Cozy Pet Friendly Cottage, 2 story Deep Water Dock - bring your boat!

Quiet family & dog friendly home on Lake Hartwell with a large deck and two level boat dock. Very deep water (23 feet at dock when lake is full) means not worrying about summertime water drops and no touching your feet on the bottom when swimming and no muddy water! Two jet ski ports for keeping your water craft out of water and secure during your stay. Bring your boat too, there is plenty of room to tie up to the dock! There is a small boat ramp that is located in same cove and very easy to get to (Port Bass boat ramp). The spacious upper dock is furnished with cushioned furniture and sunshade. Kayaks are also available to be used to explore our large and quiet cove. The large 20'x30' deck overlooks the lake while keeping dogs and small children secure with gates and fencing.

We are only 30 minutes to Clemson University and one hour to University of Georgia.

3rd time at this wonderful place

This is our 3rd time here. We love the location. Very seclude and quiet cove. Only 10 minutes ride to the marina where we rent a pontoon boat. Space to park the boat and enjoy the dock. We caught tons of fish this time around. We plan to be back.

Comfy stay on the lake!

Loved this property! It was so clean and cozy. The owner was communicative and helpful. We were in town for a graduation, and the drive to the events was convenient. We didn’t get the weather to use the dock. But it was really nice, and we’d love to stay again and get to enjoy it!

Great stay

we had a great Stay at this property. We were able to bring our boat and put it in just down the street from the house. The dock is great and is equipped with lifejackets for humans and dogs of all sizes. The house is not huge, but has a large back deck that is perfect for spending time with family away from the water. There were two fridges that made it easy to shop and prepare meals each day and there were basic essentials in the spice cabinet and fridge that were available to to use. The have everything you need to cook and prep there. Our hosts were very communicative and available if we had any questions. Would definitely come back!

Great view of the lake

Everything was great! The cottage was perfect for our family of 4 and the dog :) The view is so pretty and we loved being able to jump in the lake and to use the floats at the house to relax on the water. It was also so nice that there were a few great restaurants just a few minutes from the property. We also went to a game at Clemson, it was a 30-35 min easy, stress free drive. Our dog loved the cottage too. The surmise was amazing from the swing on the dock!! TY!

Lake vacation

We had a great week at the beautiful lake! Loved the dock, the deck, and the great AC inside! The only thing I missed was a dishwasher, but it was a nice big sink to wash our dishes in. It didn’t limit our fun at all. It was one of the better equipped kitchens we’ve had in rentals as well. The two refrigerators came in super handy, used one for drinks and one for food. The floors are super pet friendly as well. We would definitely stay again!
