We absolutely enjoyed our stay. Beth and Matt are wonderful hosts and provided many suggestions for us during our stay. The property is absolutely gorgeous. Very private, peaceful and great views of lake. The outdoor shower is a plus. My husband used it for the entire stay. We, also, enjoyed visits from their 4 month old puppy, Bandit. We will definitely stay there again when we are back in town visiting our daughter at Clemson University. Go Tigers!!!Julie and Ed

We had such a great stay! We loved the house and had an amazing time on the lake. The home was cozy, super clean, and just felt comfortable from the moment we walked in. You can really tell Mrs. Beth has put so much thought into every little detail. We truly felt at home, and we will definitely be booking again!

We had the best time!! Beth and Matt were great with communication, the space was clean and well stocked. The kitchen had all the basics and more, even coffee and filters, and basic condiments. The apartment was nice and comfortable, even on hot afternoon and evenings the fans on the porch made for comfortable outdoor meals. We hope to return in the future!!

The little cottage style house was very well appointed. Probably the best we've had in any short term rental. Beth has literally everything you need to make your stay enjoyable, and well, if you forget something, she's got that covered too! Bonus points for the fact that it's pet friendly but reads more like luxury accommodations. We brought a portable kennel with us set it up in the garage because it's very cool in there and secured our dog anytime. We were not at home. Did I mention that she also has a kitchen herb garden out front? Yep! Fresh parsley and basil abound! Step outside your back door onto the patio and you're just moments away from the waters edge. It's Westword facing so you get to enjoy beautiful sunsets. And there's plenty of room from one of their three dogs to park your boat, launcher, kayak, and fish in the shade if you so desire. Georgia and South Carolina share a reciprocal fishing license so as long as you have a freshwater fishing license in one of those states you're good to go! It's also about 30 minutes away from Clemson and Anderson so it's a perfect meeting spot for parent, weekends, campus tours and alike.Lake Hartwell is home to bass fishing tournaments, jet skiing , kayaking, swimming and basically any other outdoor on the water activity you can think of. Lake Hartwell is in the top 10 list of cleanest lakes in South Carolina. So if you're looking for a relaxing getaway I wouldn't hesitate to book here again.

We absolutely loved this cottage! It was exceptionally clean, neat, comfortable, and so well put together. The property on Lake Hartwell is gorgeous, and the hosts were phenomenal. Beth was so welcoming, responsive, and clearly they take great pride in making sure their guests have a wonderful stay.We weren’t able to stay nearly as long as we would have liked and definitely wished we’d had more time to enjoy the property! It’s also only about 25 minutes from Clemson, which was perfect for our trip to a football game. We would absolutely stay here again!
