Everything we needed. Kitchen fully equipped. Very clean and comfortable.Host is wonderful and excellent communication.Our second time here and we’ll return.
This is a perfect little get away spot. Beautiful scenery and comfortable location on the property with a welcoming vibe and clear direction for parking and entering the Guest House. I did not get to enjoy the property and all of its beauty as much as a wanted to because we were here for other reasons, but the allure of it has me already planning a trip back to get the full experience. The Guest House was very clean and stocked for the necessities needed for immediate arrival, Kay thinks of it all! Sorry Keevin if I assumed wrong! The layout is perfect and has a very home like feeling. We did a lazy relaxing Sunday before a long drive home and it was perfect. Thanks for a great stay and I will be back with my adventurous fiance for sure! He is already looking forward to it!

It's okay if you don't mind staying in someone's back yard
We had a wonderful weekend at The Guest House! The property was a perfect spot for a weekend away. The house was very clean and cozy and we enjoyed the scenic river view. We would highly recommend this place and hope to return again soon!
Amazing location and scenery. Excellent trout fishing in the river and extremely relaxing. It was the perfect location to just get away from it all and recharge.
This property is absolutely beautiful and everything we were looking for in a weekend away! Thank you so much for the relaxing weekend we needed! We will be back for sure.
The house was great. The owner was wonderful to talk with. Loved it being away from everything.

Perfect Weekend!
This home is all we could have asked for. Kay was so nice and everything in the "Guest House" was top notch! We plan on staying here again, and again, and again!!! Great vacation rental and great hosts!
The property was gorgeous and the location on the river is serene. We loved our time and will definitely be back. Property owners were incredibly thoughtful and attentive throughout our stay. Great location to unwind.
We had such a wonderful time staying here! It’s so beautiful and clean and Mrs. Kay was so kind and helped us find where to go kayaking. I highly recommend.
When we arrived we were happy to see the photos and descriptions were exactly as told. The location is a wonderful spot to enjoy nature right there or to visit nearby outdoor locations. We look forward to going back again when we stay a bit longer.
Property was very clean, well furnished and decorated and host was extremely nice. We loved our stay and we relaxed the whole weekend which is exactly what we wanted to do. We’ll definitely be back!
We had a wonderful stay! What a great place to disconnect and have a relaxing weekend! The property with river views off the back porch was an added treat! We will definitely be back! Kay is such a gracious host!
Had an overwhelmingly pleasant stay here. Kay and Keevin’s hospitality goes above and beyond. The guest house is very private and extremely clean and well furnished, felt like I was at home! The house is a great location for fishing right on the Chauga river and within 15 minutes of the Chattooga River. Will definitely be coming back for another visit!
Took my father for a trout fishing trip to mountain rest sc for a late father's day present, Kay's place was extremely clean and well appointed. Privacy was limited, main house is only a few feet away. It was ok for us, as we were fishing most of the time but i can see this being a concern for others that might stay. But again, the guest house was extremely clean, had everything we needed. Very comfortable, for sure.
Beautiful property!
Everything we needed for the perfect weekend get away. The Guest House is Super cute and comfy just steps away from the River. cleanliness gets 5+ stars.
Thank you Kay!
Highly recommended!
Enjoy the coolness of the morning by the creek and just relaxed. The “Guest house” was just right for my wife and I. Wonderful extended weekend's. The host, Kay, was great. Can’t wait till we can go back. Thanks Kay
