Peaceful paradise on Lake Murray

Relax with the whole family at this peaceful place to stay. You will feel miles away from the busy world, but only a short drive to downtown Columbia . Just 25 minutes to the Gamecock stadium. Make yourself at home and recharge with amazing views and the quiet sounds of nature! Great lounging areas for the whole family and plenty of beds . The lake is perfection and the sun is always shining ! There is a brand new dock and easy lake-entry ladder for the 2026 season .
The space.
The house has two great lounging areas . A large den with sectional in the lower part, and another den in the upper part . 5 full bedrooms with 3 full baths . There is a set of bunk beds off the kitchen . There isn’t a door, but great place for kids to have their own space, but still be close . There is an enclosed porch with ping pong table and great views of the lake . Great fire pit with chairs for enjoying the night and roasting s’mores .

Lovely family gathering!

Great time with family! Very welcoming and comfortable with plenty of amenities. We loved the back porch and hanging out on the dock. Hope we can return in the future and would recommend!

Peaceful getaway for family

We had a lovely stay at the lake with our large mix of family of both little kids and adults. It was the perfect space to get away but be close enough to the city of Columbia. Everything was easy, and the property and home was clean and well taken care of. It felt as though it was truly a home away from home. The backyard and beautiful view were a perfect addition to our time there as well! Would stay here again!

Absolutely wonderful

Hands down best vacation house I’ve ever stayed it. It had everything we needed and anything extra we need was just up the road at a store. Great location, amazing views and the house was just perfect.

Wedding Week

We were in town for my son's wedding and this house was PERFECT for our family. Great open floorplan was perfect for socializing and the multiple seating areas were great! That part of the lake is peaceful and serene. The outdoor seating options were ideal as well. The kitchen was well stocked. The house was spotless. We had high expectations coming in and this exceeded them all. Thank you

This was a great setting for a multigenerational family vacation. Kids, parents and grandparents had fun. The house was accommodating with plenty of sleeping spaces, a well equipped kitchen, and water fun "toys" (kayaks, fishing poles). Check-in was easy, Wi-Fi access was good and the panoramic lake view was spectacular from the porch. We also appreciated the promptness of our host's responses to our questions.

Lake House Jewell

What a great place to stay with lots of family, and right on the water. We were able to enjoy plenty of seating both inside and out on the deck. Had weather permitted, we would have enjoyed roasting marshmallows over a fire. Convenient, quiet, beautiful, and spacious.

Serene and beautiful get-away

This property is wonderful in every way. The neighborhood is quiet and beautiful. Lake access is only steps away and there is plenty of good quality outdoor seating. The home is spacious and tasteful, the kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals for a group. The homeowner is friendly and generous with equipment such as fishing gear and kayaks. My group hopes to return again next year!

River Rat - Memorial Day

We couldn’t have asked for more! The host was super accommodating and the house was amazing. Having access to our own boat ramp and dock was perfect. The house is located in a cove that makes loading and unloading easy. The house was well stocked with all we needed. Our group of 9 had more than enough room and everything we needed to make it a comfortable stay. 5 Star stay for sure!!
