Private Woodland Retreat. Sleeps 10 Near Greenville & Mountains

A Private Woodland Retreat Near Greenville, Travelers Rest & the Mountains

Escape to a spacious, architect-designed retreat tucked among the trees on 2.72 private acres within a gated 22-acre property in Northern Greenville County. Surrounded by woods, wildlife, and beautiful sunsets, this 3,600-square-foot home sleeps up to 10 guests and was designed for something simple: spending great time together.
Whether you're gathering for a family getaway, visiting for a wedding, exploring the mountains, cycling the Upstate, attending a college event, or simply looking for a peaceful place to reconnect, this home gives your group plenty of room to spread out—and plenty of reasons to stay together.

Designed for Gathering
The heart of the home is its spacious open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area, making it easy for everyone to be part of the action. Cook dinner together, linger around the table, play games, or settle in for a relaxed evening after a day of exploring.
The home was designed by the owner, a local architect, as a place to enjoy time with his own family, and that sense of comfort and connection is reflected throughout the house.

Guests can enjoy:
• Accommodation for up to 10 guests
• Large open kitchen, dining, and gathering spaces.
• Cozy library with books for all ages
• Covered outdoor porch for morning coffee, evening drinks, wildlife watching, and relaxing.
• Indoor and outdoor spaces designed for meals, games, conversation, and time together.
• Access to a one-mile private nature trail through the surrounding property*
• Peaceful, wooded surroundings with beautiful sunset views

*The nature trail is unpaved and includes uneven terrain.

Close to Greenville—but Surrounded by Nature
The property offers the best of both worlds: a quiet country setting with easy access to downtown Greenville, Travelers Rest, the Swamp Rabbit Trail, restaurants, shopping, parks, and the Blue Ridge foothills.

Spend the morning hiking, cycling, golfing, kayaking, or exploring the mountains, then return to the house for dinner and an evening together on the porch.

Regina our host was very accommodating. Even though we never met her, the texts that we received from her were warm and gracious. The house was just right for our family with plenty of room. We never felt on top of each other. The fact that we were away from the city and out in the country was another plus for us.

Great Stay with Friends

Beautiful, immaculately clean home. Seven adults stayed in this house very comfortably. We especially enjoyed the dining table and room, kitchen (good supply of cooking tools), living room/lounging space, and back patio/porch. It is a great property, very quiet and peaceful.

Clemson Homecoming Reunion Success

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay this past weekend! We were able to have our friends and children stay under one roof, and it was a great time. The house is laid out very well, and had several spots where the kids could play during the day. This is an excellent spot for those looking for an affordable, peaceful weekend. The owners were super responsive, and the communication was top notch.

Wonderful house and location

This house was large enough for our group to still feel homey but have our own space. Close enough to town it wasn’t a long drive but far enough away to be peaceful! Also we were able to get an early check in with ease and that was a huge help for our travel situation. Finally the owner was so accommodating to our large group and parking needs. We would’ve stayed longer if there was not other reservations.

The house is beautiful and well-appointed. It has a very unique and appealing floor plan with a lovely library and a long table for family meals. Our kids loved the game room and being able to pick books to read from the library. The communication from the hosts was great! They made us feel very welcome and sounded like they would be quickly available if we had any issues.
