About this property

Luxurious & Spacious Lake Hartwell Home

Craftsman style custom designed and decorated throughout. Builders personal home with 4000+ sq ft. with innovative ideas not yet seen in Hartwell. 6 Large Bedrooms, 4 Full Baths. Four of the six bedrooms have King beds! Main level - Master (King Suite) and Guest (Queen) Bedrooms. The private Master BR Suite includes a luxurious master bath with separate over-sized Jacuzzi jet tub and shower areas. Two bedrooms, kitchen, living room, downstairs den, dining area, and all tiled porches enjoy the big water view of Lake Hartwell! Upstairs has 2 BR's (Both Kings) with a separate reading/nursery room that can handle a queen blow up mattress for a small 7th bedroom, downstairs 2 BR’s (1 King and 2 Queens plus a set of Bunkbeds), 1 Bath, and den with wet bar. In-ground fire pit on backyard patio overlooking the lake, double garage on main. WI-FI, large flat screen HDTV, in Master Bedroom. About 30 minutes for Clemson Football and Graduations!
We have found that groups where everyone wants to be comfortable find this home the best! There are several areas to sit together both inside and outside as well as plenty of privacy for all. There are 4 Large Bedrooms with King beds. Two more Large Bedrooms support 1 Queen bed and 2 Queen beds and a set of bunkbeds respectively.
There are two bedrooms on the main floor with only one step from the garage in case anyone has difficulty climbing stairs. This allows everyone to enjoy the beauty of the lake and be in the middle of all of the fun!
You are more welcome to bring any floating devices, rings, floats, noodles, etc for your use. We kindly ask that you not leave them behind for other guests as our insurance does not allow us to provide any non-Coast Guard Approved floating devices. We will leave a few Coast Guard Approved life vests for your use.

This is our seventh year staying at this property. The property owners are fantastic to work with and the property is always clean. The house has a great dock perfect if you have boat or just want to lay in the sun. The house is large and well suited to accommodate a large group.

We love this property. This was the sixth year we have vacationed here with our friends and family. The house is well configured for a large party, always immaculately clean and in a great location on the lake. The kids enjoy swimming at the dock, and the lake is clean and enjoyable. We can’t wait to come back next year!

4th of July Family Vacation

We had a great time on Lake Hartwell in this large lake house. Plenty of space for three families! Teens loved having the whole basement for themselves! And all loved the outside space on the huge deck and the large dock!

Perfect family lake retreat!

This was the perfect spot for our family to get together to celebrate our parents 50th anniversary. Plenty of room. Right on the lake with its on dock. Boat ramp nearby and a boat slip on the dock. It's a little tucked away in the woods and not real close to amenities, but part of our enjoyment was making our own meals and our own fun!oursmaking pur own fun

Wedding Weekend

Our stay by included 14 people coming from New Jersey for my daughter’s wedding. The house was well laid out. The ground level living space was perfect for all the kids (eight of them ages 16 -25), giving them separate space from the older adults. The master bedroom and bathroom were a wonderful size. The outdoor space is perfect, being the end of January we didn’t utilize it much but in the warmer weather we would have been out there all the time. The home was well stocked with bath towels, kitchen towel, plates, cups and silverware for the large group we had. The house made for the perfect getaway.

This is a great vacation house, and the owner's have really thought of everything to accommodate guests. The place has a great layout for big groups/families, and beautiful views of the lake. Everything was well maintained, and the kitchen was fully stocked with every cooking item you could need. Our family will definitely be staying here again for many summers to come!

Always a great stay!

This was our third year to rent this property. It is ideally located on a quiet cove off Lake Hartwell. The property is always clean and the kitchen well furbished. The beds are comfortable and the rooms are set up to accommodate families. The dock is located in water deep enough to swim in, and the fishing is good too. We look forward to returning again next year!

Lake house had plenty of room.6 bedrooms was great and the covered porch was wonderful.Rented a Pontoon boat and the lake was so relaxing. Having a pattle board for the young children would have been nice and and some furniture on lower patio would have been really nice. Family enjoyed.

We love to travel and have always found VRBO to be a great asset in finding homes that other families are willing to share. Hope you enjoy Tugalo Heights and that you can make life long fond memories here to cherish for a lifetime.
