Cabin on the lake

The property was great. The double decker dock on the water was fantastic for the family. We fished, swam and used the paddle board. The kids played games inside. We sat on the screened in porch while it was raining. The cabin was clean and quaint, but had more than enough room for our family of 5. It was also in close proximity to historic Anderson and other local attractions.

Great Visit

A wonderful property and peaceful setting. Not as close to Clemson University as I was hoping, but not an awful trip back and forth. Wish we could have enjoyed the lake more, but our visit was quick. Great house and hope we can visit again. Thanks!

Spring break trip

Wow what a great time. The place was amazing, very clean and a great location. Just a very short walk to the dock to get on the boat. An awesome upper deck for the wife and daughter to hang out while my son and I went fishing. Just the perfect place for a spring break getaway.

Gem at Lake Hartwell

We did a kid of know what to expect after reading all the reviews. It was a great weekend and the property was as described and even better. Very clean, tastefully renovated without killing its character. Very quiet, not too far from Clemson. The beds were very comfortable. Also enjoyed the coffee bar. We will hopefully come back one day .
