Awesome property! Kids loved all the water toys and jumping off the dock. We spent mornings and evenings on the screen in porch! Miss Frankie next door was a sweet lady! I enjoyed talking with her! Loved the location everything easily accessible.

Best Lake Stay Ever

We had such a wonderful time at the Big Red House. Everything about the house and area are perfect. We took our 3 grandchildren and needless to say they had a blast! The neighbors are sweet and we really enjoyed them. If you are looking for the perfect family vacation house this is the one!

Good for a relaxing get away.

This is a cute, nicely updated cabin. It is out in the middle of nowhere which was hard for us. 20 plus minutes to get groceries or find a restaurant. (Georgio’s in Manning was amazing) The lake and dock were great and it was nice they had water toys available.

Sitting on the dock of the bay

This is our second year coming to Lake Marion for Spring Break. We loved this house. The screen porch is amazing, the dock was perfect for passing the day away. It is still a little cool this time of year, and the fish weren’t yet biting as much as we wished, but we had a wonderful time.

Perfect location

With a few minor set backs, the owners were ontop of anything before we had a chance to complain. Great communication and accommodating to our needs. We did enjoy a hot week long stay with some cooling off in the lake. Along with plenty of toys to enjoy and very close sand bar(busy on weekends, but empty during the week), but by the dock was plenty of fun. Went to 3 stumps for a quieter sandbar. Caught lots of fish, plenty of laughs, and memories made!

Family time away from everything!

Everything was great from check-in to check-out. I am battling breast cancer so we wanted a place that was on the water to get away and spend quality family time together! We did just that. We fished every day; however, we didn't catch but a few tiny one's. It was cold a few days so not sure if that's why we didn't catch many but overall, we had a great time! The communication with owner was fast and pleasant! We definitely recommend this rental.

Amazing Lake View

Our stay was very relaxing, my sis and i enjoyed drinking coffee every morning on the porch and all of us just being on the porch most of the time. A lot of steps but totally worth it. Kids enjoyed the private dock. Was a big crowd on the sandbar on the weekends but didn't bother us. We also enjoyed watching Netflix, Amazon, etc. We were glad we could bring our dog, he had a great time! Both of the neighbors on both sides were so friendly, we enjoyed talking with them. I was concerned with 3 bathrooms if we would have enough hot water for showers but we did! We definitely hope to rent this house again!

The Neighbors From Hell

We liked the house(beautiful) but didn't like the neighborhood, and certainly didn't care for the neighbors on either side. House was to close to each other felt very clustered. Didn't really have any privacy. Sat on the back porch, neighbors sat on their porch, can hear everything your talking about. We just couldn't enjoy ourselves there. Didn't care for the outside camera on the back banister, felt like we was always being watched. Thanks for the experience, but will never rent this house again.

The home is well-maintained with a well-stocked kitchen and a variety of family games. The host, Sheila, is absolutely remarkable. Sheila communicated with us as though she were a member of the family. You can feel her smile and warmth in her communications. It was nice to be treated like a person, rather than just a box to be checked off.

Hot Summer at Big Red House

The house was great for us and our family.Boat dock was a lot of fun,Weather was biggest issue, it was so hot we didnt get to enjoy the back porch as much as we would have liked.There was boat ramp nearby so it was easy to load and unload the pontoon and keep it a the dock.
