Quaint, Cozy, and Quiet Cabin on Lake Hartwell w\/deep water dock
About this cabin rental
Pull up to your dream getaway at the most charming, coziest cabin on Lake Hartwell! Stroll down the rustic railroad tie steps to the front porch that seats two, and be sure to enjoy the peace and beauty of the surrounding area. Inside, this precious cabin boasts traditional wooden cabin interior with soaring ceilings and a primitive, stone fireplace. Sit back and enjoy the 4k flat screen TV or cozy up in a fluffy blanket and read your favorite book. The living room opens to the delightful kitchen with granite countertops and quality appliances, whose large windows overlook the beautiful waters of your Lake Hartwell cove. Sit and enjoy some delicious country cooking or perhaps the fresh fish caught just off your dock at the rustic dining table, or pull a stool up to the wooden bar just above the quaint spiral staircase that leads down to the second bedroom. On the main floor, enjoy the open feel of the vaulted ceilings in the master bedroom and perhaps roam out through the double french doors to soak up the morning sunshine on the screened porch. Downstairs in the second bedroom, you will enjoy views of the exterior back decks and the lake water. Head out the french door for easy access to the exterior living spaces and wooden walkway to your private dock. The expansive exterior living spaces consist of five different decks nestled under the green canopy of trees that act as nature's air conditioning. Enjoy the quaint screened porch at the top or head out to the grilling deck to cook some good eats on the large, gas grill. Down a few steps hang a right for an outdoor living room with a flat screen television and views of the surrounding forest and views of the water. The middle deck boasts an outdoor shower and small common area. Down a few steps from there lies a large sun deck & a fire table where you can soak up the sunshine or sit around the fire and overlook the peaceful cove. If you want to get your fishing and swimming on, grab your fishing poles head down to your private dock in deep water. The cove is like a natural swimming pool, with the sounds of running water from a connecting stream as nature's music. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and unwind in the country, this cozy cabin on the water is the perfect spot for you! For those wanting to bring their own boat to park at the private dock, there is a neighborhood boat ramp conveniently located just down the street! Local boating attractions include a cove with a beautiful waterfall to explore located about 200 yards from the dock, Tilly's Tiki Bar and Grill which is located about 10 mins away by boat, and local islands known for their summer boat parties such as the famous Party Island which are also about 10 minutes away by boat. For the fisherman out there, Lake Hartwell boasts a dense population of fish and has even been home to Bassmaster competitions for the last two years. If you are a Clemson football fan, you are in luck! The Clemson stadium is just a short 30-minute drive away. In addition, downtown Greenville, which is one of the most sought-after downtown atmospheres in the country, is exactly 45 minutes away. For convenience, the city of Anderson is 20 minutes away. Bring your bathing suits, your fishing poles, and your boat, and be ready to relax in the country, unwind by the still waters, and have the time of your life! Note: The walkway to the cabin & down to the dock may not be conducive for some elderly &/or those with physical disabilities - please see photos for reference to help make decisions!

Nice house, great view of the lake and trees. Very quiet, squirrels were working overtime keeping up with the falling acorns. Lots of great deck space in the back. Outside TV room was a bonus for watching football.

This multi-level lakeside cabin is comfortable and cozy. We especially enjoyed warming by the fire table on the lower balcony overlooking Lake Hartwell. The furniture and decor are tasteful and appliances are up to date and in good working order. Booking and check-in were flawless.

The house was located in a quiet neighborhood. The home was very clean, nicely decorated and comfortable. The outside decks were well set up with various places to hang out. We didn't have time to explore the lake but maybe next trip. I would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful property. Well thought out design and layout. Very steep long walk from house to dock but nice little fishing dock🙂

We had a great time at the Pangle Cabin! The cabin was clean and as described. It had everything we needed and more. Beds were comfy, loved all the sitting areas. There are a lot of stairs, so don’t book if that is a problem for you. We hope to return in the future.

And well maintained immaculately cleaned cabin. Property owner responds immediately. This property is well listed everything was very accurate. Very good Wi-Fi for on the lake! We had zero issues The only slight problem we had was the upstairs bed was a very old box spring bed. However downstairs bed is very comfortable! The dock is much bigger than pictured. Plenty of room to swim around and fish

We arrived at night but was very easy to find. The lighting is great and it's a cozy little cottage. Quiet area and a great little dock with plenty of fish to catch if you want to fish. We were there to give away a scholarship in honor of my son for the national high school fishing tournament and it was perfect and not too far of a drive at all to green landing. It was the perfect place to stay for us. We loved the outside TV area at night. This place I highly recommend for 4 people but no more than that will work. Only one bathroom makes it a little hard if you stay in the room downstairs but it's a great place. Will definitely stay again.

Awesome place! Our 10 year old grandson loved the outdoor living area. We had a great time in the lake. Loved the "feel" of the place!
5.0
This little house has so much character. The decorations fit so well with the interior. It is thoughtfully stocked with pretty much everything you need. The dock slip is great for up to about a 22' boat and the cove is calm and well off the main part of the lake, so your boat won't be beat to death by wakes. The neighbors were warm and welcoming. Highly recommend this little place.

