Lake Hartwell Waterfront, Dock, Clemson, Fire Pit, Fenced Yard, Pets & Game Room

Beautiful Log Cabin nestled in a cove on Lake Hartwell, surrounded by woods and a scenic 1.3-acre lot. “Tigertown Lake Escape" is a 4 Bedroom, 3 Bathroom Waterfront Log Cabin that offers a new dock and concrete path to allow easy access to the lake. This home is the perfect spot for family vacations, Clemson events/ football weekends, fishing tournaments, or a tranquil "getaway." We are ideally located only 13 miles from Clemson University, 2.5 miles from Portman Marina and Galley Waterfront Restaurant, and 5 miles from GreenPond Landing and Event Center (Home of the Bassmaster Pro Fishing Tournament).
Upon entering the home from the covered rocking chair front porch, you will notice its high pine ceilings and cozy cabin feeling, hosting a spacious and comfy living room and kitchen. Enjoy the wood-burning fireplace and 55-inch Samsung Smart Television while relaxing in the living area. This home comes equipped with Cable Television, Smart TVs, and Wifi. Enjoy cooking in our well-equipped kitchen, including a double oven w/air fryer, all stainless steel appliances, and granite countertops. We also offer many small appliances (crock pot, blender, toaster, etc.) and many extras to make you feel right at home. The dining room showcases multiple windows overlooking the serene view and a large farmhouse dining table and high chair to welcome plenty of seating. There is also an office area with a desk and monitor, and we offer free Wifi to allow our guests a quiet space for remote work or school.
The home has 2 bedrooms and 1 full (tub/shower) bathroom on the main level and 2 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms on the lower level. The first bedroom on the main level has a King size bed and 40-inch Samsung Smart Television. The second room on the main level has a Queen size bed and a 40" Samsung Smart TV. All bedrooms are large with plenty of space, and the king rooms have space for a pack-n-play or inflatable bed if needed.
The lower level of the home offers the spacious Master Bedroom, with a California King bed, a pack-n-play, a full shower/tub bathroom, and a 37" Flat Screen TV with Apple TV. The fourth bedroom on the lower level of the home has a Full-size bed, a Twin size bed with a twin trundle bed, and a 32-inch Smart Television with Roku.

There are also several local boat rental companies conveniently located on Lake Hartwell. We have a newly built dock (2022) that offers a covered slip, an easy entry ladder, and a sundeck with Adirondack chairs and lounge chairs to enjoy sitting at the lake. We have a Paddle Boat that seats 4, 2 Kayaks (Two people and one person), and several adult and child-size life vests. Sit fireside by the lake at our concrete Fire Pit area; roast S'mores, Hot Dogs, or enjoy sharing stories and laughs as you make memories.
Anglers love this property! We offer plenty of room for boat and/or trailer parking, Green Pond Landing is only 5 miles from the home, and there are 2 excellent Bait and Tackle shops right around the corner. We have hosted anglers from the Bassmasters, Junior Bassmasters, and many other tournaments.
There is a 2 car carport and private drive as you enter this beautiful wooded lot. We have plenty of room for parking your vehicles and boat. A security camera is placed on the front porch for additional security while the home is vacant and during turnover; however, we do not keep it on while you occupy the home. The lake level fluctuates on Lake Hartwell and traditionally has lower levels from September into the Fall months. However, the water level replenishes from January - July, and there is plenty of water at the dock for boat access and enjoyment of all the water amenities and activities we provide at the property.
This home is the perfect spot to escape the hustle and bustle, relax, and enjoy what matters the most, the family and/or friends around you!

Great place to stay while in town for a wedding. I especially enjoyed the huge, fenced backyard. My dog didn’t want to leave! Other positives - well stocked kitchen with even a few pantry staples, two living areas for larger families, and fireplace with wood provided. I would stay again if in the area.

We were in town for a Clemson game and the moment we pulled down the driveway, we were excited for the weekend! It's quiet, spacious, and had all the necessary entertainment for the time not on campus.

Perfect lake vacation for the family and pet

We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful home. Very spacious, so many amenities, the beds were comfortable, we enjoyed all the outdoor seating options. We really liked having the extra space downstairs. The dock is private and roomy with adirondack chairs so you can enjoy reading a book by the water. The enormous fenced in yard was a great space for our dog to be able to safely run and explore. There is plenty of parking. The owners are kind and easy to work with and quick to respond to any questions. This home was perfect for our family of 7, ranging in age from 21 to 78, and for our pet. It’s a short and easy drive to Portman Marina where we launched our boat and jet ski. We enjoyed being able to boat up to pet-friendly El Arriero At The Shores to enjoy food, drinks and music. The Full Circle Cafe in Anderson is a great little pizza place that was perfect for carry-out our first night there. This was our first trip to Lake Hartwell and the Anderson, SC area. It was an alternative to our usual summer beach trip. We loved everything about the home and the location. We would definitely recommend this vacation rental to family and friends. We hope to be staying again in the future.

This house was fully stocked with everything and so many little things (towels for our fur babies dirty feet, water bowls & even sticks for roasting marshmallows). The bedrooms are large and room for everyone (inside and outside). The master bedroom on the lower level has a sliding glass door out to the yard which made it easy when taking dogs outside. The back yard is completely fenced in so we never worried about our grand babies and our fur babies playing. The play room on the lower level was a big hit with the kids. We brought our boat, the boat landing was within miles and the dock @ the house was great. There is a sidewalk down to the dock and even a cart to help carry items to the boat. The only issue we had was the walk back from the dock. It was very challenging and reminded most of us we need to work out more(lol). Over all we loved this house and all it had to offer.

Lots of Space

This house has enough space for two families! Great downstairs area with two main rooms. The kitchen is well stocked. One thing I wish I had known to inquire about was the depth of the water off the dock. It is very shallow and made for not great swimming but the dock is awesome and if you have a boat it is great. We enjoyed the kayaks and fishing off the dock. The exterior is in need of some clean up. The bushes are over grown and there was a lot of debris on the path to the dock. We will stay again if we plan to rent a boat. Also beds were very comfortable.

Spacious bedrooms and nice bathrooms in the home. You can’t really see the lake from the house and VRBO or the owner should disclose that there is a very steep decline to the lake. This property would not be appropriate for small children or older adults, especially anyone with certain medical conditions.

This was the perfect place for our family to stay for our daughter’s graduation. Just a twenty minute drive to Clemson University. It rained during our stay so we were u able to enjoy the lake, dock or any provided water toys. But were able to play poker downstairs in the provided poker table to make our stay rememberable. We will come back to hit up a Clemson football game or two in the future. Ashley was awesome. Very easy to get a hold of and very accommodating to our needs.
