About this property

Cottage on Lake Hartwell! Cozy fireplace, wooded trail to dock, & dog friendly!

Welcome to The Noble Thistle Cottage! A quaint cottage nestled in a quiet cove on Lake Hartwell, The Noble Thistle has a little bit of everything to accommodate everyone!

Enjoy the day bed swing on the covered front porch! The sounds of birds, combined with the swing, will lull you into relaxation. Curl up with a book there or by the fireplace or on the back deck while completely surrounded by hardwoods. The huge cottonwood leaves provide ample shade in the summer and beautiful foliage in the fall.

With a fully stocked kitchen, meal preparation is easy. You can enjoy meals inside or outside. Enjoy your coffee on the back deck or screened in back porch as well, while surrounded by swaying trees and peace. A Blackstone grill is provided if grilling out is your thing!

You can take your favorite four-legged family member, and hike down to the lake or enjoy the shaded woods. In fall, the leaves look like confetti raining down on the trail and bridge. The trip to and from the dock can be peaceful, romantic, & picturesque. Picnic or meditate on the little bridge as the creek trickles under you. It's also the perfect spot for family pics!

The refreshing lake water may be calling your name! If so, the dock provides you with a slip for your boat or a place to tie it off. Here, you can adventure out into the water in the canoe that is provided or jump in the lake! Fishing from the dock or shore is exciting as well!

The Noble Thistle has the perfect back deck or screened in porch for yoga and meditation, family gatherings, dinner, and laughter! There is ample parking and plenty of room inside for family and friends!

The primary bedroom, which is down stairs, has an adjustable frame that you control from a wireless remote. Raise your head or feet to get in that perfect comfy position!

Both bedrooms upstairs have a full bed, a twin bed, and a trundle bed! Extra pillows and blankets are available as well! Large families are able to stay here!

A little bit for everyone, a whole lot of joy, and everyone being able to be together, is what makes The Noble Thistle the perfect retreat!

30th Birthday

My family and friends stayed at this home for my 30th birthday weekend. The owners were very communicative and helpful. The home was the perfect place! I would definitely go again!

About the host

Hosted by Kasi Jordan

Host profile image
Be our guest! We are a small town, big family from North Georgia, that loves people, adventure, and serving others! We opened our home so that others can enjoy the lake and make memories, that turn into stories, that are told for years to come! Our doggo Tate makes us a family of 8! With 4 young adults and one 10 year old, we know love & chaos! With joy, we share our home with you.

Why they chose this property

This neighborhood is away from the hustle and bustle of I-85 and the crowds. Tucked back off the big water, our cove is a safe and calm place to play. It is also just minutes from the big water, 2 state parks, & Paynes Creek. It's a perfect place for boating friends to gather and enjoy life connected!

What makes this property unique

The Noble Thistle has joy in her 2 x 4's. It's a place of hope, courage, peace, and fun!
