LAKEFRONT HARTWELL! Good dogs welcome! Covered dock, fire pit, kayaks!

Just 30 minutes from Clemson with private dock on deep, year-round water!

Walk up to the front door past the bistro set where you'll later enjoy a cup of coffee overlooking beautiful Lake Hartwell.

Inside on the main level you will find an open area combining a super comfortable sitting area with room for the whole family, and the dining area, with seating for six at the table, along with two bar stools at the breakfast bar. In the kitchen, you'll have everything you need, with a coffee pot, microwave, stove, and dishwasher. The side-by-side fridge makes ice quickly to keep your drinks cool on those hot days out at the lake.

But that's not what you came for, is it? Outside the sliders, you'll find a huge, screened-in porch with great views down to the LAKE. Two ceiling fans keep you cool when it's hot and there is plenty of seating for whatever you want to do, whether it be relaxing, eating, drinking, or even playing games. A three-burner Weber grill is just outside the porch to handle those tasty grill nights!

Back inside, you'll find stairs to a large loft that has a queen sleeper sofa and comfy chair, plus a game table, and a 43" TV connected to Dish Satellite Television. A couple ceiling fans make sure the temperature stays just right.

On the main level, down the hallway are the master bedroom with a king-size bed, and the McCoy bedroom with queen. Both bedrooms have their own bathroom - one with a tub and one with an easy-access shower. All bathrooms have towels, hair dryers, soap, shampoo, conditioner, and makeup removers.

Head downstairs to the HUGE rec room. There is a combo pool/ping-pong table and bar area on one side, with comfy furniture and a 60" TV (with Dish Satellite Television) on the other. Down the hallway here, you'll find a bathroom, the Cave (queen bedroom), the Bunker (two twin bunk beds), and the laundry room. In the hall closet, you will find a pack-and-play, booster seat, first aid kit, some lake toys, and plenty of lake towels.

Back out to the rec room, you'll see two sliders giving you access to the covered patio, with another table and plenty of chairs for hanging out. You're also right above the firepit area, which is surrounded by hanging lights for the perfect ambience.

Travel down the mulch path to the floating dock with plenty of room to sit, swing, jump in the water, and park your boat. There are two tandem kayaks on the walkway, plus a single for kids or smaller adults - remember to wear your life vest; there are some in the dock box. There is room to park your boat in the slip with the lift, or on either side of the dock. The water is 15 feet deep at the end of the dock at full pool (660'), and the channel is a solid 25-27 feet all the way across. Bring your fishing rods - or borrow ours - and see what you can catch right off the dock.

You will also have access to the Foxwood Hills Clubhouse, which is only half a mile away. During the summer (Memorial Day to Labor Day), you can use the Olympic size pool, which was recently redone. There are also tennis/pickleball courts, a basketball court, and a nice playground for little ones. If you don't feel like cooking, stop in Wednesdays through Saturdays for dinner at the restaurant.

While we are out in the country a bit, you do have Wolf Convenience store five minutes away (less than 2 miles) for anything you need in a pickle. Stop in and talk to Rick and he'll tell you what you need to catch some good fish, and he'll even sell you some bait.

There is a gas station, Dollar General, liquor store (closed Sundays), and pizza place less than 15 minutes away on SC-11. You're also about 20 minutes from Seneca and 30 from Clemson.

There are some fabulous hiking trails with waterfalls in the area - be sure to check out Stumphouse Tunnel and Yellow Branch Falls!

Boat Info:
We have a single slip dock with a swim platform. The slip has a lift, but you can also tie your boat up on either side of the dock. The closest boat ramp is the Chostoea Boat Ramp - 2.1 miles away by car and 3.4 miles by boat. There is plenty of room in the driveway/front yard to park your trailer. If you would like to rent a boat, we recommend Harbor Light Marina. It's 25 minutes away by car and takes about 30-40 minutes to boat back to the house.

Excellent Home, Location and Owners!
3 families rented this house for our daughters' softball tournament in Toccoa. Great location relative to Toccoa softball fields (appx 20 minute drive that was super-easy). Beautiful lake lot and views! And the owners were so responsive throughout the booking process. We also accidentally left a hearing aid and shoes which they mailed back to us. Definitely will stay here again next year!

We loved our stay at this home! Communication with Jay and Nicole was top notch and they took care of details we needed quickly and easily. We enjoyed a boat rental, evening s’mores, morning fires on the porch and lots of games in the game room(s)! Thank you for hosting us - we’d love to come back in the future!

Relaxing Lake Vacay
The house is as advertised. It has 3 living areas which is great to spread out. Even with it being the week before July 4 the boat traffic was minimal. We had a great time playing games, swimming, and kayaking.

Excellent vacation home
This home was perfect! Large bedrooms and closets, several huge areas (loft, basement, den/dining open floor plan) for family board or electronic games. It is a short walk to the dock, nice neighborhood to walk around in, parking was convenient and the weather was divine. Our doggos loved the space too. I would highly recommend this location to anyone looking for an escape.

Amazing Lake Front Property-Clemson Family Weekend
We were in town for Clemson Family Weekend. This house was perfect for our family of 5. We all had plenty of room and had so much fun! We used the kayaks, jumped off the dock, and did some fishing. Playing pool and ping pong was also just what we all needed! We loved the back deck for coffee in the morning and the firepit for smores at night! Great home and great hosts! We would definitely come back and we do recommend this beautiful home!

Wonderful Stay!
The cabin was clean and perfect for a large group. Was well equipped in the kitchen and plenty of towels in the bathrooms. We had some great nights with the ping pong, pool table & catching fish on the dock (bluegill, bass and catfish all right from the dock.). Loads of board games, kids were never bored. We enjoyed the fire pit & cooked some great meals on the grill. We would absolutely recommend and stay here again!!!!

Perfect location
The property was perfect for our yearly vacation with our daughters and our grandchildren. We rented a pontoon boat that we docked at the house. The older kids fished off the dock in the morning and evening and the young ones enjoyed the swimming. We also enjoyed the pool that was in the community. The size of the home allowed us to comfortably visit with friends and family that lived in the vicinity. Would highly recommend!
