Great dock, but house needs upkeep

We loved the dock and cove! Gentle slope to lake. The house is cute, but sparsely decorated. We had an insect issue despite keeping kitchen clean, and ended up leaving a day early

Always want to ensure our guests have a wonderful stay and wish we had known prior to your departure that there were a few insects. We had our regular maintenance pest control company out immediately to treat!

The House is the smallest that I have ever rented, however I realized now just me and my two adult children didn't need 4 or 5 bedrooms nor two- or three-story rentals. I will go rent smaller in the future. The Host on this rental wasexpectable; personable, nice, kind, understanding, and very helpful.

Best Thanksgiving Getaway

We loved our stay here. It was perfect getaway for Thanksgiving and my moms birthday. This home was cozy and had a beautiful view of the lake. We enjoyed canoeing and kayaking in the lake. We had our Thanksgiving dinner in the back deck with the beautiful scenery of the fall colors and Lake Hartwell. Thank you Christy for being so helpful in providing great hikes (Yellow Branch Falls Trail) and for answering any questions we had :) We will definately stay here again!

Grandparents and Grandsons

We had an awesome time. The house is nice, the dock is awesome. The water was great. The owners stayed in contact with us and asked Ifor there was anything that could make our stay better. Parking was good, we had room for the truck and boat trailer, plus you could have other cars there too. The bed's were comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed. We never left to go out and eat, but you could we were close to the interstate, but you'd never know it. We had so much fun teaching the grandsons to ski and knee board!!! We will be back
