Spears Guest House B&B

We came to Cheraw for my 35th class reunion and stayed at The Spears Guest House. We had other friends staying with us there. I loved the in suite private bathrooms. The house was so cozy and very clean. The beds were comfortable. I loved that they had a grill in the backyard so we decided to grill out and had so much fun sitting in the back yard. The front porch in the morning was just perfect for coffee and reading the complimentary paper that arrive there everyday. The owners live across the street and were available if we needed anything. Needless to say they left no stone unturned and we did not have to call them for anything except to come and share a glass of wine with us in the backyard. I cannot tell you what a wonderful experience we had. If you are ever within earshot of Cheraw you must stop in and stay here.

Be sure to book a room at the Spears Guest House! Kay and Larry Spears make your stay in their charming guest house a time for relaxing and enjoying the beautiful town of Cheraw, SC. You can walk to town or church from their location. Our family greatly enjoyed the Cheraw Spring Festival. Enjoy good food and lots of history. A must for you history buffs that enjoy learning about The War of Northern Aggression. We enjoyed our fresh coffee, muffins and treats for breakfast while sitting on the front porch. This house provided us with privacy and quiet while delivering southern charm!

That banana bread Miss Kay serves is fantastic! No matter how hard I tried though, she wouldn't give up the recipe. And what a pair of entertainers those two are! They make you feel right at home with a glass of wine and Larry sitting on the porch strumming his guitar.

This is perfect for quick or extended stays in Cheraw. The innkeepers are personable and the amenities are the best you'll find in this area.

Reviewed October 23, 2011 We had a fabulous stay at the Spears Guest House this past weekend. Larry and Kay were very welcoming, hospitable, and flexible with our schedule. We enjoyed a very entertaining and relaxing evening on the front portch with what felt like old friends. We would definetly recommend this place!

“Very nice experience for a business traveler!” Reviewed January 25, 2012 Was in town for a couple of days for business in Cheraw and chose Spears. So glad I did! It was a lovely place to relax after a long work day. The house was charming and immaculate. My room was cozy, well-decorated and spacious. The kitchen was stocked with coffee, snacks and breakfast items. Would definitely come back. Thanks Larry and Kay! You are great!

Over the past four years I have traveled extensively for business throughout the Southeast. Ordinarily, I stay in chain hotels but prior to my first visit to Cheraw a colleague advised I stay with the Spears. My first visit was a like no other business trip I had been on to date. I came away feeling like I had been away on a pleasure trip. The house was comfortable and accommodating, providing everything I could have needed but more importantly Larry and Kay personified southern hospitality to me. There laid back charm and deep roots in the area make them the perfect ambassadors for Cheraw and the Sand Hills region. Over the last few years I have come to truly look forward to my visits to Cheraw and my time with the Spears. I suspect that I feel like many of their guests; that is to say that rather than finding just a nice place to stay I have also found friends in Cheraw.

Normally, I do not write reviews as they can be artificial and misleading, but this stay compelled me to perform a modern day "pen to pad". Cheraw is an absolutely charming town with antebellum, historic homes just yards always from your private place. The downtown offers fresh food ranging from Oskars, a local authentic German establishment, to an Oyster Bar. The Spears offers a very accommodating stay for the business traveler, as in my case, or for couples desiring an escape. As a traveling businessman, I would classify this stay as one of the top overnight experiences I've had for 2011, and I travel 30% of the time. If you're looking for a beautiful experience with Southern charm and you're passing through South Carolina, then you've got to check this place out.

...this is where I want to be. Beautiful home, Hardwood floors, large rooms, grassy back yard with lawn furniture, gas grill and huge pecan trees, comfy casual front porch with rocking chairs, porch swing, and Story-time with Larry & Kay". So much to enjoy.
