Enjoy this cozy 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom family home on an acre lot on Lake Murray with BIG views in Chapin. This 1,355 square foot house has a large family room with big lake views, dining room with a gas fireplace, and the kitchen has peninsula bar seating for four including all major and small appliances. The first bedroom has a queen size bed, the second has a twin bunk + a twin trundle. The Master Suite has a queen size bed + TV, walk-in closet, private bathroom, laundry and exterior access.

We put a lot of thought into furnishing this home and had families in mind with each detail. It isn't the most updated home on the lake, but it's one of the homiest!

The house is done in a self-proclaimed 'coastal lake house modern style' with loads of cozy furnishings, upholstery, pillows, linens, and a mix of natural textiles - think wicker, rattan, wood and glass. Various warm grays, soft neutrals and hues of blue give this house a homey feel the moment you enter.

There are various options for outdoor seating and entertaining as well, including a gas propane grill, reclaimed wood Adirondack style chairs at the outdoor lakeside firepit, two more Adirondack style chairs at the end of the dock, an outdoor sectional with cushions and pillows on the patio with two oversized lounge chairs, and a reclaimed wood outdoor picnic table made by a local artisan. Don't forget the Pirate Ship themed playground for the children or young at heart!

We do have one kayak on hand and are working on supplying a few more for guests that are traveling without their own personal watercraft.

The large paved driveway has plenty of parking for cars, trucks, campers or boat trailers. A public boat launch is located about 10 minutes away at the Hilton Recreation Area in Chapin, SC (Google Maps).

The depth at the dock is only a few feet deep, so pontoons or smaller boats (we have a 19.5' fish and ski by Sea Pro) are best for dock parking. If you are traveling between October and April the water depths may be lower than expected due to seasonal lowering of Lake Murray water levels controlled by Dominion Energy (formerly SCE&G).

We live near the Lake House and are accessible by the Airbnb app, phone or text during your stay.

This is a residential lake neighborhood with a mix of older and newer style homes. The majority of our neighbors live in their homes year round but with the landscaping, vegetation and 1 acre size of the lot, you will not see many of your neighbors unless out on the dock or on the water. There are a few local restaurants that will deliver and some grocery and convenience store options within a 10 - 15 minute drive as well.

If you want to get your bearings prior to booking, look up Lake Murray Sailing Club in Chapin, SC on Google Maps to search nearby amenities.

You will definitely want a personal vehicle while staying at the this property - we have not tried to Uber or Lyft from this location and there is no public transportation near this area.

There are security cameras that are actively recording at the exterior of the property only. One camera is at the exterior entry door light to the kitchen. The second camera is attached to the floodlight over the outdoor awning at the rear and captures part of the rear yard and dock area.
Quiet hours are from 10PM until 8AM every day of the week. We have zero tolerance for noise complaints.

No parties, events, or gatherings over the listed occupancy is allowed at any time. If you have more than 7 guests at the property at any time you are subject to an additional fee of $50/person. You will be required to leave immediately, with no refund, if any events are taking place at our home.

No smoking inside of the home under any circumstances. You will incur an additional fee of $250 if you smoke within the home + the cost of any damages. If you smoke outdoors you must dispose of any debris safely, do not discard anything in the yard or patio.

We do charge a $100 pet fee for up to 2 pets at all of our pet friendly locations. If there is evidence of any undisclosed pets in the home (pet friendly or non-pet friendly), you will be charged $250 for cleaning + any additional damages.

If the house is left in a state that requires additional cleaning, we will charge a fee via Airbnb's Resolution Center that covers our costs.

Please note that if your stay is longer than 3 weeks, you will be required to pay an additional cleaning fee. This will be sent through a money request.

Early check in and late check out for up to 2 hours is available per calendar availability, at an additional cost of $50. This must be requested through your boarding pass, and we will approve / decline after reviewing our cleaning schedule.

Pack n plays and highchairs are available for rent and must be requested through your boarding pass. These are first come, first serve. We will deliver them to the house prior to your stay, if requested ahead of time. We cannot guarantee same day delivery for any last minute requests but will have them delivered the next day.

If personal items are left behind a fee of $25 + shipping costs will be charged back to you.

Have fun!!!
