About this property

Fire Pit & Floating Dock! Claytor Lake Hideout

  • Dock w/ Swim Platform | Kayak, Swim & Fish On-Site | Trailer Parking

    Lake days start the moment you step onto the waterfront deck at 'Gary’s Hideout.' This Claytor Lake escape is built for sunny afternoons, diving off the private dock, and launching kayaks into the water. When you aren't busy checking out nearby state parks or local shops, gather the family for dinner on the screened porch. Cap off the night with s'mores at the waterfront fire pit under a clear canopy of stars.

6/10 Okay

Liked: Check-in, communication
The price for the size of the place and the number of people that could stay was high. We did have a dog so it bumped it up 50 a night. The bathroom is small. The property was clean but was lived in and dingy. It was nice being on the lake, although the water was murky from storms. The owner was nice and accommodating.

The place was very clean and convenient. We had a mishap with VRBO not sending check-in/check-out procedures. However, Jennifer was able to contact us and help us out. We loved using the dock. The house was cool and comfortable. I brought my kayak and explored. The neighbor's small dogs escaped and tried to instigate a fight with my dog. However, no one was injured.
