Floating Cabin at Steele Creek Marina--CAN NOT BE DRIVEN

We have a lovely floating cabin with 2 bedrooms (1 bedroom and 1 loft), 1 bath, full kitchen, dining table, living room, front porch, and an upper deck balcony located conveniently near the front of the dock in Steele Creek Marina. We are located in a little slice of paradise on Kerr Lake. The area is peaceful and offers a serene atmosphere. Walking trails are throughout the property. There is plenty of wildlife to see from blue herons, a variety of ducks, catfish and turtles to feed, many deer, geese, etc. A gazebo with a fire pit is nearby. This property is rented as a floating cabin only and stays docked at all times during rental.

Other rentals available on location are pontoon boats, paddle boards, and kayaks (single and tandem).

Second time staying in the little house boat. It’s so cozy and the area is so quiet and peaceful. Loved being able to have a slip for our boat too for further enjoying the lake.

Boathouse
My brother and I really enjoyed our stay. All the other boat owners were very nice and made us feel comfortable. I was able to work around the Wi-Fi by using my phone as a hotspot. The back door doesn’t lock and the shower mat needs to be changed. Other than those few things, it was great and would definitely book again. Thank you!!

Awesome Weekend!
We came down for the weekend and had a great time! Make sure you bring a set of Queen size sheets. From the moment we got there, everything was great. As each day went by it only got greater. From the fishing off the back (caught 3 large catfish), swimming off the back of the boat, to the late night power outage that caused everyone on the pier to come out and start talking. This led into a community gathering that was amazing. Everyone on the pier were welcoming and fun to hang out with. We didn't want to leave this little heaven on earth. We plan to schedule another longer weekend soon. Thanks to everyone and the owners for all their assistance during our stay.

Short stay at Steele Creek Marina
We liked the property. For some reason Vrbo keeps referring to it being located on Lake Gaston. It is not. It is on Kerr Lake. It is a nice, spacious property floating at Steele Creek Marina. It allows for a unique experience to enjoy the wonderful views that may only be obtained from such a location. There are beautiful sunsets, sunrises, and a grand display of lights at night from the neighboring vessels. Everyone we encountered was extremely friendly which also made our experience more enjoyable.

Betty Lou and Marie were so pleasant to deal with. We had such a marvelous escape in the houseboat and the all day pontoon boat rental and kayaking really was a great way for us to relax. Thanks Jill for letting us stay. You all are wonderful!!!

Very enjoyable stay
The marina is nice and clean. The other tenants on the dock were very friendly. The accommodations were as described. There is a good variety of dishes, bowls, pots & pans, silverware, cooking utensils, trash bags & cleaning supplies. We brought our own bed linens and bath towels. I never found a dish towel and the check-in folder said we were supposed to provide our own small green propane cylinder for the gas grill but fortunately there was one there with enough gas to cook our burgers. I would definitely recommend this rental for a relaxing getaway.

Amazing Experience
I cannot say enough good things about this place. It was incredibly clean, the view was amazing, and the communication with the property manager, Jill, was excellent. Jill made us feel welcomed, responded quickly, and gave amazing directions. It was a great place for a quiet, peaceful, relaxing weekend, which is exactly what we needed. We will stay here again, without hesitation. I highly recommend this place.

Quarantine Getaway
Very clean and relaxing. Marie the check-in lady was very accommodating. She showed our 11 yr old feed for the ducks and turtles. She answered any question we had. The locals were friendly and shared their fishing pole. We caught a huge catfish bit threw him back. We will be back again

What a fun weekend! The houseboat was just what we needed - clean and great location. We had a great time getting to know the other "boaters" in the slips on our dock. Such a festive and friendly environment. We will definitely rent again.

Nice Houseboat on Kerr Lake
Very nice cozy floating cottage on beautiful Kerr Lake. Highlights include scenic setting at Steele Creek Marina, comfortable bed, roomy space for a couple, upper level porch, large sliding glass screened doors at either end were nice for cross-venelation. Nicely equipped with a medium sized fridge, range top and even a small gas grill on front porch. Small bar with 2 stools and dining table with 4 chairs. Only other "living room" furniture was a rather uncomfortable futon/couch. No coffee mugs even though there was a coffee maker. Could have also used paper towels and dish soap, but otherwise fairly well equipped. Only included 2 porch chairs (bring your own folding chairs so you can use them on the upstairs deck)
