About this property
Cozy cabin on Lake Hartwell. Spring Break Time!! Book Today!!
We have a beautiful Cape Cod style cabin on Lake Hartwell, approx 40 min from Clemson, SC, and 45 min from Helen and the North Ga mountains. The cabin sits on a very large lot and is in a cove with only a few homes. Freedom Lake Cabin is clad in cedar and wood, inside and out and has a spacious open floor plan. The den has an open vaulted ceiling with a flat rock hearth and wood stove providing rustic lodge-like ambiance in a relaxed and comfortable setting. It is the perfect place to enjoy a relaxing vacation with family or friends.
Wooden decks wrap around most of the home, providing beautiful views of the lake and the surrounding forest. There is also a screened in section of the back deck with a table and chairs for outdoor dining. The huge front porch has rocking chairs and a porch swing and is the perfect spot to relax and read a good book or just enjoy the atmosphere.
The den area upstairs has YouTubeTV live streaming on our Roku stick. A dining area sits adjacent to the den and overlooks the lake. We also have WiFi Internet.
The home has a full kitchen upstairs complete with a JennAir range top for cooking, an electric oven, dishwasher, microwave and coffee maker. The home also has a second kitchen in the basement with a range top and a second full size fridge in the garage.
The master bedroom upstairs has a king-sized bed and is furnished with several antique pieces from the Southeastern US. The master bathroom, just off the master bedroom, is newly renovated and has a shower/tub combo. The 2nd bedroom upstairs is also furnished with several antiques from the area, including an authentic iron bed.
The home has a fully finished basement. The wood-clad den area in the basement has a TV and a karaoke machine with hundreds of songs available.
The home’s 3rd bedroom is in the basement. It has a queen sized-bed as well as a smaller twin bed. Just off this bedroom is another full bathroom with a combo shower/tub.
Outside of the home, there is a BBQ grill.
The property sits on Lake Hartwell, in a quiet cove. The oversized boat dock has a covered storage area for a boat as well as a sundeck perfect for sunbathing. Kids (and some adults) seem to love to jump off the sundeck into the lake.
Note there is a set of steps that lead down to the lake. It's not recommended for those with physical limitations.
Pontoon boat and Jet Ski rental is nearby in Lavonia and Gumlog. More information is available upon request.
Whitewater rafting and zip line tours are also nearby in Long Creek, SC, a short 45 minute drive. For more info, visit
This is truly the perfect vacation spot for families looking to get away from the big city and enjoy time together. The close proximity to Clemson and Athens also make it a perfect spot to enjoy a football weekend. Great fishing, swimming and boating await you here.

We really enjoyed our stay. The dock is in serious need of repair but the property is beautiful. Home is very spacious and fully stocked with everything you’ll need to enjoy time with your family!

Thanks Stephanie. Yes, unfortunately the dock ladder was left down before the water started to drop. When we finally got up to the dock, the ladder was jammed into the mud and the dock decking got pulled up. We will be able to fix this once the water comes up a bit more. Thanks again!!
The kitchen faucet had very water output. Other than that it was a very nice cabin.

Thanks Mark. We are on well water at the cabin and I believe sediment has gotten into the kitchen faucet and is hindering the flow. We will clear it out this weekend. Thanks for the heads up!!
This lake house was great. the easy booking, great host, simple check-in, all amenities & house was fully stocked. We even got some snow, so the view was awesome! 10/10! Will definitely be back! This was a great weekend. It was quiet, peaceful and relaxing. It’s very close to stores and restaurants. Perfect place!!!!
We enjoyed our stay at the cabin, it was clean and well stocked. Communication with the host was very easy and he responded pretty quickly. We will definitely be booking again!!
Great spot to enjoy some family quality time! Tons of room! Nice peaceful cabin with private boat dock, just off the back door. We will be back again, thank you!
Easy to find cabin as we got excellent instructions. Plenty of room and nice to have 2-1/2 bathrooms! Certainly enjoyed the early morning on screen porch and swinging on dock late in the evening. Would love to visit again!
We arrived on a Tuesday and check in was effortless. Plenty of room for entire family of 10. Lake was beautiful and we really enjoyed the front porch. We knew the walk to the dock was steep but you really get your exercise. We loved the cabin and the host was the greatest.

Great house right by the lake!
The house was spacious and clean. More kitchen gadgets than I imagined! Nice dock with lovely bench swing and clean water for swimming. The owners were always available to help and went out of their way to accommodate us. Will definitely rent again! Thanks!

This cabin worked just fine for a 3 person work trip. The stairs to the basement can be tricky if carrying a load, but there is a back door on the basement level for convenience. Communication was excellent!

Bigger and better than expected
We were pleasantly surprised at the size of this home. it was well quipped with lots of space. I especially enjoyed the swings on the front porch and dock. The owner was quick to respond to my emails and questions and was very easy to work with when we decided to board our dog rather than take him along. I hope to return to this quiet haven again. Would definitely recommend this property.

Wife's dad passed away unexpectedly. Daughter graduated high school. All the arrangements where complete exhaustion. We chose a vacation for a break and to be with family.
My husband and youngest son fished in the National Fishers of Men Bass Tournament on Lake Hartwell. The property was perfectly located close to launches for scouting and also near Greenpond Landing for the weigh in. There were several activities nearby for the kids to enjoy. The cabin was lovely located in a very quiet neighborhood. GPS brought us right to the front door.
