About Gaston Lake

Lake Gaston located on the state line between southeastern Virginia and northeastern North Carolina. One of the truly superior lakes in the country. It is some 20,000 acres and 34 miles long! Approximately 1 1/2 miles wide at the lower end of the lake! It has over 350 miles of shoreline.

Lake Gaston begins at Kerr Dam, a lake built in 1952 for flood control. Below Lake Gaston is Roanoke Rapids Lake, a smaller lake built in 1955 for hydroelectric power Gaston Dam completed in 1963 borders the counties of Mecklenburg and Brunswick in Virginia and the counties of Warren, Halifax and Northampton in North Carolina.

Normal height of the water is 200 feet above sea level and by regulation the water depth may vary only one foot plus or minus from the normal level except in case of emergency.

Lake Gaston is well stocked with game fish which include striped bass or rockfish, large mouth bass, crappie, sunfish and several varieties of catfish. Other species of fish sometimes caught are walleye, yellow perch and chain pickeral. Hunting for many species of game is prevalent in many areas near the lake. There are hundreds of subdivisions around the lake where many own retirement homes and many others own homes for weekends or vacations.

Many of the homes may be rented for week-ends for full weeks of vacation through some of the local Realtors. There are a few campgrounds and a minimum of public facilities on the lake.

Within a radius of 34 miles from Eaton’s Ferry Bridge, the only midpoint lake crossing are hospitals, numerous doctors and dentists, shopping malls, supermarkets, hundreds of churches, many convenience stores, several marinas, many builders, in fact any service or facility needed.

Among the major activities are the Fireworks Display held on the Saturday nearest the 4th of July at Eaton’s Ferry Bridge, the Lake Gaston Chamber of Commerce Battle of the Barbeque held on Saturday, Memorial Day weekend, the Lions Club Seafood Festival the first Saturday in October and the Lakeland Arts Center which produces many musicals and plays each year Good restaurants and cultural activities abound in all of the cities and towns surrounding the area.
