We had an amazing time! Host was more than helpful to correct all issues we had. Only things I wish I would’ve known is you need to bring water and ice! We door dashed water and ice daily. Host did provide some water on first day which was nice! We never were bored!

Comfortable large house with several bedrooms and bathrooms as well as a large kitchen and other areas for a group to congregate. House was clean and had ample towels and toiletries. Hosts also thoughtfully had a large tray of snacks, water, and sodas, including supplies for s'mores, on the kitchen counter for guests. The outdoor area was great with a racketball/basketball court, kayaks and life vests, lap pool, sauna, grills, and a firepit. The house is also just a 20 minute drive into downtown Greenville, which is a lovely town with lots of shops, restaurants, and urban hiking trails. Highly recommended!

A lot of thought was put into this place. One of the BEST rentals we’ve ever stayed in with a large group. Our boys stayed outside. Cooking in the kitchen was fantastic they had everything anyone has ever needed in a kitchen. Would definitely rent again.

I have been to a lot of Airbnb’s and honestly, I have never seen one have close to as many amenities as Cindy’s place. Felt completely pampered from the moment we walked in. Hosts were friendly and above and beyond accommodating. Great checkout. No stress. Would definitely stay again. Five stars across the board.

We had an amazing stay here and couldn’t have asked for a better place! The lakefront setting was absolutely beautiful and made for such a peaceful and relaxing getaway. They truly had almost anything you could think of available for guests to use.

This place was also incredibly family-friendly. From my grandpa all the way down to my one-year-old son, there were activities and spaces that everyone could enjoy. It made it so special to have something for every age in our family to do together.

The host was also extremely friendly and informative. She was quick to respond and gave me so many helpful recommendations whenever I asked.

The home was clean, comfortable, and made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Whether you wanted to relax by the water, enjoy the outdoor space, or simply unwind inside, everything was there to make the stay enjoyable.

You can tell the hosts put a lot of care and attention into every detail. 10/10 recommend!

Cindy was an excellent, proactive communicator who made the check-in and check-out process an absolute breeze. The home itself is beautiful. It strikes a perfect balance between secluded and within reach of all that downtown Greenville has to offer. That being said, we didn’t have any reason to leave the property throughout our whole stay. Between basketball, pickleball, and putt putt, we were thoroughly entertained. Will definitely be back!

Despite a rainy weekend that limited our use of the outdoor amenities, we thoroughly enjoyed staying here. The house is beautiful, kitchen more fully stocked than any other home I’ve stayed at, and the host is the most kind, thoughtful and attentive host. All of the outdoor amenities and equipment were well-maintained. We honored the host policy of no shoes inside on the first day, but our feet and socks got so dirty from the floors that we had to go back to shoes. The cleaning crew could have done a better job mopping. The rest of the house was spotless though. Overall excellent experience. I would stay here again if I’m ever in the area!

Our family had such a great time relaxing and playing hard! So many things to do you might find you don’t even need to leave! Though we did go to swamp rabbit cafe & grocery once or twice. And old post coffee is awesome! Loved pickleball, kayaking, chill tub and sauna! Everything was perfect!

This is THE BEST RENTAL home we have ever stayed in. We booked a last minute stay here for MLK weekend. We wanted something fun & unique for our extended family including kids. This home did not disappoint! All of the amenities are exactly as described. The home is beautifully thought out. All of the adults appreciated the well appointed bedrooms and mattresses. The game room was a big hit as well as the swim spa in this colder weather. The kitchen has everything you can imagine and is so organized. We cannot wait to come back again when it’s warmer. Thank you for sharing your place with us. Core memories made!

This was an incredible house and stay! Cindy and team went above and beyond to help me celebrate my husbands 40th! Cindy was very communicative and so helpful leading up to stay and while we were there.

The house is beautiful just like the photos, so many spaces to hang out in, and the best backyard to meet everyone's needs! The view is beautiful!

We would love to come back and stay in the future! Most amazing house I have ever stayed in with our large group of friends!

Great host! Awesome house with great amenities! Super clean. Our kids were never bored. Absolutely would stay again! Only two things to note- the downstairs bedrooms get HOT while the upstairs bunkroom is frigid and the trundle beds have standard mattresses, so they are difficult to pull out.

Host Cindy is an incredible communicator. The property is immaculate with incredible amenities. The kitchen and pantry are unbelievably well-stocked. Hosts Cindy & John should write the guidebook on creating and providing the best VRBO rental experience. We cannot wait for a return visit.

