About this property

The ULTIMATE Lakehouse for Fun, Family & Friends. Create Memories that Count

Our luxurious yet rustic lake house oasis sleeps 8 people & is the ultimate, private 9 acre lakefront property for Glamping, a Girls Weekend, a Weekend Retreat, a Family Gathering or to just get away from it all. It is a strict, no-pet, hypoallergenic home. All brand new furniture & furnishings. Well-appointed yet still has a warm and homey feel with knotty pine walls throughout, stone walls and HUGE stone fireplace in the great room. Sit in the sunroom & read... or bird watch. Take a walk in the forest or go bass fishing on the large dock down at the lake. Gourmet Kitchen is a jaw dropper with all the cooking amenities for all the foodies in your group. We have a baking cupboard with tins and pans and a Mixmaster. It's perfect for cooking a large meal as there are 2 Viking convection ovens, a Viking warming drawer and then a full conventional oven within the stove. Family sized fire pit for s'mores, a huge dock outfitted with lights and benches, 2 kayaks are available and assorted life vests. There is a tackle shed by the dock with poles and lures for you to have a lazy day fishing. Inside the home there is a card table, gaming area with PS3, strong WIFI signal, flat screen TV with cable, vintage Pac-Man machine, large laundry room with washer and dryer, huge dining room and MASSIVE great room with triple sized wood burning fireplace. All new furnishings throughout. Its pretty INCREDIBLE for everyone....We do have a generator in case Mother Nature decides to create a wonderful rain and lightening show. Our pool area is open from the Tuesday after Memorial Day to the Tuesday after Labor Day. The pool is an ECO-FRIENDLY, UNHEATED, black lagoon style pool that uses Mother Nature's sunlight to heat it up. We do not use harsh chemicals to maintain it. It is akin to a simulation of swimming in a lake, without the creatures that live in the lake. We would like to make a special notation that we do welcome adults and teens alike BUT we would like to advise potential guests with detailed information so you can make the right choice for your vacation. #1: Guests must walk down a paved path on an inclined hill to the beautiful dock area that is outfitted with benches, fishing poles & kayaks for admiring the lake and reversely, you must walk back up to the house. For people who are not comfortable walking or do not have the cardio health for incline walking back up to the house, you may become winded.#2. This show stopping home and expansive grounds contains a total of 8 sets of stairs , a jetted tub, a swimming pool, a lake, a second story deck with views, fireplaces, granite countertops and a bridge. If you searching for a vacation rental and have small children, this is not a suitable home for your young family. WE STRONGLY ADVISE AGAINST CHILDREN UNDER 13 OR ANY ADULT WITH JOINT PAIN, DIFFICULTY WALKING, WALKERS OR ARE IN WHEELCHAIRS AS WE ARE NOT WHEELCHAIR OR WALKER EQUIPPED. We reserve the right to ask questions about whom will be staying on our property and all their ages and will decline the reservation based the property's suitability for the inquiring guest party. There is also a signature-request, short term lease agreement that must be signed, legally stating that all parents are responsible for their teen's accidents or any accidents of any individual in their party that are not physically capable enough to truly enjoy the great outdoors and a lakeside experience.
We wish to inform any family coming in glorious October, the powers that be at the dam, do lower the water level on Lake Saluda sometime in October. We have no control over the water level going down for yearly maintenance and cleaning however it never lasts more than 48 hours. We have yet to have a guest who wanted to get into the cold lake and kayak but we wanted to mention this point.) NO SPECIAL EVENTS. NO HOUSE PARTIES. NO SHOOTING OR HUNTING. NO MORE THAN 8 PEOPLE, INCLUDING TEENS, CAN BE ON THE PROPERTY AT ANYTIME, UNLESS PERMITTED PREVIOUSLY BY OWNER. ANY ILLEGAL ACTIVITY OF ANY KIND OR BREAKING OF HOUSE RULES WILL INVOLVE 100% FORFITURE OF THE $500 SECURITY DEPOSIT AND POSSIBLY POLICE AND ARRESTS

Simply incredible!

What an absolutely incredible place and I don't think I can say enough great things about it. By far the very best place we have ever rented! From something as simple as the Saran Wrap in the well-stocked kitchen to the gorgeous pool area to fishing off the dock and kayaking the lake to the gaming machines, we loved every second of our stay. You can feel the love that the owners have for this unique home in how well it is taken care of and all the special touches around the home to really make it feel like a home away from home. We hope our baseball travels take us to the area again so we can be back soon to enjoy this home! Thank you for hosting us, Lora and Haven! You were wonderful!

Retreat combining business with relaxation

This is one of the most extraordinary VRBO homes I have ever stayed at. It is better than the pictures or description. I think the owner's main purpose in renting is that she wants to share this special property and to make her guests have a great experience. I hope everyone who stays here enjoys it as much as we did and treats the property well so Lora will keep making it available!

Amazing Lake House!

