We were very pleased with the accommodations . Ut had everything we needed to feel at home away from home . The hosts were amazing . We had to cut our trip short due to weather but look forward to renting it again in warmer weather.
This property was wonderful. It was so clean and refreshing when we walked in. The house was homey and ready for our stay. Unfortunately, we didn't get to stay because the lake was dry. We had great contact with the house owner and she was so gracious in letting us cxl our reservation and gave us a full refund. She even sent us other listings that were still available. We'll definitely be back in the summer time!
I gave the property five stars all the way around. The only disappointment was one that was out of the hosts control, which was the lake was so low we couldn’t use the home for what we rented it for… the water access! We understand it happens and we’d rent from them again!

We are so happy to hear you enjoyed the property and the home! We appreciate you understanding the challenges of the lake level on Lake Hartwell. Unfortunately, due to a drought in the area our water level is lower than it typically is this time of year. It is slowly but surely coming back up, and our guests will be able to enjoy all the lake has to offer from our back door. Thankfully we are less than 5 minutes away from Greenpond Boat Landing and Portman Marina in the mean time. Thank you for taking great care of our home, and we welcome your return!
Ashley and Scott were the best. Ran into a small issue while there and they jumped on it immediately no questions asked and had it fixed as fast as they could as best as they could with a house full of people, and kept checking on us after the fact to make sure we where comfortable.The house itself is beautiful, very well kept, we will be staying again, if not for the house then definitely for the wonderful hosts. Truly the best place we have stayed at. 10/10 would recommend.
This property was quite nice. There was plenty of room for my whole family. The fire pit was nice to sit around and we were able to share movies and sports in the comfortable living area. The beds were very comfortable as well.
Great place to stay while in town for a wedding. I especially enjoyed the huge, fenced backyard. My dog didn’t want to leave! Other positives - well stocked kitchen with even a few pantry staples, two living areas for larger families, and fireplace with wood provided. I would stay again if in the area.
This property was amazing, from the clean and comfortable bedrooms to the marvelous outdoor patio and fireplace, and the hosts helping with whatever we needed, it had it all. We were in town for a Clemson game and the moment we pulled down the driveway, we were excited for the weekend! It's quiet, spacious, and had all the necessary entertainment for the time not on campus.

We are glad you enjoyed the cabin! It enjoyed speaking with you during your stay, and I am glad we located the pack n play. I am so sorry about the floors and dusty appliances, I wish I were made aware as it would have been addressed right away. I will be sure to follow up with our cleaning company. Thank you for your feedback.
This place has a beautiful quite cove on the lake. Could not believe how clean and well stocked the home was. Perfect for family to cook evening meals.Lots of places for each family member to join the fun or have a quite space.

About the host
Hosted by Ashley Sabo
We began hosting on VRBO 13 years ago with the desire of owning a vacation home and having guests enjoy it as well. Our first home was purchased in VA, and since that time we have purchased 3 others in South Carolina with this property being our most recent investment. Hosting on VRBO and hearing about the wonderful memories our guests make in these homes has since become my passion. My husband and I are originally from VA and Florida. We currently reside in Tega Cay, SC on Lake Wylie...yes we love the water (salt and fresh). My husband served in the US Marine Corp., then attended Montreat College, and I attended Clemson University and obtained my Bachelor's Degree in Nursing. We have 2 children, our son is a third-generation student at Clemson University, and our daughter is a Senior in High School. We also have two loving Labrador Retrievers, and understand the importance of traveling with your "Whole Family" (2- and 4-legged children).
Why they chose this property
We chose this area and neighborhood because it has a special meaning to our family. We have three generations of Legacy at Clemson University and currently, our son is a sophomore at Clemson. My husband enjoys fishing on Lake Hartwell and has a twin brother that owns a home on the lake as well. In addition, we liked the quiet neighborhood, and remote location, situated perfectly on Lake Hartwell. The wooded lot and secluded location feel like you are in the wilderness, yet the home is conveniently located to many restaurants, grocery stores, and amenities. We also have wonderful neighbors that create a lovely community.
What makes this property unique
We fell in love with the natural beauty of this property, the secluded wooded lot, the waterfront location, and the well-built log cabin. This property has many unique features including the very large fenced-in yard, the beautiful wrap-around porches, and the rocking chair front porch. It also offered many extras for all age groups and guests including; a two story playhouse, a secluded dining area that overlooks the lake, and a super cute doggy ramp. In addition we have since installed a nice concrete fire pit area, and a concrete walking path to allow easy access to the lake.
