The property is nicely kept. It had a good view from the back deck and a great view from the boat dock. There is a great peninsula with several beaches less than a mile down the road. We liked the location so much that we bought property around the corner.

A Property Worth Booking

The property was perfect for our visit to Lake Hartwell. The property was pleasantly beyond my expectations. The location is in a quiet area. The view off the back deck makes for a is totally relaxing experience. The dock across the road is a perfect setup to enjoy the water. The boat launch is conveniently located down the road with ample parking. The home is in great condition and very clean. Nice open family room and kitchen area to relax. The hosts do a great job communicating and providing everything needed. I would not hesitate to book another stay at this property.

Very nice lake property

Cute house, perfect for our group of four adults. Very convenient for the race we were doing at the dam on Sat. morning. Things were well kept and we had everything we needed. Loved having the paved path to the dock. I would suggest a little WD-40 on the main bedroom bathroom door, hard to slip in there in the night without making noise. The neighbor dogs were friendly and welcoming. Roy even came back by the next day to check on us, that or he was checking out what was for breakfast.

My what a wonderful spot. I rented it for a preacher that was coming through and it was nothing but high praise and continuous thanks for the wonderful spot. I will be having another preacher in about a month coming through and this is on my list for them as well. Thanks so much for the wonderful place.

Nice cozy place on Lake Hartwell

We've stayed for a week at Doug and Lucy’s place in June 2025. We had a really great time, enjoyed everything. Mostly spent time on the lake - swimming, kayaking, fishing. Kids had fun at the beach and playgrounds at the Elrod Ferry Recreation Area, which is just a few minutes drive down the road. Groceries and shopping (Walmart and ALDI) are less than 10 minutes away. Overall, a very nicely located quiet place on the lake. Will definitely try to come back next year.

This property was wonderful for my family and friends in a group of 6! Very accommodating, clean, spacious, everything we needed and more! The private boat dock worked out perfect for our 22’ Tritoon & kids loved the Kayacks! The fire pit made for great s’mores & atmoshere along with yummy grilling at the house! The accommodations were perfect, and we will definitely be back.

Very relaxing stay for a quick getaway trip.

Our family of 5 enjoyed this lake house for a quick getaway to a family graduation in the area. The lake views were very relaxing and the house had everything that we needed. The kids had a great time using the kayaks. Location was very convenient to the surrounding area.

Great for any type of trip!

We loved staying here. My husband and I were here for two days and two nights just the two of us, and then our 3 year old and seven year old joined us for one day and one night. I can honestly say it was ideal for both occasions. The house (beds and sofa especially) was great for relaxing on the rainy day that we had, and the dock and kayaks were great for adults only and kids. The side dock with the fire pit was great for sunning and is in directly sunlight until almost sunset. I chose this place because several other reviews said that the dock being across the street was no big deal, and it wasn't. I actually preferred it because it made it very secluded and quiet. The kids were safe the entire time and loved the tandem kayak. I'm a runner (slow jogger), and I thoroughly enjoyed several long runs in the area. Elrod Ferry recreation is .67 miles down the road and is scenic and safe. I found the whole area very safe (sometimes more rural places scare me because of dogs, etc). We did Walmart pickup as Walmart is just down the road and were able to cook everything at the house. Downtown Hartwell has a few restaurants and is super close.
