Make memories at the lake!

Memories are made at Lake Hartwell. Come enjoy our home on a quiet cove in the Gumlog community just 10 minutes off of I-85 @ exit 173 in GA. Our fully furnished 3 BR/2 bath home sleeps 8 and boasts a large deck spanning the entire length of the home, looking out onto the lake. There is ample space for grilling on the gas grill, relaxing, and enjoying family and friends. There is a gentle sloping yard for outdoor games with a long meandering footpath that slopes down to the covered dock, leading to hours of lake activities. The driveway provides plenty of parking.

Our dock will accommodate your boat and the Franklin County Boat ramp is just 1 mile away.
Harbor Light Marina is just a 7 mile drive away where boat rental is available. Close by are the quaint towns of historic Lavonia and Hartwell where you will find a variety of shops and restaurants.

Other nearby activities include Tugaloo State Park, just a 9 min drive or a short paddle across the cove. Lake Hartwell State Park is just across the SC state line and a 17 min ride.

Tallulah Falls and North GA hiking trails are within a 1 hour drive of our home.

We are just about 30 minutes from shopping at Tangier Outlet Mall(south) or Anderson, SC(north), and 1 hour from the up and coming town of Greenville where there are many great restaurants and shops.

But best of all, if you are coming to the area for a Clemson football game, graduation, or parent’s weekend, this would be a great place to put your feet up. We have a large TV in the main room with access to our YouTube TV streaming service, as well as the TV in the master, for watching the games. It is a 34 mile/42 minute drive to Clemson if you are headed to the Campus.

This is a pet free/smoke free home and we ask that there be no large parties.

All the Stars
If I could give more than 5 stars, I surely would. Cozy, warm and inviting. We fished, enjoyed the cool evenings in front of the wood burning fireplace and just enjoyed the beauty that surrounded us. We were greeted by 5 deer the morning we arrived. Marty and David are amazing souls and we are so grateful they shared this little piece of heaven with us. Again, all the stars.

Great weekend
The house had everything we needed. There was actually all kinds of gear on the property and we brought more than we needed to. The house was clean and comfortable. The lake was close and in a nice, quiet neighborhood. It wasn’t a long drive at all to go eat or go into town.

Very nice and relaxing lake house
We had a wonderful stay last weekend! The house was everything we could have asked for, and the lake views from the dock were beautiful! Between the house, the yard, and the lakefront/dock there was plenty of room for all 8 of us (2 adults and 6 kids). Lots of fishing, swimming, and time spent around the fire pit made for some great memories!

Wonderful Home on the Lake
The lake house was very spacious and clean. It has a concrete walk down to the lake. The firepit with the string lights was wonderful for outside entertaining. It has a screened in back porch off the master bedroom which was also very nice. I would definitely recommend and plan to return. Very peaceful and quiet.
