Another wonderful stay
My wife and I enjoyed another wonderful stay. As always, we pulled our bass boat down and spent our time out on the lake fishing. Our own private boat dock gave us a place to park our boat at night and charge the electronics. The house is fully furnished and very well kept. It is pet friendly and our black lab stays pretty relaxed in this quiet neighbor hood. And as always, Cathy goes above and beyond to make sure you have everything you need and that your stay is perfect. When we visit this area, this is our first choice to stay.

Nice accommodation, pleasant house.
The house was very comfortable for four people. Plenty of room to park. We had two vehicles and two boats, still had room. The dock was very nice. You do need extension cords to charge batteries. The only addition i would make to the house would be dish rags for wiping counters and table, and also curtains in the Bathroom. The weather did not cooperate very well for fishing, but still caught a good number of fish.

Wedding Weekend
This property was perfect for us, and although we didn't get to spend much time there (we were there for our son's wedding weekend), we did enjoy walking down to the dock in the morning and evenings and decompressing a bit. Cathy is truly a gracious host and was excellent in responding to any questions I had before staying and during our stay. We hope we get the chance to stay again soon and highly recommend!!

Terrific Lake Getaway!
The property was exactly as advertised and the perfect size for our family of four plus pooch. There was plenty of space to spread out between the living room and outside patio. We enjoyed the convenience of proximity to the water and use of the dock for the pontoon rental. A side note, the staff at Harbor Lights Marina were great to work with and very service oriented. Our getaway to the lake to end the summer was fantastic with plenty of time spent on and in the water, a trip to downtown Greenville, as well into Hartwell, Lavonia and nearby Royston. We would definitely not think twice, if available, making a return trip to this property in the future.

Felt like home
We loved everything about the house. The dock was amazing and so convenient to have our boat docked there all week. The dock even has a plug in to charge boat batteries. It does require an extension cord, but not an issue. Cathy was so helpful and accommodating. She even offered to pick us up anything from her trip into town. We brought our 2 corgi's with us. The house is set up to be dog friendly. The deck has a gait, dog bowls are provided, and there is even a place to hang leases by the door. Location was great, very quiet and relaxing. Town is not too far away to get groceries. The house was super clean, well stocked, and had linens provided. The bed was super comfortable. The house was just a great place to stay and would highly recommend it. We loved our stay at the Octagon house and would stay there again!!!!!!!!

Octagon house
Wonderful home! We have stayed here several times and love it. No issues and the property owner is great. Very helpful and responsive. She provided a larger crockpot, salt ( which I forgot) and even called to let us know about the local fireworks. House is well stocked and clean, no bugs. Will definitely stay again
