With over 600 feet of waterfront and two acres of land, this cozy lakeside cottage makes for a great vacation. This cottage is located a quarter mile (walking distance) from Dreher Island State Park. Lake Murray is considered one of the best lakes in the nation for Largemouth Bass and Striped Bass fishing. Enjoy swimming, boating, fishing, skiing, jet-skiing, hiking, cycling, birdwatching, and more.
Two bedrooms, each with Queen-size Beds and lake view. A full bath off of Master Bedroom, a powder room off of second bedroom. Queen-size sleeper sofa also available in the Sunroom. A newly remodeled kitchen with microwave, range/oven, dishwasher, and all small appliances. Lakeside screened porch with dining table for six, ceiling fan, and a hammock.
Over two acres, with picnic table, two bicycles, and lakeside campfire. Boat ramp is 100 yards away. Leave your boat in the water at our large 16 foot by 32 foot floating dock. The dock has electricity for charging boat batteries and a flood light. If you are fishing a tournament at Dreher Island State Park, you can be there by water in two minutes. We also have a lakeside Boat House for securing fishing tackle, boat accessories, etc. We have skis, and rafts for enjoying the water. There is a swim ladder on the dock. This property has a circular drive with ample parking for cars and boat trailers. A pontoon boat, is also available for daily or weekly rental.
Our neighbor is one of the best Striper Guide’s on the lake, and can show you where and how to catch those trophy Stripers. We also have a Crappie guide available that has won several national tournaments. Guides can pick you up right at the dock. We will be glad to arrange a guided fishing trip for you.
The pontoon boat is 24 foot long, has a Bimini Top, a 90 HP Mercury Outboard with Trim-n-Tilt, and a 20-gallon built-in gas tank. It has a detachable swim ladder, which can be easily attached on either side of the boat, a Lowrance X-85 graph depth finder, rod holders, and life jackets. We also have a 15' canoe, shared between our two properties, that is available free, on a first come - first serve basis.
