Lake Marion Getaway!
Our little place is nestled in the Mill Creek community in Vance, SC, with boat access to Lake Marion about 100 yards from our driveway. The neighborhood is friendly, with golf carts meandering about, people fishing, boating, enjoying their gardens and the local campground and restaurant.
We acquired this property on Lake Marion in 2015 and did a complete renovation, including all hardwood floors from reclaimed barn wood, brand new EVERYTHING - kitchen appliances, kitchen farm sink, counter tops, claw foot tub, toilets, furniture, decor, fixtures, Smart TV's (in every room), a/c and heating unit, water heater, and more! The unit is equipped with Direct TV and Netflix (account already hooked up) in the living room and both bedrooms. The property also has a covered building that can accommodate a boat (landing is football field away). This is a safe and quiet lake neighborhood, with a marina and restaurant within walking distance.
Guest have access to the entire property
Mill Creek is a small laid back, quite- waterside neighborhood. A campground and marina with restaurant is about a two block walk from the house.
Golf carts are a common mode of transportation in the neighborhood.
The neighborhood is golf cart friendly, so if you have one feel free to bring it. Minimum age 25

In need of TLC
When we pulled up to the property our hearts sank because it looked dismal. We spent the next 3 days cleaning. It really needs a deep cleaning. We had to request silverware, cups, towels, and a few other things. The Direct TV didn’t work and required help from the property managers to get it online. The furniture was uncomfortable. The neighborhood was okay but the county in general is very poor and dirty. There is a great State Park near by as well as a National Park and a National Refuge Area. The lake itself has a lot of stumps to navigate around and the water is very muddy.
We had a very pleasant stay and enjoyed our time at Lake Marion! Loved it!
Pros:
1. Boat Landing around corner.. Covered shed in back of property. Bring long extension cord to plug up on back porch. No lighting in shed though.
2. House was clean and fully stocked with items you would need to cook. Had a great AC unit to keep you very cool. Plenty of towels/wash clothes etc, very beautiful decor and we loved the reclaimed wood floors, modern appliances to meet all of your needs, toys/books/games for kids, washing machine/dryer on premises located in back room, beds were very comfortable and also set of built in bunk beds if needed. No dressers but storage is under bed and in nightstands plus closet space. Overall very nice place and had a lot of pros to our stay. Host were excellent!
Cons:
Antique claw foot tub: Does not exist updated to modern shower tub combo
TV- Roku but no Direct Tv
Fridge: ice maker does not work so bring bag of ice. But it worked very well and was very clean
Dryer: it worked but it does not work right for every cycle. I had to put on timed dryer to get to dry clothes more than 3 mins.
Vanity in bathroom: top drawer did not work right but bottom one did so we used it
Doors for bathroom: needs to be updated they roll and would not stay on tract. Host tried to help us so please don’t think they didn’t. We offered to fix it ourselves but couldnt get it to do right.
Boat landing: ignore rude old man who lives in tan house.
Everything was great for the most part, a few dead roaches on the floor, and there was a pair of women’s underwear folded inside one of the dish towels.
This property was very clean and in the perfect location for me and my family. The area was quiet and the neighbors were very friendly. Looking forward to going back very soon.
Very nice renovated older home that we fell in love with,, great neighborhood, great location and even better owners!! We are definitely looking forward to our next visit

Great place
We enjoyed our stay at the designer lake house. I have been to the area on several other occasions and this place is by far the best house I have rented. Great location for fishing and boating. Mill Creek marina and restaurant is just a stones throw away. The neighbors were extremely friendly and the owners were very accommodating.

Nice setting. Quiet.
Nice place. Clean and comfortable. Good location for access to golfing and town for food shopping or restaurants. Close to a park with shore fishing opportunities. The State park is not far and interesting to visit also. The bathing is a little tricky with the tub shower setup.

Fishing with my sons
It’s a really nice place but wasn’t as clean as advertised. There were black hairs all over the coffee table and also small black hairs in the sheets of the master bed. There were also stains on the sheets and the sofa. Thank you

Short and Sweet
We stayed over the Thanksgiving weekend and we loved the house. Although we didn't spend a lot of time in the house, rather at my parents house in Santee, it was perfect for us. Access to Lake Marion is walking distance . . . yards not miles . . . and the neighborhood is quiet and clean. We will definitely be back!
The house was great and the quiet neighborhood and friendly neighbors made it even better. It was nice being in a location where I didn't feel the need to lock up my vehicle or worry about my boat. The community boat ramp was very convenient too. Overall I'm very pleased with my stay at this relaxing location. My only complaint is that the weather wouldn't always cooperate with my plans of fishing the lake as much as I hoped to (which has nothing to do with the property or the owner, they were both great!) Definitely would rent again!

Disappointing
Shower too small unless you are a child. No lake access unless you have a boat or drive to a boat landing
