About this property

On Hartwell, Private Boat Dock, Near Boat Launch

Escape to one of Lake Hartwell's most stunning lakefront retreats — a spacious 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom home nestled on deep water in the prestigious Chateau Estates neighborhood. With breathtaking lake views from nearly every room, a private dock, three wrap-around decks, and an incredible entertainment space, this is the ultimate destination for family vacations, group getaways, and everything in between.

The Outdoors

Step outside and you're immediately at the water's edge. The private dock is your launchpad for everything lake life has to offer — fish off the end, soak up the sun on the dedicated sunning area, or launch the included tubes for a day on the water. Three wrap-around decks give you front-row seats to some of the most spectacular sunsets on Lake Hartwell, with outdoor dining and seating for the whole group. Fire up the grill and make a night of it — there's plenty of space to spread out and enjoy the fresh lake air.

The Entertainment Space

Inside, the game room and bar are the heart of the home. We're talking a regulation-size pool table, full shuffleboard table, bar with pub seating, flat screen TV, and a cozy fireplace — everything you need for a night in that rivals a night out. Cornhole is available for when you want to take the competition outside.

The Kitchen

Feeding a full house is no problem here. The kitchen is fully equipped for large groups with a full-size refrigerator, double oven, gas range, dishwasher, microwave, drip coffee maker, Keurig, and french press with grinder — so whether you're cooking a big family breakfast or prepping dinner for twelve, you have everything you need.

The Bedrooms

Rest easy in one of four king bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom, plush bedding, ample closet space, and a flat-screen smart TV. A fifth bedroom with two bunk beds is perfect for kids or younger guests. All five bedrooms have WiFi-enabled TVs so everyone can unwind at their own pace.

About the host

Hosted by Anthony Wood

Host profile image
Anthony and Erynn started Southern Gem Properties with a vacation beach rental condo on Dauphin Island. We have gradually expanded and changed our properties to include large family gathering homes in the mountains and on the lake.

Why they chose this property

Privacy, and the stunning view you get when you walk in the front door (nearly 180 degree view of the lake). The home was extremely well maintained, had a fantastic layout, and we knew we could add comfortable stylish furnishings and amenities that guests would enjoy.
