We had a large family group come in for Marine graduation and had a wonderful stay. This home is beautiful and was furnished, clean and welcoming. Mrs.Betty was so kind and thoughtful before, during and after our stay and was always available if we needed her. I’m so thankful to her for the time spent in her home celebrating my son’s accomplishment and visiting with family. We would highly recommend staying here at her lovely home.

Everything that you need in one spot

This is a halfway point between my daughter in Raleigh and us in central Florida. The house was spacious, the kitchen was huge and well equipped, and the neighborhood was very peaceful. It was a short drive to restaurants and groceries. There is a dock on the river for fishing. Its everything that you need in one spot!

Relaxing with the dolphins

We had a great time here; kitchen was plenty big enough to host our family, the dock was phenomenal, and a small pod of dolphins swam by every single morning just after sunrise. Amazing!

River House

Walking into this house felt exactly like home. We loved the beautiful property and the dock! We spent most of our time on the porch and fishing on the dock. This was the perfect spot for us to stay for our son’s graduation. The hosts are very welcoming and kind and helpful! If we are ever in South Carolina again, we will most definitely be staying here.
