We were visiting for a fishing tournament. Location to green pond was so convenient. House accommodated our two families perfectly. Easy boat parking and the water was beautiful. Kids loved the kayaks, paddle boards and canoes. If we are lucky enough to make it back to the national championship next year… we would definitly stay here again.

Great Lakehouse
Great location & wonderful hosts! My children are already asking if we can come here every summer for vacation! Everything was as expected & we had no problems! The water here is so pretty and at night the lights on the back porch look so pretty!

Nice location. There is a resturant called "The Local" right around the corner on the Lake.
Nice Lake front property. Lots of room and easy access to the boat dock. Owners were always very helpful and quick to reply. Would recommend the "Making Waves" property for your family fun.

Fun times
Property is located on a quiet cove on a quiet street. We enjoyed the kayak, canoe and wish we had rented the pontoon boat. The fire pit was a hit! Owner has made many updates to the home including bathrooms and kitchen. New paint throughout the home was very cheerful. We enjoyed dinner at The Local Pub and Eatery located very close to property. Owner was very accommodating and we enjoyed our short stay.

Relaxing
Walking into the house was very warm & welcoming. We rented the pontoon boat and had so much fun cruising around the lake. We cruised over to the Galley for Saturday dinner awesome food had the best strawberry cake for dessert. Great place to stay enjoyed every day there.

Cute and Quiet Lakefront Beauty
We loved this house and would definitely stay again. The owners were amazingly responsive to all of our needs and went out of their way to make sure our stay was enjoyable. The location is on a quiet inlet of the lake, but we had great access when using the pontoon boat we rented from the owners. We enjoyed fishing from the dock and exploring the area. The house was clean and well stocked with everything we needed for our stay. We would absolutely rent this house again.

Vacation!!!
We really enjoyed our stay at Making Waves! The house was very clean and comfortable. We did have an issue with the kitchen sink, but we contacted the home owner and he came and repaired it within a couple of hours!
My husband and 4yr grandson caught some nice fish off the dock!!
We did rent the Pontoon boat from the owners and that was awesome!!
We had a Great Week!!

Great time at the lake
This was a perfect lake vacation for our family. We rented the pontoon and had great time exploring Lake Hartwell. The house provided just as much fun swimming in the cove and endless foosball tournaments with the boys. The owners are very nice and easy to communicate with.

Beautiful Location on Lake Hartwell
This is a cute home with lake access and a dock in a quiet area. It has a large yard leading down to the lake. We rented the pontoon boat from Troy and Renee and also made use of the brand new paddle boards. The home had everything needed for a great time on the lake! Anderson, SC is close by and offers many options for eating out for dinner. We look forward to staying again! Troy and Renee went well above and beyond as hosts!

Great rental!
Great rental! Booked it for a birthday weekend with all of our friends! We had a ball! Everything was exactly as stated, super convenient! We also rented the pontoon, and brought our own two jet skis for the water! Ending the night with a great fire pit session with all of our friends in the big nice yard! We will def be staying here again for our getaways!

Waterfront charm
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this cute waterfront home. Highly recommend renting the pontoon boat during your stay. We were on the lake all 3 days of our stay. We were able to make our lunch and enjoy it at one of the private island beaches located around the lake. The evenings were spent relaxing. We had dinner out one night and the town is a short distance away. There are also several marinas in the area that were fun to visit. The house was clean and had everything we needed. We'd stay here again.

Excellent
This home is nicely appointed with everything needed to stay comfortably and to enjoy the beautiful lake. The home was exceptionally clean upon arrival. The beds are comfortable with ample linens for the bath. The kitchen has nothing missing as well.
There’s a gas grill and a charcoal grill for your needs.
It’s a short walk to the dock and beautiful views from the very quiet slough.
The air conditioning worked perfectly for our stay.
I would recommend this home for your stay, and I will return if the opportunity arises.
The renter was very responsive prior to check in. There were no issues during our 4 day stay, so thankfully we did not find it necessary to have problems resolved.
I give my recommendation that this is a GREAT property to stay in during a trip to Lake Hartwell.

Perfect Setup for a Tournament Fishing Family
The house, location and the Pontoon Boat access all worked out perfectly for our Family. We were able to enjoy the beautiful scenery on the lake during the day and watch the weigh in at Green Pond later in the afternoon. We couldn't have asked for a better setup for our situation.

Tranquility
Our family of three had a wonderful stay at the house. It has everything you need to feel comfortable but allows you to unplug from the busy lifestyle. Breakfast at the beautiful deck and s’mores at the fire pit were included in our daily routine. We rented the pontoon boat for a week which made the experience extra special. Our 6-year old appreciated the fussball table. Communication with the hosts was great!
Overall, amazing experience, and we would definitely come back.

Too short of a stay!!
Our family of four had a wonderful time at this Lake Hartwell property. We took full advantage of everything it had to offer! We rented the pontoon boat, fished, made Smores, barbecued, played foosball, played lots of Uno, swam and floated around in the lake A LOT! The house and property is just as listed, and we couldn't have asked for much more. The only thing I could've wished for was being able to stay a little longer!

just ok
House was fairly clean, It is an older house and it shows not much done in the way of up keep. I expected their to be power to the dock. and when I called to inquire about it was late the next day before we got a response. The hot water heater failed one day, was able to locate and reset a circuit breaker and it worked. Family and friends made the stay and expectations were not to high.

Fun lake getaway
The property was great!! The owners, Renee and Troy, were absolutely great to deal with. Very accommodating! We rented their boat and had a great day on the lake. We would definitely rent from them again.

Cute Lakefront Cottage
Overall a good stay. Owner was very responsive with questions about the property. Super convenient location to the boat ramps we needed for our bass fishing tournament. The interior of the house could use some more lighting. Beds were very comfortable! Driveway entrance is steep and narrow if you are backing in a boat.

We took our children (5:11-20) here for a family week together. We had the best time! It’s not often you go somewhere that all
Of them agree and have a blast! Loved it so much now looking for something nearby. We enjoyed several nights around the fire pit after a sunset cruise . Life is better at the lake and thank you so much for a fabulous experience! The beds were comfy, house clean, dock with boats and kayaks ... can’t ask for more.

Making Waves is a cozy little house situated on a quiet cove of Lake Lanier.
We spent three nights at Making Waves in February, 2019. It was the perfect place to celebrate our son's 16th birthday with 6 of his friends. The property offers a variety of activities to socialize and spend time together. Our group took advantage of all of them: fishing off the dock, using the fire pit, playing football in the yard, watching TV, playing Foosball, even taking a dip in the water! We also rented the pontoon boat and enjoyed it thoroughly even though it was cool and cloudy some of the time.
The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of room for all of us. Renee and Troy were available to answer questions we had during our stay, and always replied to our texts quickly.
It was a fun four days with no problems or disappointments. We are already talking about a return trip!

Comfortable Home, Lovely Location
House comfortably accommodated the group of 6 of us while we were in South Carolina for a regatta on Lake Hartwell. Washer/Dryer and ice machine were awesome amenities for our needs. Beds were all very comfortable. Had to contact the property owner regarding one issue during our stay and they got back to us promptly and resolved it. Would definitely stay there again!

Loved Makin’ Waves!
Our family had a wonderful vacation at Makin’ Waves in Anderson, South Carolina. The owners were great. The house had everything we needed and we really enjoyed the pontoon boat. Our family had the best time hanging out on the dock, swimming and kayaking in the cove. The beds were very comfortable and the house had all the comforts of home. Great vacation, great place!
