The home was perfect. Plenty of room for my family and great space with amenities of entertainment. It’s the perfect set up and it’s not far from Clemson at all. We loved it! Thank you!!
Great location on the water. Took 8 teens and the layout and amenities were perfect. They spent so much time on the dock!

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
The location of this home was lovely. Our teens really enjoyed the amenities (pool table, ping pong and kayaks). It is a long walk down and back up a large hill to the dock so it was challenging for one of our guests with bad knees. Overall, we had a wonderful time.
We had a wonderful stay here!! The house was very clean and the communication from the owners was excellent! We had a minor issue with the kitchen lights when we first arrived and the owner was very responsive and helped to troubleshoot the problem and we got it resolved quickly! Definitely recommend!
Besides the location on the lake and only 15 minutes to Clemson football, the layout of the house is one of the best we've ever stayed at. First floor main bedroom is a plus and two great bedroom areas upstairs. And the game room was awesome!
We stayed here for work and the house was amazing! Had tons of fun things to do while staying such as pool table, kayaks, arcade games…the list goes on. Beds were very comfortable, everything was clean and tidy. The whole process was super easy and the property owner made sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend!!
The lake house was in a great location on Lake Hartwell, close to the main wide-open channel. House had all the features as described on the Vrbo website. I would not hesitate renting the house again in the future.

The house had everything we needed to enjoy our weeks stay. Couldn't ask for better weather. Everyone enjoyed the water. Floating mat for the water was a big hit for our family.
Easy to find and right on the lake. Plenty of parking. Unlike other properties, the Hillgrade down to the lake isn’t that bad. There’s even a cute little beach area next to the dock. The provide chairs on the dock, fishing poles, kayaks & life vests. We really put the ping-pong table and pool table to use. There is a balcony with a hammock attached the double queen room. Would’ve appreciated some blackout curtains and some higher quality bed linens but everything was clean and there’s plenty of closet space, if you are the type who unpacks when you arrive. Sadly didn’t use the hot tub but it was hot when we arrived & there was a gas grill with propane. Only Honest Guests Allowed: apparently this property has history of guests taking items which is stealing. This also impacts the stay of subsequent guests so please only stay at this beautiful property if you’re not a thief. Easy enough.