I hosted my team for a company retreat at this lakefront home, and wow—what a hit! The house was exceptional and comfortably fit our group of eight. The expansive kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, and the wide range of activities kept everyone entertained—no one was ever bored. The views from the deck and the firepit at night were absolutely spectacular. The owners were incredibly responsive and accommodating throughout our stay. I highly recommend this property for anyone looking for a well-equipped, all-inclusive group rental.

We celebrated our joint bachelor/bachelorette trip here, since my fiance and I enjoy playing a lot of games and tennis/pickleball. We had an amazing time. The entire home was gorgeous, we never got bored with the amount of amenities that they have here. Cindy was a very kind, responsive, and helpful host. We hope to come back here one day for a family reunion, as it would be the perfect spot! :)

We had a fabulous stay! There was plenty to do on the property. From sports to cooking to small children and everything in between, every piece of equipment was there, in great shape, and ready to use. Any question I had Cindy answered immediately. There were 14 of us and we all had age appropriate activities to do. The kids loved the game room and most especially the candy machine. We are thinking of returning again next year

This home was so incredible. It was so well equipped with so many amenities provided in the home. Everything was perfectly laid out and clean and organized. A true chefs kitchen. Fully equipped game room, well laid out. The outdoor space is unmatched. With so much to do and all of their equipment is clean and organized. The lighting outside is so beautiful and all on automatic timers. Great lake views!! I seriously could not say enough great things. the owners were so pleasant and responsive. Such a treat for our family vacation. Definitely coming back!!

The house and host were amazing. We still haven’t seen Greenville because we decided to spend our time at the property. We floated down the river and played pickleball. The house is the best stocked vacation rental I have ever stayed at! We celebrated our 60th trip around the sun with life long friends. Our host made us bags for our special trip. An extra special touch.

Thurley A · stayed June 2025

The lakehouse was beautiful and very well equipped. There were plenty of towels, (including beach towels), almost any appliance you could ask for, lovely and comfortable furnishings, and oodles of sports equipment to be enjoyed (kayaks; tennis racquets and balls; golf balls, drivers and putters; basketballs; etc.), and a game room with fun games for all ages. The location was so peaceful and quiet as well. Cindy was very communicative and provided all details needed for a wonderful and relaxing stay. After staying at many Airbnb's and other rental homes, we can honestly say that we have never found a place so well equipped and thoughtful and very much appreciated the welcome basket when we arrived later than expected. Thank you for an amazing stay!

Leslee H · stayed June 2025

The lake house and property are very unique and quite beautiful. The house is laid out and decorated beautifully and with a definite intention toward comfort and fun for all staying there. We found the house impeccably, clean and outfitted for any possible need or desire. We were greeted with a lovely array of snacks as a warm welcome, and the gourmet kitchen was stocked with anything that we might desire. We could not stay long enough to have time to use all the beautiful Kitchen appliances and amenities available.In every room with every turn, you have the sense of the deliberate intention to make the home a perfect location and opportunity to gather and to share wonderful memories. The bedrooms and bathrooms are beautifully appointed and allowed for every family member of all ages to feel very comfortable and at home. The backyard houses every possible amenity you could imagine for a fun family vacation, including the tennis court, the putt putt and driving range, the basketball court, the Pickleball court, etc. only to be followed by the lower level dock, paddle boards and kayaks. The large, beautiful fire pit was equipped with everything we needed for fun family bonfires. The outside facilities are as impeccably kept as the inside. The fun and sophisticated game room provided another opportunity for play indoors. Having traveled all over the world and staying in varied accommodations, we would include this as a favorite and one unlike any other. Thank you to our Hosts!

Absolutely beautiful home! 5 stars is not sufficient enough for a review! The kitchen is beyond well stocked, it has every utensil/small appliance you could possibly need. My family enjoyed the lake, using the kayaks, and the basketball/tennis court was definitely used for some family fun, as well as the game room which has a massage chair! We had a special celebration during our stay and Cindy was so sweet and left a gift for my daughter. Cindy is definitely one of the best, if not the best Airbnb hosts I have had the pleasure of working with. The home was more than we could have hoped for and we definitely would love to enjoy another stay in the future!

Cindy was responsive, hospitable and has totally exceeded all expectations anyone would have whether you are relaxing, playing, doing activities on the water, sports on the grounds or cooking for your family, everything you would need is at your fingertips. Location is beautiful and quiet, easy parking, just perfectly organized and supplies for everything. We will definitely return and look forward to it immensely!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!

I’ve hosted many events and stayed in many places… but nothing compares to the experience we had at the Saluda Lake Retreat House.

This home is truly a gem — stocked with literally everything you could ever need (and more!) to host a retreat, event, or getaway. From the stunning setting to the thoughtful details, it exceeded every expectation.

