Homes

The property had great water sports equipment . Which we didn’t use because we came for parents weekend at Clemson . There were only 3 towels for three adults for three days. That’s is not enough. The furniture in the sitting rooms needs to be replaced and the pillows on the beds are awful. Needed to be replaced a long time ago.

Great property!

We loved our vacation at this beautiful home. It had everything we needed for our nine day stay. The dock was easy to access and the fishing was great! We hope to return soon.

Pleasant stay

Back porch was not clean. There was old food u fee the table and it looked like a while since floor had been cleaned. Under the porch on first floor was a disaster.
