About this property

Remodeled home on Lake Murray. Large screen porch overlooks large yard, and dock

You will be hard pressed to find a more relaxing screen porch with unbelievable views and sunsets. Totally remodeled home ready to invite you in to enjoy a wonderful time with family and friends. Screen porch has two couches, tables to eat and rocking chairs. Dock or boat ramp is great to swim and fish off of. Want to sleep in? Blinds plus black out curtains will help you catch up on sleep. Publix is ten minutes away and that will be the only time you want to leave. Grill is new just like all the appliances. Two hours from Charleston, 1 hour from Greenville, two hours from Charlotte and three hours from Atlanta. 35 minutes to Williams Brice traffic (not taking in to consideration game day traffic.) If you can't make the game watch it on the 82 inch TV in the den with views of the lake out the 9 foot sliding glass door. The permit allows for 6 adults but kids 5 and under do not count towards guest count.

Peaceful lake retreat

Enjoyed our short fall break at this wonderful house. The house is well appointed and has a fully stocked kitchen. The screen in porch with lake view was relaxing for morning coffee and evening meals. Everything about the house was first class and fit our family perfectly. Location on the lake is excellent.

Perfect location for our vacation at Lake Murray SC

Really enjoyed the stay as the house had every convenience one would expect. The dock and ramp on the property were perfect for launching our bass boat and the screened in porch was really enjoyable. The location was very close to Chapin SC shopping and eateries. The neighborhood is really nice and the neighbors were also very friendly. Will definitely be looking into a return trip. Owner was very responsive to questions prior to our trip which we really appreciated.

Great remodeled home with unbelievable view and lake access

I would highly recommend this newly remodeled home with large dock and unbelievable lake view. Great location in nice neighborhood, 10 minute drive to grocery store, restaurants, etc. We enjoyed hanging out on the giant screened porch overlooking the lake while the boys spent their time fishing on the dock. The home has been recently remodeled and is well appointed for a getaway. Clint was great and very responsive. Would definitely recommend and plan on booking again!

Beautiful Home with All the Amenities!

Everything about the home and the property was perfect. The kitchen was well stocked (we were able to cook every meal at home during our almost week long stay) and there were so many games and amenities to keep ourselves busy! My only recommendation would be to update the listing to reflect the actual layout of the bedrooms; there’s (2) bedrooms with (2) Queen beds apiece and (1) bedroom with (1) King bed. The listing shows (2) bedrooms with (1) King bed. Looking forward to our next stay here!!

Lake Murray-Chapin, SC.June 2023 Stay

The renovated house, private boat ramp, and dock were the best! The lake view from the back screened porch are hard to match, beautiful not to forget, fishing off the dock. We launched and docked our 20’ pontoon boat at the property, no driving to a Marina needed! Ample parking for trailer and cars. Owner Clint was very responsive to our pre arrival questions and if we needed anything during our stay! Nice quiet area and close to Chapin for groceries and dining. Clint’s thanks for the stay!!….see you in 2024 Rod G.

Beautiful Lake House

Our stay was perfect. Outstanding home on the lake. Home was furnished with everything you needed and exactly how it was listed. Clint responded promptly when had issue with lock box. My husband and dog thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was big and would be great for several families especially with kids. Didn't want for anything. Very quiet and beautiful neighborhood. Coming from Utah the home was convenient to the town of Chapin and surrounding areas. Highly recommend. Can't wait to return the Chapin area for another stay.

Beautiful home and stunning views

Oh what a wonderful place to stay. Beautiful and updated. The screened porch with the view is stunning. If you are traveling with older adults in your group, BE AWARE the living area has a step down and you step up when you leave it. My 76 year old mom nearly fell on multiple occasions. The front door also has the door jam raised and everyone in our party tripped on that multiple times. Ha. Just thought id share. Its furnished very nicely. I would recommend bringing your own throw cover as there was only one throughout the home and we enjoy cool mornings on the porch. Be sure to also bring your own soap and shampp for showering as none is provided. We so much enjoyed our stay and would stay again and again. Just look down while walking.

Great Lake Murray location

We had a great time on our Lake Murray vacation! Loved the location of this house. The ramp and dock were great to have on property given we brought our boat. The house space was good and we all enjoyed the screened porch! Ate there for most meals. There was a garage but that space was more of a construction area so not usable for us. We did have an issue with dog hair on the furniture, particularly the porch sofas. That was unexpected but luckily we had a lint roller. Not what we thought we would be doing upon arrival. The door knobs need checking as some were on backwards and some did not lock. The septic tank buzzer went off daily but there is a button to push to make it stop. The neighborhood was mostly quiet and the cove made a nice view.

