Anglers love this property! We offer plenty of room for boat and/or trailer parking, Green Pond Landing is only 5 miles from the home, and there are 2 excellent Bait and Tackle shops right around the corner. We have hosted anglers from the Bassmasters, Junior Bassmasters, and many other tournaments.

A security camera is placed on the front porch for additional security while the home is vacant and during turnover; however, we do not keep it on while you occupy the home. The lake level fluctuates on Lake Hartwell and traditionally has lower levels from September into the Fall months. However, the water level replenishes from January - July, and there is plenty of water at the dock for boat access and enjoyment of all the water amenities and activities we provide at the property.
This home is the perfect spot to escape the hustle and bustle, relax, and enjoy what matters the most, the family and/or friends around you!

This property was amazing, from the clean and comfortable bedrooms to the marvelous outdoor patio and fireplace, and the hosts helping with whatever we needed, it had it all. We were in town for a Clemson game and the moment we pulled down the driveway, we were excited for the weekend! It's quiet, spacious, and had all the necessary entertainment for the time not on campus.

Great place for a family getaway!

We had a great weekend staying here! The entire house was clean, well stocked, and comfortable. We appreciated firewood being on site to use at the fire pit as well as the games, puzzles, and equipment to use the dock. The owner was quick to respond and answer any questions we had. We would definitely recommend staying here!

Great family trip

We went on vacation to this beautiful home with 11 people. It was a great location, well equipped and completely fit our needs. There were a few things we wished it had had in the kitchen (more storage bowls and a better can opener) but overall loved the property. Ashley was great to work with and answered all my questions. We would totally go back!

Super clean, perfect property for dogs

This was the best lake house! It was very clean and the house was spacious with lots of outdoor living space. Fully fenced-in, large yard was great for dogs and kids. Steep, somewhat treacherous walk down to the lake, but nice location on a quiet inlet. Perfect for paddle boarding. Owner was very responsive and friendly. Highly recommend this place!

Wonderful Experience

Most relaxing property and lots of things to entertain the children. High fence to discourage children from lake waters but still a very nice view. I expect it would be amazing had we been able to light the fire pit but unfortunately we didn’t have the time because of family obligations. Thank you to the owners for sharing your home with us!

Great Log Cabin Home!

Our group of ten had a great time at this vacation home. The lake was low so we never went down to the dock. We were there for an outdoor concert, and it was a short drive into town. I wouldn't recommend the lower-level sofa bed for older adults but it's probably fine for kids and younger folks. We enjoyed the outdoor deck, corn hole and our entire stay. The home was really clean with plenty of fluffy towels, TP, etc. It looked very pet friendly with an outdoor ramp that went into the fenced-in back yard. Great time overall!

Home Away from Home

Lovely setting nestled in the landscape away from the hustle and bustle but close enough to everything you have need of. This charming cabin had all the touches of home and was well stocked. Plenty of pillows, linens and fully stocked kitchen. We hosted several people for an evening of fun, seating wasn't a problem. Plenty of parking. It rained or we would have taken advantage of many beautiful photo opportunities outdoors. The deer greeting us in the morning was a special treat. Don't miss the opportunity to enjoy such a gem while staying near Anderson.

Extended Stay at Tigertown Lake Escape

We made an extended stay in July while we visited our Clemson daughter. The property met all of our expectations and was the perfect home away from home. But with lake access, kayaks, firepit, 1+ acre, a fantastic deck with nice views for morning coffee and dinners outside, and a great place for our dog. So it's not exactly like home, which is just the point :) There was plenty of space for visits from family in Atlanta and Virginia to come see us and join in the fun for a few days. The owners work hard to make sure their guests have an enjoyable stay and our very attentive. We had no issues and only fun!

Wonderful home!

We loved our stay here, and the hosts were very communicative and helpful. The home was comfortable and had plenty of space for a multi-family vacation. We loved that the yard was fenced in but plenty spacious for kids to run and play. The only downside was the lake was more of a mud pit, because the lake levels were so low. It wasn’t possible to rent a boat to dock there, or to swim. The kayaks available were great though, and allowed for kayaking to deeper parts of the lake to swim. Even with the lake low, the host communicated this in advance, were very accommodating and flexible, and had plenty of things for us to do with the kids (including s’mores and a slip and slide). We loved our long weekend away here!

70th Birthday

We surprised my mom with a 70th birthday lake weekend! The house quite comfortably house my parents and our family of 4, including a 14 and 17 year old. We all had plenty of space. Everything in the home was very clean and the upgraded bathrooms were nice. We also took two small dogs, and the fenced in property was great. The very large deck was great to grill out, eat outside, and play cornhole. The only issues we had were the walk to the lake was very steep, and my dad has knee issues, which made it a bit difficult for him to comfortably go up and down the hill. Also, this time of year, that area of the lake is exremely shallow. It was probably about 2-3 feet deep at the dock, which made it tricky to get in and out our pontoon, BUT my dad and husband put their heads together, and we did it! However, the shallow water was fine for paddle boating and kyaking. You were not able to swim at this dock. We also enjoyed roasting birthday smores in the fire pit. Overall, it is a beautiful and relaxing house. Perfect for a family get away!

About the host

Hosted by Ashley Sabo

Host profile image
We began hosting on VRBO 13 years ago with the desire of owning a vacation home and having guests enjoy it as well. Our first home was purchased in VA, and since that time we have purchased 3 others in South Carolina with this property being our most recent investment. Hosting on VRBO and hearing about the wonderful memories our guests make in these homes has since become my passion.
My husband and I are originally from VA and Florida. We currently reside in Tega Cay, SC on Lake Wylie...yes we love the water (salt and fresh). My husband served in the US Marine Corp., then attended Montreat College, and I attended Clemson University and obtained my Bachelor's Degree in Nursing. We have 2 children, our son is a third-generation student at Clemson University, and our daughter is a Senior in High School. We also have two loving Labrador Retrievers, and understand the importance of traveling with your "Whole Family" (2- and 4-legged children).

Why they chose this property

We chose this area and neighborhood because it has a special meaning to our family. We have three generations of Legacy at Clemson University and currently, our son is a sophomore at Clemson. My husband enjoys fishing on Lake Hartwell and has a twin brother that owns a home on the lake as well. In addition, we liked the quiet neighborhood, and remote location, situated perfectly on Lake Hartwell. The wooded lot and secluded location feel like you are in the wilderness, yet the home is conveniently located to many restaurants, grocery stores, and amenities. We also have wonderful neighbors that create a lovely community.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with the natural beauty of this property, the secluded wooded lot, the waterfront location, and the well-built log cabin. This property has many unique features including the very large fenced-in yard, the beautiful wrap-around porches, and the rocking chair front porch. It also offered many extras for all age groups and guests including; a two story playhouse, a secluded dining area that overlooks the lake, and a super cute doggy ramp. In addition we have since installed a nice concrete fire pit area, and a concrete walking path to allow easy access to the lake.
