We enjoyed our stay at the lake house. The house is older, country lake house which suited us fine. The view was beautiful and the kayaks were fun.

Nice and relaxing getaway
So many great things to say about this place. They had a little bit for everyone to do. We rented this place for my birthday weekend to celebrate and bring our boat. We were pleasantly surprised with how much we enjoyed the covered boat dock! The house was spacious and had everything labeled and easy to find. We found a spot in the water to anchor the boat and get in the water. Suggest bringing water shoes if you get in the water off the property that was fun too. Literally have great things to say! Would for sure rent again! Just a side note I would not recommend “the local pub and eatery” we were there for 2.5 hours with terrible food and serve! However we did find the Public well cafe and pizza hands down fantastic atmosphere and great prices family owned.

I didn’t like owner coming to property while we were there. She came 3 times, 2 times to water the yard flowers. And one more time to mow a very small patch of grass, about the size of 2 cars. I felt like we were being watched. Also you can not eat the fish in this lake. We did notice a catfish had a big sore on them. This makes you question swimming here.

Beautiful lakefront property. It was just 3 of us and we used every inch of the outside property and especially loved the game room! Its like having your own private beach and waterfront as you just step outside! The host was so gracious and very accessible if you have questions. Good spiritual vibes as well! Loved it

My sister and I had a wonderful stay at Cindy's place for 4 nights! We loved the lake views, kayaks, hot tub, game room, fire pit, and the wildlife! (deer, birds, geese, and ducks) We also loved how everything was labeled and furnished. The beds were not as comfortable as we would have liked. Overall it was a great place to stay on Lake Hartwell! Thanks for sharing your place!

Perfect
This was one of the best places I've ever stayed with VRBO. The owner had everything super organized, labeled and as well stocked as any place you would want to stay. The property is a beautiful lakefront setting and the house has windows that let you see the beauty of the lake. There were deer to watch and birds galore at the feeders hanging outside. The beautiful deck with decorative lighting and screened porch were an added bonus. Since we are senior citizens, we did not take advantage of everything there that was offered. This would be perfect for a family with young kids, teenagers or young adults. A complete two-car garage full of games, a paddle boat in the lake, and an area for a campfire made it really ideal. The open kitchen dining room and living room made it most comfortable for lots of people to sit around, eat and fellowship. Can't say enough good things about this VRBO. Thank you Cindy!

We spent Christmas here and had a cozy time with our teen children who loved exploring the lake shore and small island beyond. My husband and I enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub. Communication with the owner was great. The house had everything we needed and was very clean. Great value.

The house was very clean, everything labeled and organized. Walking distance to boat ramp to dock our boat near the house. Views of Lake and fire pit location was perfect. Offered lots of amenities for our stay and Cindy was so kind! We will definitely keep this place in mind again, it was a very relaxed and quiet stay.

Perfect family lake trip
Really enjoyed the space both inside and out. Our little ones were able to crawl around in the open living room, while also enjoying seeing deer in the front yard through the massive front windows. Perfect to enjoy the lake from the indoors with it being a little cool. Lots of places to sit, inside, outside enclosed deck, lawn chairs. Lots of space for kiddos to run around outside. Very close to awesome parks to explore. Easy interactions with host (thank you!). Would definitely recommend!

Hidden Gem!
We LOVED the house, hot tub was a hit. Extremely clean, extras stock in kitchen and bathroom if needed. Kitchen well stocked with all types pots, pans, dishes etc. Garage was a game room, indoor mini basketball, ping pong, Fools ball, Air hockey and more. Lots of board games, puzzles etc. Books to read. TV’s in each room. house and walk to the dock was great. Well path to dock, lights at night. Very easy walking to and from dock. Deep water at dock and great fishing. Beautiful views (lake water down) was not a problem. Grandkids loved walking along the shore looking for treasures😊. We seen deer every evening, seen geese and birds. Such a peaceful stay and I pray to return again. Thank you Cindy for your quick response and your loving kindness. Vickie
