Livin' the Lake Life! Home w/dock/gazebo-Sleeps 8

Welcome to our enchanting two-story lakefront retreat, where the best of both worlds await you! Nestled amidst tranquil wooded surroundings, our cozy haven offers a perfect blend of serenity and excitement with its private dock and gazebo overlooking picturesque Lake Murray in South Carolina.

Discover the allure of our spacious 2,238 square foot lakeside home, tucked away in a peaceful, protected-water cove, yet conveniently located just 3 miles away from essential amenities like grocery stores, dining options, and shopping outlets. Immerse yourself in the calming ambiance of lakeside living while still being within easy reach of city attractions.

But the real magic begins as you step inside our inviting home. With room to accommodate up to 8 guests across 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, every inch of our retreat reflects comfort and charm. From the luxurious Master Suite with its king bed and private ensuite bathroom to the spacious Rose Room and the interconnected Blue and Twin Rooms, relaxation awaits you at every turn.

Indulge in the joys of lake life as you explore the wonders of Lake Murray. Whether you're into water sports, boating, or simply soaking up the sun, our private dock provides easy access to endless adventures on the water. And for those who prefer to stay ashore, a leisurely stroll along the lake path offers glimpses of wildlife amid the natural beauty of the surroundings.

Inside, our well-appointed kitchen beckons culinary enthusiasts with its array of amenities, from modern appliances to ample cookware and utensils. Gather around the dining table for a hearty meal or enjoy alfresco dining on the patio or waterside on the gazebo while marveling at the stunning lake views.

Evenings are made for relaxation, and our cozy Living Room is the perfect spot to unwind with your favorite shows on the flat-screen ROKU TV or indulge in some quality time with family and friends over board games, cards, and puzzles. And with complimentary WiFi at your fingertips, staying connected has never been easier.

As the day comes to a close, savor the breathtaking sunsets from the comfort of the gazebo. Whatever your heart desires, our lakefront retreat promises an unforgettable getaway filled with tranquility, adventure, and cherished memories.

Come experience the magic of The Lake House – where every moment is a celebration of life's simple pleasures. So that your well-deserved get-away is exactly as you hope, please know that our vacation lake home is on a lovely quiet cul-de-sac, on a private road, and the 3 other families on the cul-de-sac are permanent residents. As such, our home is best suited for groups and families who are looking for a relaxed gathering rather than a party-house atmosphere.

Amazing Lake House

First off this house is one of the cutest I’ve vacationed in. It had a home feel to it. The lake is a big bonus. The host literally had everything we needed and more. She even left us a welcome gift with snacks and water and a handwritten welcome card. It was the perfect touch.I would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful property. Great location. Tons of amenities.

I've stayed at many Vrbos and this one BY FAR had the most amenities I've ever encountered. Seriously, it had everything you could think of needing. The property was beautiful. We were there visiting our son at USC and it was an easy drive to campus & the stadium. Check in/out process was simple. Communication was excellent. Sara made the whole experience really easy. Would definitely recommend and would love to come back for another stay!

Best host ever!

Sara was the best host I have had so far in all my VRBO stays. Excellent welcome basket, but more important she had the freezer full of ice for us, lots of excellent extra for enjoying the house, the lake, and the local area. The house is luxurious and super comfortable, there were interesting books, lots of channels, kitchen was super user friendly, and super convenient to local grocery (less than 2 miles away).

Great House on Lake Murray

My family and I, (7 Adults) stayed 3 nights for my nephew’s wedding at a venue just 3 miles down Highway 6. I can’t rave more about the accommodations and ease of everything. The house is well supplied and there are detailed instructions for everything. Being February, we didn’t use the dock very much, but it would be awesome in warmer weather. Location is very convenient, only about 20-25 minutes from downtown Columbia. We booked Ubers to and from the wedding venue with less than 20 minute waits. Highly recommend if you are looking for a lake house for your family to enjoy.

Charming and beautiful house with everything we needed. We had a wonderful family stay! Loved the fact the dock is shaded and has a covered pergola with ceiling fans. Many docks are too hot and in full sun. This one is perfect.

Birthday weekend

Our weekend at the lake house could not have gone smoother! Sara was extremely fast to reply to any questions and the house far exceeded expectations. Every "i" was dotted and "t" crossed to make it as comfortable for us as possible. All the way down to the water bottles and snack basket on the counter when we arrived. The house was very close to everything you could need. We rented a pontoon boat from Better Boats(6 mins away) and had a blast! The deer and other wildlife were icing on the cake for a relaxing trip. Thank you!!!

Owner is Nicest lady ever!

Property was as described or better. We came for a poker run, brought a 34 center console. Driveway accommodated the trailer, dock accommodated the boat. House was extremely clean, dock had a Gazebo which I assumed was grandfathered in, because it was rare on the lake to see that. Will plan on coming back. This is my first VRBO experience and so far it was great.
