About this property
THE CABIN AT HIDDEN COVE
Introducing the newly renovated Cabin at Hidden Cove, located on beautiful Lake Murray in Chapin, South Carolina. The cabin, originally constructed in the 1880s, was completely renovated from top to bottom in 2019 and is now outfitted with a state-of-the-art Control4 smart house system to complement its comfortable, rustic ambiance. This cabin has been aptly described as “Little House on the Prairie meets Star Trek!” A mounted touch screen is simple to use, and controls all lighting and electronics, including in-ceiling surround sound speakers in the den, kitchen and on the lakeside deck. Choose your entertainment, from cable television, streaming video and music services, or play your own music throughout the cabin from your phone or tablet. The cabin features two bedrooms, a large bathroom, unlimited hot water from a tankless water heater, washer/dryer, a gas fireplace, beautifully restored heart-of-pine floors and a huge deck overlooking the water. In the brand new kitchen, you will find everything you need to prepare culinary delights, including a refrigerator/freezer, oven, stove, microwave, dishwasher, and dimmable enhanced lighting above and below the cabinets to create a cozy, classy ambiance. After dinner, sit on the covered deck listening to your favorite tunes, and enjoy a spectacular view of Lake Murray.
A dock and boat ramp are provided, as well, so feel free to bring your own boat, or ask us about the local boat rentals that are available. We have two kayaks and a paddle board available for your use - they are located beside the boat ramp by the dock.
The Cabin at Hidden Cove is a completely unique experience on Lake Murray – a rustic feel with all of the modern conveniences of the 21st century.

Why they chose this property
The Cabin at Hidden Cove has been in the Moses family for over 60 years, and the cabin itself was built (we believe) around the 1880's. The cabin was completely renovated in 2019, including a brand new kitchen and bathroom, new front and back porches, all new furniture, and a state-of-the-art electronics system that is integrated into a Control4 smart house package. Keyless touchpad locks on the front and back doors are programmed with the last 4 digits of your telephone number so you can't forget your entry code, and unlocking the door also activates the indoor lighting and music. Locking the door with the keypad also shuts down the television, music and lighting. Dishwasher, and washer/dryer included, as well as fast WiFi.
A wall-mounted touch screen operates the television, indoor and outdoor music, dimmable lighting, and even the door locks. In-ceiling speakers in the den, kitchen and back porch provide streaming music, news, or play your own music or movies from your phone or iPad. At bedtime, a "goodnight" icon on the touch screen shuts down the television, music, and most of the lighting. The rustic cabin features granite counter tops, dimmable under and over cabinet lighting in the kitchen, a gas log fireplace on chilly evenings, and unlimited hot water from the on-demand water heater. The property also includes its own dedicated dock and boat ramp, so that you may bring your own boat or jet skis, or take advantage of boat/jet ski rental options on Lake Murray (with a delivery and pick-up service, if desired).
Local wildlife includes deer, ducks, foxes, bald eagles, herons, red-tailed hawks, osprey, and an assortment of other birds. The brand new landscaping features exterior lighting that creates a magical ambience at night, and guests have thoroughly enjoyed watching evening thunderstorms from the lakeside covered deck, with the sound of rain falling on the metal roof. The deck also includes a grill and a table and chairs for outdoor dining.
