The place was spotless! The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked. It was nice to have basic things, such as toilet paper, soap, and paper towels, on site. Sixteen local relatives aged 7 through 80 showed up for dinner on the second day. The dining area, kitchen, and porch easily accomodated all of us. It also was nice to have stairs going down to the boat dock - many houses on the lake do not have stairs. The drive into Anderson and Clemson took about 15-20 minutes. ##### Charles C W.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay during thanksgiving at this beautifully updated home. The owners did a great job at remodeling this property (we flip houses and have seen a lot of bad & good jobs). 7 of us slept at the house and my brother and his wife joined us for thanksgiving dinner- ample dining space for all of us! Every pot and pan or utensil you might need was available. We cooked thanksgiving dinner and enjoyed the lake. Definitely will return again. Owners were very quick to respond before our trip, and everything was so easy and renter friendly, we never had to contact the owner at all during our stay. Can’t wait to stay again!

The Cottage has a great view, looking down and out onto the peaceful lake. The cottage is just as the photos represent. The interior is light, cozy and clutter free. The kitchen is well stocked. Great dining options, as there is a 4 top kitchen dinette, a 6 top(or more) dining table and seating outside on a screened in porch. The cottage was down to the dust boards clean! I was very happy! The bedrooms are perfect with nice bedding and comfy mattresses. The master shower is spa like. We were very comfortable at the cottage for our weekend Clemson visit!

Location is perfect for fishing tournaments at Greenpond Landing and event center. You can dock the boat and it's just a short ride by water so no waiting in line for the boat ramp. It's located in a quiet neighborhood. We felt very safe. The screened in back porch was our favorite spot in the early mornings watching the sunrise. The house was very clean and comfortable. The large dining table gave ample seating for us to have other anglers over for dinner. Having the washer and dryer helped us keep all of the stinky fishing clothes washed up and ready for the next day. IYKYK. We highly recommend this property! ##### Robin P.

Nicely redone inside and would like to have this for a second home. Neighborhood a little sketchy but no problems. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### michelle G.
