Thank you so much for the great review. It truly means a lot to hear that the home had everything you needed and that you enjoyed the location, comfort, and cleanliness. I put a great deal of care into making every stay as comfortable and memorable as possible for my guests, so your kind words are incredibly appreciated.

Great Lake Marion views from a gorgeous relaxing condo. Comfortable bed. Nice large walk in shower. Fully stocked kitchen with a large dining area. Back porch sitting with a cup of coffee, looking at the beauty of the lake, gets your soul in the right place to conquer the day. Do yourself a favor and BOOK, you will not be sorry.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I’m so happy you enjoyed the condo and those peaceful Lake Marion views. It was a pleasure hosting you, and I would love to welcome you back anytime! 😊🏡🌅
Very beautiful place right on Lake Marion in the Santee Cooper area! Caught some big catfish right of the gazebo! We had a great time and would definitely recommend this place! Connie was very pleasant and was very quick to answer any questions that I had! 10/10
Fantastic location on the lake and access to the pool as well. Home was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Amazing communication with the owner. Will stay again.
The condominiums and surrounding areas need some TLC but our condo was very clean and decorated nicely.

Thank you for your feedback. I'm glad you found the condo clean and enjoyed the decor. Located in an established waterfront community, it’s a peaceful place to relax, enjoy nature, and take in the views. I continue to maintain and update my unit to ensure a comfortable stay.
We felt at home from the moment we arrived until we left. Beautiful view of the lake from both sitting room and bedroom. The listing gives the impression (to me) it was a stand alone , but it is a condo / townhouse in a condo community. It was VERY quiet. We loved it and look forward to returning in the future.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I'm delighted that you felt at home and enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and beautiful lake views. I appreciate your feedback and I am so happy you had a relaxing stay. I look forward to welcoming you back for another visit soon.
This was the most delightful place I've stayed at in a very long time!! Very peaceful with a gorgeous view of the lake. The host is very easy to communicate with and replies quickly. The only reason I gave it 5 stars is that I couldn't give it 10!!!

Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words! It was truly a pleasure hosting you. I'm so happy you enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and beautiful lake views. You were a wonderful guest, took great care of my place, easy to communicate with, and I would welcome you back anytime. Thanks again for choosing to stay at my vacation rental.
The place was very clean. Everything you would need was there. It's located in a very peacefull area. There are lots of good places to eat right there near you. It's a great place to go for peace and quiet and relaxation. We didn't really do much while we were there but there are lots of things you can enjoy during your stay if that's something you would like to do. The host was very good about keeping in touch with us to make sure everything was good and giving advise on where the best restaurants are. The booking and checking in and out and everything in between went very smooth. No problems at all. The cost was reasonable too.

Everything was beautiful very nice very clean. It was very close to town so if you needed to run into town it was literally 2 minutes down the road. We enjoyed sitting on the porch watching the boats and waves. We fished a lot and made a lot of first time memories. We will never forget this place and this stay.

So glad you all enjoyed your stay. Please come again soon!!!
What a wonderful property, from the lake view to the darling home!! Connie has decorated her home beautifully and has all the necessities available to make your stay memorable. Enjoyed waking up and sitting on the back patio over looking the lake while drinking coffee every morning. Walked the 2 mile pedestrian bridge every evening and talking to some of the locals who were fishing. Perfect location to venture out to Charlestown, Beaufort and Hilton Head while visiting. Thank you for opening your charming home to us and when we come back, we will make sure to be in contact.

Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words! It truly means a lot to hear how much you enjoyed your stay.
It’s wonderful to know the home had everything you needed and that you found it both comfortable and memorable. I also love that you were able to explore nearby spots like Charleston, Beaufort, and Hilton Head—such great choices!
You were an absolute pleasure to host, and I would be delighted to welcome you back anytime. Please don’t hesitate to reach out when you’re planning your next visit—I’d love to have you stay again!
Warmly,
Connie
The host was attentive and responsive, even inviting us to check in earlier. The home was lovely, well-cared for and thoughtfully appointed. The small touches, such as a basket of coffee and filters along with some snacks allowed us to have coffee the next morning despite getting into town when the stores were closed. We will absolutely return to this property and feel comfortable recommending it others.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I'm so glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay and appreciated the little extra touches. I always want my guest to feel welcome, comfortable and at home. You were a pleasure to host and welcome you back to stay anytime.
Sincerely
This condo is so very cute, clean and comfortable. Being an end unit, there is lots of natural light. We loved being to be able walk/bike to the path over the river. Nearby parks and restaurants were great! These condos are close to the interstate, but you really dont hear it inside the condo, and it's still peaceful outside too.The gazebo is just steps away and is a great place to have coffee, enjoy the view, have a cocktail and watch the sunsets! We loved the convenience of having no stairs, and parking just steps from your door. Having laundry in the unit was great too!

It was a pleasure hosting these guests! They treated my vacation home with care, and left everything clean and tidy. We truly appreciate them choosing my Lake Marion condo and would be delighted to welcome them back anytime.
We truly enjoyed our stay in this condo. We found it when we were looking for something central to both Columbia and Charleston as we wanted to explore both areas while we were in South Carolina for our son’s graduation at Fort Jackson. What we found was a hidden gem! The little community is so charming and pleasant. Highly recommend a dinner and breakfast at Clark’s Inn while you’re there. The condo community is quiet and peaceful. The water views and pool were amazing. Connie had everything we needed for our stay and the condo was clean and comfortable. We would definitely stay again!
