This is a great place to unwind, relax and enjoy some peace and quiet. I would have given this 5 stars if a few things were different. We are not streamers, so if our other guest were not we would have been without football. Thatâs a game changer for us. The grill was tricky but after some time we got it going. There was no propane in the upstairs outside fire table, so we were not able to enjoy that feature. It would be beneficial to invest in a little better dining table, this one was very wobbly and the leaf was not level making it uncomfortable for dining and even game playing. Overall this is a great spot for gathering.
We absolutely loved our stay at the lake house! It was beautiful and peaceful; a great escape from the everyday chaos of life. We will definitely be back!
We wanted to have some much needed relaxation and wanted to disconnected from the hustle and bustle of our busy lives. We chose Lake Wateree because we wanted to feel like we were away from the city. Timeout on Tallow was scenic and quiet. We were able to connect to nature, as well as with one another.
This was such a great get away for our whole family. The location is very secluded and quiet. The views from the upper porch are amazing. The house was loaded with everything we needed. The dock and pier provided hours and hours of entertainment for our kids, and lots of great fishing when they weren't swimming. The few items we did need were found at the local gas station. The lake is relatively quiet. A few boats here and there, but not an all day race on the water. Everyone was disappointed we were leaving. We will definitely try to book this house again.
Check-in was great and able to walk into lake house once we got there. We really enjoyed our stay at the lake house. Sitting on the bottom patio gave us a beautiful view of the lake. While sitting on the top porch you felt like you were on the water. It was easy to walk to the pier. The rooms were beautiful and comfortable. We had a great stay at the lake house. Loved the upstairs and down stair kitchen facilities.
Excellent rental!. Itâs tucked away in a very nice and private location. Centrally located on the lake. Beautiful big water, main channel view. Owners have done a great job getting this place set up. The host communicated very promptly. We will be going back.
The view from the house is just lovely! Itâs very well decorated and the bed downstairs is one of the most comfortable weâve ever had on a vacation. The ac works great (which Iâm so thankful for considering it was 100 degrees during our stay). It was so nice sitting on the porch upstairs. The water was very warm this time of year but we were able to float around the dock and make the best of it. Unfortunately the washer didnât work while we were there which was a little inconvenient but the housekeeper came to help us out with a load of laundry during our stay (thank you so much!) (and someone was there to repair it as we were heading out). I loved the location but it is far from everything so plan ahead! And thereâs no cell service anywhere around the house for miles. Please donât let anything I said deter you from staying here. It really is beautiful. We just had a couple of unlucky things happen during our stay that were beyond anyoneâs control. Communication was great with the owner and she was as helpful as she could be with our needs! Thank you!
Overall, property is nice. Great (mostly) screened in porch on top floor. Property was fairly clean and location was quiet. We did have an issue during our visit, which was addressed promptly.
Lovely lakeside retreat, with huge screened balcony and incredible views of main channel lake. Lots of bird-watching (including an osprey nest in the yard), and lake frontage. We really enjoyed our long weekend and will return!
Sylvia is a great host and her home is OUTSTANDING! The view and yard are magnificent, along with an incredible vaulted ceiling screened in porch, and a covered outdoor living room with all the makings for outdoor family fun. We played a "ring" game and corn hole, and sitting around a table out on the dock, enjoying the lake views. The evening was capped with a roaring fire on the lawn at the fire pit set-up that included seating all around. It was the perfect setting to celebrate my daughter's graduation from the University of South Carolina. We, also, enjoyed the Lake Retreat for dinner, just a few miles down the road. In addition to a great outdoor setting, the inside of the house was clean and cozy and very comfortable. Two bedrooms in the main house and a large bedroom suite with kitchen, table and hang out area with TV downstairs with slider doors to outdoor living room. I am a super host on a competing house rental site and have stayed in countless rentals and Sylvia's place is one of our favorites. We hope to return.
Had a great time on our second trip to this property. Best view on the lake, quiet neighborhood, relaxing, caught over 100 catfish from yard and dock. Looking forward to returning in July.
Awesome rental. The location is on the main lake only about 1/2 mile from a nice boat ramp. It has an extremely nice dock to fish from and tie the boat up at. The yard is almost flat so there are no stairs to get down to the water. The house and yard are immaculate. Well furnished all over. It's at the end of a nice driveway so no one happens by accidentally. Private and quite. 10 out of 10 in my oppinion. It's not a cheap built rental cabin, this is a killer house and location. Loved it.
