Disgusting! Worst experience I have ever had with a rental property!
This home was filthy . Roaches both dead and alive throughout the house. Dead bugs, dirt and dust thick in every window sill. Hole in bathroom ceiling with water leaking out that required a towel be constantly down and replaced to soak it up. Upstairs bedroom had shredded candy wrapper paper all over it. There were large dark stains in carpet and on outdoor furniture. There was broken furniture, broken small appliances and it looked like the house had not been cleaned in months. I reached out in numerous occasions to Vacassa local staff number and was never contacted by anyone and only responded to by text after each contact letting me know that someone from the local office would be getting back with me. We own a home in this neighborhood and this was hat we had hoped to be one of many times in the future we would book this rental for overflow company . Obviously this will never happen. We were humiliated that we had rented it for guests this time. If I were the home owner I would be mortified to find my home was rented out in this condition.

Was expecting something better for the price .
Very hard to find address, roads are very narrow and easy to get lost . The deck was kinda dangerous for little kids.

Great family lake house
We really enjoyed our stay. This was our third visit to Lake Murray and third different house. We had four adults two small children. Two of our teenagers came and stayed overnight one night. We only live about an hour and 45 minutes from Lake Murray. The only complaint I would say would be the cookware. It definitely could be updated. There is a lot of it there but not a lot that you can use. A lot of stuff that doesn’t have the nonstick so things were wanting to stick to the pans. The grill didn’t work very well. One side would only really get hot . There was a bad board on the dock that was sticking up. The kids kept tripping on so we had to lay a towel on top of it. It would’ve been nice to have had TVs in the rooms. The master bedroom had a TV but we couldn’t get it to work and the TV in the upstairs loft was only for DVDs, and there was very minimum of those. The teenagers would have liked to have had a TV and the bunkbed room as well. We are just a family that goes to bed watching TV. And one of the days was quite rainy and would been nice to have laid in bed and watched TV but the only one that seem to work was in the living room. But other than those few things he was a great place to stay!

Nice stay
We had a great time being right on the lake and really loved that we could also bring our family dog. The house is older, but very comfy and cozy. It was perfect for a weekend on the lake. Plenty of room and the porch was really nice for having morning coffee. We also enjoyed using the grill for dinner. Great area. Would book again.

Perfect location for my family
I have family that has a vacation house close there so it was the perfect place to be able to meet up with them at all times. However there were a few things that were wrong with the rental. They really need to go in the place and maintain a little bit better the couches are hard to sit on really worn out the king size bed was hard as a rock the water in the shower was kind a hard to turn on. No hand railing or light in the hallway coming down the stairs which is kind of dangerous. It just really needs some work done there. With that being said it is a beautiful location and we had a wonderful time

Fun week, comfortable house, some minor issues
The house was big enough to give everyone space and privacy, the set up was good, and the house stayed cool and comfortable in the 90+ degree heat. The house was cleaned and they provided soaps (liquid hand soaps and bath stuff) and clean towels. The kitchen was stocked but missing some things we needed. There were nice places outside to lounge and fish -- we spent a lot of time on the dock and under the two trees which provided nice shade. We also spent a lot of time under the covered porch. Negatives -- the house needs some maintenance and upgrades. The deck had has a lot of overall construction concerns - we stayed in covered porch area. The dock was mostly good but there is one rotted board and the board attached to the latter is coming up a bit. Overall, it did not feel unsafe, but does need some maintenance. We had issues with a plethora of ants in the upstairs bathroom coming in a whole/crack in the ceiling. We texted on Wednesday and they sent pest control out on Friday. The property is definitely full of tiny ants (we brought many home in our cars), but this is expected on a wooded property. Overall the property and view are beautiful we were comfortable and we really enjoyed relaxing there all week. We rented a tritoon from Lake Murray Rentals and docked it at the dock at the house. That was a good experience... we recommend it!

Beautiful Atmosphere Older Home
The atmosphere was beautiful. The home and property were a little dingy and old. The lake was lovely, but in order to rent anything you had to drive quite a ways. The owners do not allow you to use any of their water toys at all. They are just locked up in the basement for you to see through the windows. With the lack of places to rent the owners may want to consider allowing those renting the place to use some of their equipment as part of the rental. Also there was internet, but the Roku was missing and you couldn't really use the TV.

Quiet and serene
We stayed at the lake house for my daughter's graduation and for Mother's Day. It was on a very quiet side of the lake which was perfect. The house was clean and well stocked as far as towels and linens are concerned. There was a total of 6 of us, and the home had plenty of room for us. Thank you for letting us unwind and relax!

Great spot
We were in the area for a family wedding in Lexington. It was a great spot for family members to gather around the scheduled nearby wedding festivities. Multiple sleeping and baths with laundry was very helpful!

Nice place to stay.
We were a group of guys down for the Masters Tournament. It is a good location and property for that. Location is somewhat remote so wouldn't recommend it for someone looking for nightlife but for us it was good. Liked the bbq and large deck as well as the lake location.

Very nice house!!
The house was awesome. The house was super clean. I did not like the master bedroom carpet. Too many stains. It is quite a ride to stores and restaurants. The views were spectacular. We moved here from New York and needed a place to stay and the house met all our needs.

Great property, just needs a few easy improvements
First I want to start by saying this is a great property, and we really enjoyed the big yard, dock and layout of the home. There were 8 of us that stayed and enough room for everyone. There were just a few things that could be improved upon to make this a 5 star stay. There were no beach/swimming towels in the home and we only had 8 bath towels, so we had to go purchase beach towels. It seemed like since we are on the lake that would be a good investment for the owners to provide for the guests. There were no extra pillow cases for the extra pillows. I would highly recommend replacing the king mattress, or at the least, putting a foam topper on it and also buying higher quality pillows. By the second night my husband and I had to go purchase an air mattress to be able to sleep comfortably. The kids (15, 16. & 20) also complained about the twin mattresses. One of them even chose to sleep in the couch instead of the bed. The queen mattress upstairs was great. In the kitchen, the blender didn’t work, there was not a potato peeler and I think the water filter on the fridge needs to be replaced, because the water barely came out. I would also recommend leaving a few more trash bags and some cleaning supplies…. A pen and paper would be great too. The thermostat kept resetting to 83, which could have been a program that another guest may have set. Once we figured that out the house temperature stayed very comfortable. Over all we really did enjoy our stay and the home. It was just hard having 6 out of 8 people tried and sore from not sleeping well at night. If those issues were addressed we would for sure book again.

Serviceable place
Nice dock area. Kitchenware not the best. Mismatched serviceware. Hodgepodge of glasses cups, serving spoons etc No large bowls for salads etc. Well worn utensils but you can get the job done. Living room couch has no back cushions. Mismatched furniture. Could use mattress replacement. Overall clean. We were late renting so choices were limited.
