We loved our family getaway for the weekend. The house is cozy and beautiful with plenty of room. Linda was very helpful and answered all of my questions.
We enjoyed the property and amenities...it was almost perfect for our group and dog. My only disappointment was that the HVAC unit couldn't keep up with the midday heat. We had it set on 73 and it would creep up to 80 during the day. The nights were pleasant as the HVAC unit kicked in and kept up once the sun set.
Beautiful place to stay and have fun in the lake. This was a once in a lifetime trip for us to be in this area but we would definitely stay here again if we have a reason to find ourselves at Lake Martin again. If you find yourself wanting Mexican food while youâre there, Burrito Corner is a cute little Mexican restaurant in an unexpected location. Highly recommended!
This property was exactly as described. It was everything we needed for a family vacation. The driveway is intimidating, but it is not as scary as it looks! We would definitely stay at this property again.
Would definitely stay again. With the dock being back off the channel it's a perfect place to overnight and leave the boat in the water without having to be concerned about it taking a beating from the wake of other boats.
If you get an opportunity to stay here, book it. It will not disappoint.
We were looking for a pet-friendly place to getaway and unwind and this place was exactly what we needed. We spent three days there and only left once to pick up dinner from a local restaurant one night. Local food options are only a short drive away if you don't feel like cooking. If you want to grill you can use the gas or charcoal grill and the outside space is a great place for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The dock had plenty of room for three of us to fish and I caught a nice bass the first morning. Swimming was easy with deep water, a ladder and stairs for our dog to use. The house is perfectly situated with minimal to no boat traffic. Several reviews mention the steep driveway and it was not an issue for us, even in the rain. The owner was extremely responsive and a pleasure to work with. The only issue we had was with one of the bedrooms having an unpleasant order. It did not affect our stay and the owner was quick to respond. I would highly recommend this home and we hope to return soon.
Bonus: There were hummingbird feeders outside the kitchen window and by the gazebo and hummingbirds EVERYWHERE! We loved watching them playfully fly around the house.
Great layout for us. My daughter's family had one side of the house with 3 bedrooms and a bathroom and we had the other side with a couples tub in the master bath. Great deck and covered boat dock. Everything we needed was provided.We're going back again if we can. Excellent vacation location, property, and stay!
good location for local restaurants and points of interest. very nice, attractive rental. quiet and comfortable. living room, dining and kitchen areas larger than pictures. bedrooms and baths are good. large fenced grass area for dogs to roam. beautiful view from the porch overlooking the lake finger inlet. we enjoyed our stay. note: very steep concrete driveway. full breaking descending. front wheel drive vehicles will have a challenge climbing up.
Went down for a week of fishing with grandchildren. This place was perfect!! Easy access to our boat from the home. It was very clean and decorated to fit the lake mood. Itâs stocked better than most places I have stayed with linens, dishes and cookware. We will definitely book this one again!
Beautiful property and house. Pleanty of room for my family of 7 plus an infant. I loved that the deck as it was completely fenced for the dogs and 1 year old.
We stayed here last summer and were so impressed we stayed again! Linda is phenomenal! Her home is always clean and so welcoming. Itâs in a perfect location for all our boating activities. Canât want to come back next year!
Our stay was wonderful and was perfect for what we were looking forâŠa true getaway. The house was lovely and the owners were great to work with and were highly responsive when an issue arose. We would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a lake stay in a charming home.
6 Adults - what a cozy and roomy place! If you enjoy the outdoors , as we do, the back deck is very inviting with plenty of seating, overlooking Lake Martin under a lit Gazebo, and for the fall a gas table fountain. They supply plenty of propane for the grill. Just a few steps to the lake for fishing or just sitting in all the provided chairs. The home is very clean and neat! Open kitchen with bar and everything you would need. Open living room with plenty of seating , dining area with seating for 6 and wood burning fireplace. All bathrooms were clean - nice size bedrooms. The family has decided we want to come back for a late spring early summer visit for boating. The host was phenomenal with communication - text or email and she will respond. Thank you Ms.Taylor for having us.
Our yearly "Brother's Weekend" ended up at Lake Martin this year instead of the beach. This place was absolutely perfect for what we needed. More spacious than pics give credit for. Lots of shade & privacy. Very clean. Owner responds within minutes with precise anwers & super nice. Looking forward to staying here again!! Thank you for sharing your little oasis with the Watkins Family !!
Our family lives in South Florida. About 28 years ago some friends of ours built a home on Lake Martin. They invited us up over the summer for a couple years and we got hooked. Lake Martin is our little piece of heaven on earth. It is where I go to recharge. There is just something so peaceful about sitting on the deck and having your morning coffee and just enjoying the great view.
We have had our paradise on the lake for about 20 years. There are so many memories with family and friends that are priceless. My sons enjoy tubing, skiing and wakeboarding. Of course there is always the thrill of jumping off Chimney Rock. Chuck's Marina is a nice little place to get away with friends and enjoy the music and pizza.
We have packed picnic lunches and gone up to Wind Creek State Park or sometimes just pick an island, kick back and relax. In the evening when things quiet down 'the older folks' sometimes just go out for a quiet sunset cruise and admire some of the absolutely gorgeous homes.
We feel very blessed to have our little place on the lake and it is gratifying that we can help other families have wonderful memories also. Our home in Florida is a little over 600 miles from our lake home, a lot of the locals are surprised that we drive so far, but it is worth every mile.
We are located toward the end of a cove. It is quiet and peaceful because there are only a handful of homes past ours. It is safe to swim yet we are just a few minutes from the big water and all the action. A short bat ride to Chuck's Marina, The Ridge Marina, Goat Island and Chimney Rock.
