were very comfortable, and we slept great. A/C kept up well despite how hot it was outside. Plenty of seating to enjoy the view.Hosts were friendly, responded quickly, and were very informative.We really enjoyed The Kennon House restaurant. Very friendly staff, delicious food, and nice atmosphere.Boating and fishing on Lake Gaston was fun. We thought we might get bored and return our boat rental early, but there was so much to do that we wish we had more time than a daily rental. The lake is huge and we only got to explore half with some fishing thrown in. Highly recommend if you enjoy boating and/or fishing.
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!

Everything you need to have a great time with friends was supplied here all the girls slept great on very comfy beds full kitchen with everything we needed screened porch was very much used and appreciated plenty of room for people to move around and more . so happy we close this place and will be coming back for sure
Renee was fabulous. The house was very clean inside and beautiful. Our view was great and there was stores within minutes of the house. It was very quiet and peaceful. Would rent again.
Renee was a great host. We had a couple little issues and she was immediately on getting it fixed. The home was so peaceful and the view was absolutely beautiful. We visit family that is only 6 minutes away and we will always choose to stay here. Thank you Renee for hosting us.
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!
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.
