Very clean

Took my father for a trout fishing trip to mountain rest sc for a late father's day present, Kay's place was extremely clean and well appointed. Privacy was limited, main house is only a few feet away. It was ok for us, as we were fishing most of the time but i can see this being a concern for others that might stay. But again, the guest house was extremely clean, had everything we needed. Very comfortable, for sure.
Right behind the guest house on the first cast!

Great stay for a fishing trip!

Had an overwhelmingly pleasant stay here. Kay and Keevin’s hospitality goes above and beyond. The guest house is very private and extremely clean and well furnished, felt like I was at home! The house is a great location for fishing right on the Chauga river and within 15 minutes of the Chattooga River. Will definitely be coming back for another visit!

The Guest House was extremely nice and clean. The perfect getaway spot, located right on the river. We loved sitting out on the back patio at night listening to the sounds of nature. The host Kay was very attentive to our needs. Looking forward to our next stay at this unique property.
