Could be a great Lakefront rental

Owner needs to state boat ramp should only be for bass boats. We launch our boat with issues, had to go to public launch to take out. The public launch was close. Grill was not working. We always grill when we rent(which we rent on Lake Murray 5 to 7 times during the summer). 1st night we made do, next morning they came and picked up grill but didn't drop off a new one until the next day! Yes, owner was responsive, but I do not cook beef tenderloin steaks in the house! Last night I did get to grill burgers or would have had to order out. House does need new kitchen items. Salad size plates cannot go in microwave, glasses are very mismatched, knife set was dirty and not sharp. Luckily, I brought my own cookie sheet size pan (the only thing I could rely on). Kitchen cabinets are dated and do not stay closed. Secondary bathtub was horrible but luckily only used Master bath. Would not rent again for the nightly rate being charged.

A good short visit

The location and the house layout were both good. We loved being able to sit either on the outside deck or at the dining room table and have a panoramic view of a section of the lake. The house sits far enough off the road to eliminate road traffic issues and there was no neighborhood noise. The house layout accommodated two couples very well. We had everything we needed for our visit, however, the inside of the house is quite dated and could use a complete update to furnish it as a modern day rental facility. The cabinets all contained personal items shoved back to allow joint use by renters. If it is going to be a ”joint-use” facility it needs a bit better organization. The bar area was not set up for use and the fireplace and outside grill had not been cleaned after the last use. We enjoy having a glass of wine in the evening and were disappointed that it took a bit of an effort to find four real glass wine “glasses”. There were plastic wine glasses in the kitchen cabinets and the bar. However, we were not content to drink our wine from plastic glasses. Since the house is set up to accommodate six people, I would suggest stocking the bar with at least six, or preferably 12, “glass” wine glasses. The internet did not work when we arrived. Alicia called AT&T and they had it repaired and working by the end of the second day of our three-day visit. Alicia was a very responsive host and did what she could to respond to the internet issue. Overall-A good visit.

Sisters on the Lake

Overall, everything was perfect except for two things. The one thing is a personal preference. All the mattresses are SOFT. I couldn't handle that, so I had to sleep on the couch to even get a little bit of sleep. I need hard mattresses, so from now on, I need to find out about the mattresses. The second thing was we wanted to use the boat and/or the kayak there. They both had holes! It was appreciated when the slats on one bed broke. They were fixed within an hour! Thanks! learned

Great Place, but a tropical storm happened!

Our stay on beautiful Lake Murray was scheduled in January, for four nights in late September. Unfortunately, we and Storm Helene arrived at about the same time! Enjoyed our first day, then had to leave due to lengthy power and water outages. Owner was very accommodating and issued us a refund. The house is situated right on Lake Murray, beautiful views. I would recommend this property to anyone.
