From the moment we booked our stay to when we checked out, Stefania was extremely attentive and checked in on us periodically to make sure we were enjoying our stay. The cabin itself was immaculate, quiet and fully stocked with every item you may need for outdoor activities or relaxing inside. Highly recommend! We will be sure to book again next time we’re in town!

Highly recommend this Lake Hartwell Air BnB. Stefania was always very responsive within a few minutes of asking a question, and always kind and helpful. The townhouse is very nice, but what really sets it over the top were all of the thoughtful amenities Stefania incorporated, it literally had everything we needed! And probed to be a great place to bring our small pups as well. Book with confidence!

Great lake house getaway with a beautiful renovation. Stefania has thought of absolutely everything… all the creature comforts, conveniences, coffees, and even an EV charger. Perfect for families. We did fires and s’mores every night and even made pizza in the pizza oven. And Stefania had to be the most helpful and accommodating Airbnb host I’ve ever experienced. You won’t be disappointed!

Super cute and cozy. We felt right at home. Beds were comfy and the decor was beautiful. My husband enjoyed the walk to the shore of the lake to fish. He took the kayak out and also caught a few spotted bass. Thank you for the great communication and hospitality, Stefania. We’d definitely come back and stay here if we’re ever in town again.
