Another 5 star stay
Second time staying and was even better than the first time. Saw multiple black bears down in the hollow was awesome to see! Location can’t be better multiple if not endless things to do around the area during your stay. Host goes above and beyond with things they offer inside the cabin including some tasty s’mores to enjoy around the campfire(wood provided!). Perfect getaway for a relaxing vacation definitely will have to book again!

Relaxing Weekend
This was the second time I have stayed at this property. The cabin is perfect for a couple of guys or a small family who just want to get away from it all. The property is very close to parks and trails. The host is amazing and keeps the cabin very clean and neat. He will also place some fresh food items there for you as well. I highly reccomend this quiet get away and will be returning again very soon.

Slice of heaven!
This cabin was perfect for our visit to Pretty Place chapel! It was about a 40 minute drive with many hiking trails with beautiful waterfalls along the way! The cabin had everything you could need or want, I didn’t even have to run out and buy coffee!

Excellent Stay and Definitely a Gem
From the directions to the description, it was awesome. Everything was clean, local eateries and sites were suggested, and supplies were on hand if we forgot anything. There was even wood for the fire pit covered with a tarp and goodies left on the table to make smores. We will definitely be coming back in the future.

Starting from the first minute you walk in you see the host really cares about your stay. If you want to sit around the fire and enjoy some family time or go exploring around this is the perfect place. The host really went above and beyond with what they provide for the guest I will be back for sure I can’t recommend this enough!!!!

Great cabin in the woods
Great cabin in a quiet wooded area very close to Table Rock State Park. My husband, college aged daughter and myself found it the perfect location to get out early to very close hiking locations and return back to relax by the fire pit, play games and enjoy family time. Everything was extremely clean and well stocked!

Little cabin on the mountain.
We wanted a quiet get away for a few days. This cabin was perfect. It was clean. Easy check in. Great host. The entrance is steep but well maintained. Don had supplied so many extras that were much appreciated. Including half and half that I totally forgot to bring! We were also treated to watching the bears behind the cabin. They were beautiful, but I was happy there was some distance between us. It was a lovely and peaceful experience! Thank you Don for sharing your cabin with us!

The property was clean and neat. The location was very quaint and quiet. A peaceful place to enjoy nature, the sun peaking through the trees and the birds singing.

Quiet and relaxing!
We stopped here on our way back from a long vacation and it was perfect for our little family! Not only was it nice, quaint, and clean, but everything was provided and more. The communication with the owner was wonderful and highly appreciated. He gave us a wealth of information about the area. We have lived in the area before and have been to many hiking trails and waterfalls, but the owner gave us places we hadn’t heard of before. We ended up going to Rainbow Falls and Pretty Place Chapel and had the very best time thanks to the owner’s information! When we got to the house there were already some groceries there! Thank you so much for making the end of our vacation better than we could’ve imagined. We will definitely be back again and would love to stay at this home when we do.

Not bad
Cute and cozy well maintained little house for up to 4 people. Location was not quite what I expected and I would suggest a vehicle that can handle rough terrain. It is literally in the woods and uphill. Only “real” issue I had was some unwanted little critters we kept seeing in the upstairs bedrooms. There is a Dollar General close by so that was a plus.

Best place in South Carolina to get away from everything!!!
This was our 2nd time at the property and we enjoy it more than anywhere else. We relax here unlike any other. We came back to here after 2 years as we got engaged the last time we were here. I recommend anyone to rent this cabin if you want to get away and relax. To top that off, Don is an amazing host.

Very Secluded
Very private price. If anyone enjoys quiet and seclusion, this is it. It is so secluded, it is not a good idea to bring a low riding car up there. Perfect for small 4x4 and other 4x4s and AWDs. The driveway alone was a great experience. LOL. . The cabin is small and very comfortable. TV and wifi is great. With food and a few things he supplies, you can stay for a few days with out leaving. The outside is awesome for walking, hiking or just relaxing

I just want to say how wonderful the place was. It was clean, stocked well with food supplies, cleaning supplies and everything you might need. Even had firewood cut and stacked for us.

Great little place
Loved our stay! It is definitely an older place, but very clean and well kept. Sheets and towels were wonderful and the beds very comfy! WiFi wasn’t great for streaming, but our cell service was very good there. We arrived after dark and it was definitely a little nerve wracking to make that arrival in the middle of the woods, but this place was perfect for our weekend of hiking. Host was quick to respond to questions as well!

We really enjoyed our stay here! The cabin was clean and has pretty much everything we needed to include a waffle iron that we had fun using. We loved the seclusion and peacefulness.

Nice, private hideaway!
Don provided a nice, private hideaway that was well-stocked with a variety of food supplies and anything else you may want . The cabin is perfect for outdoor enthusiasts who want to take advantage of the many hiking trails in the area. He has a variety of trail suggestions posted in the kitchen area and is eager to answer any questions about his beautiful neck of the woods. We also took advantage of the winery that is literally situated a few minutes drive away. A thoughtful host and comfortable place to spend a few days!
