    Beautiful, pristine home on a lovely lake setting. Kayla was very responsive and has created a perfect lake getaway for family and friends. The home was very well appointed, comfy bedding and lots of extras for outdoor enjoyment. Great spot to bring a boat as well as fish from the dock. We can’t wait to return.

    Such a beautiful property with the most amazing view! We came down to celebrate the High school graduation of my niece. The house was very clean and the property was well kept. The bathrooms and kitchen had high end finishes, and the whole house was nicely decorated. We were surprised with tons of great little extras like firewood for the fire pit, board games, beach towels, toiletries(shampoo, conditioner, body wash), laundry detergent, and a nice selection books. We had five children between the ages of 3 and 11 that spent every day jumping in and out of the lake, and taking the kayaks and canoes on adventures. We loved sitting by the fire at night, gazing out to the peaceful cove. If we weren’t at the fire at night, we were engaged in serious foosball tournaments in the spacious basement. There was lots of refrigerator space (two full-size and one under counter beverage refrigerator) and all of the cooking utensils that we could have possibly asked for. While we were in town, we visited many local attractions and loved the home’s proximity to grocery shopping and restaurants. On our ride home, I asked my three children what was their favorite part of their vacation. Their unanimous answer… “The house!” We look forward to staying here again in the future when we come to visit!

    Property was great, perfect location. House was very clean, plenty of space. Public boat launch was very close, about a three minute drive. We enjoyed the dock, the fireplace and the kayaks. Definitely would recommend!

    This is a beautiful house and it is a lot bigger than it looks in the photos. We had 7 of us and we had plenty of room. We loved the fire pit and the game room! The views of the lake are amazing. My husband was able to keep his bass boat at the dock and also we rented a pontoon boat at Lazy Waves for the day and docked it at the house while we had lunch. We came 12 hours from Michigan for a week long fishing trip and we had a perfect week at this house! ?

    We are a large family traveled from Ohio to celebrate our sons graduation from U of SC! The place was amazing! Perfect distance for the back and forth to Columbia and so many amenities and extras! The house was stocked! We did a lot of cooking for 12 and had plenty of untensils dishes and things - was just like home! I was prepared with things like salt and pepper toilet paper and such and needed NONE of it with all that was there! House was truly HOME! Hostess was beyond AMAZING - the way she cared for the house and us I thought she was the owner! If we ever get back to Lake Murray which we hope to we will absolutely rent this home again! THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for you TRUE Southern Hospitality!
