About this property

Quiet Lakefront Retreat - Dog Friendly!

NEW TWO-SLIP DOCK!

Enjoy a quiet escape in our beautiful cove for friends, families and four-legged pals. If you are looking to get away from it all and enjoy a serene and quiet retreat, our home is perfect.
Pet friendly! We do welcome pets with a flat fee of $25 per pet/per stay. Strict 3-dog limit.
One-week minimum over July 4th

Quiet cove, wooded lot, great lakefront location. Visits from our friendly neighborhood deer Bucky!

Swim in our cove, fish off the dock, moor your boat or jet ski on our dock or just enjoy a meal or drinks on the screened porch. Two-person kayak provided for your enjoyment!

We are approximately 1 hour & 45 minutes from downtown Atlanta, 1 hour from Greenville and 1 hour from Clemson.

All the bedrooms can be closed off for privacy and kids’ earlier bedtimes. The cabin comfortably sleeps 8 (1 King, 1 Queen, and 2 bunk beds).

The outdoor area includes Adirondack chairs, a fire pit and charcoal grill.

A gentle slope takes you down to the dock and shallow kids’ play area. We are also very close to the big water if you bring your own boat or Jet ski.

The cabin is five minutes by car from Carter's Ferry Boat Ramp, 10 miles (20 minutes) to historic downtown Hartwell, and 9 miles to Hartwell Marina.

Family Thanksgiving
House was very clean with a comfortable floor plan. I thought house was nicer than photos. We didn’t take advantage of all the amenities because of the time of year but they were available and nice. Location on the water was secluded but not isolated. Not far to the town of Hartwell and shopping. Absolutely no complaints. A grand time was had by all. Would definitely rent again. We saw Bucky or his kinfolk!

About the host

Hosted by Stephanie McCaa

Host profile image
We bought this cabin so that our little girls would have an escape from the city to experience nature and the country. After purchasing the house, we quickly renovated it, adding the living room and master bedroom so that we could have friends and family stay with us.

We hope that you will enjoy our cabin as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

Lake Hartwell has the unique combination of easy accessibility to major metropolitan areas and a quiet, remote location. Even on major holidays, such as July 4th, you feel like the lake is your private playground since there are so few people!

What makes this property unique

We love our quiet cove! It's a no-wake zone so there is almost zero jetski or boat traffic near our dock so kids can swim and play.

The gently graded and short walk from our house to our dock makes the transport of coolers, towels and supplies an easy task.

Our lot is wooded so you have lots of privacy.

We renovated and decorated our home for a lakeside feel with fishing prints and country antiques. We love to cook so our newly renovated kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to make a memorable meal!
The wood-burning fireplace makes for a cozy getaway in the Fall and Winter as well.

Owner is a licensed realtor in Georgia.
