We enjoyed our stay! The check in email was very informative and answered all of our questions before they were even asked. Lots of kitchen appliances available for use such a griddle, crock pot, hand mixer, coffee pot and Keurig. The host was very accommodating and quick to respond with any needs. This house was perfect for both my immediate family and my husband’s. Although you are unable to eat the fish caught from the lake, my children enjoyed doing catch and release. The dock provided is a floating dock, and with a lot of boat traffic can be a little rocky. Boat traffic was only at a peak on Saturday and was very light Wednesday-Friday as to be expected. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

We love this property!
We always enjoy our yearly lake trip with friends. This house had the perfect lay out for 3 couples and 5 kids. Our teens loved their own hang out space and we played games in the large family room. The dock is wonderful with deep water for jumping and diving. It’s tucked into a little cove so great for floating too. The dock has plenty of chairs, shade and table. We loved our stay and will probably be back next year!

Peaceful
We came up to celebrate our grandbaby’s 1st birthday, that lives in the area. We were able to have our children and my mother with us and what a fabulous place to stay. The huge living room overlooks the trees and lake with its large windows. Comfortable beds and nice sheets! Great water pressure! We used the kitchen and loved having a table for big family! We hope to stay here again! My boys loved fishing off the dock!

Nice property but a bit disappointing
The house and lake is beautiful! We were disappointed with the availability of communication with the host, and running out of propane on our first night. If you choose this property be prepared to being every item you will use on your trip including towels for the lake.

Delightfully refreshing reunion
Our whole family enjoyed a peaceful and fun week together over Christmas. Each person found something personally fulfilling to their personality. Whether it was skipping rocks on the lake, playing games together, watching movies, taking a walk and meeting a neighbor, sitting quietly reading a book, inspired by Bible verses posted around the house, or even seeing something that could be fixed So we could say, “We left it better than we found it!”

Fantastic house on Lake Hartwell!
My wife and I take about 1 to 2 trips a year with our group of firends. We've never stayed at Lake Hartwell before, so we weren't sure how much we'd like. I'll that staying at this house made the weekend for us. We have never thought about booking the same place twice until now! This house was very spacious, clean, and located in a very quiet private area. We had plans on going to Clemson for lunch one day, but we just could pull ourselves away from the lake. For us the big seller was the dock. The dock is huge with cover that provides shade throughout the day, but is still big enough to have a large area of full sun for most of the day. Once we finished spending most of the day swimming, floating, and relaxing. We'd go back to the house which has multiple areas for entertaining and relaxing. As a group we agreed that this was probably the best vacation rental we have stayed in yet. Last but not least, the property owner "Lance" was fanatic. I had contacted him prior to our stay with some questions about the property and he was extremely responsive and accommodating.

Thanksgiving Gathering
Lovely home on Lake Hartwell that was perfectly suited for our biennial family Thanksgiving weekend gathering of 15 members. The house provided accommodations for sleeping, food preparation, and eating for our clan. Friday, our 5 families took day trips to Toccoa, Highlands, and Greenville. Saturday was spent watching football and playing games at the house.
We were so pleased we are considering coming back in the summer to take advantage of the lake facilities.

Great, but a little overpriced
The location of this property is great if you're looking for a lake getaway. It's a beautiful spot and was perfect for our two families. We were able to rent a boat from the marina down the road (Harbor Light Marina) and it was a great way to spend a day. The home is good, big enough for our group and relatively comfortable with plenty of amenities (fire pit, grill, patio, dock, etc.). But between the nightly rental cost and all the fees and additional costs it ended up being almost $700/night. For that cost, I would expect it to be immaculate. It was a little worn and could have used a deep clean and maybe some updated mattresses. Not things I would normally be too critical about but for that price I expected a higher standard. I'm not sure how much control the owner has over the fees so it could be a VRBO thing. Overall, I would recommend this home but still think it's priced a little too high.

Toccoa Wedding
All of our 10 adult family members were very pleased with the Gumlog house. Room for everyone. The four kid members (under adult supervision) had a blast paddling the owner's Kayak. Our two night stay was too short as the main purpose of our trip was focused on a wedding. However, it would be great to come back for a lengthier stay and not be so consumed with a tight schedule.
