Would have been a lot better if there was a hurricane off the coast which hindered our time on the water

We arrived at the lake house. What an amazing view of Lake Marion! No problems entering the property or the house itself. Plenty of parking for our 3 vehicles. The location is VERY convenient to Santee and I-95. Once in the house, our expectations were exceeded. The expansive porch was perfect for hanging out and gazing at the lake. The dock provided ample room for fishing, although those fish had other ideas about being caught. The house itself had ample room for our 6 adults and two children. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and cookware and items like a garlic press. Well, I like to cook. And We found enough counter space for our stuff. Maybe a beverage fridge would be nice, but instead we loaded our coolers with ice. Bring a kayak and you can launch from the beach We should have!! Instead, we rented a pontoon boat 1/2 day from a nearby Marina in Santee. The house is a 10-15 minute drive . We even roasted marshmallows at the fire pit for some delicious s’mores… ample wood supply. I can’t wait to return soon for another lake stay. Our host was quick with return texts to any questions we needed to ask. I would highly recommend a respite at this lake home for fun fun fun! 👍

My family and I enjoyed staying at the Lakefront Retreat on Lake Marion. Mark was super to work with. We had fun fishing and swimming. We can’t wait to go back!

It was much more beautiful than it appears outside, the bugs are horrible this time of year but like I was warned there harmless. I booked this house because of size and location and the hot tub which I found out had been removed and the app hadn't been updated. That would be my only complaint. Needed that for the weekend!

Well first impressions when driving into the property I was embarrassed for my family to see the outside of the house which was covered with mayflies and that might just be a two or three week thing. I thought maybe the owner would have had the house pressure washed if they had been there and seen that. It didn't seem to bother the family after they came in and seen how nice the inside was very nice living room with big TV very nice kitchen nice size bathrooms the bedrooms were very small that didn't matter the beds were smaller than we thought they were supposed to be. The listing said a hot tub which there wasn't. Refrigerator wasn't very clean. As much as they charge for a cleaning fee that place should be spotless. Everyone seem to have a good time and it didn't seem to bother them except for the very small beds they had trouble sleeping probably won't rent this property again.

Great location on Lake Marion. Dock is set up for fishing and we caught a few big ones. House itself is exactly as described. Maybe not the Ritz, but it's Lake Marion. It's perfect for what it is. Very nice screened in porch looking out over the water. Almost a low country feel to the property and views. About 5 min from I-95 and 10 min from Santee Food Lion. Bedrooms were comfortable and the kitchen was equipped appropriately. Great location for a golf weekend as well - plenty of decent courses within about 20 - 30 min. Great spot for a quick get away.

Great stay, wonderful location on the water.

House was amazing. Clean and had a great location. We caught fish if the dock, boat ramp was nice, overall we will be back.
