Pefect getaway at the lake

This was the perfect house to have a getaway with the family. The hosts are great and very responsive. The dock was perfect for our boat, in a nice quiet cove.

Family time on the lake

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was well stocked and very clean. We brought our boat, the covered slip was great to have. Plenty of room to park our trailer, and the boat ramp was about a mile away. Our kids and dog enjoyed swimming and paddle boarding ( we brought our own paddle board) off the dock.

Wonderful property & great hosts

I recently stayed at this adorable home and enjoyed the peace and serenity of the property. We have a student at Clemson and chose to get away to Lake Hartwell instead of staying in Clemson. We actually enjoyed the short 35 minute drive to and from campus and will definitely stay here again - so much nicer than staying at a hotel! The owners are on point when describing the property location, it is truly tucked away from the busy part of the lake and therefore very quiet and serene. The home was extremely clean and tastefully decorated. Perfect for a family of four, a couples weekend or girls weekend!

The property was wonderful. We had an amazing stay for 10 days.

The home was great. We brought our boat and the covered slip was such a plus. Boat ramp was very convenient and only about a mile away. Hopefully we are going to go again next year!! Good grocery in Hartwell

Lake house

Nice and quiet getaway for the wife and I. Boat dock on the lake. Boat ramp is a few tenths of a mile away. And it wasn’t a busy ramp. Even on 4th of July week.

Loved early morning coffee on the patio or at the dock. Such a well equipped kitchen for great meals. Easy and prompt communication with Cathy and her husband. Just a delight to be there.

Wedding Weekend

This property was perfect for us, and although we didn't get to spend much time there (we were there for our son's wedding weekend), we did enjoy walking down to the dock in the morning and evenings and decompressing a bit. Cathy is truly a gracious host and was excellent in responding to any questions I had before staying and during our stay. We hope we get the chance to stay again soon and highly recommend!!
