clean, charming house with plenty of sleeping space for a large group. Owner easy to work with. We used the house while visiting my daughter at Clemson, it worked out great. The separate structure above the garage a huge plus.

We stayed in the property years ago and were glad to return. The kids loved the double deck. The house does need updating. The linens were old and needed refreshing. The dock had some wiring issues and an electrician had to come and shut off power to the dock (a little scary). There were two paddleboards that were advertised, but one was broken (homeowner let me know the day we checked in) and the other one was in really rough shape. We are a large family and it is hard to find a house that accommodates everyone. We did appreciate that about the house. Great location on the lake in a cove, but just needs a little TLC.

This property was very accommodating to our family. There was plenty of space inside the home and the decks of the home provided a good hang out spot for us. Boat dock is also a plus with it being a double decker.

This place was wonderful! The house size was just right and the Retreat over the garage was perfect for my Cousin and young family. We were able to spread out when needed. Sadly the rain altered our plans but we had a chance to play in the water the day before we left. It’s a quiet retreat and a great place for a family reunion!

This property was perfect! Everything about it was exactly as described! Our family was actually in town for my Father’s funeral and all wanted to stay together. It was more than we could have asked for. He was a mountain man who loved to hunt, fish and just be outdoors. He told many stories around campfires so that’s what we did as well. We laughed, cried and just enjoyed being together. The house is beautiful and the lake view is just what he would have wanted. We had a campfire in the fire pit after the funeral and enjoyed each others company. 10/10 recommend this property!

We have a big group of folks gather at this house for Thanksgiving and the Clemson vs. USC game (unfortunate 2022 outcome). The house is well appointed and has a great view of the lake. Plenty of room and beds for all and we enjoyed sitting on the deck and enjoying an adult beverage as well as utilizing the fire pit down near the water.

Awesome lake house
This dog friendly home was perfect for our 4 children and their friends. Northern facing porches were cool and the surrounding trees help cool us when the temperatures soared over 100F.
Terrific access to the lake . Will stay again!

We were a group of 12 for a golf trip. The house and writer's retreat had enough beds for everyone and enough room for everyone to spread out. We did not have enough time to fully enjoy the offerings of the property. I discovered a number of our group wished they had time to fish the lake.
One consistent comment from the group was that with a little TLC the property would be amazing. If we returned to the area the group would stay at The Rock again

The house is beautiful and clean and comfortable. It sleeps a lot more people than we had- which is probably why the daily rate is high. There were things about the property that I would have expected to be better for the price. The TV volume didn’t work in the basement which disappointed the kids and the remotes upstairs stopped working and we don’t know why. The kayaks were missing parts and hard to use because of that. One paddle board was broken. The floats had leaks and most wouldn’t inflate. And we saw some roaches on every level and little caterpillar things on the lower level. Overall the house itself is great and despite the little issues we had a good time!

Beautiful wood structure. Living room furniture needs updating. We had the Pontoon Boat all week. It ran great. 90 hp motor has plenty of power for boat rides and pulling water toys with kids.

This was a near perfect accommodation for our extended family of 13, ranging in age from 14 to 78. Everything was great. Our only criticism involved temperature control in the two houses. The loft in the writer's retreat was too warm and the lowest level in the main house was too cold. Keeping everyone comfortable was a real challenge. Otherwise, it was a great place.

This is a great property with plenty of beds, amazing views and great location. Having said that we have to say the property really needs an update. The furniture in the family room is old and well used. The wraparound deck is great with lots of seating however we were disappointed that we had to clean the tables and chairs before using them. The deck could use a cleaning and painting. The towels were thin and we only had two thin hand towels for 3 bathrooms. Again, easy fix, replace and add towels. With very little effort this could be an excellent property!

House layout was great. The 4 young adults really enjoyed the writers retreat. Cove is quiet with deep, clean warm water. We cooked the entire week and kitchen definitely needs new pots, pans and utensils. If you have elderly guests the house can be a challenge with a very steep driveway and stairs. Overall, everyone loved the spot and we had a great time.

The real appeal of this place is it's fantastic deck and nice outdoor space. The other big plus is a nice amount of full bathrooms, so even with 12+ you've got plenty of showers. The living room, for the potential number of guests is pretty cramped. There are also no usable knives in the kitchen so be sure to bring good knives for cutting and cooking. There is a reasonable prep space, but there is no disposal. So if you are planning on making food from ingredients you'll have to deal with a constantly clogged sink. Also some of the 'beds' in the downstairs are barely beds. The living room couch is big but it's also broken in the middle and sags. So unless you have kids who don't care I'd consider the downstairs to have 3 functional beds. Also recommend bringing a folding table for the outside or to provide some additional seating in the living room.

From the moment we got there till we left it was amazing! Nestled inside a beautiful cove, this lake house was perfect for my entire family! So many beds and places to sleep. Very convenient!
