*Laundry is accessible by going out the back deck and down the stairs (it is not accessible through the home).

About the host
Hosted by Janette Hines
We were both born and raised in NY and love the NY country life. We have since moved to South Carolina yet enjoy NY during the summer to visit family and friends. We have two short term rentals in South Carolina and absolutely love hosting and making our short tern rentals a place people can call their home.
Why they chose this property
Shawn was born and raised in the area and our granddaughter lives just five minutes down the road. It is such a beautiful area with lost of hiking and things to do.
What makes this property unique
We fell in love with the home the moment we saw it. We both enjoy the outdoors and privacy. The home sets back from the road with plenty of parking. The woods surround the home yet you can see some of the lake and hear the sounds of the boats, jet skis and others enjoying the water activities.
