Top Dreher Shoals Dam Hotel Reviews

1972 Airstream luxury tiny living at it's best in Columbia near Lake Murray!

10/10 Excellent

"Kristen was a great communicator. My husband and I spent a week with Otto and it was wonderful! Otto is in close proximity to anything you could possibly want to do. It is comfortable and perfect for a couple. It took a day to get used to working around each other in the space, but well worth it. The extended outdoor space is great for dining, reading, talking, playing cards, you name it. It's a great alternative to a hotel!"

Family Home w/ Fire Pit, 2 Mi to Lake Access

10/10 Excellent

"We absolutely loved our stay. This home is so special. 3 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms. Grab bars at entry doors and where there are steps, grab bars in the bathrooms made everything so great for our family. 3 separate living rooms. So much space for everyone to spread out for a quiet moment yet the rooms were so big we could all 6 spend time together. This kitchen is amazing. I couldn’t think of one thing that this kitchen needed. 2 refrigerators, 2 ovens. Every gadget you could need. Counter space for a country mile. Dining table for 6 made things extra special as well. This property is stunning we enjoyed the wrap around porch in the evenings after dinner. Thank you again for sharing your home with us. Core memories were definitely made. The Gregg’s"

10/10 Excellent

"Stay was amazing, I'd stay again, but I would bring my own pans, those pans in the house I'd consider an embarrassment and would never feed my family off those. I was sad the can opener was broken. Overall for how much it costs the toilet paper and paper towels could be nicer,not trying to complain either just being completely real. I would have so much fun doing a remodel on this house the gorgeous potential it has."
