Why the Owner Chose Chapin
We LOVE the purple martin sanctuary in the middle of the lake...sunset cruises are a must! The home is situated in a serene private cove for wonderful nature watching and fishing.
The Unique Benefits at this House
We LOVE to get away whenever we can and enjoy this retreat, so we decided to share this joy with others and make it available for vacation rentals. It is our desire that you experience the same peace and joy we have. ...Some of our favorite activities include spending time together on the screened porch and deck with the oil lanterns while grilling. Also we love the spectacular night light of illumiated stars when the moon is scarce!

We decided to take a family vacation this summer to Lake Murray. This home was located easily through this website. The home was spacious with nice size bedrooms to fit a small family gathering comfortably. The dock was stable and managed to hold a pontoon boat without any problems. The outdoor patio was also comfortable and nice to sit and admire the lake view. Having said that, upon arrival we were greeted by spider webs on the front door entrance which I cleaned up. The owner left a nice note stating that the air conditioning unit did not work properly in the summer months and the house would not be able to cool down below 80 degrees during the day. She did place a noisy portable cooling unit in the upstairs walkthrough bedroom that was taped into the window. It did help during the day (in that room) but not the rest of the home and since the window needed to remain open because of the unit, all the bugs would crawl and fly into the house. The house, although nicely decorated had lots of draperies and wall to wall carpeting which may have contributed to the allergic exacerbations in almost all of those who stayed. Nothing a little Benadryl and Pseudafed couldn't make tolerable. She did supply us with a fully equipped kitchen and functioning microwave, toaster, dishwasher,and coffee maker. Just we couldn't use the microwave or coffee maker at the same time since it tripped the breaker box often. All in all, having had the family together was a very enjoyable time. Lake Murray is a lovely vacation spot. We will return to Lake Murray in the future but not to this home and I would not recommend it to anyone unless these problems are corrected.
Owner response:While I appreciate the inital kind words, I would like to address the air conditioning issue. Anyone who lives in a home knows things can go wrong, columbia is known for being a very HOT location...it's even being used in current columbia marketing:) We have a 2 story great room and the time these guests stayed was very hot and it's correct that traditional air conditioning has approximately an 18 degree effect .... HOWEVER we have installed 2 UNIQUE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEMS to address this problem. NOW we are not relying on normal a/c but 2 additional units that work exceptionally well. As for the bugs....yes this is a lake with MANY trees....I don't like bugs and spiders either, but with a lake environment you will have them outside and inside if you have windows opened. It is true, appliances are placed in opposite areas of the counters due to the electrical issue....this has been the case since the house was built. This was once our residence and we take pride in our home, for the comfort of our future guests we did find a solution to the AC issue......I can say with confidence....you won't have any air conditioning issues here. We hope you choose our home for your next vacation or special occasion.