Great location

We’ve rented numerous homes on Lake Murray, but this one is our favorite. The screened in porch is second to none, and the house layout is excellent. May want to consider adding a small smart TV to the master bedroom very satisfied with the week we spent there and will definitely be renting this location again.

Another wonderful family gathering

This is the second year my husband and I have rented this home to host Christmas Eve and Christmas dinners for my local family. It is a fantastic space for lots of people! A large, gorgeous kitchen with lots of cookware and tableware. A dining area open to the family room makes for easy interaction and enjoyment with more eating space on the deck. Comfortable beds, great living space, gorgeous views - an amazing place for a gathering of family and friends!

Beautiful property on Lake Murray with stunning views from the living room, master, screen porch and dock which is in short walking distance from the home. The house was clean and well stocked with what we needed for the trip. I was on a trip for USC graduate school and wish I could have enjoyed it more but I plan to come back!

Amazing!

Amazing is only one of the words I can use to describe this wonderful property! The home is in a quiet neighborhood on a cul de sac and appears small from the street, but upon entering, it seems twice the size! It's wonderful! The rooms are much larger than they appear in the pictures of the property. The design of the home is such that the bedrooms offer enough room and privacy apart from a well designed kitchen. There is a large living room with a stone fireplace and adjacent hallway with chairs with both rooms providing a view of the lake. There is a large screened in porch with a picnic table and sofa adjacent to an outdoor deck with additional chairs and a grill.... the perfect setting for a wonderful family cookout! The stay at the property also included the use of a kayak, lifejackets and a paddleboard. As a result, two of my grandchildren ages 3 and 5 were able to experience their very first ride on a lake in the kayak with their parents. They had the opportunity to observe 2 bald eagles in flight over the lake as well as go fishing off the dock! All of this leads me to say that this property is made for making memories! I know that I'll always cherish the time I was able to spend with my family, to see the happy times they spent here and the experiences they had. Thank you Clint for the wonderful time we had at your property! You were a great host, you responded quickly to our messages, and you were easy to communicate with.

Vacation on the lake

The property was beautiful and directly on Lake Murray. It was also what we expected based on the pics and description on VRBO however, are stay was 4 nights and Helene Storm came through on our first night so we were without power and use of appliances, lighting, AC, etc for the entire 3 1/2 days that remained. Both couples also had to share the master bath since the other bathrooms had not windows and were dark even during the day. We also had to limit use of the showers/hot water as not to run out. We understand that the storm was out of Clint's hands however, we did ask him for some type of refund since we did not use any electricity and certainly were unable to take advantage of the amenities the home had to offer. We have not even received a response from Clint as the whether or not he is willing to give us a partial refund of the price we paid. May we also suggest that a generator would be beneficial for renters in cases such as this. We would appreciate any partial refund Clint could give us. Thank you,

Beautiful

We’ve been staying at Murray for the past 14 years and this home is the best one we’ve stayed in yet. Plenty of parking. Plenty of room inside the home. Host allowed use of the garage which was such an added bonus. Everything was perfect and look forward to booking the same home again next year.

About the host

Hosted by Clint Kelly

Host profile image
I was born and raised in the suburbs of Atlanta but moved to Charleston when I was 18. I absolutely love Charleston but can't quite get the lake life out of my system. It's what I was born and raised around. Finding this house was one of the best things that has happened to my family. We would have started renting it out summer of 2022 but we used it so much we just delayed renting it. I hope your family enjoys it as much as ours does. My kids will have memories to last a lifetime.

Why they chose this property

This has everything you could want to enjoy the lake. Large screen porch and deck with a grill, nice sized yard, nice dock with seating, floater and a boat ramp to ease in and out of the water. The house was remodeled in 2022 with a new 3 zone, heating and air condition system so you can stay comfortable through all seasons. A tandem kayak, paddle board and small inflatable raft will let you get on the water. You can rent a boat and anchor out at a nearby sandbar or go to one of the restaurants on the lake.

What makes this property unique

Everything is new but designed so that you are not walking on egg shells while you vacation. It's meant to enjoy. Whether you want to spend most of your time by the water, on the porch, grilling or watching football on the 82 inch TV.
