Main level has a 25' vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, two-story windows, wood-burning stone fireplace, large fully-stocked kitchen with all new appliances, butcher-block island, breakfast bar, and a dining room.
The loft bedroom includes a queen sized bed, two twin beds, and a full bath. Loft area also has a pull-out couch with twin mattress and view of the lake.
Basement level has a king sized bed and pull-out sofa, full bath plus a game room with pool table, 55” LED 4K Roku TV, Wii video game system and lots of board games.
There is an 800 sq/ft deck overlooking the lake with plenty of patio furniture to relax in and enjoy the view. Motion lights on all sides of the house to help in the night. Covered outdoor grilling area on the lakeside of the house with gas and charcoal grills.
There is a large driveway with loop and parking area. Additional parking available on backside of the house if you don't want to use it as a basketball court.
Gentile short slope to a two-story dock with 12' x 16' deck on top, a swimming dock on the side and a swimming ladder.

3 Kayaks are available, 2) Adult Kayaks with fishing features and 1) Child Kayak.
Our place is a pet friendly house but there is a fee of $95 per pet, per stay (2 pets maximum). This is due to the extra cleaning it takes to clean up the pet hair and the cleaning service charges us extra for this.
We have security cameras for the protection of our house. Cameras are located outside the house mounted in front of the outside doors.
We do have the ability to accommodate large groups such as family reunions, corporate functions or fishing club tournaments by renting the 2 houses next to us, #1150252vb and #3685237, if all three houses are available.

Come relax in peace & quite, and have fun on the lake.

The house was a great size to accommodate our family, and we thoroughly enjoyed the lake. The property is very clean and well maintained. These hosts are top notch! We will be back!!

Wonderful Getaway

I cannot say enough good things about this property and the hosts. They were so accommodating, and they were quick to answer questions as well as check in and see how things were going. The house was perfect for us. It was very clean upon arrival, and the layout of the house was perfect for teenagers wanting to get away and adults wanting their own time. We had a great time and cannot wait to get back up there again.

Perfect getaway

Decided to take a family trip for my husbands 60th birthday due to being unable to have a party Best decision ever. This home is perfect for a family. Spotless and the kitchen is better equipped than my own. Extremely responsive owners recommended a marina and a boat rental was also a breeze. Game room is amazing and the lake views are stunning!!!! Lovely property.

Wow! One of the best places we have stayed. Everything and I mean everything was thought of here. The kitchen was WELL stocked with everything you could possibly need for your stay just bring the food! Oh and the views off the back deck and dock were spectacular!!! We had the best time. The owners were very helpful and so easy to contact. Hoping to perhaps make this an annual trip!

Memory Maker

Our family has stayed 3 years in a row and loved it here..Very clean and spacious. Gathering at the private dock, (which now has electricity) swimming, fishing , and sunbathing were our favorite things to do.. Loved the kitchen island, so all of us could share in cooking and hanging out. Kevin was only a phone call away if we had questions. Very attentive to us! Would definitely come back again! Jaine B

Anniversary celebration

We went to this home because it accommodates 10. The home is beautiful and they have everything you could possibly need. We have 5 grandsons and they enjoyed the pool table, Pac Man machine and lots of video games. We rented a pontoon twice and everyone had a blast tubing. The only downsides for me were no trash pickup and quite a hike down to the lake for a 70 year old. I would happily recommend this home. Thanks to the host.

Relax and enjoy!

We so enjoyed this lovely lake house for our second stay for the week! The owners are readily available to answer all questions and are very gracious hosts. Our Grandchildren love this house with its huge private dock. Fishing ,boating kayaking, and swimming are just part of the experience. The downstairs game room kept us all busy and entertained! A very well stocked kitchen for a large group was awesome. There is plenty to do there and close to Clemson and Seneca. We will definitely be back again!

Great home for the Family

We rented the home for the week of Christmas 2020. It is a nice and beautiful home. The kids enjoyed the basement/game room and deck. The kitchen was fully stocked (including left over items from previous guest). An added plus, the kitchen had just been upgraded and it well exceeded our expectations. I loved that the owners stayed in contact with us. Being from Florida our only negative was no snow (smile). We really enjoyed ourselves and will definitely visit again, hopefully in the summer to take full advantage of the lake.

Clemson family football weekend.

Kevin could not have been nicer and more accommodating to us for our family football weekend at clemson. He let us check in whenever and let us stay a bit later to accommodate our return travel plans on the last day. He left a lure he had success with to aid us in our fishing which unfortunately was not successful. And they had left a while bunch of restaurant menus and we ordered in wanting to spend as much time in his beautiful house. We had a fire going and it was a magical family weekend. Highly recommend this lovely house on the lake and working with Kevin. Easily accommodated all 8 of us.

Awesome relaxing week with family

Home was wonderful. Super clean and inviting. We all loved the game room. Kids loved small beach on property. Home was well stocked with all we needed. We stayed during the week and the lake was awesome, not busy at all. Rented a boat from Clemson Marina and they have a great Monday -Thursday deal. This was our first time to this area, and I was not aware that all 3 lakes do not connect; this would have been good to know since I almost rented a boat from a marina at Lake Keowee. Also, be aware when renting a pontoon boat that you will need to take down the shade awning going under each bridge. Overall, we had a fantastic vacation and loved the lake and the house. We would for sure return!

Enjoyable stay

Our family of five spent a Spring Break week on Lake Hartwell and used this location as a home base while our oldest toured Clemson University and we did day trips in the area. The home was very clean, the listing was accurate and communications were excellent throughout the process. Our youngest two spent nearly every day fishing from the boat dock and we caught everything from catfish to perch and crappie. The home was cozy and beds were comfortable. The kitchen supplies and all appliances were everything we needed and more. WiFi service was also very good. Although the home is in a rural area, as we had hoped for, both Clemson and Seneca are within 20 minutes giving you lots of grocery and restaurant options. We were about 1:15 minutes from the Highlands and Cashiers and did dedicate one day to hiking and visiting waterfalls. There's also a nice miniature golf course about 15 minutes away from the house. Although the water was too cold for swimming, I'd imagine this would be a great summer location for families with kids for a summer getaway.

Can't say enough good things

I have rented many houses on VRBO and I have to say that this is one of the nicest. I am very OCD and a clean freak and I could not believe how immaculate and clean this house was from the minute we walked in (you don't know how much I appreciate that). The house was the perfect size for me and my husband and three teenage kids. They loved the basement and playing pool and Wii as well as using the basketball hoop and kayaks. The deck and dock were perfect for a week long lake house vacation. We were in the lake everyday and enjoyed a cup of coffee and a glass of wine every day on the deck. I really appreciate the McDonald's attention to details as hosts. Our dog passed away literally two days before our arrival and they were very vigilant when it came to giving us a pet refund and had nothing but kind words. Kevin was very helpful with fishing tips and offered to talk to my husband further. They also had great recommendations for restaurants and things to do (we ate at three of their recommendations and absolutely loved the food). Overall, an amazing week and I would stay at this house again in a minute. Side note, one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept on.
