About this property

Lakefront Dream-2 kitchens, fire pit, pets ok, Clemson & Bulldog game Homebase

This home is located on beautiful Lake Hartwell. We are just off the Interstate for convenient access to everything, but far enough away that there is no noise. Clemson University is under 30 minutes, University of Georgia less than an hour. The house is nearly 5000 square feet of living area with a huge deck overlooking the lake. The house has been remodeled from top to bottom and has all the amenities you would desire. There are three bedrooms on the first floor all with king beds and their own bath. Downstairs there is another huge bedroom with two queen beds and two bathrooms. There is a loft with four twin beds. The kitchen features new appliances and a convection oven. The kitchen is stocked with all you need to cook for a large group. The custom built farmhouse dining table is a great spot to gather for family meals and board games. The great room is enormous and features soaring ceilings and a floor to ceiling wood burning fireplace. There is a huge deck overlooking the lake with a gas barbecue. Downstairs there is another complete house! A full living room with air hockey table and another wood burning fireplace and a complete kitchen and living room. The downstairs living room has an air hockey table for family fun. There is also a billiard room with a bar. There is a ping pong table on the downstairs sun porch. There is a dock and two personal watercraft docks. The walk to the lake is gradual and is via a paved path. There is a shaded beach area and an outdoor area for a fire.
There is a big front yard for games on the grassy area. The driveway has a gate and when closed the area is completely fenced. This house is fully equipped. We have a kayak and several paddle-boards for entertainment. There is direct tv service and great wifi service. There are 5 televisions, two in the living rooms and three in bedrooms. The location on the lake is perfect. Near Harbour Light Marina and several boat ramps. You will have a great vacation! One week stays are required. Last minute may consider shorter stays.

Family vacation
The house was very nice for our family. We had plenty of space and having the second living area was great. Deck was very nice and there were plenty of chairs. Lake was beautiful and concrete path down was great. We really enjoyed the beach and easy access to the water. We would stay there again but unfortunately looks like the house is for sale.

Great location for bringing your boat and jet ski plus having a private dock made it even better. The house was perfect and having its own beach area was awesome especially if you have children.

Lake getaway!
The property is beautiful! The views are so wonderful. The dock is great too. The house is fully stocked with everything you will need. Pool room, many TV's for college football, ping pong table, floats, kayaks, everything you need to have a great time. Chris was easy to talk to and very open to communicating. We rented a pontoon from a marina just a short drive from the property. We fished, lounged, ate and had a wonderful time. We spent a lot of time at the dock and on the generous deck. We hope to be back next year.

Wonderful home!
We rented this house for a week. The house was clean and well put together. There was 7 of us and plenty of space. Kitchen well stocked with utensils, dishes, pans etc. Everything was thought of which was nice as we did cook in often. I have to say that the most memorable thing I will have about this lakehouse vacation were the beds. Everyone in my family couldn't get over how comfortable the beds were. If you have rent as many vacation homes as we have you know this is not always the case. Never slept better! The location of this house was wonderful. In a nice neighborhood and very close to marina which was nice since we rented pontoon boat for the week. Highly recommend this house to people as you surely will enjoy your stay. As for communication with the owner I have no clue. We never once needed to call as everything was perfect.

Lovely Lake Home
This home is awesome for large groups. The kitchen is well stocked and open to dining area with huge table. All bedrooms on main level have king size beds that are very comfortable. The downstairs is huge with a secondary kitchen and tons of extra sleeping area. The pool room is lots of fun when you need a break from the sun. The sunroom is a great place to hang out, play ping pong and enjoy the swings overlooking the lake. The private beach is wonderful and relaxing. Dock is great. We brought our ski boat and rented a pontoon and had plenty of room for both boats. This was our second stay at this house and we’re already planning our third visit. Chris is an amazing host and responded to any need or question we had. This beautiful home has everything you need to fully enjoy your vacation at Lake Hartwell!!

Fantastic Clemson Graduation Celebration
We rented this house to accommodate our family and friends who were celebrating our oldest daughter's graduation from Clemson. The house was fantastic. There was so much room for everyone to spread out. We were able to cook for a crowd instead of having to go out to eat. The "kids" loved being in the water off the dock (no boat...just used floaties, paddleboards, noodles at the house) and playing pool and air hockey. The drive to Clemson was easy. The view on the deck was beautiful. It was so nice to be able to have everyone we loved in the same place at the same time. All in all, we made a lot of great memories and had a great time celebrating this milestone.

Wonderful Home to Share with family
This house is an amazing home to share family time in. The size can only be experienced; pictures do not do it justice. The beds are all very comfortable. That needs to be mentioned because I have stayed in homes that looked great, but the beds were not. The two kitchens made our Thanksgiving week so easy to prepare meals for 10. My family and I would all stay here again. Thank you Chris.

Memorable safe stay
We made it safe because we were trying to outrun hurricane Ian. No problem and the weather was great. Just cool crisp air under the shade trees. Beautiful, clean lake and well stocked with any kind of fish you could want. The home was more than spacious. We caught fish and fried them for dinner one night. The well-stocked kitchen had all amendities needed for many meals. There was plenty of seating for the entire family at the long dining table. We added a few decoratons of fall colors , pumpkins, and candles. The candles added a warm golden sheen against the shiny wood on the table...beautiful! At night, the lighted walkway down to the lake was fun. The fenced in yard was a plus. We brought a Bocce Ball set and played in the front yard (level and plenty of room). Others had a great time playing games downstairs and also in the Billiard room. The most fun was renting a pontoon. We road up the river and fished one day and down the next. What can I say, we lacked for nothing!! Everyone enjoyed the home immensely and planning a trip back.

We rented for Fall Break. Everything about this home was perfect! More than enough room, we had 3 families and still had plenty of room! The kids loved the loft room. All beds were super comfortable!

Perfect size
The house was the perfect size for our group. Plenty of room. Nice large dining table for us to eat as a family. Wish the living room tv worked but we made due. Dock size worked perfectly for our boat and two seadoos. Great to have the washer/dryer to bring back clean clothes after a week!!! We did arrive with some house cleaning issues which is why we rated it a four.
