Game Room & Deep Water Lake Hartwell Group Retreat

I've never left a negative review, but this place deserves it. Honestly, the listing borders on fraud. The place is filthy, the back yard is nothing like the listing shows and is filled with overgrown bushes and a huge downed tree that looks like someone attempted to cut up, but then gave up. The floors have huge gaps all the way around the house where quarter-round should be to complete the seam between the floor and the wall. Porches filthy, outdoor staircase rickety, covered in growing weeds. The dock railings have extremely large and thick spider webs on the entire length of the walkway, which was partially blocked by something on a handtruck. I checked in, looked around, saw that my wife would never stay at this place, so called her and told her to meet me at the Holiday Inn instead, and that's where we stayed. I never set foot in the house again, and I hope this review will save someone else from ever setting foot in it as well. This house is tired, run down, and looks like a half-hearted DIY remodel project that was never completed.

Perfect quiet lake retreat for a few days.

The dock and location were beautiful, with a great view—but it was tough to enjoy at times because of all the spiderwebs. The kitchen was large, though not well stocked for cooking for a big group. We also noticed crumbs in the cabinets when we arrived, and the interior paint was a bit worn. Once we got past those things, we were able to settle in and enjoy the stay.

House as described Had pretty much what we needed bedroom and kitchen appliances Note charcoal grill on back porch no gasFish were plentiful for the kidsNice boat dock and stairs leading into the water!Good value for price Plenty for the kids to doI suggest rent or bring boatNice size cove and outlet for tubbing off the main lake

The house was great! We had 10 adults and 3 children stay and there was plenty of room! The dock was large enough to fit all of us. We would definitely stay again for sure!! The owner reached out to us a couple of times to check if everything was ok.
