About this house rental

BOOK FOR A WEEK (7 nights) AND GET 15% DISCOUNT! Come relax at Lake Place Retreat where multi-level decks overlook the quiet serenity of our deep-water cove on Lake Hartwell. Time spent at Lake Place Retreat will help you unwind with boating, swimming, hiking, or simply resting. We are minutes from Tugaloo State Park, Harbor Light Marina (boat rental available), and the Poplar Springs Boat Launch.

Lake Place Retreat features a great room with a stone fireplace, a large sunroom/dining room, hardwood floors throughout, and whitewashed shiplap walls. Watch the game on one of the flat-screen TVs or enjoy the lake view through the wall of windows in the great room. The coffee bar has a Keurig, a traditional drip machine, and a French press. Every coffee cup is different from the next so that you and your guests know whose is whose. Granite countertops complement the fully-equipped kitchen, which also includes a countertop nugget ice maker. Also on the main floor, we have a master bedroom (king) with en suite bathroom, a second bedroom (queen) with a full hall bathroom, and a laundry room with washer/dryer. Upstairs, you will find a cozy sleeping loft with two beds (twin), the third bedroom (queen) and third full bathroom with a tub-shower. A grill and rocking chairs sit on a covered side porch that joins the expansive dual-level deck overlooking the lake. Eight can easily dine on the deck at both high- and low-top tables. Yet another smaller deck can be found off the sunroom. Cozy up to a fire on our large fire pit patio with built-in benches and several Adirondack chairs. Our convenient basement storage room is stocked with two paddle boards and an assortment of floats. Bring your own fishing gear, secure a fishing license, and you'll be set. A gently sloping lot with a pea gravel path guides you toward the single-slip covered dock. The deep-water cove opens to Lake Hartwell's pristine 56,000 acres, where you can enjoy all aspects of water sports, fishing, and swimming.

Minutes away lies historic Lavonia where little shops and restaurants offer a pleasant change from the hustle and bustle of the city. A 30-minute drive will take you Commerce, GA, home to the Tanger Outlets. Clemson University's famous Death Valley stadium is about 45 minutes away. An hour's drive southeast offers the great dining and night life of Athens, GA, or head straight down I-85 for shopping at the Mall of Georgia in Buford. An hour north, you can find yourself in the highly-acclaimed Greenville, SC, complete with its Reedy River Falls Park and famous Swamp Rabbit Trail for biking and hiking enthusiasts. Want a scenic drive? Head west from our place, and in about an hour, you'll be in the quaint Alpine town of Helen in the North Georgia mountains.

Please note that while we encourage families, our home is not baby-proofed. We are the perfect spot for multi-generations to stay together away from the stuffy, separateness of a hotel, for the late-night bonding of a girls' trip weekend, or for a few couples who enjoy the "pre-social-media days" of true friendships and real connections. We invite you to come enjoy the charm and peacefulness of our Lake Place Retreat. We hope that our spot will become your happy place, too.

This house is AMAZING! The pictures don't do it justice! Two adults and three teenagers and we had plenty of room. The walk down from the house to the lake was easy peasy. There were paddle boards, plenty of floats and beach towels. We went on a hike at Tugaloo State Park, rented a boat for a day and drove to Greenville SC when we weren't enjoying the lake. Unfortunately we had to cut our trip short a few days due to unforeseen circumstances and the owners were absolutely amazing to work with. Would highly recommend this house again and again. We will definitely be returning! Thank you for everything!!!

Beautiful property in a quiet part of Lake Hartwell. Our family (kids and adults) had a wonderful time. The home was spacious and the back porch was lovely to relax on. Tugaloo State Park is nearby if you bring your boat. Would stay again!

This is one of the best homes our group has rented. It was very clean and well furnished. The kitchen is compact, but has everything you could need. The small porch fridge is great for soft drinks. The upstairs worked well for my nephew and his family. The four adult women shared the downstairs bedrooms. The beds were comfortable. It was nice to have 3 bathrooms. The laundry room was convenient also. A/c and ceiling fans kept the home cool during very hot weather. We were able to play games in the sunroom and others could visit or watch tv in the living room. The walk to the lake was gradual and easy to navigate. It does have one steep step. The dock worked well for launching kayaks and paddleboards. We were able to swim off it also and the water was clean. The first floor is very accessible for anyone with limited mobility, but there are steps into the home. The step to the porch is a little steep. Phone service is spotty but there is internet. The owners were very responsive to any questions. I would recommend this home and hope to rent it again.
