Good to know

🚤 The Boat House at Lake Hartwell — Private Dock, Boat on Location, Room for Everyone Pull up to your own private dock on Lake Hartwell and let the weekend start the second you park. This isn't just a lake house — it's a full waterfront basecamp with a boat ready to go, a private dock for swimming and sunset watching, and enough space and games inside to keep a big group entertained rain or shine. On the water: Step off the private dock straight into deep, clean water. Take out our pontoon boat (available to rent — just ask!) for a day of cruising, tubing, or finding your own quiet cove. Kayaks are ready whenever you want a slower pace. Inside: With 4 bedrooms, 7 beds, and 3 full baths, this home comfortably sleeps up to 11 — ideal for multi-family trips, friend getaways, or a Clemson/UGA football weekend crew. When you're not on the water, settle in at the wet bar, challenge someone to pool or foosball, or gather around the fire pit as the sun sets over the lake. Why guests keep coming back: We're a proud Superhost with a 4.94 rating and 50+ reviews — guests consistently point to the combination of space, water access, and how easy check-in and communication are. This is the rare lake listing where you don't have to choose between "roomy" and "right on the water." 40 minutes to Clemson, an hour to UGA — perfect for game-day weekends, and quiet enough the rest of the year for a true escape.
