Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Lake Hartwell

We had such a great time at the lake house. The place was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. The boat was a big hit and we spent hours out on the water. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful, and the neighbors we met were kind and friendly. We spent most evenings on the back porch just hanging out as a family and watching the deer come through the yard. Ryan was a great host. He was very helpful and always quick to respond when we had a question. It was the perfect spot to relax and make some really special memories. We would definitely come back.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Kait's. The house is spacious and the outdoor deck seating area was a nice bonus. Kait is a great communicator and gives clear instructions from self check in to checkout. We would definitely stay at her home again. -Sandy and Jim Wachholz

We had a wonderful time at Greens Cay. It was a great location on the lake and we felt comfortable and found everything we needed inside the home. I would definitely stay here again.

The entire stay was great in town for a wedding and after long days it was great to relax in a comfortable and clean home. Also everything in the house worked and worked well, like the water pressure was great and hot water was nice and hot sounds silly but nothing is better to end your day with a hot shower!! If I’m taking a trip to Clemson we will be hoping that Jami’s place is available.

Great location on the water. Close to grocery stores and restaurants as well. Large dock and deck with lots of chairs/tables. Large house with lots of space to have privacy when wanted, but also hang out together. Weather didn’t cooperate so we couldn’t take advantage of the kayaks, marina or hikes in the surrounding state parks. There was a binder listing local restaurants and the local waterfall hikes available.

Absolutely loved it!! Such a great home feel. The view and outdoor activities are great - we can’t wait to come back!

We love staying at the Extra House. This was our third or fourth time staying here. This time we desperately needed a recharge of our body, mind and soul. Words and pictures can't come close to describing what a special place this is. We had a mixed age group...11 to 74...all loved it. It has something for everybody. If you need peace, come to the Extra House. Robin is the best host. He is friendy and kind. He goes out of his way to make sure you feel at home.

We really enjoyed our stay! Laura’s team was fast at responding to any questions we had. We’ll definitely rebook with them in the future!

I couldn't be more pleased with my first AirBnB stay. The place was clean, inviting, and well-stocked. I wasn't expecting spices, dog toys, dog bowls, dog cot, etc. The fully fenced in yard, lake access, available kayaks, and privacy are the only things I wanted and this place sure supplied! the hot tub, outdoor shower, and firepit were huge bonuses. Also, met and talked with the neighbor who is super friendly 😉 I stayed alone the first half with my dogs and got my peace in. The second half a couple girl friends joined and we thoroughly enjoyed paddling out the this little island and throwing rocks, trying to fish, etc. Enjoying using the coloring supplies, games, and grill as well! It did storm most of the week, but even that was enjoyable! 10/10 experience for us all.

Beautiful and comfortable cabin! Everything was well maintained, clean, and modern. Quick walk or drive to downtown Clayton which is ADORABLE - tons of cute shops and restaurants. The swim spa is awesome and the property is lovely. Located across the street from a church that plays bells on the hour which was a sweet, small-town touch. Giant shower in the main bathroom was fabulous and parking was a breeze. Would love to stay here again in the future!

Such a beautiful home and place. We enjoyed the stay! The pool was by far our favorite just wish we had better weather to enjoy it further. Great customer service. We accidentally set the fire alarm off one night and she didn’t hesitate to message to make sure everything was okay.

Lots of space for our family, well stocked kitchen with snacks and drinks. Really enjoyed the pool and grill!

Tyler’s place was nice and comfortable. Clean beds and couches. We had a large group. My sisters and I planned on cooking daily. When I notified Tyler that one of the burners was not working he sent a maintenance employee to check it out. A new stove was installed for us to use. The children enjoyed riding their bikes in the neighborhood and wanted to get in the pool but it was too cold. We have to plan another trip. Christmas was fun at this house . Thank you Tyler for being such an awesome and responsive host!

This farmhouse vacation was the best our family has experienced so far. We have stayed at over 15 rentals via this platform and others but by far this was the best. If Amy could have controlled the weather, then the trip would have been unbelievable. The house has everything a person needs to stay comfortably. The location is peaceful. The animals come up to the fence each morning and night and allow you to pet them. One horse wants all the attention....lol. The donkeys allow you to give them love too. The house had a full kitchen, a bar area, large living room and 4 beautiful and well-furnished bedrooms. The pool was nice but only used 3 days since we had rain most days. If a person has a small group of 10ish people, this is the perfect house for you. The small neighboring towns have things to see and do. So many waterfalls in the area. You definitely won't be disappointed if you choose to go to Seneca and stay at this house. Amy, thank you for sharing your home!

Loads of character, bright and cheery. Host was super friendly and stocked the place with snacks and drinks. Very clean with plenty of towels and linens. Love all the farm animals. Great place to bring your dog with plenty space to roam.

I had a great stay at Brandon's for several days while doing some work at Clemson. It was perfect for my needs; cute, clean, nicely stocked kitchen, and peaceful. I would definitely stay there again!

Very peaceful! Right on the lake. Clear water. We love the lake so this was a great place. Make sure you bring your groceries ahead of time. 25 mins to the closest grocery store. Loved our stay.

Great cabin! We enjoyed using the kayaks and paddle board which were easy to launch at the boat ramp down the street. Home had much more space than we thought which was a nice plus. Owners are very responsive and also provided good recommendations. The home is near (15-20 minutes) from Harbor Light Marina which is convenient for renting boats on Lake Hartwell. Awesome experience for my family of 6!

Do yourself a favor and bring your own pillows! Other than that, it’s a great vacation location and experience!

Such a quaint cute home. Everything we needed while we were there. 1 recommendation is to put house number on front of house as there are 2 homes side by side that look very much alike and we were unsure which home we were checking in to. Download instructions before you get there as you will most likely lose signal.

Chasing Shade was exactly as described. We’ve been going to Reed Creek for over 30 years, so it was fun to stay near the SC part of the lake. The house is close to everything. Even though it’s on a busy road, it’s set far enough back and has a huge yard. We loved that it was dog friendly, so that we could travel with our labradoodle. The decks and dock have great views of the lake. Swimming and fishing right off the dock was perfect. We even caught some fish! The kitchen and house were well stocked with necessities and more. It was nice to have inflatables and beach towels. The beds were very comfortable. Overall - a solid 5 star property!

Our family had a great stay! We spent most of our time hanging out with the kids in the basement and had a great time! The beds are very comfortable and the host was very responsive to all of our questions and things that came up during our stay. My only thing to note is the walk down to the dock. It was a bit challenging for me because I am on disability and it is a bit steep. Overall, it is a wonderful house and private. The house was well stocked with things you may need and then some. My kids loved it!

The home was exactly what we needed for a long weekend. Located in a very pleasant and comfortable neighborhood. Everything about the process went smoothly. Owners responded promptly to any questions I had.

Great little place to stay on the lake. House was as pictured and had plenty of beds. Kitchen had pretty much what’s needed for basic meals, we cooked inside everyday. What I didn’t expect was how big the yard was, the kids had plenty of room and I wish I would’ve brought some yard toys. It’s a nice part of Lake Hartwell, the dock was a major bonus for the kids to jump from. Canoe and kayaks are a thoughtful bonus that aren’t always available for use with other rentals. The neighborhood is quiet and I felt comfortable taking a morning walk alone down the country roads. Host is very responsive and pleasant.
