About this property
The Best Times at Lake Hartwell - Large Lake House near Clemson w/Pontoon Rental
This Lake Hartwell waterfront, six-bedroom home is perfect for family gatherings and get-togethers. Located on a wide cove, this area is perfect for the family who loves water sports. Down the gentle hill, the dock is equipped with a covered slip. A beautiful pontoon boat with 115 hp engine is available to rent (at an additional fee-pontoon not available during winter, December 1- February 28). There is also space on the dock for two additional boats. Two kayaks and a stand-up paddle board are available to explore the lake. Enjoy the beautiful views of the lake from the house while relaxing on the deck.
The modern lake house includes a large living area with a fireplace, hardwood floors, and 65” SmartTV with DirecTV making your game day gathering complete! There is a gaming table/bar, a dart board, as well as board games for the whole family to enjoy. The large, well-equipped kitchen features entertaining essentials and opens to the dining area, and the grills on the deck provide the perfect arena for the family grill-master.
For your convenience, there is a laundry room with an additional refrigerator as well as a bright sunroom, bedroom and bathroom on the main floor. Upstairs, the impressive master suite has a king bed, private bathroom with a garden tub and separate shower, as well as an adjoining kids’ room that sleeps three. Down the hall, you’ll find three additional bedrooms – two with queen beds, one with a king—and a full bathroom.
Just a few miles off I-85, Exit 11, this quiet property is conveniently located to Clemson University, restaurants, and shopping.
This comfortable home is ideal for large families with children, football weekends, and get-togethers with friends. The Best Times await you at the lake!
