Lake Wateree Waterfront - Large Family House

SarahRating, 5 stars9 months ago

Loved our stay! Plenty of room for 4 families (cousins that grew up together!) and our kids. The older kids loved the game room with pool and ping pong, & the kayaks & paddleboards. Nice to have life jackets for our use! The younger kids loved playing in huge grassy yard, hammock swinging, kayaking, and building forts in the "kids" TV room (w/ foosball table and three twin beds). There was so much space inside and outside to hang out with our large family. Many places to sit, and floor space for two babies to roam. Kitchen was well stocked with most things you should need. Beautiful setting, and the adults loved sitting on the screened porches, chairs by the fire pit and admiring the peaceful lake and sunsets. Well stocked with towels, and some beach towels too. Owner was easy to communicate with and flexible on check-in and check-out times, which was appreciated with the chaos of herding kids! There are a LOT of stairs, which wasn't an issue for us, but something to note.
