Very secluded and family friendly, yet close to everything. Roughly 3 miles by boat from Clemson and Death Valley (about six miles by car), it boasts over an acre and a half of pristine woodland. There are three docks on property, the largest installed new in July of 2021 and two smaller to chase changing water levels. Total of six bedrooms, plus a murphy bed in the game room makes this ideal for a laid back family get-together.

The space
The main house was renovated in late 2020 / early 2021 with the removal of popcorn ceilings and old wallpaper, brand new kitchen appliances, huge new TVs (including an 82" 4K in the great room/dining room), front load washer/dryer, new mattresses and linens, dual hood grill, ceiling fans, bathroom fixtures, paint, etc - before putting it on the market for rentals. For most renters, the highlight is the great/dining room with a massive 13' long bespoke oak table and huge windows overlooking the water. The attached screened in gazebo (directly off the breakfast nook, with benches and a large table) is ideal for quiet work, reading, or just sipping wine and listening to the sounds of the woods and the lake at night. Multiple decks with rocking chairs and tables, as well as the fire pit surrounded by Adirondack chairs make for a great place to relax and catch up with friends and family.

In May of 2021, the upstairs and downstairs of the three level detached garage was professionally renovated to allow for two more bedrooms, a full bathroom, second laundry area, and a kitchenette. Downstairs (below) is a billiards/ entertainment room with 8' oversized Olhausen pool table, huge leather sectional couch, and a massive 85" 4K Samsung TV. In total, the bedrooms are as follows:

1 King Master Bedroom with Bath (upstairs, main house)
1 Queen Bedroom (upstairs, main house)
1 Bedroom with 2 twin beds and 2 trundle pull out twin beds (upstairs, main house)
1 Bedroom with both a King and Queen Bed (downstairs, main house)
1 King Bedroom (new area above garage)
1 Queen Bedroom (new area above garage)

In addition, there is a queen murphy bed in the gameroom (main house) and the foldout sectional in the billiard hall (below garage).

In addition to the three docks on the property, this rental comes with two sit-in kayaks (rated up to 275 lbs), two Stand-Up Paddleboards (adult), several inflatables, and some basic fishing gear for lake exploration (at your own risk, of course). Stand up paddleboards in the quiet of dawn is a nearly religious experience. If you bring your own boat, there is a landing less than 1/2 mile away (at Lawrence Bridge), but you can leave it tied to any the docks.

One negative worth mentioning to everyone is that the property is on an incline to the water, so there are a lot of stairs and the driveway is very steep. If you are unable to negotiate a staircase without a railing, this might not be the best property for you. Please take caution, particularly with the eldery or those who can't traverse stairs.