This cabin was a hidden treasure. Unfortunately, my husband and I could not stay as long as I wanted; but the short time we were here was amazing. It is a very peaceful place and loved the outside sitting areas. It was very clean and had everything we needed. Thank you again for sharing your cabin with us.

Fun with the family at a charming cabin with many outdoor spaces to gather! We loved a little time in the lake and a day at Clemson too!

Only thing that was on downside was steps down to front door from parking and steep steps to dock. Wife is handicapped, so was hard getting her up and down steps to front entrance. Didnt even try to get her done to decks or boatdocks. Still enjoyed immensely

Went to get away from the hustle and bustle for a couple days. The location and cabin were amazing. Just the right size for a single or couple. Everything was provided and perfect. Can't wait to go back.

The cabin was the perfect size for our escape from reality. We had an issue upon arrival and Sammy was quick to have it addressed. The master bed was very comfortable and we appreciated having the washer/dryer to use during our stay. The walk to and from the dock was quite the workout but nice to have access to the water from the property. I was not able to catch any fish from the dock but it was nice to make the attempt to catch something. Overall we were happy with our stay at the cabin.

We loved Fair Play. The cabin is incredible. Super comfortable and cozy, with an amazing deck and beautiful views. Close enough to Clemson to make game day easy, but it felt like we were in the wilderness. The cabin had all of the conveniences we needed and then some. The neighborhood (and the neighbors) were just first rate. Highly recommend Fair Play if you are looking for something near Clemson but quiet and comfortably rustic.

All was well—We enjoyed the stay—Our grandson attends Toccoa Falls College and it was not too far away—We had plenty of room for our group of 6—All was clean and neat—

This was a great place to stay for a few nights. The home itself is very cozy and clean. I would rate it 5 stars as the great things outweigh the less than great.
Pros:
-Amazing outdoor space with 5 levels of decks and front porch
-Private dock with paddleboard and canoe
-Large clean kitchen and living room space
_Stocked with all the essentials you need (except note that the owner only leaves 1 roll of toilet paper and 1 roll of paper towels)
-Would be amazing if you brought your own boat as there is a launch very close by and you can keep the boat right at the dock
Cons:
-The bathroom is extremely small (especially the shower)
-The walk down to the dock is very steep (not a problem for myself but I wouldn't recommend for small children or elderly)
-The fireplace can not be used until Oct. 1 (we were there a few days before and would have enjoyed it)
-While the home feels secluded and private even with neighbors...at night if you are a light sleeper there is a lot of loud traffic noise from the highway across the lake.

Inside was clean, but the outside was not. The chairs on the deck were filthy so we were not able to enjoy the fabulous deck. We weren’t there much because we were at a Clemson tailgate and football night game all Saturday. But when we returned home, the kitchen table was covered with ants. There is a crack in the kitchen table where food/crumbs have accumulated over a period of time that attracted ants. We killed/cleaned the table and used something to remove as much as the food buildup as possible.
Beds were comfortable.

Nice cabin and all the necessities were available for cooking and spending the week.
NO Internet - and the phone service was very low signal. We didn't have a real need for being on line but if you want to use a computer online you are out of luck.
The steps are mentioned by many people. It is a real climb to get from the lake to the house. Someone said 200 steps to the lake which is an exaggeration - there are actually 75 steps but they are pretty steep. and from the house to the parking are 14 steps that are less steep but not hadicap accessible. Not the right place if you have mobility issues. But it's an awesome, private, quiet cove with good fishing in the area if you are spry.

Insecticide could be used prior to renting. Outside windows could be cleared of webs. Over all, nice place.

My family and I totally fell in love with rustic, artistically decorated to the "T, " cozy and romantic, multidimensional Hartwell Lake House. Amazing, amazing, amazing time had by all four of us, be it fishing, jumping off the dock, reading in any of the incredible decks or aspiring to be a visual artistic and being over the moon inspired by this tranquil home. Thank you for sharing with us, we will return!!

This place was beautiful and so unique. There were different levels outside to hangout at, which I loved. The beds were comfy! The atmosphere was great. I loved the private dock area with the canoe and paddle board available for use. I will definitely come back to unwind and enjoy some time on the lake.

Such a cute little treehouse tucked right off the lake. There are A LOT of steep steps to tire out the kiddos and give the adults a good workout. It was a relaxing getaway for our family!

Beautiful place.. Plan to live on the decks and enjoy the outside. Boat ramp is nearby, dock is very well maintained... the cove is wonderful.
Yes, you can hear I-85 (about a mile away) but that is the ONLY thing that takes away from this well-provisioned getaway. I hope to get back again!!
Definite recommend!

Our family really enjoyed our time at the cabin! Cozy with really cool decorations. Clever use of multiple porch options. The canoe was a nice touch, and we simply viewed the stairs as exercise. The host was very attentive as well!

Our cabin was the perfect base of operations for our week-long fishing trip. Made for a restful, safe place to come home to after a hard day of fishing. Kitchen is superbly stocked. All you need is your food. Beds and furniture are comfortable and clean. Great view of the lake from the back decks (yep, more than one). Quiet neighborhood with wonderful neighbors.
