About this property

Our Happy Place! Amazing Vacation Home on Lake Hartwell

Our beautiful lakefront home is perfect for a large family or multi-family vacation. The living space is spread over three levels and includes a large deck. The main level includes one bedroom (king sized bed), one bathroom, the main living room area overlooking the lake, the kitchen, dining area, fire place and big screen TV. The first floor (basement) has two bedrooms (1 with a king bed and 1 with a queen bed both have an adjoining bathroom), a living area with a fireplace, pool table, big screen TV, bar/kitchenette area and lake front walk out. The third floor includes two bedrooms (2 queen sized beds in one and one queen sized bed in the other) and one bathroom.

We have a large gently slopping yard leading to a large covered dock with one boat slip and dual jets ski lifts. We also have ample parking (driveways on both sides of the house, across the front and across the street).

For those who have a larger party, we have a second home (VRBO #1893465) and we offer a discount when renting both. The two homes are separated by 5 other homes, making it easy to walk back and forth.

We are just 20 minutes from Seneca for shopping and dining, 30 minutes from Clemson (great for football weekends) and Anderson and 90 minutes from Atlanta.

For those who enjoy golf the Chickasaw Point 18 hole course is less than 15 minutes away.

5 stars---The place was perfect. The furnishings were perfect as well, plenty of towels, in the kitchen, plenty of plates and glasses ass well as utensils, the outdoor furnishings, and of course the dock for our boat. We are very very pleased. One thing, the outdoor grill, it was a disappointment, the flames only heated up to about 1/8th of an inch and we could not grill due to that situation. It needs to be replaced. Also, we asked about the propane gas tanks, 2 were there as stated, one was empty and the other only 1/2 full, so if the grill was working properly, we might not have had enough gas. That was the only negative. We will book again next year, great location and plenty of room for out 2 families.

Family Lake Trip 2023 🚤🐟

This is by far the best lake house we have stayed in. There is so much room indoors and out. The three levels give everyone a chance to spread out and the kitchen is fabulous. Enough room to congregate after a day on the water. Thank you to the Wyche family for letting us enjoy their beautiful home.

Lake Hartwell Gem

Everything about this property lived up to the advertising. We were staying there for a Clemson football weekend and enjoyed every minute. This house has everything you need for a wonderful getaway experience. My family is thinking of renting another time for a family lake vacation. 5-Star experience from beginning to end!

This place is a gem!

We did a family and friends get together and this place was perfect. Clean, great layout with a main, upstairs, and downstairs. We loved the big kitchen and island on the main. It is very spacious with comfortable/relaxing seating both inside and outside. Excellent wifi reception. Amazing view of the lake. We enjoyed the pool table downstairs and having a fridge on the main and downstairs was very convenient. Would definitely book again. Ed R.

Good times at the lake!

Great house, well stocked, clean, superb water location! About 15 minutes by boat to Marina for fuel, food and rentals. House is close to a nicer Dollar General, Gas station, pizza place and liquor store. 3 level house with stairs inside but an easy walk from house to the dock/lake. Would definitely stay again. We love Hartwell Lake!

Fantastic vacation

My wife and I stayed for a month and our two daughters and their families who live in Atlanta visited on the weekends and sometimes during the week. The house was fantastic and well stocked with supplies. All bedrooms and bathrooms were great and ready for our arrival. The dock and lake and weather were perfect. Hosts were better than great. My wife cried when we left. We will be back next year for an even longer stay.

Great stay! Nice home, wonderful owners!

This is the second time we have stayed at a Wyche home and it was great. Debra was incredibly friendly, helpful and accommodating. Inside there was everything you need and the beds were comfortable. We were just sad the weather didn’t cooperate as we hoped to enjoy the outdoor amenities. We will definitely be back. Thank you!

Great Lake access nice sized home

Annual Family reunion / vacation nice sized home, easy walk to the lake, nice dock. Helpful property manager nearby. Owners were very helpful and responsive. Minor wishes were for more bed pillows, and an extra blanket or two. Trash service required that guests haul trash themselves to nearby collection area. Launch ramp is about 10 min from house. Overall great spot, would consider returning in the future.

