Holiday rentals with a fire pit 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.

Three generations and our dog had a great stay at Portman’s Paradise. It was perfect for our group size. The accommodations were exactly as shown in the photos and the home was clean and spacious. The loft room was a great additional space to relax. The view was beautiful. When the power went out in the neighborhood, the host was quick to reach out and let us know, keep us updated and was responsive to answer our questions.

We stayed here over Memorial Day weekend and absolutely loved it! The house was a cozy lakeside retreat—perfect for a relaxing mini getaway. The decor was adorable, especially the wallpaper, which added a charming touch to the space. Everything was clean and well-maintained, making our stay super comfortable. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful weekend escape!

Lakeview Lodge did not disappoint! Our family of four enjoyed our stay. The house provided fun on the lake, a ton of games, and was a drivable distance to fun day trips to Helen, Hartwell, Toccoa and Brasstown. All of our thanks to the hosts for providing a clean, cozy and comfortable stay!

We absolutely loved our stay here! It’s the perfect get away on the lake for big groups. It is in a quiet neighborhood. The kitchen is fully stocked with anything you could need. 10/10 recommend!!

We enjoyed our stay, house is amazing

Logan was an amazing host, super helpful and we will stay there again. It was everything we eanted and can't wait to stay there again.

Tammy and her house were absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond for anything we needed. The home was fully stocked and had tons of extras. This place inside and out is gorgeous and the pictures just don’t do it justice. The pool and spa were both very relaxing and very well maintained. We definitely plan on coming back whenever we are in the area again. Paddling and kayaking the lake right from the dock was a huge plus. If you ever visit Lake Hartwell - I 100/10 recommend this place!

I’m late leaving this review but we had a wonderful stay. The place looks brand new, sparkling clean, beautifully designed, and extremely comfortable. Craig and Janet couldn’t have been more friendly. We ran into Craig a few times around the property and had a really great time talking to him. We brought the boat and spent most of our days on the water. From a boating perspective, the dock is at the back of a quiet deep water cove. No worries whatsoever about water level or any kind of wake roughness, and it’s right around the corner from 18 mile creek access so drop in and take out is a breeze. It was a perfect place to retreat back to after a long day on the water. We can’t wait to come back and stay with Janet and Craig again!

Lauren and Tyler were wonderful hosts and the interior is cozy, organized, and has many heartwarming and thoughtful touches that made staying at "Base Camp" a joy! Outside there is convenient parking and a walkable neighborhood for our pups with happy, active, well cared-for kids and an older friendly neighbor to chat with. Lauren and Tyler shared suggestions for local sites and restaurants -- along with the scent of a fresh spearmint plant on the way to be planted in their garden and gave us a beautiful lily blossom that we enjoyed during our stay. At nearby "Pizza and Then Some" drive thru pick up the pizza was yum! Lauren and Tyler were welcoming, helpful and thoughtful all through our visit! Thanks so much!

Our stay was perfect! My husband and I decided to get an Airbnb with a pool for the weekend. Within moments of booking, Mark responded with a friendly hello. Upon arrival, everything was exactly as described and he had a very nice welcome basket with snacks and even drinks in the fridge for us to enjoy! The game room was awesome and full of games. We played with an 80’s arcade game machine, shot pool, shuffle board, ping pong and darts. There were board games too and the porch was absolutely beautiful, especially at night!!! We’ve decided to visit again in June and can’t wait! Thank you Mark and Candy for a very fun and relaxing weekend away from home. We thoroughly enjoyed it and will definitely be back!

We had an absolute delight staying at Cindy's place! Located in a peaceful neighborhood, and close to all the essential amenities. The property itself is immaculate, beautifully maintained, and furnished with brand-new everything. The beds are incredibly comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep. Our kids had a blast playing at the community's playground and taking leisurely strolls around the neighborhood, admiring the charming homes. This was our first experience staying in a tiny community like this, and we're so glad we discovered Cindy's gem. It's now our go-to 'second home' whenever we're in the Piedmont/Greenville, SC area. A huge thank you to Cindy and her co-hosts for providing our family with a comfortable and relaxing stay. We appreciate your hospitality!

We had a very nice couple of days at William and Lori's place in Seneca. It was cozy and nice to have a place to come home to each day after our outings of touring waterfalls in the NW part of SC. Conveniently located to everything we needed including restaurants, the parks that we visited and grocery stores, etc.

My husband stayed at Yvette's place for a work trip. it was nice and peaceful and relaxing. Beautiful setting. we would definitely recommend her place for future visits

Awesome place to stay for a couple of nights. Surprisingly a lot to do in the area. Great little place!

Karl’s place was outstanding. Super clean, cozy and relaxing, the location was amazing less than 5 minutes away from Target/Walmart and tons of others shopping centers, Karl his self was amazing , super nice and respectful. I would highly recommend this to everyone

We’ve stayed at this cabin several times, and as in the past, the location is great, it’s very clean and has a comfortable bed. There are quite a few stairs to climb to go in the door but there is a light switch at the bottom of the stairs to make it well lit. We love the location which is very close to Clayton with its great restaurants, and also close to fishing areas and hiking. We love this place!

Nothing fancy, but I had everything I needed. This is a great place to be secluded and get back to the basics of life. I felt right at home.

A little slice of true peace. Thank you for sharing this spot with us! Anyone considering it — would highly recommend. The property itself is lovely, and the community of Long Creek is incredibly welcoming and kind. We had a great stay!

Wonderful, clean cabin in beautiful setting. All the necessary amenities (and more) were there, and Kay was a wonderful and accommodating host.

We loved our vacation on the lake in Tamassee! The location was perfect. We went on 2 beautiful hikes in nearby Nantahala National Forest (highly recommend) and spent lots of time on the beautiful lake jocassee and keowee. The house had everything we needed, was private and peaceful, and we saw lots of wildlife. Tom was very responsive, but we hardly needed to reach out because we had everything we needed.

My husband and I loved our stay. Hung out with our daughter, son in law and grandson on the porch. The bed sleeps very comfortably. Loved that we had rain at night and was lulled to sleep by the rain drops on the tin roof. It’s very peaceful and quiet. We will definitely be back and would recommend to friends and family!

Jessica and Sean are amazing hosts! The cabin itself is stunning with spectacular views. We loved that everything was as described in the pictures. The home is well-maintained, clean and organized. With big windows and a beautiful outside area, it really is the best place to stay when visiting the area.

The house was beautiful. Exactly as described. Jen and Jason were super helpful and accommodating. Due to a storm there was a loss of power and Jen and Jason were helpful about what to do and how to remedy the situation.