We rented this house for our family to attend an out of town wedding - and it was perfect as our "home base." Between events we were able to enjoy the pool, head out with the kayaks, and fish. It was exactly what we needed and we're already thinking about when we could come visit again!

Lakeside Getaway

My family stayed at Lora's beautiful home for Thanksgiving this year. Her kitchen was unbelievable (THREE ovens!) and provided us with everything we needed for a wonderful home-cooked meal. The home was unique and beautiful and had so much charm. It was a little slice of lakeside paradise even in the cold November temperatures. We experienced a loss of power to the home for a few hours during our stay (apparently a squirrel got into the electric transformer! RIP). Lora was easy to reach and the issue was remedied within a few hours. My family wants to do a bi-annual trip for Thanksgiving to Lora's home, that is how much we enjoyed our time. Do yourself a favor and book a stay here, you won't regret it!

Family Fun

Such a great property for a family get together, especially at Thanksgiving. Beautiful surroundings filled with fall colors and lake views. The owner was very easy to work with & left us so many special treats - - even the dining table was set and decorated for our Thanksgiving meal with glowing candles and a lovely centerpiece. This property was in a good spot for traveling both to Greenville for shopping & restaurants & also up to Asheville for sightseeing

Absolutely beautiful property! What a gem!

Absolutely stunning lake house. So peaceful and relaxing. My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Gorgeous home, beautiful pool, and a lake just down the hill for fishing. Very convenient location. Close to Greenville and shopping but at the same time secluded in the woods. Definitely planning a return trip!

This house was way beyond our expectations! Absolutely gorgeous! From the pool to the kitchen to the lake and dock, everything was perfect. Tons of room to spread out but also a fun game/living room to come together for movies and games. The grounds are amazing with lots of places to explore. We can’t wait to come back!

Outstanding Property

My family was in the area for my Son's wedding. We wanted to be between the wedding venue in the mountains and Greenville. This home fit the bill perfectly. Since the weather had been warm the pool remained open and was perfect for relaxing afternoons. We would highly recommend this special place. Charlie and Joanne Lewis

Our boys had a tournament in and around the Greenville area. The property was perfect for relaxing between games. The kids had a blast fishing and swimming. Communication from the hostess was easy and quick. Directions were very specific which made for very few questions, but the few that I had were answered within minutes.

The house and property were amazing. House was super clean and comfortable and had everything we needed plus more!! Close to everything including super cool downtown Greenville 10 minutes away. Host Lori was great with making us feel right at home. My teenagers loved the lake and the pool, which were both AMAZING. Just a terrific week mixing baseball with relaxation and fun. We hope we are in the same tournament again next year so we can book again.

love the lake house!

The lake house does not disappoint! This was our second trip to the property...such an amazing place. The house is spectacular, the amenities are incredible, the property is picturesque. Just a quick ride into Greenville or nearby towns make the location perfect if you're not into the hustle and bustle of being in town. The attention to detail that Lora and crew have is amazing. Having been to the house once before, coming back we felt like we never left...and settled right back in like we were home. Sitting on the dock, kayaking, casting a line into the water...such a relaxing place to visit. We were in town on business for the middle part of our week...it was great to have a place of solitude to come back to every night. Lora is a great host and incredibly easy to work with. 100% we'll visit again!

Paradise in Greenville

The property is spectacular, both private and easily accessible. We didn’t have the time to enjoy all aspects of the property in our short stay, but the time we did have was terrific, sitting poolside or enjoying coffee in the morning room or relaxing in the family room and playing PacMan. Lora made us feel very welcome from the moment we walked in with wine and goodies. The chocolates were over the top. We have become regulars.

Saluda Lakehouse

This property was everything that we could have asked for and more. Every single detail and more was taken care of from the very start. The property, and I say property because just to say the house does not do this place justice. Just a dream place for any type of family gathering or vacation. Gather at the pool or kayak and fish on the lake. Then enjoy the expansive house with every amenity you could hope for. So many places to gather and yet even more to find some quiet time alone. If you are going to Greenville SC this is where you want to be.

About the host

Hosted by Ms. Nield

Host profile image
First built in 1953 but totally remodeled. The kitchen is a gourmet chef's dream! The secluded feeling is only a 15 minute drive from downtown Greenville but it feels like you drove hours up into the mountains.

Why they chose this property

There are not many luxury properties in any American city that are on 9 acres of lakefront property where you can be lucky enough to see muskrats, beavers, herons and wild turkeys and then be on a bustling Main Street in 15 minutes. Its very glamourous, well equipped and very reasonably priced compared to what you would receive in a hotel room near downtown.

What makes this property unique

15 minutes to Downtown Greenville, Rustic yet well equipped. 9 acres of lakefront with a gorgeous pool, cabana kitchen & family sized firepit. All new furniture and appliances. There is a tranquil sunroom, gourmet kitchen, MASSIVE living room with triple wood burning fireplace. Strong wifi signal for the techies. Gorgeous dock for fishing. Nature all around without driving hours. Very Comfortable and relaxing. Hidden Gem
