Great house to stay in. Check in process was a breeze and owner was very easy to communicate with. The lake was very peaceful and great to just wade and float in. Looking forward to staying here again in the future.

It’s a great lake house with great amenities and a fully stocked kitchen. We had an excellent time and would recommend anybody else wanting to have a nice relaxing stay at the lake to use it. The host were very responsive and very nice to work with.

We had a wonderful stay in this home! Four best high school girlfriends went to celebrate our milestone birthdays and lifetime friendships. We enjoyed a relaxing weekend of reminiscing, laughter, good food and drink and beautiful scenery in this lovely, comfortable and well appointed home. We cooked in and also enjoyed one of the local restaurants in the area. It has everything any group would need - very clean, comfortable, well appointed kitchen and baths, easy check-in and out, and the owners were quick to reply with the couple of questions I had. Highly recommend for a great getaway!

Relaxing getaway

The property was well described and the pictures do not do it justice! It was well equipped with everything we needed and could want. We stayed here for my daughter’s graduation from Clemson University and it was close enough to commute daily but far enough away that it remained peaceful throughout our stay.

Very nice house and perfect size for 2 older couples. Towels are a bit thin and a one cup coffee maker are our only complaints. We had a wonderful time!

Tiger Town in Townville

Adult weekend for Clemson homecoming was extra special because of our stay at Serenity Bay. The home was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. The location was an easy drive to Clemson. Close enough to drive but far enough to be away from the hustle and bustle of a football weekend. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful home and location!

Wish we could have stayed longer! We stayed here while visiting our daughter in Clemson. The home was meticulous and beautiful. It had everything we needed. Location was about a 25 minute drive to campus. We definitely would have enjoyed an extra couple of days using the lake and outside activities. Hosts were responsive and helpful.

Tranquil Lake House

Exactly as we hoped…quiet, immaculate, and easy. Entry door was easiest ever, well stocked with all you need in the kitchen, plenty of towels and blankets, great showers, very comfortable beds and bedding. Check out was very simple. Great place, about 25 minutes to Clemson campus for football weekend. Highly recommend.
