Vacation rentals with a kayak in Lake Hartwell

My wife and I felt at home and very peaceful. We fell in love with this place and the hosts were incredible. Best Airbnb I’ve ever stayed at. Can’t wait to go back!

House is beautiful and almost new so everything was nice and clean inside, even though the house lacks good linens, not enough blankets, pillows or towels, also the two master bedrooms offer no closets, so no hanging is available. We were a family of 9 there were not enough glasses or plates and lacks enough counter appliances. The two BBQ gas tanks were empty so we lost the opportunity to BBQ when we did the purchase, fortunately it was brought to us a couple of days later. Neighborhood is very nice and quiet and the view is fantastic, even though location may feel a bit too remote.

What a serene and peaceful way to bring in the new year and celebrate my partner's birthday all coupled with unbeatable lakes views. We had an amazing time, went on several hikes, had great coffee, and just relaxed. The host was responsive and accommodating as we requested a later check out for a slower morning and it was immediately granted. If you want to get away for some peace and quite or sprinkle your stay with activity, your choice but this place is where you should stay.

Beautiful home! Gorgeous lake views! Beds were comfortable, house was clean and plenty of space for our group of 12. We will be back!

Sunsets and Siestas was fantastic! Alan and Sylvia were responsive and friendly leading up to and during our stay. The home was very well equipped with furnishings, bedding, etc. The kitchen was a huge success. We were amazed at how many amenities were in the kitchen. We cooked everyday and the kitchen was well appointed with dual ovens and many other great features and appliances. The new Weber grill outside was also a great added feature! Our entire family of 16 had plenty of space to enjoy the house, pool, boat dock, and outdoor fireplace/hot tub area! I highly recommend Sunsets and Siestas! Lake Keowee and the entire area is full of outdoor adventures and fun for all ages.

This lake cottage is wonderful and has every amenity you could think of. The view of the lake is beautiful and the kayaks and dock are great! The place is well-stocked with everything- shampoo, conditioner, soap, laundry soap, garbage bags, seasonings, kitchenware, and even coffee pods. We enjoyed our time and would definitely like to stay again.

Beautiful spacious home in an exceptionally tranquil setting. The amenities available in the home exceeded expectations. I would highly recommend this home and would love to return there if ever in the area again.

Will for sure be back. So relaxing and beautiful..

Beautiful house in the middle of the peaceful woods right above Lake Hartwell that has everything you ever dreamed of and is wonderful for any time of the year! The owners are really friendly and have equipped the space with everything you need for a perfect stay, great for both vacation and remote work. The two-story indoor space is comfortable and tastefully decorated. The spacious upstairs porch with table, chairs, grill, and TV is also a great living and working area. Plus there’s a covered dock with chairs to enjoy the lake scene while soaking up the sun, kayaks to explore the inlets, and even a firepit for well-rounded outdoor living!

Amazing place to spend quality time with the family and your fur babies…everything was incredible

Stayed for about 3 weeks for work and enjoyed the area. Very peaceful location right on the water. Felt right at home the whole time

Beautiful house and well stocked. Appreciated the responsiveness from the host. Would definitely book again!

This was the perfect family-friendly spot for our Easter weekend stay. The host Bryan and Gina thoughtfully provided extra special details through the cottage, making the stay even more memorable.

Super easy to get in and out and worked out well over thanksgiving. They have great lake access so we need to return in summer!

Christy’s home was perfect for our first Christmas away from home. The view of the lake was beautiful to wake up to every morning and we felt comfortable as soon as we walked through the door. The kitchen was well-equipped with dishes, pots, pans, and utensils. She even left a S’mores kit - which we made good use of with the fire pit! Would love to come back here in the summer to make use of the lake and the kayaks!

Beautiful peaceful escape. Perfectly decorated and well appointed.

The perfect cabin by the lake! It has everything you need by far the best cabin lake house we have ever stayed in. Thank you for being an awesome host, we will see you next year!

Our stay at this A-frame cabin was absolutely perfect. The space is beautifully designed, with great attention to detail and a fully equipped setup that made our experience seamless. Every corner felt intentional and inviting. The hosts, Thomas & Morgan, were incredibly communicative and made sure everything was smooth from start to finish. We truly appreciated their hospitality. This is a place we would absolutely return to, highly recommend!

We loved our stay at Jonathan's home! We took our boat and was able to put in right around the corner and dock at the house. We wanted a nice, quiet last lake weekend and we sure got it. When we weren't on the water, we spent the majority of our time in the screened back porch area. The weather was amazing and we watched The Dawgs beat Auburn before sitting out in the dark, listening to the owls. We watched a family of deer while having our breakfast each morning in the porch area and just really enjoyed being away from our busy day to day world. Thank you Jonathan and Madison for sharing this wonderful lakehouse, we will definitely be back! ❤️

We absolutely loved staying at the lake house. It had absolutely everything we needed and wanted. The game room was a favorite. The kids appreciated the toys and loved the bunk beds. I appreciated all the little things like coffee and fully equipped kitchen. We cooked dinner every night and made good use of the blackstone and patio furniture. Perfect fire pit for roasting marshmallows and star gazing. Every morning we took the kayaks out and enjoyed the calm water and nature sounds. We appreciated the life jackets provided as well. If you’re looking for a peaceful adventure this place is it. You really don’t have to leave, this house has everything to make your stay great. We did venture to Helen and other places to hike and see waterfalls. The only thing I can think of is maybe adding a gate to the deck at both ends to prevent littles from escaping to the water. We just kept the doors locked to ensure safety. 10/10 recommend and would love to come back.

This host was wonderful to work with. They have been very responsive to us when we needed to contact them. Have been very accommodating to our ever changing schedule. This host has gone over and beyond to meet our needs. We highly recommend them to anyone needing lodging accommodations in this area.

Perfect Lake Hartwell gem, so close to Clemson and right on the lake. So many beds! Wonderful multiple family house!

The little blue house on the lake was absolutely gorgeous! My husband and I enjoyed our time there thoroughly! The views were stunning, and the house was quaint and clean ❤️

Scott was responsive to all requests/concerns we had during our stay. The amenities are A+ and the cabin is very spacious with multiple areas to congregate or separate! With the exception of hiking Station Cove Falls trail, attending a Christmas Eve service, and fishing at a childhood fishing spot, we found that the amenities of this cabin were very sufficient for the 5 days we were there. An important detail to note on this review is that the bedroom on the main level has a queen bed. The other 3 bedrooms are up a very steep flight of stairs. The room with the king-sized bed does not have a single bed, as indicated on the site. For my family of 6 adults, we found that this cabin sleeps only 5 comfortably. There are 2 cots, one on the upper level and one on the basement level along with a futon-style sofa. Scott has put a lot of thought into making this property a vacation home waiting to make special memories for families who stay here!
