We've stayed here before and really liked it. The comfort of the house, the beautiful lake setting and the proximity to our plans for the weekend made it ideal. We are returning once again this fall and we hope more times in the future.

Wonderful, relaxing stay

We had a wonderful stay at Pat & Mary's lake home, such a peaceful & relaxing place! The grounds are beautiful and well maintained and the home was very clean and had everything (and more) that we needed to fix meals at home. The dock was amazing, we had a great time floating in the lake and relaxing and enjoying the tranquility from the upper level of the dock. Pat & Mary are very friendly, wonderful people and we wouldn't hesitate to stay here again! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful property with us!

Worst rental experience. Hostile owners.

This was the worst and most stressful stay in my life, and we travel every couple of months. As soon as we got to the house the owners were there, started by telling us what not to do, said not to park by the house because they didn’t want our car block the workshop, that is connected to the house and is bigger than the house itself. They do not disclose the fact that their house it 5 feet to the left of the rental property and the workshop is connected to the rental on the right. They have been coming in 2-3 times a day without our permission. The biggest problem started when we tried to wash a blanket that smelled like body odor and the washer started to leak right away. They immediately accused us of breaking the washer and Mary said she was going to use my $3000 deposit to fix their 19 year old washer and clean up the workshop (that was not supposed to be there). She said she hasn’t washed the blankets in 15 years and never had a problem with other renters. I told her that was nasty and that is why it smelled so bad. Vrbo told me they had 2 more open cases from other renters and that them just being on the property was a violation of our privacy. On the day of our departure, the owners brought a guy and 3 of them were watching us pack. Mary once again went inside the house at 8:30 am (checkout is at 11am). We drove off at 9 am and the guy they brought to watch us and intimidate us kept following us in his car for 2 miles. Good luck if u are considering renting

Wonderful, well thought out property.

What a pleasant stay we had. Nice, secluded property on lake hartwell with a dock, spacious home which was very clean, nicely appointed and well maintained. A bonus for us is that the property owners also had a home next door. Pat and Mary were wonderful hosts, very nice people and for anyone concerned about the property owners also living on the property, they respected your privacy.. I really enjoyed meeting and chatting with them. I definately recommend this property.

Lake Front home on Lake Hartwell

As a fairly independent disabled guest who rented the place on my birthday to do some fishing, my stay at this lake front home was tons of fun! Wheelchair accessibility on the property was very good. I had no major issues getting around in the house. The doors were wide enough for my chair and I was able to access all rooms. There’s a cemented pathway that leads to the dock and is fairly accessible if you have someone to help because it is quite steep. Pat and Mary were very welcoming and the communication was great. They allowed us to take non-motorized toys for the lake and we took the canoe for a very relaxing and fun morning fishing outing. We’ve caught fish! Highly recommended for disabled guests!

Great stay

We loved our stay on Lake Hartwell! Our favorite part was the dock on the lake. It is convenient enough to other areas (within an hour) that had a lot of adventures. We took a few day trips to Mountains Rest for some great waterfall hikes and also to Tallulah Gorge and enjoyed some time on the lake in the afternoon and between adventures. The house is on a quiet cove of the lake. We enjoyed floating in the lake and sitting on the dock morning and night. A great place to relax. The house is very clean and well maintained. Pat and Mary are lovely hosts.

Fun on the Lake

We enjoyed the Master’s lake house. Pat and Mary are great hosts. I stayed with my wife and 3 grandkids (10,8,6). The kids loved the fishing and boating (we were able to rent the Master’s pontoon). We definitely plan on returning. My wife enjoyed her birthday weekend. We will definitely rent again.

Due to Hurricane Ian, I was only able to spend one night and the other memebres of my party were unable to attend. Accomodation meet all my needs. Since I was attending the Clemson game, I did not have an oppurtunity to enjoy the property. Planning a second trip the end of November.
