Vacation at the Lake
Our family have the best time while staying at the Big Red House. The house is so spacious and accommodated our family perfectly. There are plenty of towels, sheets and blankets, so you don’t need to pack extras. The kitchen is well stocked and the pots and pans are very nice for cooling. The Porch, I cannot say enough about that porch, it’s was my favorite spot to sit in the mornings with a cup of coffee watching the ducks and geese with their daily routine. This was our second stay and I know it here will be a third.

Needed a quiet getaway and the Big Red House did not disappoint! It’s an amazing place with everything you need! Very clean and spacious with an amazing screened in back porch with plenty of space to sit back and relax! The dock was fun to fish off of and to watch the boats go by! Will plan another trip there!

Good for a relaxing get away.
This is a cute, nicely updated cabin. It is out in the middle of nowhere which was hard for us. 20 plus minutes to get groceries or find a restaurant. (Georgio’s in Manning was amazing) The lake and dock were great and it was nice they had water toys available.

Sitting on the dock of the bay
This is our second year coming to Lake Marion for Spring Break. We loved this house. The screen porch is amazing, the dock was perfect for passing the day away. It is still a little cool this time of year, and the fish weren’t yet biting as much as we wished, but we had a wonderful time.

Would not stay again
They need to do something about the german roaches. TV in the bedroom didn't work. Sheets are placed on the bed for the guest to make their bed which is ridiculous, the sheets do not fit, and stained pillowcases. You can only do 2 loads of laundry per week. You cannot take a shower in the upstairs shower because the head is about 3 feet tall. It would be better described as a red home in the middle of a mobile home park. Luckily the neighbors are very nice because you are super close to them. The majority of the furniture and cookware are old and worn out.

A much needed getaway
We enjoyed a quiet few days on the lake. Puzzles, kayaks, wine and home cooking. The house was well appointed with everything we needed. Do be careful with your four legged friends...there are a lot of barking dogs in the neighborhood.
