Loving Lake Life

The place was clean & neat with a beautiful view of the lake. Wonderful deck for relaxing and taking in the lake-life spirit. Took advantage of the pool and state park next door also. Great food nearby: breakfast at the River Fork Cafe and lunch/dinner at Fork Grove BBQ.

Peaceful Solitude

We enjoyed our time at this property while 3 generations (grandparents, parent, and adult daughter) were in town to celebrate a family member’s graduation from Anderson University. We enjoyed walking to the water’s edge and taking in the beauty of the lake. My daughter and I went for nightly walks and saw many deer. Beds were comfortable!

Peaceful and relaxing

We enjoyed the quiet, peaceful condo and neighborhood. We especially liked relaxing on the porch and watching the birds and squirrels with the lake view in the background. Unfortunately the kayaks were not available for use, but we rented a pontoon at the marina instead and had so much fun cruising the lake. Easy access to Anderson, Clemson, and Greenville.

Wonderful, relaxing time!

This property was exactly as described, and Leslie might be the best hostess ever! Before we went, she emailed so much information about the area, places to see, places to eat. It was great! We saw everything and learned a ton of stuff including how to make cheese at the Forx Farm close by. The condo had all of the necessities, she thought of everything you might even think you need. Swimming in the lake was great, fishing not so great this trip, but we will be back. We spent all of our time out on the back porch, really only were inside to shower & sleep. It was so relaxing we didn't want to leave...

Spent majority of our time at the pool. Villa was very spacious. As we were visiting family, the pool was the highlight of the stay. Since we are older, the lake activities were not as much a concern.

Great condo on Lake Hartwell

We really enjoyed our stay here. The condo is very well stocked. It was clean and as described. The porch was my favorite part, it was so nice to sit there and listen to the birds and watch for wildlife. It’s a quiet, private neighborhood.

Wonderful cabin the the woods by a lake

Perfectly situated for wedding with friends in Anderson, a day on the lake with friends and pure relaxation! Weather was delightful! Had a great walk in the state park and floated for hours on the lake! Hope we come back sometime! Leslie could not have been more accommodating and helpful. Not ADA accessible but that wasn’t an issue for our group!

About the host

Hosted by Leslie Lilie

Host profile image
Our family purchased this property to use as a central gathering place where we could spend time together boating, swimming, fishing and just enjoying each other's company.

Why they chose this property

Our family has enjoyed boating at Lake Hartwell for many years and having a property right on the lake is a great treat. We loved the condo the moment we walked in because it is so comfortably laid out and the views of the lake are fantastic. Hartwell Villas is a laid back community with friendly people who also enjoy the quiet wooded property and its relaxing atmosphere.

What makes this property unique

Just step out on the open porch and the unique benefits of this condo will be immediately apparent. Besides this feast for the eyes, there is the pleasure of walking through the wooded lot to reach the waterfront and its open views of Lake Hartwell.
