This property went above and beyond what we could have hoped for. For starters, it is the cleanest property I have ever rented. I usually spend the first half of our first day of vacation cleaning the homes we rent to my standards, but this home was literally spotless and clean as a whistle. That alone was such a welcome relief for me.The home is in a very private and well maintained area surrounded by other beautiful properties. We were stunned to see the lake through the trees on both sides of the road as we pulled in. The car port was ideal as it was pouring rain on the day we arrived, so we were grateful it was there. The home is so inviting and spacious. Each room had plenty of shelving and tables for all of the things we brought along. There are numerous windows facing the lake, and what a stunning view it is. There’s a covered dock which leads down to a floating open dock. It was the perfect set up for us as we mostly fish during our trip. I brought a small folding table and some lawn chairs down and we were set.I would recommend bringing some dvds if you will be watching tv as the signal isn’t always super strong for Netflix and Hulu etc. There was soap and a starter toilet paper and paper towels. All of the bedding and towels are in pristine condition. There food and shopping options within 15-20 mins. Rose is an absolute delight to communicate with and she really made sure this home has everything you need for an amazing lake vacation.

It is a 'hidden treasure' in SC, as most other lakes are overcrowded. There are endless activities with in a close proximity, other than water-related ones.

Why they chose this property

Wonderful neighborhood, great fishing, skiing and local marina's. Best of all, Quiet and relaxing! the mornings are wonderful to sit on porch with coffee or tea and listen to the singing of birds and wildlife.

What makes this property unique

Dock has covered Gazebo for shade and open section for fishing and enjoying the sun! Great Location! Large lot.
