Great House & Location

Our family of 4 stayed & small dog stayed here. We were looking for ax lake house that had some lake toys so this was perfect. The neighbors were friendly & the lake had just the right amount of activity on it. The fish were finicky, but we did catch a few each day. The house was clean & well laid out. The wifi is spotty in several spotsc throughout house so if trying to work did the strong spots w/in the house.

Best stay in Hartwell

Our family has been staying on Lk Hartwell for the past 4 years and this was the best location so far. House was clean and spacious and was in a fantastic location. Great fishing nearby, quiet neighborhood with friendly neighbors (and dogs), and proximity to downtown Lavonia and Hartwell made it convenient. Would definitely stay here again!

Perfect Lake Stay

Our stay was absolutely amazing! The property was just as described and there was more than enough of room for my family and our 2 pups. We brought our boat so the covered dock was perfect. The host was super easy to work with. Definitely would stay again!

Excellent vacation rental

We had a very nice time at the property. We utilized a kayak and the dock for our pontoon boat rental. They were very close to house which made for easy access. We loved that the house had two separate living areas

Peaceful & Comfortable

Comfortable and spacious lake house that was well equipped in every way. The lake access was wonderful and close enough to shopping and restaurants in Lavonia if you wanted to leave (we didn’t!). Our hosts were wonderful. The lake water was relatively clear and good temp for a hot July!

Weather was beautiful. Enjoyed visiting nearby State Park. Also went into town of Lavonia to eat at recommended places. 211 Main street Bakery/Cafe was wonderful. Loved having 2 kayaks for our use, we used them daily. Overall a very quiet and relaxing getaway.

Can't wait to return

The house was beautiful. We loved the fire pit and playing darts on the porch. There was a welcome gift of s'mores ingredients when we arrived, which was so nice. We can't wait to come back in the summer and play in the lake.

Fall break

The house was so wonderful! The setup was amazing and the location was perfect. Would definitely go back. The provided kayaks and paddle boat were utilized, allowing the teens to use them as well as our own boats. The new fire pit area was really nice also. Such a nice getaway!!

Relaxing getaway to Lake Hartwell

We stayed 2 nights at this property to celebrate my birthday. The home was clean, nicely decorated and well stocked. The kids enjoyed fishing from the dock and kayaks. The only glitch we encountered was that our truck with the boat trailer did not fit in the parking area at the house. Thankfully the gas station down the street allowed us to park the truck and trailer there at no cost.

Best Experience on VRBO Ever

This home is seriously the best set up I have experienced in a short term rental. These host literally thought of everything. It felt like a home, with everything you could think of was readily available. The beds and furniture were very comfortable. Everything was clean. Kayaks, paddle board, life vests, fire wood - we literally needed for nothing! Truly above and beyond.

Daughter's Graduation Weekend!

Our family had a great time celebrating our daughter's graduation from Clemson on Lake Hartwell. This lake home was even prettier in person. The home furnishings and outside amenities were perfect. The kitchen was fully stocked and well organized. We enjoyed time on the dock, the kayaks and paddle boat were so much fun. The fire pit and dart board made for a fun evening. Just a wonderful weekend. So thankful for this time with our family. The hosts were quick to answer questions and very helpful.

Attention to Detail

By far the best vacation property I have rented. And I have rented over 50 vacation homes/apartments. The attention to detail is mesmerizing. So clean you could eat off the floor, and very organized. Everything works, nothing is missing or in bad shape. The use of space inside and outdoors is amazing. The porch, fire pit, living room, and kitchen have great views of the lake. But for me is the downstairs family room that takes the cake. Tastefully decorated, and the lay out is an invitation to relaxation. The pictures on Vrbo are great, but don’t do justice to the actual house. It is simply amazing!

We rented this property for a weekend and had a great stay! The house is neat, clean, and decorated nicely with a cozy feel. They even left a s’mores kit for the fire pit. They have inner tubes and kayaks for the lake and games for inside. We would definitely stay here again!

Perfect place! The house was clean, cozy and nicely decorated. It had everything we needed to prepare meals. We enjoyed kayaking and fishing in the cove. The marina for the pontoon rental was close by and we enjoyed a day boating with friends. Will definitely stay here again.

They thought of everything

This was the best location, close to Harbor Light Marina where we had a boat rental. The property had a bathroom right when you walked in, great for emergencies! The master had a magnifying mirror, which I always forget! The dock was great for fishing and so many perks like the paddle boat and kayaks and extra life vests! There was a technical glitch with VRBO and the owners were great at helping me get everything squared away since we couldn't get into the reservation. We played lots of games which still had all their pieces! We'll totally stay again, it was just perfect!

Fall Family Lake Trip

We had such a fun stay at this property. Not only was the property very clean but there were many thoughtful details that we very much appreciated. The kitchen was fully stocked and loved having the set up of body wash, shampoo and conditioner in the both of the showers. There was plenty of outside areas to enjoy including a fire pit with wood ready to use and of course lake access with a dock. If our travels bring us to Harwell again we would definitely consider coming back.

Lake Hartwell Getaway

The house was really cute and we loved the layout. The beds were super comfortable and we loved looking out at the lake and all the beautiful hummingbirds on the feeders. Even though it was a quick trip for us we would definitely recommend this place to anyone and would come back if we had the opportunity!
