Summary: My family has rented the same lake cabin in Newberry for several years, but this year we decided to stay closer to home. If you’re like me, you read every review to find that perfect place. Although it didn’t have many reviews, we took a chance and I’m so happy we did! The place was perfect! It is fully stocked, as many rental homes you’re left with stocking everything from dish soap to toilet paper. This place had kayaks, tubes, hot tub, cornhole, and more! The owners were quick to respond and the check-in process was easy! We will definitely keep this on our return list for next year.

Summary: Very clean and well equipped home! The owner was quick to respond to texts before and during stay. The boat was a nice addition and made our fishing experience great!! Very nice, quiet inland lake with a lot of good fishing. Had a great time, hope to stay longer next time!!

Summary: My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The house was clean and spacious with lots of natural light. The large deck overlooking the lake was perfect for visiting with friends while watching our kids swim and fish off the dock. The outdoor kitchen located on the back deck made it so easy to cook lunch and dinner without needing to call the kids in from the lake until it was time to eat. We were able to rent the owners pontoon during our stay and found the price to be low compared to other daily pontoon rentals. We all enjoyed our evening fishing trips on the boat. The owners and care taker of the rental offered excellent communication. There was also Wi-Fi available which made it nice for completing a few work tasks while overlooking the lake. We will for sure be saving this rental for future trips!
