Wagener, South Carolina
The home is located on a country estate surrounded by nature, sunshine and fresh air. There are no neighbors in the vicinity nor visible from the home. As you enjoy the solitude with nature all around you, you may also enjoy the company of lady bugs. Several times a year, they will swarm and will be everywhere, and they will enter the home as people are opening doors coming and going. As its location amorously suggests, our home is in a rural area and is accessed by an unpaved road. Please, if you book our home, understand that it is in the country and in a natural, peaceful setting. We greatly appreciate that you do not disturb or molest the natural beauty, and please do not complain after your stay has ended that it was located on a dirt road or that it was remote or far from city-type conveniences. Our home is located in a natural, untamed, wild environment and you may encounter any type of animal or creature that is common for this area. Guests are responsible for their own safety and for the safety of all persons in their group.
Guests have exclusive access to all areas of the home and property. Please do not enter neighboring properties without neighbor’s permission. Fishing is allowed in the river - all rules and regulations apply. The lake belongs to the neighbor, so we cannot give you permission to fish or enter their property. No hunting or shooting allowed and no fireworks allowed.
This home has one or more video cameras mounted on the exterior. Please do not bother or disturb the cameras and do not unplug them. A tampering fee of $200 will be charged per incident of cameras or their cords being tampered with.
Sleeping arrangements are solely the responsibility of the guest. We make no guarantee of the number of people our home can sleep, but we will allow groups larger than the number of people we specify in the home’s listing. The number of people that this home can sleep is calculated assuming 2 people per bed in double sized or larger beds, and 1 person per bed for single/twin beds. Guests are responsible for determining if this arrangement suits them and their party of companions. Guests may bring sleeping bags, inflatable mattresses, etc. to provide additional sleeping arrangements if they so desire.
Pets are allowed after they are declared in the reservation and the pet fee is paid, or we have been notified that the guest wishes to bring a pet, and the $75 + tax per pet fee paid. If you bring pets without declaring them and paying the reservation pet fee, you will be responsible for paying a $250 + tax per pet fee. Do not bring a pet into our home, under any circumstances, without our knowledge and approval. We have a child who is extremely allergic to pets and their hair and dander. The allergy is so acute, he has required emergency hospitalization several times. No matter how good or well-trained a pet may be, no pet, including service animals, can avoid shedding hair and dander, and when pets are in strange places, they do strange things. If you have not declared your pet on the reservation site and paid the pet fee, so the home can be specially cleaned and sanitized of hair and dander after you leave, please, do not bring a pet into our home, under any circumstances, without our knowledge and approval. When the guest is allowed to bring a pet, if the pet soils (urine, poop, blood, other bodily fluids, dirt, etc.) or damages the floor, carpet, furniture, etc., the cleaning service charges additional fees for cleaning and repair that will be charged to the guest. When brought into the home, pets are not allowed on countertops or any of the furniture, beds, tables, chairs, etc. Pets are to stay on the floor at all times. If you bring pets into our home without our approval, there will be charged $250 + tax per pet.
Our home is offered for people visiting the area to have a place to stay while they are out and about and attending to the purpose of their visit. Our home is not intended nor offered for having social events or hosting guests and visitors. If you are having visitors, then you are engaging in a social event. Social Events are allowed with approval of host. For any type of social event, parties, gatherings, rehearsals, reunions, showers, weddings, etc. there is a charge of $150 + tax. After you reserve our home, we will send a special payment request, through your reservation web page, for the social event fee in the amount of $150 + tax. When you book our home, you will need to declare the number of people who will be staying in the home, and you will have to let us know how many people will be attending the event.

We were a group of parents and teens running a Spartan Race in Newberry. We wanted a place that all of use could stay together. It was an easy drive to Newberry from the house and we were fine with driving an hr each way. House was very clean. Host is very responsive to messages. The # of bedrooms/beds was great. The owner also provided us with a great recommendation for a pizza place in town that everyone loved! Would highly recommend this house and would stay there again if the opportunity arouse.
The property suited our needs perfectly. The location was secluded and quiet. If I were to move back to South Carolina, i would love a house like this one.
House accommodated 10 adults. House was clean and hand plenty of chairs for our group to play games and hang out.
This is a beautiful home. We had 13 people on our vacation ages 50 to 7 years old and we all fit perfectly. Enjoying our mornings on the porch was beautiful. This is an older home so there were some cracks and scratches around. All appliances worked and the kitchen was fully stocked. We were surprised how deep in the woods we were but us city people really loved exploring the woods around the house. Our kids had so much fun gathering sticks and pine needles for our evening fires. We will definitely come back but for now we made great family memories.
We found the house was clean and as advertised. The kitchen is well equipped but an electric kettle would be a nice addition. Modern laundry appliances. The WiFi and internet connection worked great (fast). The door lock is operated by a physical key (we only had one available) which is problematic if there is more than one party. A code lock would be a significant improvement. The host requires a copy of the renter’s drivers licence by email. If this is a problem for you, better discuss with the host before you make any payments
We were in town for a wedding. I was so happy to find a place to accommodate our group. We enjoyed our stay. Thank you
Rented this property to be close to friends in the area! Very clean and everything we needed was provided! Great and quick communication with property owner and he gave us very thorough instructions on getting to the property! Will definitely rent again!
Could not stay the first night, cleaning crew was working.
Enjoyed how clean and especially how quiet it was
Yes, house is secluded, in quiet area and looked clean upon arrival, but…. List 10 beds, upon arrival only 8 bed available that only sleep 10. We had 12 guest and paid for 12 guests. I was not given any notice prior to arrival, even when we had been communicating prior to arriving. Even when I added an additional guest, the day before arriving, he never told us until I contacted him after arriving, then I was told that the previous guest broke 2 beds, so they were removed, but the cushions for both futons were in the closets and could be used. Upon looking at them, they were not clean. So, we had to obtain an air mattress for our family. Picture show well maintained outside home and yard and landscaping, 10 acres with river for fishing and paths that are accessible. This is not the case. Very limited area to utilize of yard and the area had beer bottle caps everywhere, irrigation lines above ground and laying around, and fire ants everywhere, outside chairs not cleaned from previous guest. Firepit overgrown and could not be used. Front porch had peeling paint and multiple wasp nest. 2 park style charcoal grills, 1 is in ok working condition, the other is all rusted and not usable. Pictures compared to actual situation about multiple years difference and not kept up. Multiple guests started showing bug bites and we found after the 2nd night, that there were many bed bugs all through the bedroom on first floor. When I reached out to the owner, no response to work to correct or compensate, even after sending pictures. So instead of coming home and unpacking, we all had to wash everything before we could bring it in our house, clean cars, and everything we had with us plus medicine for our family that were bit. If this was a hotel, I would be demanding our money back, but since the owner will not communicate with us, to make right, I want to share our experience. I even reached out to VRBO “Stay Neighborly” and received no response back from VRBO or the owner. ☹☹
