Where is our home?  MAP or Satellite View

We are located on Lake Cherokee (many maps show it as Lake Isaquenna, but all locals know it as only Lake Cherokee), just off of Highway 11 a few miles north of Walhalla and west of Salem, SC.  We are 2.5 hours from Charlotte, and 2.5 hours from Atlanta.  The home is located on the lake with views of the southern edge of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

2011-12 RENTAL RATES FOR LAKEFRONT HOME ON LAKE CHEROKEE

• BY RENTING DIRECT, THE PROPERTY OWNER CAN PROVIDE YOU MORE VALUE FOR YOUR VACATION DOLLAR (IF YOU GO TO SEE THE DETAILS ON ANY OF THE PROPERTIES, YOU WILL SEE WHY)
• BY DEALING DIRECTLY WITH THE OWNER, YOU WILL FIND WE CAN BE MORE FLEXIBLE IN MEETING SPECIAL  NEEDS
• YOU WILL RECEIVE MORE INFORMATION AND DISCLOSURE ABOUT OUR PROPERTY THAN A PROFESSIONAL REAL ESTATE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT COMPANY, THAT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MANY PROPERTIES AND CANNOT PRACTICALLY BE PERSONALLY INVOLVED WITH EACH PROPERTY.  AS AN EXAMPLE, WHEN DID YOU LAST SEE THE SQUARE FOOTAGE SHOWN IN A RENTAL ADVERTISEMENT?  AND IF YOU ASKED, DID YOU GET A GOOD ANSWER?

YOU WON'T FIND ANYTHING NICER THAN THIS, ANYWHERE,  FOR THE MONEY

Our Mission

We want to cost effectively reach vacationers and provide renters with sufficient information to make an informed decision when renting a vacation home.  Full disclosure is a common theme to all of the property advertised and all dealings with vacation renters.

First and foremost, we want to rent to caring families, who will respect our property.  In return, we will provide you with more value for your vacation dollar, both in terms of amenities and the rental charge.   

In setting up our home for ourselves and our guests,  we strived for cleanliness, freshness, and providing as many amenities as possible, while being able to keep the rental charge in a reasonable range.   We spent extra money on mattress quality and the furnishings are very niche, throughout.  

In addition to full disclosure, good and prompt service are top priorities in all of our communications.  

Web Site Owner, History and Homeowner Profile

We are also vacation homeowners at Ocean Isle Beach, and have been renting our home at Ocean Isle since 1999 http://www.oceanislerentals.com.  Here is a link to our Ocean Isle renter comments: Renter comments for our other personally owned beach Vacation Home.  This will give you a good idea of how we work with our guests.  Our mountain lake home is new for us in 2005, but we promise to provide the same top shelf service that we do with our beach home.   We reside in Concord, N.C.   This web site and advertising service is handled personally us.   We started our beach web site in 1999 and this site in 2005.   We will be starting our second year of renting our mountain home to vacationers.  The first year went very well, as evidenced by the "real" guest comments, at the link above.  Every guest we have had has found the property to exceed their expectations in every way.  This little piece of paradise in the corner of SC is a hidden gem and worth a serious look. 

If you rented our mountain home, you would work directly with us.  You would finalize your bookings and contract directly with us, the owners.     We are confident that our pricing will be much better than you can find in other places of similar quality, location and amenities.
