It was a beautiful well kept home with all the amenities you could want including high chairs and dog crates, The patio overlooking Lake Murray is beautiful. I cannot say enough about how pleasant a stay we had at this house and definitely look forward to staying there again. I highly recommend it to anyone.
Nice place! Very clean. Close to town for grocery shopping. We were fishing a bass tournament and the boat ramp was a huge plus. Quiet community.

Nice, clean and comfortable home on Lake Murray. We enjoyed our stay. We did however have a 2 hour delay checking in. When we arrived, the home was not ready and had not yet been cleaned.
Really amazing spot on the lake! Very clean, great updates. Wi-Fi was a little confusing as there were multiple. We would have loved some onsite paddle boards or kayaks to enjoy the lake!
Everything was as advertised. Our host was very accommodating and friendly. He made us feel at home. The location was better than we expected. Just minutes away from shopping and seconds away from launching off on to beautiful Lake Murray. The house was clean and extremely comfortable. Beautiful scenery from the screened porch. All the neighbors were hospitable and polite which made us feel welcomed to their neighborhood. All around a great place to vacation.
This was my second stay.. perfect quiet weekend away, was able to visit my USC son and catch a football game. Screened in porch is my favorite place for coffee in the morning and an evening drink
This property is wonderful! Would highly recommend and definitely would stay again! Spacious rooms, well accommodated, pet friendly, kind neighbors, spacious backyard with dock and water access, easy communication with the host, and everything easily ready to locate! The only downfall was our trip not being short and not able to enjoy this lovely stay longer!!!
Beautiful house in a perfect location. Quiet and peaceful with amazing views but still close enough to town so you can grab a bite or get groceries. Ideal placement on the lake as well, great starting point for all boating activities. We loved this stay and hope to make it an annual holiday.
The kitchen was equipped great! Plenty of plates and silverware. It was great having a dishwasher and the pods were supplied to use. We found plenty of aluminum foil and used the grill. There were plenty of pet bowls, pet kennel and a pet bed for our use. Lots of seating and the family absolutely loved the screened back porch! It was a great overflow house for our family! We are considering booking again for Thanksgiving 2026!
We’ve rented numerous homes on Lake Murray, but this one is our favorite. The screened in porch is second to none, and the house layout is excellent. May want to consider adding a small smart TV to the master bedroom very satisfied with the week we spent there and will definitely be renting this location again.
Everything was perfect! We had an awesome girls cousin reunion. Only lsuggestion would be a hand rail at front steps. Balance an issue for us older gals, hip ,knee relpacements etc lol. We will surely stay again! Thanks so much!
We had a awesome time with family. The house was great and beautiful scenery. The owner was excellent in communicating with everything. We will be planning a trip again soon.
I have stayed in countless rentals across the country and this is by far the best one yet. The home was clean and beautiful. The sunsets are incredible from the dock or screened in porch.
Everything was great , beautiful house and location, everything was clean and spotless, plenty of towels and and anything else we could have asked for, host was great, went above and beyond for us , could not have asked for any better !!! Will definitely be checking to see if available next time going that way !!!
