About this property

Our home is located in a quiet and relaxing lakefront community. Watch the deer from the porch or a sunrise like no other from the dock. Fish and swim all day then have a bonfire by the lake! Have lunch or dinner on the back porch or sun deck. If you are looking for a peaceful retreat with fun in the sun this is the place for you.

If you want to pair college football with lake activities you are in luck ... Clemson is 45 minutes away and the University of Georgia is 1 hour away.

Sleeps 10 with 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. Master has king bed and large bath with separate shower and air tub along with a walk out porch overlooking the lake. King bed on main level. The other 2 bedrooms offer queen beds. There is also a murphy bed in the living room and futon on 2nd level.

Gentle walk to the water. Bring your own boat or rent one nearby. Our dock is situated on quiet cove right off the main channel. Tugaloo State Park has several boat ramps and is only 1 mile away. The state park also offers hiking trails, putt-putt and tennis.

Local grocery stores and shopping close by. Greenville, SC is 45 minutes away and Tanger Outlet in Commerce, GA is 30 minutes away.

Superb in every way!

This is a beautiful home on the lake. All of the furniture is very comfy and the decor is top notch! One of the best properties I have ever found on VRBO. Supplies were plentiful, very peaceful location, and the outdoor fireplace and living space was spectacular! We had a wonderful time and will be returning as often as possible! Highly recommended!!

Amazing and peaceful property!

This served as our family’s summer vacation spot this year and beat all our expectations! The property is even better in person, spacious, and well kept! We spent the week taking advantage of the dock and enjoying the sunshine. The kitchen is huge and accommodated our family of 8 perfectly. Host is incredible and very helpful responsive to any questions or needs that may arise. We will definitely consider visiting this site again! Thanks, Karen!

Perfect location

This is a FANTASTIC place if you have a family with little ones. So much room, inside and outside play area for the kids, infant equipped, a ton of room to gather in the kitchen. A great place and enough room for 2 families to share. We had a blast.

Summer mid week lake stay

This is great property, exactly as advertised. Perfect for our blended family of three generations (one grand, two adults, four teens). Only about 10 minutes on water to the marina to rent boat there, or about 5 minutes from the nearby State Park that also has boat put in. Interior and exterior spaces were great and supported all of our eating/gaming/ relaxing activities. Nice swim off the dock and fantastic to float on some rafts as the dock is in a cove (not much boat traffic at all). Gas grill worked great. Dishwasher was broken but I think has since been replaced. We didn't mind. Communication was great. Overall peaceful and fun. We will stay again!!

Absolutely beautiful!

The home was perfect and the lake is amazing. It's in a quiet cove and the water is about 8 ft deep at the dock. It's perfect for swimming, paddleboarding or kayaking. The home was perfect for our group. All the beds were comfy, the kitchen was very nice and had everything that we needed, and the bathrooms were very nice, especially the upstairs one. We all spent a ton of time on the screen porch too. We'll be coming back!
