We stayed at the Fishing Cottage for a long weekend during the "Great American Eclipse". Arrival was perfect with the door being unlocked since they were expecting us...no need to go to the house for check-in. The cottage was very clean and the kitchen was stocked with everything needed for meal preparation. There was even bottled water already in the fridge and ice cold which was a nice touch after the long ride from Pennsylvania. My favorite place was the deck right off of the main living area. It provided shade during the hottest part of the day and gave a nice view of the pond. Ground level below the deck had a fireplace for building a campfire with plenty of wood already cut for our convenience. Nice! There was also a hot tub which was very clean and well taken care of. The animals on the farm were very interesting to watch. They had goats, cows, chickens, ducks and geese. You can choose whether or not to interact with the animals and we took advantage of becoming "friends" with lots of the critters. I never knew that chickens were such social creatures...I fed a Ritz cracker to one hen and she became my best buddy for the weekend and followed me everywhere. Very cool for a city boy! It's called the fishing cottage for a reason...I caught a fish on almost every cast with night crawlers for bait. One bass was maybe 14 inches long and gave me a nice fight on my ultra light trout rod. They had kayaks at the pond which were available for use and also a short zip line which you could ride and then drop into the pond. We never used the zip line but it looked like it would be fun. There was also a free floating dock which you could use to paddle around the pond to swim or fish. The resident dog, Nymeria, was a pleasure to be around. I gave her a treat when we arrived and she stayed around for most of the weekend which was very enjoyable for us. As I said, if animals aren't you thing, you can choose how much you wish to interact with them. The owners will keep them away if you so desire. There really wasn't any downside to the property. The only possible complaint would be the steps being kind of steep. I'm 64 years old and had no trouble. Also, I read in other reviews about the road being long and bumpy. I didn't think so. It's just a dirt road maybe 800 yards. No big deal. All in all, a very enjoyable property. If you are in the Greenville area for any reason, this is the place to stay and the price is better than most hotels! Enjoy!
