Great house, great location, great host
This home was perfect for us. Spotlessly clean, very roomy. The kitchen is very well stocked. We loved the thoughtful extras all over the place - a closet with stuff you might have forgotten to pack. She had fresh baked cookies and chocolates when we arrived. Just super nice. The neighborhood is quiet and save. The beds are very comfortable. Just can't say enough about this place. Will definitely rent again.

The house is kept so neatly and in such order. We had a very relaxing time and were able to easily feel at home here! This was probably the most comfortable, clean accomodation with every convenience/amenity thought through and provided (and we've lived and traveled all over the world). It exceeded our expectations!

kayak trip
We wanted to explore lake Murray on our kayaks. The location was perfect for putting in our kayaks… across the street there is a wonderful boat ramp and dock that made it easy for us to use our own kayaks. Plenty of parking for truck and kayak trailer. We even put both in the garage at night The house is comfortable and the most well set up short term rental we have experienced. The owner really makes guests feel welcomed and appreciated. We hopefully will be able to return

Carla’s home was every bit as comfortable as my own. The location was everything I’d hoped it would be. The home was spotless clean and decorated beautifully. The cookies and the fresh flowers she left just made us smile. I look forward to staying here again when I visit my son in Chapin.

Home was AMAZING!!
I cannot put into words how clean this home was. Pride of ownership is very apparent. The home had everything you can imagine in terms of cooking, supplies, toiletries, etc. If you showed up with just your clothing you would be 100% fine. The owner was amazing and responsive to all the questions I had. My family and I cannot wait to go back. This place has a 5 star rating for a reason.

Short but “sweet”
One of the best places I have stayed at hands down. From the booking , until after our stay Mrs. Carla was nothing but “sweet” and accommodating. We stay at a lot of short term rentals because we travel a lot, and this by far has been the best we have stayed at yet. This house is literally stocked with everything you need and more. Thank you for your hospitality and we look forward to booking again in the future.

Landlord thought of everything!
We wanted a clean, convenient rental that was well equipped for our visit to Chapin, SC. The “Sweet Retreat” delivered on all fronts plus many we never considered. Walking in the door and seeing fresh flowers and home baked cookies made us realize we were in the right place. 😊
