Adorable Lake Cottage
This is an awesome lake cottage that I would highly recommend to anyone. The property is super clean, open concept and pet friendly. Nice fenced in area for our little dachshund. It's quiet and relaxing with amazing views of Lake Murray right outside the huge screened in porch. The dock looks new and great for fishing, swimming and boating. Perfect location. It’s close to grocery stores, restaurants and shops. Candy was an amazing host to work with. Quickly responded and great communication. Very welcoming. We will definitely be staying here again!!

Hidden Oasis
We have had some VRBO encounters. This is far best the well-kept and beautiful little get away my husband and I experienced. My husband was in heaven. We even brought our fur babies instead of having them kenneled. This was the best rental ever!!!!! The hostess is there for your every need, she is a peach. Thank you, Candance and husband, for a wonderful experience and stay. We will be back.

Our little hideaways!
This home away from home found itself a special place in our hearts as the backdrop to an amazing getaway with my spouse and three furrbabies! The fenced in area with the BBQ grill outside facing the lake was a great way to start the morning or end the night. The sunsets are divine. We brought our boat which was a breeze with their ramp and dock just steps away. They had a bonfire pit facing the lake. We did appreciate the screened in porch facing lake and the fans to circle air circulating!
Candy, her husband and father who we came across were amazing and very helpful! Thank you all, looking forward to being back soon.

Sandbar Paradise
We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property! The location was fabulous because it was close to restaurants on the lake and close to the grocery store. The cottage was clean and stocked with all the things we would need for cooking! The fridge was having some issues, so a little heads up about that would’ve been nice, but we completely understand things like that happen and you have no control! We also loved the screen porch! Thanks for sharing your cottage with us!

For Fellow Dog Lovers
This little cottage has a fenced and shaded yard just outside the lovely screened porch! We let our pup out to safely wander on her own.
Nicely appointed kitchen and lots of outdoor toys, chairs, grilling accessories. The 2nd bedroom does not have a ceiling fan so we brought a small fan w us. Nice open concept home w boat launch & dock !

Absolutely PERFECT!!!
I cannot possibly praise this place enough. My husband and I were traveling (with our two dogs) to Lake Murray for a weekend away after some difficult news. We had a different place rented and upon arrival it was not suitable to stay (broken glass, broken fence, etc). We were so disappointed but tried on a last ditch effort to contact another place/host to try to salvage our weekend.
Thankfully we were able to connect with Candy through VRBO chat and she graciously agreed to let us rent the house last minute! She worked with me on the phone to figure out a late check in and listened to my panicked rambling about the previous places issues. (Mainly worried about keeping my dogs safe) Candy was so kind and assured me we would love her rental and our dogs would too!
She was so right! The fenced in yard was perfect for our babies and they loved sitting on the dock with us! The sunset and sunrise were so beautiful over the lake and the water was still warm enough to swim our first day there. The home was clean and comforting and had everything we needed. Plenty of extra towels and blankets provided! She even provided some extra sheets to cover the couches so our dogs could sit with us. She truly thought of everything. The screened in porch was the best place for our morning coffee. We saw three deer cross the yard the first night and saw several fish and turtles in the lake. Everything was perfect.
Candy truly saved our trip and provided the most welcoming happy home!

Heaven
This house is so cozy and right on the water. I drank coffee on the dock. I read on the back porch facing the lake. I went running with my dogs. We watched the sun go down on the dock with a glass of wine. If the owners ever want to sell this place I am very much interested!

Lake Murray relaxing!
Weather was awesome the fishing was decent and the area and lake house was perfect just what we needed. Brought our dogs along and they had a blast as well! Definitely recommend this lake house for a weekend or week long get away and for a great little fishing trip and stay as well!
