- Why are lake's coves desirable? Way less noise, less boats, easier swimming, better fishing, more birdlife and quieter, calmer waters. A savvy renters looks for a cove!

Great stay and the best lakeside house! The views are very peaceful in the mornings and early evenings. The house is very comfortable and I love the deck. This is my second year staying and I will book next year again!
This house was the perfect getaway for the money. It had everything you could ever need—plenty of parking for two pontoon trailers, a nice boat ramp and dock, and clear water. Having gas, food, and supplies right next door was a huge plus. Overall, for a small group getaway, I highly recommend it!

So happy you all would be interested in coming back and happy you were able to enjoy all the outdoors furniture, covered and uncovered and obviously the fire pit space! Til next time!
It was HOT but thankfully the air conditioning was cool! Had a great time relaxing and fishing early in the morning. Spent the week relaxing and enjoying the views. Second stay here and it was great.

Love returning visitors! And for a full week, you can always find something to keep you busy and also relaxed. It is not a big cottage rental on Lake Wateree so the AC is more than adequate, ha!
Clean house and they had everything you could ever need! The views were amazing! If I could give 10 stars I would! Will be back for sure! Host was fast to respond when I had a question! Will tell all family to stay when the go out to visit the family!
This location exceeded my expectations. The cleanliness and organization upon arrival were impressive. The atmosphere was peaceful and relaxing. I strongly recommend this location. The host's response time to my questions was exceptional.

What a kind review! So happy our location exceeded your expectations! Overlooking Lake Wateree is pretty special, but being on the sunset side of Camden is key, in a cove is key and near town and a Dollar General is key and we try to make that clear in our description, but everyone seems happy with our location, end of the road privacy and especially being in a cove!!! Oh, and access to a dock and boat ramp! Til next time!
We had a lovely relaxing stay. The place was more than adequate. The wraparound porch was very nice to sit out on even though my husband caught the fish. He had a while playing with his fish and stuff.
Very comfortable, clean, nice view. Only wish was some kind of seating down at the lake without having to haul chairs. 100 yards to the water. Private dock would make this place perfect.

Sadly, we haven't kept the furniture down by the water since the lake rose up from Helene to your doorstep and took all the furniture with it :(
Happy it was super clean and had a nice view! For clarity, there is a shared boat ramp and a shared dock you can use right next door!
The property was wonderful!!! The view was amazing of the lake. We enjoyed relaxing on the large covered porch which over looked the lake. Quiet peaceful setting. The house was very comfortable and quaint. We will be back!
Everything was great. Enjoyed relaxing on the deck and dock. The community landing was perfect for my boat. Very convenient to Camden if you need to make a quick trip to town. Communication was great and the property is very well maintained. Will definitely be back.

So happy you guys had a great getaway long weekend!
We were in town for a fishing tournament, this was so convenient to landing and had plenty of on site parking for boat! Our friends rented home next door and this was a perfect spot for us! The washer/dryer in rental was nice, the ceiling fans throughout was nice and we loved all the updates in home! We hope to return one day

Thanks so much for the kind review! So happy you found a lakehouse that allowed your friends to stay next door. We have 4 side by side lakehouses in case anyone is reading this! Two 2 bedrooms, a 3 bedroom and a 4 bedroom, 6000 sq ft estate rental. Come stay and grow your friendbase!
This is the perfect property. Tucked back a few yards from the shore, but the views are magnificent! Putting the boat in right next to the house and docking right in front of the house was wonderful. No loud neighbors, no noise, just a quiet getaway. Will be back.

Love that you called is the perfect property! Love that you found your peace and quiet and didn't break the bank! That's a successful for the both of us! We hope to see you all again on the shores with Lake Wateree Vacations!
This place was perfect for me, my small pup and my best friend. There is direct access to the lake so we brought our creek boats along. My best friend fished every day all day. My pop was even able to join us daily for morning boat rides. Having access to a ramp was very handy. I especially liked the small patch of woods next to the property. It was nice walking the dog there. The neighborhood was quiet and the sunsets were amazing. The house was stocked so I just brought food and cooked all week. I really enjoyed the cozy little place.

So happy we were a 10 out of 10 for you guys and thanks for including images! They help future guests decide on a lakehouse for themselves! Happy you took advantage of the ramp next door and had access to a dock to launch from too! We love meeting or exceeding expectations!
Great little house about 100 yrs from the lake. Able to dock the boat and come and go all day. Clean, modern and comfortable. Wonderful full windows with lake views and a great wrap around porch with rocking chairs, table and loungers. Thoroughly enjoyed the trip. Will be back!

So happy you enjoyed your stay at Lake Wateree! And so happy you are already planning a return trip!
Stranded with no accommodations 500 miles from home with a dog in a city with large events happening. Our reservation was cancelled 1 hour from check-in with an explanation that the property was double booked. VRBO failed to respond to 2 escalated chat sessions. No assistance was provided by VRBO or the host to find us comparable accommodations. Will be escalating this situation to my attorney and social media.

We understand your frustration with the calendar error, technology failed us both. However, we have to disagree with your "host providing no assistance" comment. When we discovered the calendar issue, we offered to let you stay at our 5 bedroom lakehouse for free the first night while we all figured things out, together. You were unwilling to stay the night next door because "moving was not an option for your partner." We also found and recommended the only remaining Camden rental available at the time (that had great reviews), and although not lakefront, we offered you lake access for part of your stay AND your original cottage back for the Saturday night of your trip at no cost (when the current guests departed). We tried to get creative, we offered to look in neighboring towns, we found you other lodging, but none of these were entertained. We are sincerely sorry.
