About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Lakefront Home, 6BR/4BA, Open Water/Dock. Sleeps 18. Boat Rental.

DOCK HOLIDAY is the perfect home for family and friend gatherings. *** please note - 18 guests is the maximum occupancy at all times. This 3,100 square foot home is our family vacation home as well. We love it, and love sharing our space with other families and groups of friends to make wonderful memories together as we have. Our home includes 6 water view bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, 2 open concept living spaces, and a large kitchen area that can accommodate large groups under one roof which is difficult to find on Lake Hartwell.

There is ample parking for numerous guests (and boat trailers). Our home is located directly across from Sadlers Creek State Park and its wide boat ramp. In addition, the property is located only 7 miles from Green Pond Landing and its Bassmasters and Bass Angler tournaments.

The lakeside of the home includes a row of windows so that the lake can be seen from many vantage points.

Everything is on one level and includes wide hallways. As such, it is a very friendly home for guests with ambulatory challenges.

The home includes a well-appointed kitchen with plenty of prep space and two full-size refrigerators.

Guests will be able to watch TV (YouTubeTV provided) from two separate living areas (e.g., kids and adults) and wifi is available throughout the house and on the back patio.

The back yard is one of the largest, cleared field spaces you will find on the lake. In addition, the very gentle slope lends itself well to a variety of games and activities (not to mention the included horseshoe pits). There is over 250 feet of water frontage on this property.

The dock is available for you to park your own watercraft, or one from a local rental agency. We also have a 2025 Godfrey pontoon boat that is 22’, has a 150 hp motor and capacity for 15 people that may be available for rental (not included in pricing). We may have our boat parked in the covered slip (as in the photos), but the dock is still large enough to tie up other boats. A perfectly situated property for sunset views make this location among the most desirable on the lake. Local fishing charters are available. Not only is fishing and recreation on Lake Hartwell unmatched during the summer, the lake also been ranked as one of the top winter fishing destinations in the country. Lake Hartwell also ranks as one of the cleanest lakes in the country: https://www.travelandleisure.com/cleanest-lakes-in-usa-11920913

We are very close to Stone Creek Cove golf course and only 4 miles from The Oaks, Evergreen wedding venue and Huitt Farms wedding venues.

Guests travel only 22 miles to and from Clemson Football games and graduations while avoiding the main thoroughfares.

We are located approximately 50 minutes from downtown Greenville SC

2 hours from Atlanta GA

1 hour from Commerce GA (Tanger Outlets).

An hour and 10 minutes from Table Rock State Park or Oconee State park if you like hiking in the mountains.

Sadlers Creek State park is across the waterway, or 4 miles by car, with biking and hiking trails.

Chattooga River is approximately an hour away on which you can do white water rafting.

The home is privately owned and managed. We look forward to providing an exceptional getaway for your group.

Check in is after 4pm and Check out time is 10 am.

Great stay!

Our group of 11 friends have been getting together annually for many years. In recent years, we've stayed at different VRBOs, all of which were very good, but we were unanimously agreed that this VRBO is our favorite. Lots of bedrooms, lots of bathrooms, all on one floor (i.e., no stairs), and lots of gathering space inside and outside including down at the dock on the lakeshore. We definitely plan to come back !

We have gone on many vacations and rented lots of VRBO’s but this definitely ranks at the top.Thank you for sharing your home with Pearce family.
