Property Description
Enjoy the comfort and timeless appeal of log-home living at 188 Cherokee Trail, a beautifully maintained three-bedroom, three-bath cabin tucked among mature trees in the highly desirable Indian Rock community at Lake Gaston. This property combines rustic charm with modern upgrades, delivering both an inviting lifestyle and proven investment success.
From the welcoming front porch, step inside to a warm, open living space featuring cathedral tongue-and-groove ceilings, rich wood floors, and a gas-log fireplace. The open kitchen, dining, and great room seamlessly extend to a screened-in porch, ideal for relaxing mornings or evening entertaining. Outside, a custom fire pit creates the perfect setting for starlit gatherings.
The primary suite is privately situated at one end of the home, with two additional bedrooms and one bath on the opposite side. A second screened porch connects directly to the 720 sq ft two-car pull-through garage, complete with a third full bath — a convenient feature after a day on the lake. Major updates include a Trane AC/heat-pump system installed in 2023 and a new roof (6 months old) with 30-year architectural shingles, providing long-term efficiency and peace of mind.
This property operates as an extremely successful short-term rental, consistently generating income that covers the cost of ownership — a rare opportunity for both enjoyment and return on investment.
Residents of Indian Rock enjoy private lake access with a boat ramp and two waterfront picnic areas with covered pavilions, offering a true Lake Gaston experience. Almost all furniture conveys, allowing for an effortless, truly turn-key transition.
Everyday conveniences are just minutes away: Food Lion grocery, Lake Gaston Coffee Company, WatersView Restaurant, One-Eyed Jack Restaurant & Bar, and the Lake Gaston ABC Store are all nearby. For additional amenities, you're approximately 15 minutes to Littleton, 25 minutes to Roanoke Rapids, 35 minutes to Warrenton, and 40 minutes to South Hill, VA — with Wake Forest about 75 minutes away, Raleigh-Durham under 2 hours, Richmond about 90 minutes, and Washington D.C. roughly 3 hours.
Whether you're looking for a primary residence, vacation retreat, or income-producing lake property, 188 Cherokee Trail captures the essence of Lake Gaston — timeless craftsmanship, modern comfort, and the relaxed luxury of life by the water.
