We enjoyed our stay! It was a quaint house on the lake with a nice view of the lake. Easy drive to Clemson for a football game! Not much around in the way of restaurants but Anderson and Lavonia are easy 15-20 minute drive for that. Overall very enjoyable stay and would stay again.

A Cozy Getaway

Everything about our stay was perfect. The host answered any and all questions promptly, and was extremely friendly. The house is so cozy, it felt like a home away from home with the bonus of a beautiful lake view. It’s an easy walk to the dock, with lovely landscaping. Kitchen was stocked with everything that we needed to cook all of our meals. 10/10 would recommend!
