What an amazing property! Not only do you have this wonderful lake, you have the house with some much nostalgia. The house is fully stocked with all the necessities plus things you might not remember to bing. Very fun trip!

The property was beautiful and unique in the layout and setup. It was great for families because there was plenty of space for kids to do their thing (play foosball) and the adults to relax on the beautiful patio. Breanne was super responsive and helpful.

Great getaway. Perfect house for our family. The decks were everyone’s favorite spots to gather. The view of the lake was fantastic. Our 7 yo 12 yo grandchildren learned how to ride a kneeboard behind our boat. Loved swimming off the dock. Caught fish from the dock. Checked out the waterfalls. The grandkids said it was the best vacation yet.

10 stars - not 5. The lake views - outstanding! The water, canoes, paddleboarding - epic! And the hosts were amazing; they met us there to show us special details about the home and operating the Tram car to the lake. The house was perfect - a variety of places for the kids to sleep, TVs in multiple levels, and so many little things (from spices to extra storage bags). Loved the location, lake, views, etc. Recommendation for future guests of this area - bring all the food you need with you - because you will not want to leave for days!

Great Place, Remote and Beautiful

Our stay at the Jocassee House was wonderful. Property is rustic but very clean. The property manager was extremely helpful in giving us the lay of the land. The dock house is a great place to hang out with family.

We had a wonderful stay at the Jocassee Lake House! The timber frame home is beautiful, spacious, and perfectly situated right on the lake. There was plenty of room for everyone to relax and enjoy. The host was very communicative and made everything easy from start to finish. Highly recommend for a peaceful and scenic getaway!

Family Vaca

Beautiful lake and an incredible house. The views were spectacular. The property manager was delightful and available with quick responses. We loved the house, architectural details, and the rustic quality with all the modern conveniences including great WiFi for those who need to work a few days while on vacation.

Our family just completed our second stay at the Jocassee House, and it has officially become our favorite place to stay on the lake. We’ve stayed in six different homes around Lake Jocassee, and this one stands above the rest.The home is beautiful, well maintained, and has breathtaking views of the lake that never get old. It’s the perfect size and layout for our family, comfortably accommodating 8–10 people with plenty of room for everyone to relax and enjoy time together.What truly sets this property apart is the host, Breanne. She is friendly, responsive, and genuinely committed to making sure guests have a wonderful experience. From booking through checkout, everything was seamless.If you’re looking for a beautiful lake home with incredible views, thoughtful amenities, and an outstanding host, you won’t find a better choice. We can’t wait to come back for our third stay!

Nice house with good views of the lake. Rustic in some ways but has a bit of mountain charm. Host was very communicative with all our needs. Pretty remote from most stores and shops. Use of paddle boards and kayaks was great as well. All in all it was a great experience.

The view of the lake from the house is beautiful. Interesting layout. The stone steps are difficult for older folks. The tram to the lake and trolly from the lower parking lot to the house are very helpful. The house is very well stocked. It accommodated our family very well and it's nice each bedroom has it's own bath. We enjoyed playing card games around the large dining room table.The best part was the host. Breanne was VERY responsive to any questions and a pleasure to work with.Lake Jocassee is by far one of the most beautiful and peaceful lakes to spend some time on and this house is a great place to do that.

Incredible Family Getaway

Our entire family enjoyed being at this magnificent lake home. The location is very remote but the amenities are so worth the drive! The house is rustic, comfortable and incredibly unique. Breanne is the most attentive property manager I’ve ever worked with, very dedicated to helping us with everything. The entire family is looking forward to returning next year.

Thank you Tina for your review! We are sorry that a small spider web in the home prevented you from giving us a 10 but we do not use pesticides that are damaging to people's health inside of the home. We look forward to your family staying again!

Authentic Mountain Lake Cabin Experience

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Lake Jocassee House. The house is exactly as advertised - a comfortable, well-crafted, and fun place to anchor your lake experience. If anything, the photos don't capture the warmth of the home which can be felt throughout. We enjoyed discovering the unique hidden gems of decorations and personal items all over the home. The highlights for us were the deck (fantastic views that changed throughout the day) and the dock, which was perfect to tie up our rental boat and just a great hangout spot to swim and relax. Breanne and her husband were very helpful with local knowledge and made checking in easy and accommodated our schedule. We hope to stay again next year.

Wonderful Property

We have been coming to Lake Jocassee for many years so we knew we would love the location. This home is so personal and so unique. You can tell the homeowners spent so much time and love in making it a home. The personal touches were special and our family loved looking at all of the precious items placed strategically around the property. Breanne and her husband were fantastic communicators and responded immediately with any questions we had. They met us at the house upon arrival to give us a tour and make sure we understood everything. One thing I love when renting is when a house is well-stocked. This home had soap, shampoo, and conditioner in all bathrooms and had plenty of toilet paper, paper towels, etc… for the week. It’s little thing, but I very much appreciated it. I would definitely recommend this home to others.

Spent the weekend here with my husband and 2 small kids (8&5). We had a wonderful time. The house was clean and cozy and check in was very easy with thorough instructions from the kind host. They view from the deck was absolutely to die for! There are a few hidden gems around the house that my kids got so excited about every time they found one. The dock was fun to get down to and was so fun to jump off and swim around. Everything was well stocked and provided.
