Lakefront Cabin at Lake Hartwell

Come experience Lake Hartwell’s retro modular cabin along the water’s hedge. This fully renovated (3bed 2bath) lake getaway on Lake Hartwell, GA on the best part Lake and is nestled in a quiet cove just off the main channel it offers numerous amenities, beautiful golden sunset views and is a few easy steps from the lake.

Situated with 3 bedrooms, sleeps 10 and has ranch style floor plan with only two steps to enter the front door with easy access parking.

The 3 bedrooms are suited with Cool Tech memory foam mattress. The primary suite comes with a private bath complete with vanity, a walk-in shower and soaking tub. The guest bedrooms have their own guest bathroom. The living room comfortably sleeps 4 with a single-pull out chair bed along with a queen sleeper sofa bed and has direct access to the hall bathroom.

The living room, dining area and kitchen are all open to each other, making it perfect for entertaining with friends or relaxing with family. The kitchen is fully equipped with stainless steel appliances, and all necessary dinnerware, silverware, stemware, AirFryer, Coffee and cookware are provided.

The deck has rocking chairs for lounging and is a great place to sip your morning coffee, or just relax and enjoy the view. There is also a patio for outside dining and a complementary blackstone grill.

The office comes with a dedicated workspace and Murphy Bed to sleep 2 people. Working remotely is painless and a joy at the lake, with our super high speed internet a writing desk and chair included in the front guest room.

If you prefer to chill out inside, close to the water’s edge has and take break from electronics we have chairs with a gas fire pit or a hammock.

For those who prefer outdoor activities, a secluded gas firepit area provides a perfect place for late night bonfires. Our private dock can accommodate most size boats should you want to bring your own or rent you can drop in at Mary Ann Branch Boat Ramp roughly 7 minutes away. Boat cleats on the dock can also be used to tie up your jet ski or any other water craft you may bring. A short boat ride down the lake will bring you to lakefront entertainment and marinas.

This is an ideal location close to conveniences such as grocery stores and gas stations but also close to rural farms and state parks. The rapidly growing downtown Hartwell and Lavnoia area is just 15 minutes from the house and includes groceries, Ace Hardware, restaurants and more. Downtown Hartwell or Lavnoia is an easy drive from the house and has a quaint town square lined with restaurants, shops and bars.

Many of us are drawn to the water, finding both peace and pleasure in tranquil lakes, flowing rivers, and ocean waves. Simply put, being near water makes us happier. Or, as Wallace J. Nichols, PhD theorizes, it’s evidence of our ‘blue mind’ seeking out the restorative benefits provided by bodies of water.

You'll likely be inclined to spend more time outdoors and reap the health benefits of clean air and more exercise. Additionally, waterfront homes you may experience greater levels of peace and contentment. A high-value property is typically associated with a phenomenal view, great lot, dock and ease of access to the waters edge.

When you vacation on the lake, you're exposed to clean air, and plenty of it. With less air pollution, there is a noticeable difference in the air quality around a lake. By spending more time in fresh air, you can help boost your overall health, immune system and increase the happiness of life.

Whether it features directly in their work or helps fuel their creativity, water is a source of inspiration and fascination for many. As you’ll find when you vacation in a lakeside home, there is something about being alongside a body of water that provides the energy necessary for creativity.

This may be a draw for you personally or could be an extra reason to consider vacationing at a waterfront property. Making your vacation as the perfect combination of seclusion and inspiration is sure to appeal to your senses to escape into nature with no overpasses or highways for what could be miles and miles.

Beyond the pleasure of looking out across the lake from your home, there are always plenty of ways to enjoy the water for its recreational potential.

From boating, boat rentals to fishing, swimming to kayaking (we have Georgia's best community in Hart County), there are many water-based activities suited to all tastes, abilities, and age ranges. And vacationing in a home right by the waterfront will give you instant access to all of these activities and more.

peaceful, quiet and comfortable

We loved being on the water, no steep incline and large grass yard with plenty of shade. A family farm across the street with friendly horses, donkeys, and other farm animals was a bonus smile on our afternoon walks (no farm smells either!!). Perfect place to fish, kayak, canoe or swim. The inside was decorated nicely and had all of the pans, dinnerware and linens needed. Definitely would stay again.

The furnishings were comfortable and the decor was charming. The cabin had all the amenities we needed, including a fully equipped kitchen and a cozy fireplace. The location was perfect, nestled in a peaceful and scenic area right on the lake. The host was friendly and accommodating. Overall, I highly recommend this cozy clean cabin for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway.

Lakeside celebration

We wanted to say a special “Happy Birthday” to a family member who enjoys a relaxing weekend. This place was perfect for that. We were able to launch our two canoes from the property, swim just off shore and entertain the kids with a little fishing. The home is simply furnished but comfortable. Everything was there to provide our family meals. We also have two dogs and felt comfortable crating them while we were out on the lake. All in all a great weekend getaway.

Poor description of the home…said it slept 10, however max occupancy for sleeping arrangements is 8. Significantly smaller than I thought. Also not very private. Paper thin walls and not well ventilated. The good…it was mostly clean and the surrounding outside area was nice.

I have been staying with Vrbo for years. This is the cleanest home we have ever stayed in. The water was down so we were not able to fish from the dock. However, we enjoyed the porch and rocking chairs alot. All older adults with mobility problems we had a great time. Our rental was clean, decored wonderful and is a very peaceful enviroment. If you need to get away this is it. Thanks for letting us visit your wonderful, comfortable and clean rental.

Family Christmas

We had a family Christmas gathering at Tugaloo State Park and were unable to reserve a pet friendly cottage in the park, due to all being rented. We decided to search VRBO and came across the Cabin at Waters Edge. It was perfect for our family along with our Goldendoodle Jax. The drive to the park was easily driven and only a short distance. The cabin was exactly as it was pictured and very clean. We would l9ve to return when the lake is back to full pool as we live to fish and have a boat.

Misleading Details

First of all, this is an old refurbished trailer, not a cabin. Description says 4 bedrooms when it is actually 2 bedrooms with an office that has a murphy bed & the 4th bed is in the great room so you could stretch it into 3 bedrooms counting the office but by no means 4. The parking is ridiculous. Best things were cleanliness & back porch. High price for accommodations

Sister Getaway

The cabin was adequate for our needs and at a good price. We had some trouble with the door code after dark because the keypad was not lighted. Also, we felt the pictures were a little misleading, making it look bigger and brighter than actual. We didn't realize it was a double-wide trailer from the pictures, and also there was no dishwasher. Beds and living room furniture were comfortable.

Family fishing trip

It was such a beautiful and relaxing place! My husband and I went with our three teenage children for a family fishing trip. We caught blue gill, catfish and pike. We made s'mores one night using the gas powered fire pit right next to the water. We loved the screened in back porch with the rocking chairs and the view of the lake! And the stars were so bright! We went star gazing from the dock our first night there and was able to see many shooting stars and the Milky Way.⭐ The only thing that was a little disappointing is the pictures show the water is much higher than it actually is(it must have been an old picture). We haven't had a lot of rain in weeks, so the dock is actually on dry land not in the water, but we were still able to go fishing and we made the most of it. My 16 old son doesn't mind getting muddy so he just took off his shoes and went out into the water were it was deeper to cast his line. Over all, we had a great time and made many wonderful memories!
