About this property

Lake Hartwell Family Lake House

Summary:
This single level home is filled with many family memories for the owners. They hope you will find it just as enchanting as they do. Through all the years the deck was always the hangout space. The big sugar gum tree overhanging the massive deck provides great shade and the feeling of being immersed in nature. The walk to the dock is a gentle easy slope. Guests will have full access to the dock and center slip. Durham boat landing is very close if you plan to bring your own boat.

The Space:
The main living area of this home is big and spacious with great views. There is a vintage bumper pool table that doubles as a card playing table. Great place for board games or puzzles. Enjoy having meals on the massive dining table in a patio room that has splendid views. There is also a breakfast table, stools at the kitchen island and outdoor tables.

Bedroom layout:
Main Bedroom: king with private bathroom
Bedroom 2: two queen beds with private bathroom
Bedroom 3: king bedroom with shared bathroom
Bedroom 4: queen bedroom with shared bathroom

The Neighborhood:
Fair Play Heights subdivision is a small cozy neighborhood with both full and part time residents. This home feels like you are the only one on the street. However, you do have neighbors through the woods, so please keep noise levels down between 10pm - 8am.

Other Things to Note:
Lake Hartwell lake levels fluctuate and there is no way to know where they will be at the time of your visit. It is controlled by the Army Corp of Engineers and they have control over water levels. However, Lake Hartwell is a great fishing lake. It has over 960 miles of shoreline and 55,900 acres of water. It's emerald green color makes it a beautiful lake to visit.

The fireplace is non-functioning.

Memorial weekend

About the best vacation I have had in a long time. The property is very good, rooms are nice, well equiped, the lake view and access is amazing. I would add a better barbecue, but that’s it, the property is excellent for a big group.

We enjoyed the large living room with plenty of seating. We also really liked the easy walk to the dock. The large porch was a great place to sit with a very nice view!

Don't be fooled by the pretty pictures

The house had a strong, musty smell due to ineffective HVAC in the back of the house. The refrigerator was not cold and was 'sweating' upon arrival. We waited for a couple of hours for it to cool - it did not and we had food spoil. The grill was unusable and in serious need of repair as well as there were no propane tanks that were filled for use. The left side of stovetop griddle was inoperable as well. The living room floor had food on it when arriving, and most light switches were very dirty and old - full of mold/dirt. Management company did not send code 30 minutes prior to arrival, but two minutes prior to arrival. Management company was initially responsive to fixing basic needs that are "normal and customary" according to the listing, but then became defensive and unresponsive (we tried to speak with owner but she would not return our calls and left a harsh message on VRBO message board.) after we requested a partial refund for lack of use of kitchen appliances as well as complete interruption for our family dinner due to having to wait around for HVAC repairman and other workers sent to address the many issues. Therefore, we were unable to leave property to enjoy evening on the lake due to strangers we do not know in the house with our personal belongings. Management stated that they had "done the best they could", but were unwilling to do the right thing and compensate us for lost time and money. This home is very old and needs a lot of upkeep and renovations.

Great location for summer

The house and property were clean. The furniture and beds were normal. The AC was not the greatest in the 3 other bedrooms as it could not get below 75 at night. The property does include ring camera spotlights that stay on with any movement so the sitting and porch areas at night were constantly lit with the light. The boat dock and beach area is a great area as the dock provided space for 3 boats and was in a private cove.