The hosts went so far above and beyond, I’m still blown away. Not only was their communication and service top-notch, but they also surprised us with the most beautiful charcuterie board to congratulate us and celebrate our event. It was such a thoughtful, generous touch — and speaks volumes about the kind of experience they create for their guests.

If you’re thinking about booking — do it.

I cannot wait to stay here again. Truly one of the best experiences I’ve ever had!

This vacation home exceeded all of our expectations and truly felt like a home away from home. The house was spotless upon arrival and incredibly well-equipped. The kitchen had everything we could possibly need—quality cookware, appliances, dishware, plus thoughtful extras like welcome snacks and basic pantry items.The game room was a huge hit with our group, offering a great variety of games, all in perfect condition. Every detail in the house felt thoughtfully considered, from the spacious dining area to the cozy lounging spots both inside and out. The outdoor space was even more impressive, with seating for 10 around the fire pit, beautiful lake views, and access to water activities and outdoor games like mini golf/tennis/pickle ball/volleyball/badminton.The location was ideal—close to Greenville, scenic hiking trails, and local attractions like the Hagood Mill Historic Site. We loved exploring the area but even more, looked forward to coming back to such a fun and relaxing place.Our host was incredibly responsive and informative, going above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. Every member of our group commented on the quality of this VRBO. We can’t recommend this home enough and are already talking about a return trip!

Great property with amazing amenities. Really felt like our own private resort. Kids loved the activities. The lake setting was peaceful. The house was unusually well-equipped with high quality and numerous kitchen tools and appliances, some nice staples, and a nugget ice maker was a real treat! Would stay again.

Our stay was nothing short of perfect. The home was spotless and exactly as described—peaceful, well-stocked, and beautifully maintained. Tucked away in a quiet and private area, it was the perfect retreat for a relaxing getaway. The host was incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and made sure we felt right at home. We especially loved the attention to detail and the comfortable atmosphere. Would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a serene escape.

We rented Cindy’s home for a retreat for my ladies bible study group. It was beautiful and very comfortable for eight women. There was so much to do and the home was beyond well stocked for everything you could want or need. I have never stayed in an Airbnb as well stocked as Cindy’s home. Everything was clean and comfortable and we didn’t want to leave! The group couldn’t stop talking about how perfect this home was! We would definitely rent again and stay longer!

One of the most stylish, clean, and jaw-dropping lakefront homes we have ever stayed in! Amazing views and very private property with endless activities/amenities. ALL the pictures and amenities are accurate. Everything was well thought out when creating this home. This lakefront mansion has everything you need to stay entertained and never want to leave. Cindy (the host) were very informative, incredibly responsive, and friendly, answering any questions about the house promptly. She made us feel right at home.This home is perfect for large groups/families planning a getaway in the beautiful Saluda Lake The whole family was raving about how amazing the house was, and we all had a blast. We would absolutely book it again!

Cindy’s home was immaculate and beautifully decorated! She has thought about EVERYTHING, you might need. We were a group of 13, had more than enough room, adequately stocked kitchen, towels and linens. And with all of the indoor and outdoor amenities, we didn’t leave the house. It was a great weekend to enjoy each other’s company and relax.

By far the best AirB&b we have stayed in and we travel often! I wish I could give this stay a 10 star review!

ok..I've stayed at A TON of airbnbs, and this one is in my top 3 favorite ones, if not my favorite. Cindy has thought of e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g. you may need and things you didn't know you needed. The kitchen is the best stocked I've seen. There is so much to do there you won't have to leave at all. You won't want to leave. We had so much fun doing all the outside activities and then at night we were entertained in the game room. And it's the best game room ever! It's nicer than your average garage game room . We stayed in there both nights for hours and had so much fun! The massage chair alone was heaven. Come to think of it, it's worth getting just for that dang massage chair! Every bedroom had a nice tv, The shower was a spa experience, and just the aesthetic of the house made me not want to leave. The kids LOVED the backyard. I loved this house so much. and to boot Cindy is so stinking sweet.! She was really great. So I would Stay here if I were you. it's amazing. yup. do it.

A really great stay and amazing amenities.

We had an annual guy's getaway trip planned and the previous accommodations fell through last minute.

Saw this airbnb just pop up and a really Great Deal & Value for all the offered amenities (on the lake, fire pit, pickleball/basketball court, arcade room, large deck with grill, large kitchen, plenty of areas to chill and gather, updated bedrooms and bathrooms, and more) to accommodate for all 7 of us.

Cindy, the host, provided amazing recommendations for restaurants and places to check out in the area and a short drive to Greenville.

Looking forward to coming back for another stay again in the fall for a Clemson game and couple rounds of nearby golf courses.

Highly recommended.
