Extended Lake Weekend

This property was absolutely gorgeous!! We enjoyed swimming off of the dock and actually rented a jet ski and tube which the kids loved. The property was clean and well equipped for a family of four (9 & 15). Pat and Mary were very welcoming and accommodated a last minute additional day. We saw deer every morning while sipping coffee on the upper dock. There is a dollar general a couple of miles away for any must haves. We really have no complaints. Thanks Pat and Mary.The Bethea FamilyRusty, Lorrie, Price, and Eden(who also loved the cats)

Wonderful, relaxing stay

We had a wonderful stay at Pat & Mary's lake home, such a peaceful & relaxing place! The grounds are beautiful and well maintained and the home was very clean and had everything (and more) that we needed to fix meals at home. The dock was amazing, we had a great time floating in the lake and relaxing and enjoying the tranquility from the upper level of the dock. Pat & Mary are very friendly, wonderful people and we wouldn't hesitate to stay here again! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful property with us!

Worst rental experience. Hostile owners.

This was the worst and most stressful stay in my life, and we travel every couple of months. As soon as we got to the house the owners were there, started by telling us what not to do, said not to park by the house because they didn’t want our car block the workshop, that is connected to the house and is bigger than the house itself. They do not disclose the fact that their house it 5 feet to the left of the rental property and the workshop is connected to the rental on the right. They have been coming in 2-3 times a day without our permission. The biggest problem started when we tried to wash a blanket that smelled like body odor and the washer started to leak right away. They immediately accused us of breaking the washer and Mary said she was going to use my $3000 deposit to fix their 19 year old washer and clean up the workshop (that was not supposed to be there). She said she hasn’t washed the blankets in 15 years and never had a problem with other renters. I told her that was nasty and that is why it smelled so bad. Vrbo told me they had 2 more open cases from other renters and that them just being on the property was a violation of our privacy. On the day of our departure, the owners brought a guy and 3 of them were watching us pack. Mary once again went inside the house at 8:30 am (checkout is at 11am). We drove off at 9 am and the guy they brought to watch us and intimidate us kept following us in his car for 2 miles. Good luck if u are considering renting

Wonderful, well thought out property.

What a pleasant stay we had. Nice, secluded property on lake hartwell with a dock, spacious home which was very clean, nicely appointed and well maintained. A bonus for us is that the property owners also had a home next door. Pat and Mary were wonderful hosts, very nice people and for anyone concerned about the property owners also living on the property, they respected your privacy.. I really enjoyed meeting and chatting with them. I definately recommend this property.
