Gorgeous Views

Very nice, quiet getaway with a huge bonus of the view of Lake Murray right out of the back. Tons of outdoor space gives you countless options and angles at which you can enjoy the sunset and I assume sunrise though since it was a weekend getaway I may have slept through that portion :-)

Great Stay!

I would highly recommend staying at this property! It was the perfect house for our family of 5. Debra went above and beyond and the house was immaculately clean! The outside area was wonderful and my kids enjoyed fishing off the dock. We were also able to rent a boat and loved the convenience of docking it at the house. Can’t wait to visit again!

A definite 10/10! The house is amazing and the outdoor spaces are perfect for enjoying Lake Murray. Debra is a gracious and responsive host and her attention to detail is much appreciated.

Beautiful home with Breathtaking Views

My family had a wonderful Thanksgiving at this beautiful home. Debra is an amazing and responsive host. The kitchen had everything we need to prepare our Thanksgiving meal. The house was clean and cozy. We thoroughly enjoyed all the different outdoor areas to relax and admire the beautiful views of Lake Murray—fire pits, outdoor kitchen, gazebo. This house has it all!

Clean & well maintained home with many amenities

We loved our stay at this Lake Murray home. It was just the right size for our small family, but felt much bigger with the many outdoor spaces. From the outdoor kitchen to the covered dock, there was always a place to share a meal or sit alone with a book. The outside was very pleasant (even in the South Carolina heat) as there was always a nice breeze in the cove. The home was very well appointed and had everything you could possibly need - including an industrial ice maker! Great communication from hosts and a wonderful overall experience.

Lovely and Relaxing Stay

We were so delighted with our stay! The house is lovely and impeccably clean. The backyard has beautiful views day and night and has many different areas to hang out. We loved relaxing on the covered dock area with glider club chairs that are really comfortable, and the fans kept away the bugs. We enjoyed sitting on the dock with coffee and listening to the birds in the morning and then watching the gorgeous sunsets all evening. We made a fire with the wood that Debra left for us in the firepit area. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking and grilling, which we did one evening in the outdoor kitchen area. The bedrooms were comfy and clean. Debra was easily reached for any questions we had. Recommend!

Beautiful Vacation Home

This is a lovely and well maintained home with absolutely beautiful grounds and an incredible outdoor kitchen. It was well-appointed with everything we needed. The pictures do not adequately convey how beautiful it is. The host was very accommodating and allowed some of the other members of our family staying in another house to fish the dock and to gather for an outdoor family meal. When yard maintenance or trash pickup was necessary during our week stay, she communicated with us well in advance. We are regular travelers to Lake Murray, and we highly recommend this home!!

Great Location, Great Host

We had a fantastic stay at this property! Mrs. Debra was incredibly communicative and always available to assist with anything we needed. The view was absolutely stunning, and the furniture was both stylish and comfortable. Our favorite part was the wraparound deck—it was the perfect spot to relax and enjoy breathtaking sunsets. We’re already looking forward to booking again when the weather warms up!

Perfect family vacation home

We spent our Christmas here .. the hosts did a such a sweet job of decorating for the holiday that we felt just like we were home ourselves. We gathered with my local family and the location was perfect for meeting with everyone .. smores by the campfire was a fun activity for all of us. Lots of space to spread out yet cozy to spend time together. Sitting on the deck watching the sunset was my favorite part of the day there. We definitely plan to come back in warmer weather to enjoy more of the outdoor grill options. A truly special holiday for us, thank you Debra!
