Peaceful and Clean

This home is situated in a very peaceful neighborhood. It was very clean and had little things that made it great like the snack tray and the K-cups. The fenced yard was great for our fur baby.

The Perfect Getaway

Stayed at Kindred Spirits Retreat while mu husband and I looked at properties. A beautiful place to stay. The owner was so helpful and bent over backwards to insure our stay was perfect. Would rent from him again in a heartbeat. A dog lover to boot!

Great Lake getaway home!

The property is exactly as listed. Very cute decor, comfy beds and a modern look and feel inside. E wet detail was attended to and the host supplied the essentials in the kitchen and bathrooms which was great. Mike was very easy to reach and checked in a few times to ensure the stay was going well. The home was very clean, had a good view of the lake and just one street over you get an amazing sunrise view of the lake. The fenced in backyard was perfect for my dogs. The screened in porch is quaint and the neighborhood is quiet. Check in and check out we’re a breeze! Would recommend!

Access

Overall, our stay was very quiet, peaceful and enjoyable. But I learned a valuable lesson when considering access to rentals. In this case my husband & I, both being over 70 yrs old could not access the property using the proper back door due to no handrails for assistance. We did manage to use the back deck entrance with an amount of problems, but loading & re-loading was difficult.

Family Visit

We wanted a property that was close to family and driving distance to our favorite beach, Folly beach. The property is nestled near the lake, golf, State parks, I95 and great dining options. We had dinner at the Lake House and the food was outstanding. The property was updated, clean and comfortable. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a nice relaxing atmosphere.

Beautiful home at Lake Marion

Michael's home is just a few miles off I-95 coming from the south and just over a mile to get back on the highway. It sits one house from the lake and is beautifully remodeled. Michael the host is extremely helpful and very responsive. The home meets everything in the description and more. It's a large home with a fully fenced yard. We came with two dachshund puppies and and an adult dachshund and we felt very safe that there was no way they would be able to wander out of the yard. We only used one bedroom but the master has a large en suite full bath and there are two other bedrooms that share a bath. The kitchen, dining and living area are also large, warm and inviting with new appliances. We loved the between-the-glass patio door blinds. They are fabulous. The furniture and matress are very comfortable and the internet is great. Of course we came yesterday in early February but I think this would be a great place to stay when the weather is warmer on the largest lake in SC. Thank you Michael, looking forward to staying here again!
