About this property
Waterfront home for 12: pets welcome, covered deck, boat slip, beach area, grill
Greens Cay on Lake Hartwell is pet-friendly and a water-lover's dream; it sleeps 12 in four bedrooms and two living areas and offers an amazing view, covered deck, grill, yard, deep-water dock with slip and swing, beach, and plenty of peace and quiet.
Sitting directly on the shores of Lake Hartwell, Greens Cay is a completely remodeled and updated 4 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom ranch home with finished basement. Inside on the main floor, there are two living areas each with smart TV and a sleeper sofa. A full kitchen, washer and dryer, ½ bath, and even a warm-water dog rinse and fireplace round out the inside amenities. Also on the main floor are two bedrooms, each with queen beds, smart TVs, and a full bathroom between them.
Outside the main level is an oversized, half-covered deck that features a table and chairs for dining al fresco, a large propane grill, a super comfortable sectional couch with ottoman, and the most stunning lake view on Hartwell.
Our lower level can only be accessed from the outside and features two sleeping areas: one with a queen bed and the other with twin beds plus a full sized bathroom. Note that you must cross through the queen bed area to access the bathroom.
The deck has steps to the ground and the lower level opens to a patio and then to the backyard which slopes gently to the water. A paved, lighted walkway with railing takes you to a beach area (great for beach fires at night), single-slip dock (guest boats or rental boats welcome), a swing, and lounge chairs. We’re in a great deep-water location so the fishing is excellent, and you’ll have fun on the water with our paddleboard.
For off the water fun, we have a cornhole set and bikes for guests to enjoy.
Located about 90 minutes north of Atlanta, 60 minutes from the University of Georgia, and 45 minutes from Clemson University, Greens Cay on Lake Hartwell is the ideal location to host your next getaway.
Primary renter must be at least 25 years old, and up to 3 pets are welcome for a nominal fee.

About the host
Hosted by Dan Garland
We are Dan and Michelle Garland and we love our lake/beach properties that we manage (with our good friend and co-host Megan) as Garlands Getaways. Our tightknit family of 6 (+1 furry family member) lives in NE Atlanta and includes kids that range from high school to post-college plus two fun-loving parents who believe life by the water makes life in general better.
Why they chose this property
We love our home on Hartwell and had the chance to buy this one just two doors down. We spent a year remodeling and upgrading it ourselves and now believe it to be one of the best options on the lake.
What makes this property unique
Enjoy the stunning view and long line of waterfront from our array of windows or from the uncovered deck or covered section. A sizeable beach area plus a single slip dock on deep water allows you to enjoy the best of the lake plus we offer cornhole, a firepit and bikes for land-based fun.
