This house was beautiful and nestled in a small quiet cove. Sandra and Neal were amazing to work with and answered every question we had quickly. Neal even showed up to help with a minor issue we were trying to figure out. We definitely had a nice relaxing stay.

Fabulous weekend at the lake!

We spent a wonderful Father's Day weekend at the lake with our family and grandparents. The house is situated on a very nice and quiet cove, which made it perfect for swimming. The huge screened in porch was such a nice feature, and the hot tub was fun for us all as well. We will definitely be back!

Perfection on the Lake

We really enjoyed our stay at this cute house. It was exactly as described and super clean. The separate little garage apartment was perfect for our group that was there fishing a tournament and had to be up early. Would definitely stay here again!

Nice getaway

We needed a nice getaway while also attending a Clemson football game and this was it! The house was very comfortable- big kitchen and den area to relax in. The bedrooms were nice with good pillows. Our mornings were spent on the dock drinking coffee and enjoying the quiet. At night we went out on the dock to look at all the stars. Beautiful. We didn't get to use the fire pit, but it was well stocked. Clemson is just under an hour away but the drive was easy and not much traffic. We would definitely stay here again!

HartWell escape.

The place was awesome, we stayed in the house with 2-rooms 4-beds great back porch looking over the lake so when it rained we played inside. BUT the best was the boat dock and great views. Will be returning soon with a pontoon boat. Thanks the family really enjoyed it.

Quiet little lake house.

House was nice and in a quiet cove. Dock was nice and in good shape. Screened in porch was nice too. I didn’t look close enough to understand the true layout of the rooms and beds/bathrooms so that was my bad. Host was easy going and easy to communicate with.

Lake House Review

Unfortunately, we were not able to stay at the lake house, due to hurricane. Sandra, however, was wonderful, and arranged a refund for us immediately. She is a kind, warm, friendly individual, who goes out of her way to ensure her guests have a great experience. We are looking forward to rescheduling our trip, and renting from her later this year.

Great way to spend a long weekend

We enjoyed our stay. The property was as expected. There are a lot of options for sleeping which helped with our overnight guests. Everything was well-labeled and we had everything we needed. The porch was our favorite place to hang out. The neighbors we met were friendly and considerate.

So impressed! Book it! You won’t regret it!

Often for such a reasonable price at last minute. We were a little concerned things wouldn’t be as posted! Wow! We were surprised! What an amazing little gem we have found! Secluded enough to feel far away but close enough to everything you need! The owners were so attentive to all our needs and were so accommodating! Book this place for the summer! You won’t be disappointed!! 🚤☀️😎

Perfect Spot for a Football Week-end

This was the perfect spot for a small group of friends from the Northeast to stay while in town for the Clemson football game over the week-end. It was a bit chilly, so we didn't get to enjoy the lake much, but the house was perfect for us. Plenty of space, inside and out. Working internet so we could watch even more football! The house was very clean with all the amenities you would need. The owner was very accessible when we had a few questions and very responsive. Check in and check out were seamless! We will surely return on our next trip to catch the Tigers!
