The Vista: 3-BR, Sunsets over Lake Wateree - 3 Bedroom w DOCK!

Welcome to beautiful Lake Wateree in Camden SC... on the SUNSET side AND in a COVE! 1/2 acre of lake frontage w/ unobstructed views from sunrise to sunset. Fully remodeled (March ‘21) with 200+ sq ft of covered porch, plenty of seating, great WiFi, built-in Fire Pit, Smart TVs & water toys. Dock & Boat launch/ramp access next door, but also 2 marinas minutes away! 20 mins to Camden. 15 mins to Wal-Mart & Chic-Fil-a. Zero entry, clean, safe lake. $50 Pet fee. See you on the lake! Sunset side of Lake Wateree AND in a cove! Location! Location! Location! Why is the Camden side preferred? For the amazing sunsets, of course! Why are lake's coves desirable? Way less noise, less boats, easier swimming, better fishing, more birdlife and quieter, calmer waters. Savvy renters look for coves, "Once you go cove, you don't go back!" Need more bedrooms or need to sleep more? Next door we have 2 adjacent lakefront cottages for overflow guests! 2-BR: airbnb.com/h/watereetiny 2-BR: airbnb.com/h/watereecottage YOUR LAKEHOUSE: Single level living, "Chip & Joanna" approved interior :) New remodel in 2020. 3-full bedrooms, stocked kitchen, WiFi, Hulu TV, A/C, ceiling fans, W/D, linens, plenty of land, huge deck, plenty of seating. Room to maneuver & park many cars & trailers! Use our ramp next door to put in, but this dock will be shared with our new cottage we just finished next door… FUN FACT: Every dock in SC is shared with any party that arrives via boat. Anyone can legally fish from any dock so having a shared doc is technically every dock. Come enjoy the sunset side of Lake Wateree! LOCATION: Camden, SC on beautiful Lake Wateree (less than 1/2 mile to Clearwater Marina whose address is 2029 Baron Dekalb Rd, Camden SC for our roundabout location of our cabin). Only 12 minutes to downtown Camden, to Wal-Mart, Starbucks & Chic-fil-a! The Charlotte airport is 1.5 hours and Columbia, SC is only 45 minutes away. Also, less than 5 minutes to a Dollar General (a very good one) that will have what you forgot! Yes, we have upscale restaurants nearby, and yes, we are near the South Carolina Equine Park facility in Camden and HOTH Ranch (their visitors stay with us often!) We are also only 5 minutes from Wateree Recreation area! Typically, guests have access to 1 kayak and 1 paddle board, but also the potential to share water toys with our three adjacent lake houses (each cottage has a couple water toys that are shared frequently). Our lake is typically a beach-entry type lake depending on the water levels. We also overlook one of Wateree's islands, are in a cove and no, there are no alligators this far north (Floridians always ask). Additional parking at our airplane hangar. Welcome to “Lake Wateree Vacations!” No Contact Entry Promise! You will have full access to the land, a fire pit, a kayak or paddleboard (and access to another). Shared dock and access to a boat ramp. No contact check-in promise, but we are a phone call or minutes away! We are within 20 minutes of Camden SC and less than 15 minutes to restaurants and grocery stores and a Wal-Mart. We are on the Camden side of Lake Wateree and only a mile from the marina (3 miles to a second marina) so you know the location is excellent for lake lovers, boaters and fishers! We so look forward to sharing our lakehouse with you! There is room for a couple boats just in case. And we have had decent size boats put into our ramp so it is plenty deep :)

Getaway in April

Location and setting was outstanding. Owner was great to work with, quick responses meeting all our requests. House size was small with step down in hall - reason for overall rating of 4 stars.Enjoyed our short stay.

nice location

The house was perfect in location and the property manager was very helpful when we requested additional paper towels and TP. We checked early and the cleaner wasn't finished, but was very nice. If you bring a boat, be aware that it is difficult to turn around and back your boat in. There is a private ramp very close which was very nice to use.

Updated Lake House

This outdoor space is amazing!!!! I loved having all the room to just fish or swim, & the sunsets were absolutely stunning!!! House was beautiful & very well cleaned before arrival! The only things was the 3rd bedroom is a twin bed with a trundle bed. (It is noted in description of listing, I just missed that part.) However, the teen boys were fine sharing this room and we all enjoyed our time together. I’m glad we picked here for our first visit to Lake Wateree! Thanks for having us!

Book it!

We just returned from our 5 night stay. We had such a wonderful time! This property is exactly as pictured, simple and perfect. We enjoyed each morning sipping coffee on the deck. We had a blast fishing at the lake which is only a few short steps away. If you are looking for a cute, comfortable, peaceful place to stay on the lake -look no further!!

Adorable, great location, perfect rental!

I cannot say enough nice things about this cute house! There is tons of space and privacy, a beautiful dock in the best cove on the lake, absolutely adorable interior and a GREAT back porch with a view of Lake Wateree. We are already picking dates for our next trip. The owners and the rental manager are so nice and accommodating. Thank you for a wonderful Memorial Day week!!! We can’t wait to come back! Plenty of room for a crowd!!!

Pet-Friendly Go To

Nice little cabin…our new “go to” now that we have a pooch in the family. It is small but the space is used well, there’s been some nice remodeling and everything works as it should. Great new dock so it was super easy to use our boat. The fire pit and 2 kayaks were also nice to have & use. Not negatives but a couple of things worth mentioning for future guests. First, if you plan to trailer a boat down, we would advise taking it to landing first and NOT down to the cabin. Turning around was not an easy process even with our modest 18’ foot boat. Second, there are cameras around the outside of the house. We understand the “why” of that but did not recall seeing it in the listing so it took a bit of getting used to. We’ll definitely consider staying again and would absolutely recommend it.

Beautiful View!!!

We enjoyed our stay! The house is newly remodeled and was suitable for my dad, brother, and niece and myself and husband. Mostly flat yard made the dock easily accessible for my dad.

Weekend trip

Just returned home from a long weekend at Lake Wateree. This cottage was perfect for our familyof 3, it was just as described. The home was nicely renovated, beds were comfortable.We spent most of our time outdoors enjoying the lake. Fishing was great off the dock, my son was out there all day catching catfish and bream. The location was quiet, perfect for floating on inner tubes. We're already planning to stay again this fall

The BEST! SO clean and beautiful decorating!

We stayed here for part of the week when my son was graduating from USC. We all had such a great time! The home is beautiful and so tastefully decorated. Even my son's college friends commented on how nice it was and asked us how we found such a great place! Do not hesitate to stay here, it is 100% worth it. Very will stocked kitchen with all that you will need. Also, a large driveway that was great for our friends to park. We rented a pontoon and jet skis and some of us sat on the beautiful porch while the college kids had a great time! The location is beautiful too, it is located in a small cove/bay and was perfect for swimming, kayaking, etc. I could not recommend this property any more. Just fabulous!
