Disliked: Cleanliness
Upon entering the cabin, it wreaked horribly. The cabin was not clean, the carpet was nasty and there were mice droppings in the kitchen drawers, in the cabinet, and on the counter. The place was a health hazard and we did not stay. Requested a refund. The pictures posted do not represent what the inside truly looks like. Do not recommend at all. When brought to the owners attention, he said he could not refund my money. Contacted VRBO and after submitting photos, was able to get a refund.

Relaxing Lake Getaway
We had an amazing stay at this peaceful lake cabin on Lake Wateree! The cabin was clean, quiet, and fully stocked with everything we needed. We spent our days paddle boarding, jet skiing, and enjoying beautiful sunset pontoon boat rides. Fishing off the dock was a highlight—especially catching lots of catfish! Highly recommend for a relaxing and fun lake escape!
