Best Western Plus Clemson Hotel & Conference Center
Everything was well taken care of. Bathroom was supplied with good soap. The breakfast was good quality. The setup of the hotel is different, and my kids enjoyed the pool.

The Shepherd Hotel Downtown Clemson
It’s the best small boutique hotel and the cleanest in all of Clemson. This is always my first choice if available.

Foxhunt at Sapphire Valley
We were on a lake. But the room we were assigned at Foxhunt Condo was no lake view. It was a low tourist time alot buildings on lake with a view empty. We hated not seeing the lake from our balcony. We were in woods all around. Ugh
