Cozy spot for our short stay

The cabin was cute and clean. The loft is extra space that would be perfect for youngsters. The outdoors amenities are fantastic. We were only here a couple of nights for a wedding but I'll check for this when I want a lakeside getaway in the future.

Peaceful Cabin

We loved the cabin. It was nestled in the trees overlooking the lake! The front porch swing was so delightful! Our family enjoyed how the cabin was appointed, it had good quality beds and bedding. We all rested well and enjoyed our visit.

Great stay!

We enjoyed the quaint, cozy, and comfortable cabin nestled up in the woods. Our friends rented the house next door and it was convenient to go back and forth on the little trail between the two houses. The house was very comfortable and clean, and a lot of attention was given to the comfort of guests in their stay.

Wonderful lake stay

The house was clean and new and exactly as listed/pictured. It is a short walk from their shared dock and very nice that they provide a golf cart for you that you can drive and park at their dock. Appreciated that it is pet friendly. House is well stocked with everything we needed for cooking meals and having a comfortable stay.

We had a wonderful time staying on the lake at this property. I hope to be able to do it again in the future. The house was very clean and nicely decorated. We loved sitting on the front porch. We enjoyed using the shared dock to swim and fish.

We throughly enjoyed our four day stay in this immaculate, cozy home. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to prepare meals. The beds were very comfortable.

Beautiful and Peaceful

The use of space in this cozy cabin is so impressive! The main bedroom was super comfy, and I am IN LOVE with the shower in the master bath. We never went up to the loft, so I can’t speak to that. Had all the basic amenities. Really appreciated the big yard and being able to bring our dogs on the trip! The hosts are super friendly. They sent instructions ahead of time to find the cabin and checked on us when my partner was working on our car engine in the yard to make sure we didn’t need help, but otherwise left us to our getaway. The neighborhood is so quiet and private. The neighbors we ran into when walking the dogs were friendly.

Relaxing Thanksgiving in Great House

Kids loved the house as soon as we got here. Everything is clean and new. Interior design is perfect for this house. Kitchen has new appliances and great layout. Loft was nice. Fireplace kept the home room warm easily especially loft. Played cards and games, relaxed, cooked dinner and connected with our family. Thanks so much for an enjoyable stay. May come back in summer.

Great place and better hosts

The place we stayed at was a cute 2 bedroom house with a loft. They supplied a golf cart for riding around the community and going to the dock and lake. Everything was impeccable and the location was peaceful. We took advantage of the fire pit and I did some fishing from the dock. Beautiful view of the lake from the dock. We had an issue with the coffee make and it was replaced in 10 minutes. Great service. I recommend this getaway to anyone.

Vacation on Lake Hartwell

The property was amazing in that everything in the house was very stylish and clean. The amenities were excellent. Loved the front porch with rocking chairs, and a porch swing. A fire pit was available but we did not use. We thought there was a view of the lake from the house but there wasn’t. The owners provided a golf cart to use to go to the lake. Overall the owners provided all the necessities for a fun Lake vacation. The owners were friendly and helpful in making sure everything was provided!
