About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Pet Friendly, Rustic LakeFront Home, 4 kayaks, Pontoon rental, free WiFi, Floats

This lake house was built in 2007 so that I could be right on the water and fish any time I wanted to. The home is constructed with only stained or painted wood. It includes 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, an open kitchen, dining and living room with a gas log fireplace. The interior was professionally designed and decorated.

A screened in porch sets the stage for perfect outdoor dining and a deck both of which overlook the lake.

The unusual and original covered boat house has a boat lift and alarm system. The fish that congregate there in the water are my pets and love to be fed. Guests will see bass, crappie, carp, catfish and turtles.

Fishing charters are available upon request through Bucktail Guide Service. Please let me know if you are interested in setting up a fishing guide trip.

This lake house is in a quiet established neighborhood with many full time residents and a family owned diner at the top of the hill that serves the best breakfast around.

My home is in a cove and it not exposed to constant boat traffic. Swimming and floating off the dock are safe and relaxing.

The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. The bathroom offers a jetted tub and hair dryers. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Great Lake Hartwell Location

We loved this place. It was rustic but well appointed, the beds were comfortable, there was plenty of room for a group of 5 adults, and Preston was a very responsive and accommodating host. We were happy we opted to rent the pontoon boat and had a great stay. Would highly recommend it.

Great Clemson weekend

Stayed here for a Clemson admission tour and football game. The place is a cute log cabin with a great house layout. We enjoyed the kayaks and floating off the dock. The price point matched the home features and we had a great time. Thanks for the great TV options too.

Great place to stay!

My wife and I stayed with our two adult sons and their wives for a relaxing getaway. The house was clean, comfortable, and exactly as pictured in the listing. Having the pontoon available to rent, and ready to go when we arrived was so convenient and gave us extra time to enjoy the lake. Preston was great! Communication was excellent and he went out of his way to accommodate us! We will definitely rent here again.

Great Time on the Lake

The house worked perfectly for our family - mom, dad, and 4 kids. Plenty of space for us to relax, and great to have a fully stocked kitchen to prepare meals and a screened in porch to avoid bugs while eating. We also rented Preston's pontoon boat for the week - absolutely worth it - we used it every day for tubing and fishing. Preston was extremely responsive to any questions we had leading up to the trip and very nice.

Enjoyable Labor Day Weekend

Our family (6 adults, 3 dogs) greatly enjoyed our stay at Preston's lovely home on Lake Hartwell for the long Labor Day weekend. The house was very clean upon arrival, check-in was easy, and the house was comfortable for us all. Preston was very responsive and helpful on any questions, both prior to and during our stay. We brought two boats and had a wonderful time fishing and relaxing on some of the many "beaches" you can easily find near the house. We would definitely like to come again for another long weekend!

New favorite rental property at Lake Hartwell!!

This property is amazing. Perfectly and comfortably fit my four children and myself. The boat rental on site was totally worth it and care free. Preston even had a mechanic on call to come take a look at the boat when it wouldnt start. Turned out being a bad battery which the mechanic fixed immediately! Preston and his neighbor were extremely helpful and supportive during the entire stay. We will absolutely be staying again. Just left today and am already looking forward to going again!!

Great house!

Our son was graduating from Clemson. Seven of us stayed at the house, and we hosted another dozen for a cookout after the graduation. The setting was beautiful and peaceful, and the house, screened porch, and deck accommodated us all easily. The kitchen was well equipped and the gas grill worked fine. We were all happy with the accommodations.

An Anderson Area Treasure

This home is awesome. I have rented from VRBO multiple many times and this is the first time that the description and pictures are exactly what the house has. The house is so comfortable. We loved the screened in porch and spent many hours out there. Lucy is easy to work with. The kitchen is well equipped - thanks for adding a blender. Beds are comfy, there is plenty of towels for everyone.
