Fabulous for family time!

The property is beautiful!! The well stocked linens and comfy beds were a delight! The cozy couch was great for all 6 of us to hang out together. The beautiful view of the lake from the multiple places to sit on the backside of the house made to stay so peaceful. Communication with the property manager was quick and minimal. A fabulous stay!.

Gorgeous home on Lake Hartwell

This is a little piece of heaven. The house is decorated impecable, the outside balconies, fire pit and dock to the water are gorgeous. We kayaked and swam several times during our stay and absolutely loved every minute. The property feels like you are in a wooded retreat but really very close to get to town.

Beautiful home on Lake Hartwell!

We had a fabulous time at this beautifully updated home. It was so peaceful and right on the lake. We enjoyed floating in the lake and kayaking. It was just a short drive to the restaurants and shops we wanted to visit. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much!

Clemson Move-in Trip

Two couples and our freshman boys stayed at the house. Plenty of room inside and out. The kitchen/living area is open and relaxing. There is a spiral staircase leading downstairs. You could also access downstairs by back door. Beds comfortable. We enjoyed the mornings on the back patio watching hummingbirds and the lake action. Evening storms rolled in and we watched the lightning show. Denise was great about checking in with us and answering any questions we had in a timely fashion. Overall, we hope to get back to this gem of a home!!

Great place to stay - close to Clemson

Stayed at this home for 3 nights as we attended orientation at Clemson for our youngest. Nice quiet cove - perfect for paddle boarding or kayaking. Host was very accommodating. Loved our time on the porches and the ability to be on the lake and so close to Clemson. Would definitely stay here again!

Clemson Graduation Week

The property was beautiful and perfect for my family. We were visiting prior to the graduation ceremonies and wanted somewhere to relax and spend time with the Clemson graduate. We had plenty of space and the house was immaculate. The host was extremely responsive to the few questions I had throughout our stay. I definitely will return!

Beautiful house on a beautiful lake

This house is beautiful. The furniture and finishes were very nice. The kitchen was fully stocked. SUPER clean. The outdoor living spaces really made this house special. The only consideration would be, if you have small children you would need to be aware of the safety concerns with spiral staircase and the railing to the top floor. There are large enough gaps between the rail posts that a child could easily fall through.

Wonderful Lake House

We spent 5 days here visiting our son at Clemson and attending a football game. It is conveniently located to grocery stores & restaurants, and an easy commute to Clemson. We were able to use the kayaks on the lake and do some fishing from the dock. We enjoyed the fire pit at night. Views from the main living area are lovely and even on a rainy day we could sit inside and view the lake. The beds and furnishings were very comfortable. The outdoor patio seating area allowed for a lovely dinner with our son and friends. The house has wonderful decorative touches, that make this property a special place. The welcome basket with ingredients for s'mores was a lovely touch. I would definitely stay here again.

Beauty and serenity by the lake...

Having recently returned from a 2 month military deployment, my wife and I decided to treat ourselves to a getaway trip without the kids, for some rest and relaxation. The Lakehouse on Lake Hartwell (Stone Haven) provided just that. The house was beautiful, with spectacular views and convenient lake access. Also very clean with lots of little "extras". It's close enough to various small and larger towns to provide lots of options for things to do aside from time spent on the lake.(And of course there's Clemson! Go Tigers!) We plan to return with our 2 daughters as soon as possible. (There's ample room.) Cannot recommend enough!

Perfect Family Football Weekend

We brought our 5 adult children to your beautiful home for a fall football weekend. Everything about the house was just perfect for our family. You have thought about every detail to make your guest welcome and at home. It is a beautiful setting on the lake with a great dock to enjoy water activities. The house is full equipped with everything you could possibly need. Unfortunately we were not able to spend very much time in the house enjoying the amenities as we were gone watching our Tigers play!! We hope to be able to rent your house again next year for our family football gathering. The owners were very easy to communicate with and always timely in their response to questions. So saying that it is perfect, is exactly what it is!!!!!

