Perfect Getaway!
Posted Oct. 28, 2023 on HomeAwaySunset Cabin was the perfect quick getaway from the real world. The cabin was cozy, comfortable and calming. We enjoyed fishing from the dock and sitting by the fire in the crisp autumn air. Kathy was always available to answer any questions or give advice on local restaurants. Thank you, Kathy, for that. Being able to stay an extra day was an added bonus. We enjoyed it thoroughly! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Needs A Really Good Cleaning...
Posted Oct. 12, 2023 on HomeAwayKathy was ON THE BALL as far as communication is concerned. Check in is easy and she answered every question that we had promptly. The location was great for where we needed to be as well as easy to get to.
The property could use a good cleaning and it would have been a much more enjoyable stay.
Inside and out needs a good pressure washing, there are cobwebs inside the cabin. The home doesn't look like it gets enough use so it is a bit neglected. We went to use the kayak and had to remove a nest of baby snakes from inside.
If the home had more use ~ It would be an enjoyable place to stay. We must have been the first ones to stay in a while.
Don't mark this home off your list, just ask if they have been able to pressure wash outside and a deep cleaning inside before you book it.

I'm sorry you had a problem. I wish you had contacted me directly. We've never had a problem with snakes. also it hadn't been rented in 2 weeks so webs do form at the lake. I'm not sure what you mean about cleaning because it was cleaned after the last renter stayed. I will definitely look into it.

Great Place!
Posted Aug. 6, 2023 on HomeAwayThis is the most adorable cabin on the lake! Our family loved staying here!
The cabin was very comfortable with all amenities. We had plenty of space, comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, nice dock and wonderful views of the lake. The boat launch was around the corner at a marina with boat rentals available. We had a fun time and our teens are asking to go back!
We hope to do it again soon!

My favorite house on Lake Murray so far
Posted Jul. 30, 2023 on HomeAwayWe've stayed at Lake Murray several times in much bigger houses just around the corner from this one--all of them faced west, which is great at sunset time. This house is NOT big, but it was my favorite for one primary reason: shade.
The other houses I've stayed in were "nicer" in ever way except neither had any shade anywhere near the water (one didn't have any shade all the way to the house). This is a big deal in the Summer in the second half of the day for a Western facing house. Unlike the other houses, this house has shade from the house down to the water which makes for several areas where you can hang out in comfort during the afternoon heat.
As a result, the living area of the house feels much bigger because we spent so much time on the decks/dock/Adirondack chairs by the water.
Don't bring a lot of stuff--most of what you need is in the house somewhere anyway (from ziploc bags to various food items to shampoo and games, this house had more items available to us than any rental I can recall)--as there is very little room to put it. I grumbled a bit about "if the house just had 5 more feet on each side..." but I would go back without hesitation. Wish I was back there now.
And what I've said is WITHOUT regard to the cost difference. This house is far cheaper than the other two I'd rented. Considering the value, it's a no-brainer for those who, like us, are there to enjoy the lake and not to watch TV in a big living room. We had a blast.

Weekend stay.
Posted Jul. 26, 2023 on HomeAwayGreat location on Lake Murray. Cute house that could fit all 8 of us, but a little challenging cooking and prepping within the smaller space. However, this was expected and did not take away from the experience. Would stay again.

Great Lake House
Posted May 7, 2023 on HomeAwayThree generations piled in for a USC graduation. Cabin was well provisioned. Great porches - two levels. Dock was perfect for swimming and fishing. No complaints at all.
