Pefect getaway at the lake
This was the perfect house to have a getaway with the family. The hosts are great and very responsive. The dock was perfect for our boat, in a nice quiet cove.

Wonderful property & great hosts
I recently stayed at this adorable home and enjoyed the peace and serenity of the property. We have a student at Clemson and chose to get away to Lake Hartwell instead of staying in Clemson. We actually enjoyed the short 35 minute drive to and from campus and will definitely stay here again - so much nicer than staying at a hotel! The owners are on point when describing the property location, it is truly tucked away from the busy part of the lake and therefore very quiet and serene. The home was extremely clean and tastefully decorated. Perfect for a family of four, a couples weekend or girls weekend!

Nice and quiet getaway for the wife and I. Boat dock on the lake. Boat ramp is a few tenths of a mile away. And it wasn’t a busy ramp. Even on 4th of July week.

Family time on the lake
We really enjoyed our stay. The house was well stocked and very clean. We brought our boat, the covered slip was great to have. Plenty of room to park our trailer, and the boat ramp was about a mile away. Our kids and dog enjoyed swimming and paddle boarding ( we brought our own paddle board) off the dock.

Nice accommodation, pleasant house.
The house was very comfortable for four people. Plenty of room to park. We had two vehicles and two boats, still had room. The dock was very nice. You do need extension cords to charge batteries. The only addition i would make to the house would be dish rags for wiping counters and table, and also curtains in the Bathroom. The weather did not cooperate very well for fishing, but still caught a good number of fish.

Another wonderful stay
My wife and I enjoyed another wonderful stay. As always, we pulled our bass boat down and spent our time out on the lake fishing. Our own private boat dock gave us a place to park our boat at night and charge the electronics. The house is fully furnished and very well kept. It is pet friendly and our black lab stays pretty relaxed in this quiet neighbor hood. And as always, Cathy goes above and beyond to make sure you have everything you need and that your stay is perfect. When we visit this area, this is our first choice to stay.

Wedding Weekend
This property was perfect for us, and although we didn't get to spend much time there (we were there for our son's wedding weekend), we did enjoy walking down to the dock in the morning and evenings and decompressing a bit. Cathy is truly a gracious host and was excellent in responding to any questions I had before staying and during our stay. We hope we get the chance to stay again soon and highly recommend!!

Terrific Lake Getaway!
The property was exactly as advertised and the perfect size for our family of four plus pooch. There was plenty of space to spread out between the living room and outside patio. We enjoyed the convenience of proximity to the water and use of the dock for the pontoon rental. A side note, the staff at Harbor Lights Marina were great to work with and very service oriented. Our getaway to the lake to end the summer was fantastic with plenty of time spent on and in the water, a trip to downtown Greenville, as well into Hartwell, Lavonia and nearby Royston. We would definitely not think twice, if available, making a return trip to this property in the future.

Felt like home
We loved everything about the house. The dock was amazing and so convenient to have our boat docked there all week. The dock even has a plug in to charge boat batteries. It does require an extension cord, but not an issue. Cathy was so helpful and accommodating. She even offered to pick us up anything from her trip into town. We brought our 2 corgi's with us. The house is set up to be dog friendly. The deck has a gait, dog bowls are provided, and there is even a place to hang leases by the door. Location was great, very quiet and relaxing. Town is not too far away to get groceries. The house was super clean, well stocked, and had linens provided. The bed was super comfortable. The house was just a great place to stay and would highly recommend it. We loved our stay at the Octagon house and would stay there again!!!!!!!!

Wonderful home! We have stayed here several times and love it. No issues and the property owner is great. Very helpful and responsive. She provided a larger crockpot, salt ( which I forgot) and even called to let us know about the local fireworks. House is well stocked and clean, no bugs. Will definitely stay again

Perfect as always
My wife and I have stayed here 3 or 4 times. The house is always clean and supplied with all essential items. The bed is comfortable. The linens and towels always smell freshly washed when we arrive. The owner texts us and makes sure we have everything needed, and quickly responds to any questions we have. The area is quiet. The dock is excellent and covered so that we can dock our boat. This is our favorite place to stay when visiting Lake Hartwell. We will definitely be staying here again.

Awesome Visit
The property was just as described on the VRBO Site. It was very clean and we had all the ammentities we needed. It was an awesome place to spend 9 days at. My wife and I brought our bass boat down and our black lab Miggy. The house was definetly set up to be dog freindly. The boat dock is covered and has power to the dock. The Host are awesome people. Cathy made sure we had everything we needed and communication was easy. We will be back. Oh, the fishing was good too.

Great spot on the lake with great host
I spent 2 weeks here while in town for work and couldn't be happier with my stay. The house was clean and well taken care of. The hosts are kind enough to provide food and water bowls for our dogs. The dock is great, and the power outlet at the dock is perfect for charging boat batteries. I left my boat in the water while ay work and had zero issues. There is plenty of parking for a truck and trailer in the driveway. I mean it when I say the hosts couldn't have been more accommodating. I will gladly come back next time I am in town.
