The dining room showcases multiple windows overlooking the serene view and a large farmhouse dining table and high chair to welcome plenty of seating.

Anglers love this property! We offer plenty of room for boat and/or trailer parking, Green Pond Landing is only 5 miles from the home, and there are 2 excellent Bait and Tackle shops right around the corner. We have hosted anglers from the Bassmasters, Junior Bassmasters, and many other tournaments.
There is a 2 car carport and private drive as you enter this beautiful wooded lot. We have plenty of room for parking your vehicles and boat. A security camera is placed on the front porch for additional security while the home is vacant and during turnover; however, we do not keep it on while you occupy the home. The lake level fluctuates on Lake Hartwell and traditionally has lower levels from September into the Fall months. However, the water level replenishes from December - August, and there is plenty of water at the dock for boat access and enjoyment of all the water amenities and activities we provide at the property.
This home is the perfect spot to escape the hustle and bustle, relax, and enjoy what matters the most, the family and/or friends around you!

Great Family Escape

Our family had a great time at Tigertown Lake Escape. The property is exactly as advertised, and offers even more than the photos and descriptions online. The home was very clean, especially for a property that is so obviously pet friendly. There was plenty of room for our family, and local friends who stopped by to hang out-both inside and out. The bedrooms were perfect for our needs. The bathrooms were very nice, and well supplied with plenty of linens. The kitchen had all of the amenities we could possibly want, and plenty of cookware and utensils. The hosts make a point of wanting you to feel right at home, and so many small details were already taken care of-including things we hadn't thought of. Hand soaps, extra linens, paper towels, laundry detergent, dish soap, bathroom supplies-shampoo, conditioner, etc. An extra cooler and wagon are available in the laundry room for guests who might need them. Extra food/water bowls for the pups, along with a supply of towels to help us keep paws and floors in good condition. So many thoughtful extras-really appreciated. We loved the outside-big yard, great deck space, plenty of seating-the deck lights were another great touch that we enjoyed. The Tiki Bar is as cool as advertised.The dock was awesome, we had a great time fishing, and also just enjoyed sitting out on the dock, taking in the sights. Ashley was a great host, and we appreciated her communication throughout the process. Thank you for the memories!!

Family Time

Excellent property. The furnishings and bedding were comfortable and great quality. The kitchen was well stocked with everything needed to prepare family meals. Although the weather was cool and rainy in the evenings the outside area would surely have been fantastic for bonfires. The dock allowed us to enjoy easy access to our boat during the day at this lovely home. The owners were accessible and more than accommodating. Beautiful getaway for any family!

Clemson visit

This beautiful property was exactly as described! A wonderful fenced yard for our 2 dogs with a path to the lake and dock.. Unfortunately the weather was not very accommodating for spending a lot of time relaxing outdoors but we did play with the dogs who completely enjoyed themselves. The bedrooms were very comfortable and having 3 bathrooms was a big plus for our family group of 7. Everything was provided so we were able to begin our college tours immediately, before needing to shop. Ashley was an amazing host and was so easy to reach when/if we had any questions had any questions. If we are ever back in the area this is the home we would absolutely try to reserve! Thanks you so much Ashley for sharing your lovely home with us!

Great Home for the Holidays

We traveled to this home in a great upstate location for Christmas. We were able celebrate with local family and friends along with our dogs in this awesome home. Close to The Galley a family favorite for delicious food and cocktails. We also got to enjoy the upstate's spectacular nature hiking the falls and tunnels in the local parks. Great home where many holiday memories were made. Has our highest recommendation.

Worked well!

This property worked well for our family during our daughter’s December Clemson graduation. The only thing that we would’ve enjoyed more is truly being on Lake Hartwell. Instead, we were on a very shallow, drying up inlet which prevented us from any waterfront activities. Had planned to cold plunge, let our dog swim, use the kayaks, etc.

Labor Dat Getaway

This house was perfect for our Labor Day weekend with friends. The host called ahead of time to let us know the water level was down in Lake Hartwell so we wouldn't be able to dock our boat. The marina was a short 3 minute drive away. The space was perfect for everyone. We had such a great time being together.

Great stay

It is a wonderful property. We came in the summer and loved being on the lake. Dogs loved the yard. Only thing to pass on to potential visitors is that the dock is at the back of a cove, pay attention to water levels in the lake. Water level dropped and left the dock with almost no water at the end of the week. This is in no way in control of the property owner but definitely something to consider if you are bringing a boat. Ours is a large center console so smaller boats may be less effected. Over all great property and would stay again if lake levels are up.

Great Log Cabin Home!

Our group of ten had a great time at this vacation home. The lake was low so we never went down to the dock. We were there for an outdoor concert, and it was a short drive into town. I wouldn't recommend the lower-level sofa bed for older adults but it's probably fine for kids and younger folks. We enjoyed the outdoor deck, corn hole and our entire stay. The home was really clean with plenty of fluffy towels, TP, etc. It looked very pet friendly with an outdoor ramp that went into the fenced-in back yard. Great time overall!

Peaceful

This property is perfectly located at the end of the road with no traffic or noise. The house is beautiful, accommodating and clean with everything you need. The only thing I could critique is the description for parking. It was very hard to park three vehicles and two boats without staying off the grass, as requested by the property owner. Other than that, we loved it and would highly recommend!

Perfect property for our family while celebrating our daughter’s wedding. We were 10 minutes from Edgewood, a lovely venue, and the lake kept the guys busy while we took care of wedding details.

About the host

Hosted by Ashley Sabo

Host profile image
We began hosting on VRBO 12 years ago with the desire of owning a vacation home and having guests enjoy it as well. Our first home was purchased in VA, and since that time we have purchased 3 others in South Carolina with this property being our most recent investment. Hosting on VRBO and hearing about the wonderful memories our guests make in these homes has since become my passion. My husband and I are originally from VA and Florida. We currently reside in Tega Cay, SC on Lake Wylie...yes we love the water (salt and fresh). My husband served in the US Marine Corp., then attended Montreat College, and I attended Clemson University and obtained my Bachelor's Degree in Nursing. We have 2 children, our son is a third-generation student at Clemson University, and our daughter is a Senior in High School. We also have two loving Labrador Retrievers, and understand the importance of traveling with your "Whole Family" (2- and 4-legged children).

Why they chose this property

We chose this area and neighborhood because it has a special meaning to our family. We have three generations of Legacy at Clemson University and currently, our son is a sophomore at Clemson. My husband enjoys fishing on Lake Hartwell and has a twin brother that owns a home on the lake as well. In addition, we liked the quiet neighborhood, and remote location, situated perfectly on Lake Hartwell. The wooded lot and secluded location feel like you are in the wilderness, yet the home is conveniently located to many restaurants, grocery stores, and amenities. We also have wonderful neighbors that create a lovely community.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with the natural beauty of this property, the secluded wooded lot, the waterfront location, and the well-built log cabin. This property has many unique features including the very large fenced-in yard, the beautiful wrap-around porches, and the rocking chair front porch. It also offered many extras for all age groups and guests including; a two story playhouse, a secluded dining area that overlooks the lake, and a super cute doggy ramp. In addition we have since installed a nice concrete fire pit area, and a concrete walking path to allow easy access to the lake.
