House 9 was ok

We rented all four houses on the property. Courtland was responsive and communicative. House nine was as described. Cortland addressed concerns about the property in a timely manner. There was a broken refrigerator/freezer in the pool house that was replaced within one day, air conditioners in other houses were not working well they were fixed within two days, other minor issues were addressed. Courtland reimbursed us for the boat,a day for the houses with broken a/c (not house 9), and error in the description of the number of bedrooms in one house. I would recommend house 9. We had other major issues with bats and mold in houses 10 and 12 that Courtland said he would address after we left. Overall, all of the houses need a thorough deep clean and attention to detail. Plants need to be clipped back so that they are not overgrown into the boardwalk areas, floor mats/rugs need to be placed on the floor in front of entry doors, particularly the side door where people have wet, sandy feet, as they enter the house. Overall, we felt the stay in house 9 was good. The outdoor areas included the dock, pool, pool house, concrete bulkhead, and beach were awesome. Despite the issues, we did enjoy the stay and if all issues could be resolved would recommend the entire resort. As an independent rental, house 9 was good.

Great Family Lake Vacation

Bolton Cove was an awesome place for our family— my husband and I, our adult kids/spouses and 2 grandsons ages 2 and 4. We played the entire time!! If we were not in the water on the boat tubing or skurfing, we were fishing the banks of Bolton Cove, swimming in the pool, or using the kayaks provided to explore the cove. So many little fish for our grandsons to catch. Our house was extremely spacious and beautiful. Well built with lots of extras. The floating boat dock was great. I loved the master bedroom and bathroom and the shower was awesome. Great laundry room. Thank you for a fantastic stay at Lake Martin!

Labor Day at the Lake

This was our second Labor Day Family Retreat at Bolton Cove and this place is absolutely perfect for us. Plenty of room, very nice pool, amazing sandy beach area and a great feeling of security the entire weekend! Our grandchildren love every bit of it and so do the old folks.

Great stay. easy check in and rented the boat which made it nice not to have to get one from Marina. Boat was not exactly full when we got it which was strange with Smith marina being in site. Would stay there again if I wanted to be on that part of the Lake .

Fantastic stay

Absolutely loved this property. The house was so spacious with large rooms and high ceilings. The view was incredible. The beach and the kayaks were a big hit with my daughters and their friends. Being able to rent a boat at such a great price was also a plus. So convenient to a lot of places. Would definitely return.

Absolutely AUsome!

We stayed at Bolton Cove for our daughter’s graduation from Auburn and it, by far, exceeded our expectations! The pics don’t do it justice! Spacious, upgraded property with ALL the amenities at the back of a rather private cove! Owners were great to work with, responsive, and insured we had everything we needed. Can’t wait to stay there again!!

Amazing property, highly highly recommend

When we walked in we were so impressed with the nice amenities and the space. Our kids enjoyed the property just as much as we did. Property owner was super responsive and helpful when we needed assistance and had questions. My husband , who is very picky on hotels and condos told me , “you did good”, when we walked in which speaks a LOT about a rental property.

Great location

The location was fabulous. The kayaks were great as well as having the pool close by. Having the boat slips available for our boats was a plus also. Courtland was easy to work with. However, we rented 3 of the 4 houses and the furniture needs to be replaced in the den. The master bed in #10 was very creaky. House # 12 had bats in it. The houses need to be deep cleaned not just surface.

Quiet Enclave on Picturesque Lake

The house was just as described on beautiful and clean Lake Martin. Our stay was great - everything went as planned. The house is in a great location - both by land and by water. Plenty of things to do in the community if you decide to not rent the boat, and close to all the fun things if you bring or rent the boat that is available through this listing. Courtland was a great host, very responsive and ensured we found/used everything Bolton Cove has to offer. Would highly recommend this house and host.
