We had a great stay at this home in Townville. The home is lovely and in a quiet neighborhood, and right on the lake. The house is spotless and very well equipped, including an iron and ironing board, hair dryer and a fully stocked kitchen. The owners were easy to communicate with and incredibly responsive. We would definitely recommend a stay here.

Relaxing getaway

The property was well described and the pictures do not do it justice! It was well equipped with everything we needed and could want. We stayed here for my daughter’s graduation from Clemson University and it was close enough to commute daily but far enough away that it remained peaceful throughout our stay.

We had a wonderful stay in this home! Four best high school girlfriends went to celebrate our milestone birthdays and lifetime friendships. We enjoyed a relaxing weekend of reminiscing, laughter, good food and drink and beautiful scenery in this lovely, comfortable and well appointed home. We cooked in and also enjoyed one of the local restaurants in the area. It has everything any group would need - very clean, comfortable, well appointed kitchen and baths, easy check-in and out, and the owners were quick to reply with the couple of questions I had. Highly recommend for a great getaway!

Adult weekend for Clemson homecoming was extra special because of our stay at Serenity Bay. The home was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. The location was an easy drive to Clemson. Close enough to drive but far enough to be away from the hustle and bustle of a football weekend. We would definitely stay here again.
