Holiday rentals with a kayak in Lake Hartwell

I couldn't be more pleased with my first AirBnB stay. The place was clean, inviting, and well-stocked. I wasn't expecting spices, dog toys, dog bowls, dog cot, etc. The fully fenced in yard, lake access, available kayaks, and privacy are the only things I wanted and this place sure supplied! the hot tub, outdoor shower, and firepit were huge bonuses. Also, met and talked with the neighbor who is super friendly 😉 I stayed alone the first half with my dogs and got my peace in. The second half a couple girl friends joined and we thoroughly enjoyed paddling out the this little island and throwing rocks, trying to fish, etc. Enjoying using the coloring supplies, games, and grill as well! It did storm most of the week, but even that was enjoyable! 10/10 experience for us all.

Was a beautiful home, and we would happily stay again. We arrived right after storms had passed through and had no power for for first few hours. Hosts were very accommodating in making sure house still got cleaned and ready even without power. They offered to refund our first night if wanted to delay coming, and were keeping me posted almost hourly of updates. Was no fault of theirs, just Mother Nature. Loved the kayaks and all the board and card games. The deck and views are worth the whole place. Even provided s’mores supplies to make. Also the beds were extremely comfortable! Could not have asked for a better get away. Would love to return!

AMAZING! Christine’s place is an absolute gem and she is an absolutely amazing host. Everything was as planned and even more. Great lake community, really peaceful with a 2 min walk to beach area. House was perfect size and spotless. This is a great spot and Christine is super helpful and responsive. Also was surprised how short of a drive it was from all the things you could need, restaurants, stores, etc. and best of all real close to Clemson!

We had a lovely stay in Lauren's home. You feel like you're living in the Brady Bunch house! Classic 1960s everything. The beds and seating were all very comfortable, and we enjoyed the abundant decks, the hammock, the kayak, the TV... the kitchen had everything you could want, and we appreciated the extra bag of ice and cans of sparkling water they left for us. We highly recommend it. If you're more noise-sensitive, we recommend the downstairs bedroom, which is insulated from the noisier/brighter open layout of the upstairs.

Our host was so kind and for that I am so thankful! The home and property are beautiful. The kitchen is way better equipped than any other place I’ve stayed (at least 10 different ones) which is awesome if you love to cook like me and are there cooking a holiday feast! Y’all, no place will feel perfect because no other place is your own home but this place comes close. Ildi’s responsiveness and kindness are the icing on the cake. We had a simple and pleasant experience here at the lake house and that’s all that we prayed for.

Everything was as described. We did not realize that getting to the dock was a bit hard for us seniors. the fishing was great but my wife could not walk to the dock because of the steep grade and no stairs to the water level. The house was kept very nice but could use some safety handles in bathrooms for those of us a little older. Thanks for a great time. Jim and Alice

Perfect home for a lake vacation! Tracey was wonderful in making sure we had everything we needed as well as places to eat or visit! The house was very clean and had everything you could need! Can’t wait to go back!

Had a great stay here! The place is super close to the lake, which made it perfect for morning coffee with a view and quick kayak trips (they had kayaks available, which was a big plus). The house was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed — comfy beds, a well-stocked kitchen, and even a grill for evening BBQs. The area was peaceful and relaxing, but still not too far from town if you needed anything. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a chill getaway near the water!

Stayed for about 3 weeks for work and enjoyed the area. Very peaceful location right on the water. Felt right at home the whole time

I highly recommend this lakeside home for anyone seeking a relaxing and enjoyable vacation on Lake Hartwell. Our recent stay was a delightful experience, offering the perfect blend of peace, quiet, and easy access to the lake. The owners have clearly put a lot of effort into creating a welcoming and memorable experience for their guests. I would definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful relaxing week at the lake. The house was inviting and cozy and stocked with everything we needed. The exterior was very well maintained with beautiful landscaping. Mary was very helpful and responsive to any questions we had. We loved our stay and would highly recommend.

This was the ULTIMATE water sport place to be. I have 3 boys that tore it up like crazy. It felt like every water sport thing you could ever want was there. And the location was phenomenal. My only slight critique is clutter, but I am a minimalist. Highly recommend.

A lovely spot on Hartwell. We really enjoyed our time at this lakeside cottage and loved the views of the lake from the screened-in porch. It's perfect for a couples getaway or even a small family. We had everything we needed throughout our stay :) – beds were comfortable, plenty of bath towels were provided, and our hosts really thought of everything. Would absolutely stay at Bryan and Gina's lake home again!

Great location, house was very clean, and host was very helpful and responsive! Will gladly try to book again next time we visit the area!

Super easy to get in and out and worked out well over thanksgiving. They have great lake access so we need to return in summer!

Melissa was very responsive and have clear instructions. So friendly and accommodating.

We had the best time fishing all weekend there’s a beach door between Lake Hartwell, cabin location, and the town of Hartwell. The guy in the shop is really nice. Sold me shiners and minnows.. We went on to catch many different types of fish that weekend from brim to warm mouth to largemouth bass catfish and even one mystery fish that was very large (stripe bass) most likely which after leaving a rod for 15 to 20 minutes to go back to the cabin to grab a cold beer and tell my kids to stop playing video games and come fish with me again I came back to find the Rod completely gone. It was not a small rod and was not put in a position to be easily pulled off the dock. There is some monster fish out there. We grilled steaks cooked breakfast daily there and had a wonderful time watching movies at night. It was a wonderful place to stay for a weekend on our way to our Helen, Georgia trip which we do most every year. Highly recommend this place!!!

Awesome place to get away and relax. The kids had tons to do, the house and dock are full of amenities, and the hosts were super helpful and responsive. We hope to make it an annual tradition!

This place was so peaceful and relaxing. We stayed on the dock or around the fire pit. Mornings were spent drinking coffee on the deck with the gorgeous lake views. Never even turned the TV on. The house was clean and well stocked. There’s lots to do in the area as well. Definitely will be back.

Highly recommend! We enjoyed a five night stay at Sabir’s cabin and commuted to Clemson daily as our son attended basketball camp on campus. I will say this is one of the best Airbnbs we’ve ever stayed in. The cabin was warm and welcoming, spotless, and perfectly matched the description. There was no detail overlooked. It was well-stocked with everything we needed. The kitchen was supplied with more than basic necessities. While we didn’t end up using them, we were happy to find a toaster, blender, and griddle for pancakes. The beds were comfortable and bedrooms were cozy. The lake was beautiful. We really enjoyed the swing on the dock and the sunbathing mat. We brought our own kayaks as my husband enjoys his fishing kayak but that was not necessary as Sabir had two youths kayaks and one tandem for use. Overall, it was an exceptional place and I cannot wait to return again soon.

The cabin in Seneca was perfect for our 3 family vacation. The house had everything we needed and the lake access was great. All sizes of life jackets , beach towels, and kayaks were so helpful. The rooms were clean and everyone had their own space. The room downstairs for the kids was great for the few times it rained. We loved this place

I would recommend to anyone to stay at Brandi’s home! Beautiful and well done, and great for a family get away!

Loved the cottage. Right on the lake and very secluded. Great place to relax and get some work done.

We had an amazing vacation at Scott’s Airbnb. Our family ages ranged from 4 years old to 82, and everyone had a wonderful time. The property is so nice, and everything we needed to enjoy the lake and the house was right there. It was absolutely fantastic!! Our adventures included white water rafting for some of our group in the nearby Chattooga river via a raft company. And based on our host’s recommendations - We also hiked and visited a waterfall and a cave!! Excellent time.
