Lake Murray Escape with private boat launch & dock

Peaceful retreat on the water with private boat launch and dock. The dock has a great area for seating and another area for swimming and laying out. There are also two kayaks available for use in a quiet placid cove. The boat ramp allows for quick access if you chose to bring your own boat. There is a fire pit for sitting by the lake and roasting marsh mellows! Quiet neighborhood and only minutes away from big water and Dreher Island State Park. Perfect cove for paddle boarding and kayaking!

Beautiful and quiet location on the lake, loved it!

We really enjoyed our stay. It was clean and quiet on the lake with amazing views. Contact with the owner was easy and helpful. Looking for a great location to stay close to Dreher island and being on lake Murray, this is it. Thanks again and hope to come back.

Perfect family vacation home!

Beautiful views and literally everything you could possibly want in a vacation spot! It was certainly a home away from home. High reviews from a die-hard Gamecock!! ♥️🖤

Graduation Weekend

We rented this home for our daughter's graduation weekend. It had plenty of room for my family and we felt comfortable during our stay. We enjoyed the lake, hot tub, and porch cat! Our host was kind, accommodating, and responded quickly. We would definitely book again!

Great location. Great house. Terrible weather. Gas grill was out of propane. Otherwise, all really good. Loved the porch cat and the dock.

July 4th Vacation 2025

We had an amazing time with our children and grandchildren! Having the boat launch and dock right there on site was perfect for us. The kids could swim whenever and we could go in and out on the boat all day every day. There is also a restaurant/gas place for the boat 4 minutes from the house dock to fill up. The house was exactly as advertised and clean. The host was easy to contact, and he made the home feel like home by allowing its full use of all amenities. It felt more like visiting a friend’s home than a rental.
