This was a very cool space that my family loved. The younger children especially loved the loft area. It was super clean and for a tiny house, it lived large. Very happy with our stay!

Really chill and quiet home. Inside and outside spaces were both great. The house was clean, well-stocked, and very comfortable. Awesome outdoor space for star-gazing and fireside sitting. The location to Lake Jocassee is excellent. The whole area is just amazing. We had a half day boat rental on Lake Jocassee and it’s stunning! Several 3-4 mile hikes and so many waterfalls to choose from. Picked up supplies at Ingles, dinners out a Habanero’s Mexican Grill and Crave Kitchen. Yum! Book this house and have great weekend!

An absolute gem of a spot! This was our first time visiting Lake Jocassee and couldn’t have picked a better place to stay to enjoy it all! This tiny house may be small but it’s HUGE in terms of comfort, convenience, amenities and location. We were grateful to find the home sparkling clean, with comfy beds and a full size bathroom ( super hot water and great water pressure-great after a day of hiking to see the SPECTACULAR Whitewater Falls!) We had plenty of space to unwind , with room to cook and just chillax. The house sits on the edge of a beautiful property-feels very private but also super close to the lake and entrance of Devil’s Fork Park. It rained quite a bit so we didn’t make use of the fire pit, but it’s lovely. Was just us two, but the layout with additional loft beds and bunks-makes it perfect for a small family or a couples weekend away. Tobias was great-friendly and responsive. Don’t hesitate to book this perfect place in the middle of a gorgeous Lake Jocassee!

Great Little Place

Perfect place to stay while visiting the lake for a week. We had a great time and really enjoyed being so close to the state park landing. My 5 year old son did not want to leave. Thanks for having us.

About the host

Hosted by Tobias Martin

Host profile image

Hello, my name is Tobias Martin. I'm married to my beautiful wife Jen and together we have two awesome daughters (Emma and Claire). We enjoy the outdoors, whether it's hiking, biking, boating, or any kind of outdoor activity. We like to travel and meet new people and learn about their cultures. Everyone is welcome at our Tiny House and we hope you enjoy, respect, and love it as we do.
We wish you a great stay and we strive for a five-star experience. Let us know how we do, so we can keep up the good work.

Why they chose this property

Growing up in Germany I always had the dream to own some land in the USA and after meeting my beautiful wife Jen on Lake Jocassee the goal was set. After a long 2-year journey of negotiations, the previous owner of our 13 acres property finally sold it to us in Jan. of 2020. It was all overgrown and barely accessible. It took a lot of hard work over the last 2 years to get it where it is today. We planted 50 fruit trees (apple, peach, and pear), cleared 5-6 acres, drilled a well, and poured about 60 yards of concrete for the foundation, the patio, and the driveway to make it accessible for all vehicles. It's still a work in progress but we enjoy being out there and just leave the hectics of the city behind us. Follow the little path to the lake, explore the creek along the property or just relax in the hammocks underneath pine trees next to the patio. Listen to the whippoorwill bird in the evening or lay on your back and just watch the night sky with its million stars. If you get lucky and get up early you may see some deer walking through the orchard or some black bears looking for some snacks. Explore the area and take your time to just rest.

What makes this property unique

We are located 3/4mile behind Devils Fork State Park which lets you use the boat ramps through the back entrance of the park, which means almost guaranteed access to the lake at all times, granted the parking lot has one last spot for you to park and you have the State Park Pass.