This is the place

This home is amazing!! We could not have asked for more. Everything is quality. Space for nine (four generations) was more than enough. The owners went above and beyond. I can only thank them again for such a wonderful time in their beautiful home.

Awesome Times

We had a wonderful girls week. Having stayed in the house before a couple of years ago before the renovations we were excited to stay a second time. The pictures do not do the renovations justice. The kitchen, dining and living space was fabulous. The downstair bathroom and bedroom renovation was just we needed. Debra is wonderful to deal with and she is always quick to respond. I have recommended this house to several people since since my stay.

Amazing House/Yard

The house was perfect! We stay on the water ALOT, lake location very busy. Considering it was the week of July 4th and lakes can be busy but this location was busier than any we have stayed in during the 4th. We tube, ski, wake board and it was rough. Even as the week went on it was a little better but still very active with boats. Again I understand it was the busy week of year. We certainly appreciated the communication between us and the owner. They are very supportive and work hard to make their place very comfortable and inviting. Would add, additional blankets would be a benefit. Overall rating still a 5 because dock, house, yard for playing and games, excellent. We had a great vacation and have wonderful memories. Thank you!!

Awesome Family Christmas get away

This lake house is amazing! It was so clean and well decorated. Several of the rooms are very large and our party of 10 felt like we had ample space. Love the 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and the lower living space with a pool table. Everyone had hours of fun playing pool! We also enjoyed the fire pit one night before the rain came. It would be a great place to stay when it's warm enough to use the lake. The host was extremely responsive every time I sent her a question. The kitchen had everything we needed including nice sized coffee mugs. There is ample parking which was nice since we had 4 vehicles. There are plenty of games to play and puzzles to do. We would definitely stay here again! Note that the road to the house is quite winding so we were glad it was above freezing during our stay so we didn't have to worry about getting out. Also, you have to take your own trash to the local recycling area. It's not far but if you check out on a Sunday or Wednesday, it's closed so you have to carry it with you.

Great spot and n the lake

We stayed over the July 4 holiday for nine days with my family and my sister’s family and children. We had a great time using the house and the very flat backyard comparatively. We used the boat dock to dock our boat every day and enjoy beautiful lake Hartwell. We had great communication with the hosts and would certainly stay there again.

Gorgeous and Delightful

Our stay at this house was delightful, and the Christmas decorations added magic to our holiday! The house was spotless, with ample room and supplies for all ten of us to enjoy every minute. The kitchen was well-stocked, spotless and ready for use, including helpful supplements such as oil. The bathrooms had plenty of towels. The kids loved their own space, which included a pool table. There was plenty of parking for everyone - we had use of basically three driveways!Thank you for hosting!

Great Place!

The home is a well kept, beautiful, and spacious vacation home which is suitable for year round living! The winding road leading to the property was the ONLY negative as it had several hairpin turns, blind drive sections, low shoulders and ditches on each side and could be a treacherous drive, especially at night! The home is right on Lake Hartwell and the outside yard and property are also well kept and beautiful with a sitting area by the firepit, a beach, a boat dock on the lake with a slip for one boat and 2 jet skis. There is plenty of parking for all guests and visitors alike! The parking areas are also well kept! This property was so good it could be a wedding or reunion venue as it is very spacious with parking for (guessing) 20 or more cars! At dusk , the setting sun was picturesque! Sitting on the dock , beach , or firepit was very relaxing. Inside the home, most things guests need was provided, and one only needed to arrive with their luggage basically! Bedrooms were huge (3 of 5) or at least very decent size (the 2 smaller ones). All beds were king or queen size and very comfortable to sleep on (high quality mattresses probably). Pool table was nice too. Kitchen was well equipped with pans, plates, silverware and even spices for cooking! We all (8 adults and 2 children) enjoyed our stay there and wish we booked more time there to further experience the area! Overall 10 out of 10 rating for this property!
