Holiday rentals with a kayak in Cherokee County

Dave was an incredible host and his place was amazing! He provided so many extras that made the stay even better—firewood, charcoal, kayaks, life vests, paddle boats, and pool toys. I was genuinely impressed by how much was available to enjoy. Dave was also very responsive and made a point to introduce himself when we arrived, which made the experience feel even more personal. He even helped us get set up with a pontoon boat rental! The only small suggestion I have is to consider covering the firewood—after it rained, it was a bit tough to get a fire going. Overall, I highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway from reality. We’ll definitely be back!

The house was bigger than we expected. The yard to the dock was an easy walk. Quite. Screened in porch was excellent! We had a great stay!

Dave’s place was even better than described! It was super clean and cozy. My grandchildren loved that the pool was right outside our back door. The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked, including a box of toiletries in case guests forgot to pack well. I highly recommend Dave and his lovely house.

We had stayed at this AirBnB in 2023 and had so much fun that we decided to come back. My friends and I wanted to take a weekend trip before everyone was graduated and off doing their own things and this stay was perfect for us! Although the weather wasn’t what we hoped for, we made the best of it and had a great time. We love this place and will most likely be back again, thank you!!

This house is EVERYTHING! Lake view, sauna, hot tub, beautiful inside and out. If you’re looking for a getaway home this is it! Plenty of seating upstairs and downstairs. 2 fully stocked kitchens, bathrooms have everything you need and bedrooms come with extra pillows and blankets.. Everything you need for a nice vacation without the hassle of having to pack or buy so many extra things. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! We will 100% be back next year.

Fantastic stay! The Effie house is absolutely adorable and had everything we needed to be comfortable. The surroundings are beautiful, with views of cotton fields and Lake Weiss; sunsets over the water were amazing. John and his wife were so hospitable and readily available anytime something came up. Highest recommendations!

Our family of 4 (two young children) absolutely had the best vacation at Magnolia Outlook! The amenities, the variety of things to do, the views of the lake, the privacy (even with neighbors) was just next level. Everything in the unit was thoughtful - like a starter kit for a fire, coolers to borrow, extra towels, very well stocked kitchen, games and blankets. We even requested a full size coffee pot and it was ready and waiting for us. We were so at home. The pool was amazing and clean and safe, and the lake was at a good distance from the house so that we didn't need to worry about kids getting away from us. The host provided a very helpful hospitality book that helped us navigate the area and find an amazing hiking trail that led to the river creekbed. There really isn't anything negative to say except we wished we could stay longer. We look forward to returning!

Our family has been to Lake Weiss for years. Everyone loved this house and the amenities😁 All requested that we return for next summer! Needed to call our host once and received an immediate response. Our stay couldn’t have been better!!!

This cabin at Starlight Haven was absolutely perfect and gorgeous! It was perfect for a romantic getaway for my husband and I without dealing with a long car ride to a secluded location. It was nice to be able to bring our dog along with as well without any ridiculous extra pet fees of any kind. I would definitely book with Starlight Haven again in the future!

The place was exactly as the pictures show. Perfect for a weekend get away. Just a nice place to go when you need a change of scenery without having to break the bank. I will definitely be booking again. Thank you guys for the weekend.

We had a great time. The cabin was very clean and spacious with plenty of sleeping and seating areas and lots of windows. The back view was nice with the river flowing by. You can use the deck or stand inside looking out all of the windows to watch the river. You can also walk down the hillside to the chairs by the river and even build a fire in the pit. We got to watch a group of kids paddleboarding by. The available canoe was a plus for us.

This is the first place we have stayed that we didn't have a single complaint. Everything went PERFECT. We loved kayaking, fishing, and just relaxing in the swinging chairs soaking in the peace and quiet. The hot tub made everything feel luxurious. All the neighbors were friendly and respectful. The cabin is small but the space is utilized perfectly with all the necessities for cooking or relaxing while you watch some TV. The bed was comfy, with the best pillows I've experienced on a trip (we pack our own but didn't need them). Little River Canyon is a must! We are already planning to come back and stay again!