A Peaceful Lakeside Retreat

This was our 2nd visit to Stonehaven. In my experience, the second visit to a vacation destination rarely lives up to the first time. Stonehaven was the exception to this. My sister and her family came up from FL, and joined me and my family. It was the perfect space for our reunion, with plenty of gathering areas, as well as spaces for quieter times. The house is very clean, and beautifully decorated, and the lake view is absolutely gorgeous! Denise provided plenty of extra touches, too, which we really appreciated, and when we requested the a/c setting be raised a couple degrees, she was quick to accommodate our request. Lastly, the checking in and out process at Stonehaven is much easier than at some other places I've stayed in the past. Things like that really matter when you're struggling to get your kids and belongings organized and out the door in a timely manor. I could go on and on! I'm already planning our next visit! Highly recommend!

Labor Day weekend

We rented this property for a weekend getaway with our high school teens and college aged kids who attend Clemson. Our college kids spent the days with us. The outside space at this house is excellent. It rained the entire day on Sunday of our stay, but we all were able to still sit outside and enjoy the view and each others company. Our age group worked perfectly for this house. One of our college kids had recent knee surgery so she could not get down the spiral stair case. However, she just opened the side door and came down the outside steps to sit outside with us. I saw several reviews about the stairs. If you have very young children or older folks on your vacation, it may be an issue. It was not for us! My son kept saying, "You should buy this house!" We had a great time here. Thank you for sharing your space with us!

Thanksgiving Gathering

I’ve been wanting to write this so others could take note before booking. When we arrived I was taken back by the location. FYI, A few doors down are multiple houses collapsing and trailers which look like they've been left. Directly next door on both sides are fine. When you arrive it was very easy to navigate getting in BUT if you have any older family staying with you they cannot climb the extremely narrow spiral stairway to the basement area. There is a pad on the basement ceiling bc one can hit their head going down. As you are climbing down the stairway you look straight into large holes opened up in the floor/ceiling between the levels, its difficult to explain but you would see it if you visited. Unfortunately, the second bathroom downstairs is the most updated so have the smaller folks use that one. We went over Thanksgiving and the thermostat is controlled by the owner and this was a problem. None of us wanted to stay downstairs bc it was freezing, a little dated, and the stairwell climb, we all stayed upstairs, which if you run the fireplace and the air reaches a certain temp the air conditioner then clicks on and the back bedrooms get ice cold but the open loft heats up. There was this cycle of hot cold all night until i called the owner and she kindly turned off the air. Bc there was a hole also behind the upstairs toilet (unbeknown to the owners) we had two roaches which came inside. I can stand any type of bug even snakes but roaches are one thing that absolutely makes my skin crawl. We got rid if the them w spray. If I would have known about these little things I would have made a better informed decision about staying. Of course no one is going to disclose the location but the stairs were a big deal. The place overall is decorated in a lovely shabby chic cottage and gathering outside around a fire pit was wonderful. The fog rolled over the lake in the morning which made for beautiful pics. Everything was clean and easy to use for we lacked nothing in appliances. The owner is wonderful and so very kind and accommodating. If I had to do it again for our family I would choose a different location and a larger home but this would be perfect for a blended family w smaller kids who could stay downstairs. Hope this helps.

What makes this property unique

Our Lakefront Haven is a Peaceful Retreat from the pace of life!

Our 2,200 sq. ft. cottage-style lake house is more than just a getaway—it's truly our home, and we love it for so many reasons. The peaceful surroundings are just the beginning.

The heart of the home is the charming farmhouse kitchen, which opens seamlessly into the living and dining areas. Whether you're cooking, watching the game, or chatting with loved ones, you’ll always feel connected. Mornings are a delight as the French doors let in soft natural light, offering serene views to enjoy with your coffee or tea.

On cooler evenings, curl up by the cozy fireplace and let the warmth and comfort wrap around you. Step out onto the upper deck to take in stunning views of the lake and wooded yard—watch the fish jump, the boats drift by, and feel the world slow down.

Downstairs, the covered porch offers both dining and lounge areas, perfect for gathering with family or simply soaking in the calm. End your day around the fire pit on the patio, surrounded by the stillness of nature and the soft crackle of the flames.

Here, peace comes naturally. Welcome to your no-stress, lakeside escape.
