Beautiful cottage on the lake. Very clean and comfortable. Since we were visiting at a hot time of year (mid August) we spent a good amount of time in the rocking chairs on the porch facing the lake. So relaxing. We used the kayaks once and the lake was very peaceful. We would definitely stay here again and/or recommend to friends and family. My husbands only wish is that there was a fishing pole available.

This was truly our best trip yet. We go to the lake every year after school gets out to reset because we are both teachers. Archies cottage was truly perfect. It had everything we could have possibly needed. The cottage was so clean and check in was a breeze. We loved the pool table and darts…we had lots of fun hanging out in the evening playing games and chilling on the dock. During the day the fishing was great and we went swimming and floated on our raft for hours. We will be returning as soon as we can!!

We traveled from Cincinnati to visit family in Georgia and wanted a few days to ourselves and this was the perfect place. They have everything you could need, we were very impressed. We loved sitting out on the dock, and the rocking chairs on the covered porch and I especially enjoyed the hammock. The house smelled amazing. We played countless games of pool, darts, and video games. This place has it all and the view is lovely. Highly recommend.

After reading all the reviews about Archie's Lake Daze Cottage we decided to book it for our trip to SC. We were not disappointed when we arrived. Loved the view, the privacy and the piece and quiet. All the reviews were spot on! It was perfect, we have zero complaints. Even our weather the whole 4 days was beautiful. We looked forward every morning to coffee on the porch watching the amazing sunrise 🌞 Also enjoyed the kayaking and sitting by the fire each evening. The pool table and arcade game was a nice added touch. King size bed was very comfy. The cottage was super clean and nicely decorated. It was such a pleasant experience. Lake life is awesome! Maybe someday we will be back to Archie's Lake Daze Cottage.

This is a GREAT property! The space is awesome (well maintained with everything you need to for a great time) and you can tell the owners try very hard to anticipate what visitors may want or need. Great for adventure, shenanigans or relaxing. Beautiful views, very quiet, fairly private, well-equipped/maintained, and great communication. Do a lot or a little! ;-) Thanks!

This place is amazing, always something to do. Great place to spend a week or long weekend. The kids loved it, never bored, and even some firsts for them. If you're looking for a quiet retreat on the lake, you couldn't find a better spot. Host even arranged return of an expensive charger I left.

We enjoyed fishing, swimming and family time. Being right on the water was great. The only thing I would recommend is investing in another mattress for the master bedroom. Other than that we enjoyed our stay. My son kept saying he wished we lived there! So we may have to go back again.

We stayed for 5 days. The house was equipped with everything you could possibly need. All we needed to do was buy food. The kitchen was stocked with many extras which you normally would have to bring with you including all sorts of spices, sugar, coffee and creamer. a Keurig in the kitchen was a nice extra. Even the coffee pods were provided. The beds were comfortable. The bathrooms were fully stocked with toilet paper (and not the cheap kind) plus tissues throughout the house which isn't often provided. The internet worked well and there were a few nice large flat screen TV's. The view outside was beautiful and peaceful. Because we were there during the week, the lake was empty. We really enjoyed kayaking on this small lake. The water looked very clean. Manning is about a 10 mile drive. There are some nice restaurants there along with grocery stores, Walmart, CVS, etc. We had dinner 2 times at Fayz on the waterfront. What a nice surprise that was. Delicious southern style cooking. the catfish was delicious as was the ribs & fried chicken. and very reasonably priced. We also spent a day in Charleston which was 1.5 hours away. Our host & hostess was very responsive to any questions we had. And you can see how much TLC they put into this house. Whether you are a couple or a family with kids, this house is perfect. You will not be disappointed.

Perfect spot for R&R!

This was one of my favorite stays to date! It was so quiet, calm, and relaxing! This home checked all of our boxes. It was decorated perfectly, lots to do and I LOVED sitting on her porch in the morning with my coffee and breakfast! There was lots offered here in this home from games and entertainment to the little touches like Toiletries (even tho we brought our own) and kitchen supplies, and comfy beds. We played a lot of pool and darts! The lake was so quiet! I especially loved laying in the hammock with a book. We were here after a long week visiting family and it was the perfect spot for some good old fashioned R&R! Thanks a million for a perfect stay!

We were very pleased with the Lake House. It was perfect for our long weekend vacation. Absolutely beautiful location. Very detailed check-in/out instructions, clean house, quiet area and the owner Lisa was pleasant and very responsive. There's all kinds of fun stuff to do (bike, fish, fire pit, hike, kayak, peddle boat, etc.) Did I mention the awesome 60-game old school cabinet arcade game? Will 100% return the next time we head to SC!

Fishing trip at Santee Cooper

Fishing trip at Santee Cooper

The property was comfortable and quiet, good lighting outside at night, turn around room for boat on trailer, plenty of hot water, pool table, darts, video machine etc. 3 bedroom 2 bath, washer dryer, full size fridge with ice maker, big screen tv in two rooms with netflix etc, Nice view of lake, only drawback for us was discovering we had no direct access to lake Marion from the boat dock at the house, there are plenty of boat ramps near by but once ur boat is in the water on Marion you cannot get to dock at house, you must put in at the end of that branch of water To get to dock. Not a major isssue just had to work around it.

Relaxing getaway

Relaxing getaway

This cabin is right on a lake and offers guests the opportunity to do everything or nothing! We spent many hours reading and relaxing on the porch or fishing off the property’s dock. If you have a boat there are nearby launches directly into Lake Marion. The cabin itself has all the comforts of home, including very nice toiletries. Lisa and John have thought of everything to make your stay welcoming and comfortable. It is clean with updated baths and a tiny but user-friendly kitchen. The location is within a 2-hour drive of Charleston, Folly Beach and, of course, Santee. A very nice area to visit with a good balance of activities to appeal to almost everyone. The owners are accessible but not overbearing and were lovely to work with. Many thanks for a great week!

We enjoyed our stay. The cabin was well stocked. Our grands really liked the pool table , dart board and the video games. The one negative was the circuit breaker. Anytime you used the microwave you had to turn off other things .
