About this property
Taw Caw Creek Waterfront, Dock, Sandy Beach, Minutes To Big Water! NO PETS
Bring groceries, your fishing rod, beach towels, and a need to chill. (BUT DO NOT BRING YOUR PET. NO PETS ALLOWED. NO EXCEPTIONS.) Everything else will be here when you arrive. Our motto is "Let us provide the rest." And rest you will get! This home has all you need to have a great time away.
LINENS NOT INCLUDED IN FEES BUT A FULL SET OF LINENS AND TOWELS IS AVAILABLE TO RENT FOR A FEE OF $95 which gets left at the house upon departure. Set includes sheets for all beds, bath towels for 6, plus hand towels, wash cloths, and kitchen towels. Housekeeping crew will remove and clean these upon your departure. They're there if you want them but many of our return guests choose to save that money by bringing their own.
Taw Caw Creek is located on the north side of Lake Marion near historic Goat Island in Summerton, South Carolina. Because the creek dates back to the time prior to the development of Lake Marion in 1942, it is virtually stump-free. Lake Marion boasts some of the best fishing in South Carolina and is home to huge catfish, bream, crappie, and record-sized striped and large-mouth bass. BIG catfish are caught regularly from our dock!
Enjoy fishing and water sports on Taw Caw Creek. Bring the boat or jet-ski. There are several convenient boat landings as well as a full service facility, Taw Caw Campground and Marina, right across the creek. For some extra fun, take a short ride down the creek and dock your boat at the Goat Island Resort Restaurant for lunch, dinner, refreshments, and live music. If you like the scenic “big water” of Lake Marion, it is only minutes away.
For a change of scenery, Taw Caw Park is just two miles away and has trails, a play structure, picnic shelters and restrooms..
This 3BR/2BA fully equipped home is tastefully decorated and has a cozy, relaxing atmosphere. It’s perfect for a weekend of R&R and/or playtime on the water. Enjoy the NEW COMFY COUCHES and large screen TV added this fall plus new wood flooring in bedrooms and newly remodeled bathrooms!
We love our home, we take pride in its condition, and we expect guests to take good care of things.

About the host
Hosted by Owners
We purchased the Lake House on Taw Caw so we could enjoy time away as a family while also sharing our slice of heaven with others. Our aim is to provide our guests with a clean, cozy and relaxing home so families and friends can escape the daily grind of work and busy-ness. We installed wi-fi of course, but not because we needed it. We rather enjoy seeing our kids faces instead of the tops of their heads.... Nevertheless, it's there if you need it. You can always "forget" that we gave you the password while you're there.
Why they chose this property
The house is situated such that the sun rises just off to the right as you look out over the lake. The forest is protected across the lake so we know it will never be developed. The creek is wide enough right off the dock that kids can ski and tube while parents and grandparents watch from their lawn chairs. The yard is mostly shady but there is a wide slice of sunshine down by the water. There is something for everyone.
What makes this property unique
We love that the trees in the backyard are the perfect distance to accommodate our hammock - which we leave for our guests to use during their stay. The dock is the perfect place to sit and watch the sun rise with a nice cup of coffee from one of the many cups in our collection.
