Spacious Lakefront Retreat

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a week long family vacation at Lake Toxaway and stayed at A Summer Place right on the lake. Very nice accomodations, spacious and well provisioned. A little pricey and I think charging as much as they do for the simple amenities like using the pool is a bit over the top.

Stunning home

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family tremendously enjoyed our stay in this lovely home. The house is situated on a larger quiet lot directly across from the Greystone Inn. The site is very quiet and all you can hear with the windows open is birds and cool breezes. The house is just as lovely as presented in the brochure, very well maintained with basic kitchen supplies and laundry supplies. We opted for the daily country club membership and had a great meal outdoors at he country club. My husband and son said the golf course was very very nice and we enjoyed the very rough hike to Raven Falls (it was very tough - more of a rock scramble than a path).

This property cannot substantiate the cost. Needs updating badly.

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a terrific location and the home has great potential. Unfortunately, no one is concerned with the appearance or the comfort of the home. The outdoor spaces and furniture were unusable they were so covered in mold. The home is very dark and has not been updated since it was constructed. The linens were musty and worn. There were very little incidentals such as laundry tabs, toilet paper and simple things. It would be nice if there were a canoe, or anything to be able to access the water without having to deal with the marina.

Incredible location at Lake Toxaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A Summer Place sits on a spectacular lake front lot on Lake Toxaway. The large home has 4 bedrooms and 2 sets of bunkbeads which can easily accommodate 8+. The beds were very comfortable. The home is well appointed with all the kitchen items needed to prepare meals if needed. The home offers a unique charm with decor fitting of a mountain getaway. There was a great surprise inside with a 4x8 slate pool table in the downstairs living space. Lots of fun. The backyard is large and beautiful with a nice sitting area with fire pit just set back from the 2 lake front docks. We watched the sunset from the dock and experienced some really nice views. There are several very large gorgeous trees creating a wonderful canopy to add to the beautiful lake views. There is a full length 2nd story deck with rocking chairs for reading, coffee, and happy hour. We took advantage of the Renter membership at the Lake Toxaway CC. The Club is an extremely nice and exclusive property where we took advantage of a 4 hour pontoon boat rental (include the tube for a great experience), played pickle ball, and enjoyed 2 meals at the club restaurants. The Club has a rich history and provides a fun experience. There are several hiking options right within Lake Toxaway to satisfy the intermediate hiker(Panthertown waterfall is a good option). Downtown Cashiers is an easy 20 minute drive to visit the famous country store and do some fun vacation shopping. There are plenty of good restaurants within a 30 minute drive. Overall, my family and I had a great, peaceful, enjoyable, quite, fun, and relaxing time.

Reviewer Comments: After almost 25 years of owning a lakefront home in Lake Toxaway I was ready to sell and become a renter.

A Wonderful Stay With Old Friends

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Every aspect of our experience was fantastic. Initial questions about properties, amenities, etc.. - easy communication. Someone reached out a week in advance to confirm we did not want access to the club - we had forgotten so that was above and beyond our expectation. The property was well kept and on a great spot near the center of the lake. We had a total of 4 couples but could easily have had more. The kitchen and grill are fully functioning and easy to cook for a crowd. You could not ask for more in a rental property.

Almost Perfect Lake Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is so perfect. It's absolutely beautiful, clean, and perfect for two families of four. We will def return. The marina was amazing, dockhands were great. We loved grabbing Greystone Inn for dinner. It was a great experience overall. The only frustrating part of our vacation has nothing to do with the house, so will def give the house 5 STARS, it truly is a dream property. It is nice that the house comes with the option for a club membership, which we purchased. The frustrating thing is, though, that if you go to the pool they charge $15 per person, per day. That doesn't sound bad, but with four kids under 9 years old we stay at the pool for prob 60-90 minutes (to grab lunch or dinner) before we are ready for a change of scenery, so it's frustrating to have to pay $120 (per day) on top of the membership charge to use the pool. We were referred to "the binder," however w four kids we aren't exactly laying back reading manuals. Just a heads up, but this house was really amazing, we loved it and will def be back!
