This is my second stay here. Property is well cared for and clean. Beds are comfy. Beautiful scenery. Kitchen well equipped. I would definitely stay here again.
We were looking for a quiet place for relaxation, this place was amazing. The scenery was beautiful and the small surrounding towns were filled with friendly people. Our stay was amazing. The waterfalls are breath taking beautiful.
Our experience about this cottage was perfect. From renting to leaving, to quietness to location. From the cows to the beautiful huge white dog who visited us several times. From the beautiful quaint antique shops to the gorgeous mountains. Im telling everyone i know about the perfect cottage. Thank you hosts for sharing with us.
The owners have kept this home true to it's heritage. The home is decorated with beautiful antique pieces. The property is beautiful with green pastures and one big sweet dog named Blue. I will be back.
We took friends for their first Clemson Game. We all enjoyed the Cabin for the Weekend. Everything was as expected. The ride in for a Noon kick off was easy. Did not encounter stopped traffic until a mile from parking for the stadium. Definitely would book again over a hotel room in Clemson or Seneca.
Starting with the late night visit from blue one of the two family dogs and going into the next morning at breakfast on the porch with a visit from a vixen, her pup and the male fox, the first night and morning could not have possibly been any better. We stayed for a total of two nights. The first morning was met with rain and made coffee on the front porch, even that much better. With the bright sunrise, turning into rain and back into sunshine, we enjoyed the cattle in the field the fox in the grass And the Company of the dogs more than you can imagine. The house itself is an amazing escape with all of the amenities needed for a getaway. There are many activities within reasonable driving distance in various directions. I would very highly recommend staying with this wonderful family in one of their cabins.
We loved staying at this historic farm and would not hesitate to book again. There is a lot to do in the area and you could easily stay for a week and not run out of things to do within short driving distances. Super comfortable beds. We were lucky enough to have nice fall weather and scenery.
We enjoyed our stay! Went to Clemson for the homecoming game. Loved the setting of this little cottage. Nice respite away from the crowds. Enjoyed grilling, fire pit, their dog Blue and the cows!!! Attentiveness by owners was top notch. We will be back!! 💗
Perfect distance from Clemson. House and property are very beautiful and peaceful. We loved waking up to the mist over the meadows and the cows grazing in the fields.
The cabin was clean, quaint and secluded. Set on a beautiful farm with walking trails and a large creek. We loved being able to bring our dog and unwind.
The cabin is excellent. Beds are so comfortable. It is located within a old farm setting that we thoroughly enjoyed. Beware: No cell reception for Verison users but no problem.
Loved the stay. Perfect for catching a clemson basketball game and enjoying a rare upstate snow weekend.
There is little to no phone service (for verizon customers at least) which is understandable based on the rural location and not something the owners can control.
The issue was with wifi, which the cabin is listed as having, but really doesn't, at least during our stay. The modem/network in the cabin was not connected to the internet, and the signal on what i guess to be the wifi from their nearby home didn't produce enough of a signal to use in the cabin itself, but rather, worked sometimes on the front porch.
Cabin is a wonderful spot, had a great time, would have been perfect with workable wifi.
Lovely historic property on beautiful farm. It was a great place to walk, relax, unplug. Owners are very responsive and helpful. Loved being able to bring our dog along. Thanks so much!
My husband and I, with our 7 month old son and dog Doc stayed here during our travels. Our first vacation as a family with our new baby. It was such a peaceful stay and beautiful farm. The history of this place is rich, which we enjoyed. A charming place to recharge and enjoy some quiet. Friendly small towns close by with very good folks. Our hosts were very accommodating during our stay, as we experienced an emergency situation with our dog. They were a big help.
Note to anyone afraid of big dogs, Blue the farms Great Pyrenees will come say hello! He’s such a sweet boy! We loved him and loved our stay!
Would recommend to all. Thanks so much!
We loved this magical property! The outside is rustic to keep the historical charm, while the inside is updated and super comfortable. Thanks to the owners who were extremely responsive to a couple of needs and were simply wonderful host. We would come back to the farm in a heartbeat! ❤
We are a family of 6 and we had a lovely stay! It was a great place to take advantage of the surrounding beauty of the upstate. Bonus that the property was so pretty and peaceful. We had the pleasure of meeting Blue, the biggest, happiest, fluffiest, dog ever! Perfect place for playing games, walking to the river, or running in the yard. Clean kitchen and bath with basic supplies. Very comfy beds and bedding. Great little porch too. We will definitely recommend to our friends.
Needed quality time with the family for Christmas and this small cabin provided that. Cabin was very clean and cozy. Kids loved the large room upstairs. The small kitchen has everything you need for your stay and the gas stove is a plus. Views from the front porch are amazing, and the trial to the creek provides a quite walk and scenic views. Cabins and barns provide back drops for timeless photos. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to have spent Christmas. Will look forward to staying here again!
