About this property

The Quack Shack

Get cozy on the shores of beautiful Lake Murray. This air conditioned 2BR/1BA cabin is nestled in a quiet cove with stunning waterfront views. The master bedroom has a queen bed, while the second has a twin over full bunk bed. The living room also has a queen size sleeper sofa. This little cabin will comfortably sleep up to 6 guests. Spend your days floating around in the walk out swimming area, or get out on the water in one of our kayaks or paddle board. With a bait shop and boat launch just minutes away, you are welcome to tie up your power boat on the new dock. And the fun doesn't stop when the sun goes down. Spend your evenings grilling a fresh caught dinner, and create even more memories sitting around the fire pit. Don't forget the s'mores! If you're looking for a more catered experience, there are several restaurants nearby. Whether you travel by car or boat, excellent local cuisine is just minutes away. Welcome to the Quack Shack. Make yourselves at home and enjoy!

Everything you need!

I stayed here with my family and had an awesome time! We were so impressed by the amount of things that were supplied for us. There was as so much to do. The covered deck and completely fenced in yard is amazing. The location was awesome as well. We loved fishing off the dock and taking out the kayaks. I can’t say enough good things about this place. We definitely plan on coming back!

Awesome Property, Great Experience!

We stayed at this property for weekend tournament. My family had a blast while we were fishing, of course the fishing was great also! Neighborhood is great, neighbors are very friendly. Plenty of room to park 4-5 vehicles and turn around a truck and 21’ boat trailer. Boat dock is brand new with plenty of room for 2-3 boats.

A fantastic little getaway

It was a really, really nice getaway that we both needed. Also great fishing! As well as far away enough from City areas to feel secluded in a good way but close enough to be able to get there pretty easily for good food!.

Fantastic view of the lake enhanced by a floating dock and an enclosed gazebo.

First time we decided to rent a house at the lake versus staying at a hotel at the beach. We enjoyed the beautiful scenery, wildlife and fishing but…we dreaded going into the “Quack Shack” for the night. The sofas, bed & pillows seemed extremely worn out by previous guests and were too uncomfortable to relax/sleep in. They definitely need to be replaced. However, the outdoor scenery and activities more than compensated for the furniture discomfort.

Love the Lake

The Quack Shack is located at a very peaceful part of Lake Murray. We had our own Kayaks and kayaking was great. Our Sheltie loved the fenced in yard and we had a nice visit with the neighbors. Every kind of need was available if we needed it. Great location, great relaxing stay.

Perfect lakeside house in summer

Loved that the place was equipped with not only basic amenities but also lake gear such as for fishing, kayaking, and stand up paddling! It’s a great place to pass the time.

Beautiful Lakeview

The cute quack shack house was right on the lake which is a huge beautiful Lake. John was very prompt in communication and very helpful and attentive. There was so much to do on property and so much more nearby. It almost felt like we had the entire Lake to ourselves. The property provided kayaks and paddle boards and other fun games. Bonus was that the property was completely fenced out which is great for pets to have off leash. We definitely enjoyed our time and will be returning.
