We have never stayed in a place as clean as this home was. My wife and I have owned a cleaning company for many years and even my wife who is a little over the top about cleanliness couldn't find anything to complain about lol. That being said communication with the host was amazing and even though we had some problems with the home which were out of their control they went above and beyond to correct. Thank you so much for the wonderful week we had at your place. Pickens was a wonderful little town that was close to Greenville shopping and also close to many different scenic mountain trails and waterfalls.

This is our second year to stay in this wonderful little house in Pickens. It is the perfect location for getting back and forth to The Reserve at Lake Keowee. Sandra and Bill are super thoughtful and accommodating hosts. Everything you might need on a road trip is all there. The beds are comfortable and the cleanliness of the house is off the chart. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to coming back next year.

Great option for visiting Clemson!

We stayed at this lovely house while visiting our son at Clemson. It was in a great location and was the cleanest VRBO we have ever seen. The owner was great with communication and provided water, snacks, coffee, and even some homemade goodies. We would highly recommend this property and would definitely stay again!

Everything in this cottage was wonderful from every standpoint. Super clean, well-equipped, and perfect for our Thanksgiving stay to visit family. The fresh scones were a nice touch, especially as we made it in late!

Thank you Robert for that beautiful review! We're so glad you were all comfortable and had a nice trip. So glad you enjoyed the scones; we realized your were coming in late for Thanksgiving and wanted to have a little something for you all to eat after your long drive. Hoping to see You and Lisa next year when you visit your family! :-)

Wonderful Getaway!

The cottage was very clean and well maintained. It had pretty much everything that we needed. We enjoyed the location, as the four of us were there to see family. If we come out that way again, we definitely will stay at this cottage if it is available. Thank you for the very nice experience!

Thanksgiving in Pickens

What a wonderful stay at this cozy cottage just doors from my parents’ house in Pickens! Sandra and Bill have thought of everything to make their guests comfortable and even added in some nice extras, like scones for breakfast and a present for our family under the tree!

Nice Quiet Cottage

The property is extremely clean and comfortable, located near downtown Pickens and a short drive to Easley. This gave us access to restaurants, Table Rock, and to our home being built at the Reserve on Lake Keowee. The kitchen has what is needed to cook and serve meals. It is a great long term stay location as well as for a long weekend to visit the beautiful area, Sandra and Bill were always available if needed - great hosts.

Overall a positive experience.

Only negatives were having to provide pictures of Driver's Licenses to book, and a little too much communication from the owner, who texted and emailed outside of going through VRBO

Did not disappoint

This property is so quant! Extremely clean and homey. Sandra is a wonderful host....when I say she thought of everything someone would need while away from home..I am not exaggerating. Breakfast foods, Ghirardelli for chocolate lovers and even cream for our morning coffee. Pickens is a welcoming little town and the visit was made complete by this charming guest house with all the comforts of home.

Super clean, great amenities, friendly hosts

The property was as super clean as we expected from the description. The hosts provided the expected amenities plus many other nice touches like snacks, chocolates, coffee, and spices. The exterior photo online doesn't do the property justice as it is wooded with a very sweet front porch perfect was enjoying bird songs and quiet mornings and evenings. The hosts were available but not intrusive. We loved our stay.
