Top Summer Lake Hotel Reviews

10 Mile View on Lake Murray, SC, Putting Green, Hot Tub, Lake Edge Fire Pit

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay at this lake house. Everything as described. Host very helpful. We enjoyed the putting green and going out on the kayaks. The views across the lake are amazing."

LAKE COTTAGE WITH DECK - 5 Star - 2 kayaks - 40 minutes to Columbia

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful place to relax and unplug for a few days. The weather was extremely hot so just enjoyed looking at beautiful lake homes, local restaurants and a short trip to Columbia for the day. Beautiful property, safe walking area and quiet surroundings. While we didn’t take advantage of the kayaks the the lake is beautiful. Even with construction going on next door we rarely heard anything. Owners are super friendly and great!"

The Turquoise Door in Town of Lexington

8/10 Good

"The kitchen was especially good. It was a small space, but nicely executed. Air conditioning handled the heat wave! A larger couch would’ve helped with seating. There weren’t any closets, but the dressers and hanging racks sufficed. Had zero problems, but it didn’t feel like the nicest area of Lexington."

Lake house on Lake Murray with private dock and boat ramp.

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location beautiful place . The house is very well for families and friends we celebrate my daughter's birthday "

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Lexington by IHG

8/10 Good

"The room was very spacious and clean, except for the sofa that had one cushion with stains all over it. Bathroom was very nice and clean also. Breakfast was no good - all reheated processed food. Pancake machine was out of order, of course. Staff was awkward and quiet."

Lake Days & Cozy Nights | Lake Murray Getaway

10/10 Excellent

"Great place. Tight driveway if you are pulling a boat."

Gilbert Lakefront Retreat w/ Private Dock!

10/10 Excellent

"The property was beautiful, from the home itself inside and out and of course the view was supremely beautiful, the best sunsets and fun to watch all of the activity out on the lake! David was super easy to work with and while we had a couple if hiccups, David handled all easily and quickly to our satisfaction. Very good communication. Also, the home was super clean, which makes me happy! Would visit again and definitely would recommend!"

Quality Inn & Suites Lexington

8/10 Good

"I'd be glad we picked this hotel"

Romantic bungalow on Lake Murray w/cold plunge/hot tub/sauna, gym & dock gazebo

10/10 Excellent

"Such a wonderful and relaxing place to stay to rest and recharge! All of the amenities are such a wonderful bonus to this already beautiful property! It was well maintained, and the host thought of everything you would need to unwind from the day-to-day craziness! We enjoyed our stay and cannot wait to go back again!"
