Luxurious & Spacious Lake Hartwell Home

Craftsman style custom designed and decorated throughout. Builders personal home with 4000+ sq ft. with innovative ideas not yet seen in Hartwell. 6 Large Bedrooms, 4 Full Baths. Four of the six bedrooms have King beds! Main level - Master (King Suite) and Guest (Queen) Bedrooms. The private Master BR Suite includes a luxurious master bath with separate over-sized Jacuzzi jet tub and shower areas. Two bedrooms, kitchen, living room, downstairs den, dining area, and all tiled porches enjoy the big water view of Lake Hartwell! Upstairs has 2 BR's (Both Kings) with a separate reading/nursery room that can handle a queen blow up mattress for a small 7th bedroom, downstairs 2 BR’s (1 King and 2 Queens plus a set of Bunkbeds), 1 Bath, and den with wet bar. In-ground fire pit on backyard patio overlooking the lake, double garage on main. WI-FI, large flat screen HDTV, in Master Bedroom. About 30 minutes for Clemson Football and Graduations!
We have found that groups where everyone wants to be comfortable find this home the best! There are several areas to sit together both inside and outside as well as plenty of privacy for all. There are 4 Large Bedrooms with King beds. Two more Large Bedrooms support 1 Queen bed and 2 Queen beds and a set of bunkbeds respectively.
There are two bedrooms on the main floor with only one step from the garage in case anyone has difficulty climbing stairs. This allows everyone to enjoy the beauty of the lake and be in the middle of all of the fun!
You are more welcome to bring any floating devices, rings, floats, noodles, etc for your use. We kindly ask that you not leave them behind for other guests as our insurance does not allow us to provide any non-Coast Guard Approved floating devices. We will leave a few Coast Guard Approved life vests for your use.

Summer water fun is not the only wonderful thing to do around Tugalo Heights!!

Always a great stay

This is our seventh year staying at this property. The property owners are fantastic to work with and the property is always clean. The house has a great dock perfect if you have boat or just want to lay in the sun. The house is large and well suited to accommodate a large group.

Family Summer Lake Celebration

Our family of 15 with six grand children ranging from the age of 2 to 7 had a wonderful time at Tugalo Heights. The house was beautiful with enough space for all. The kitchen was well equipped. We enjoyed the fire pit and outdoor space. We also enjoyed the lake view and the dock was easily accessible and very nice. It was very helpful that one our daughters could bring her service dog with her too. Thank you Judi and Jack for being so responsive to any questions. We enjoyed making special memories with all our 4 adult children and their families at your lovely lake house. We will certainly share with others about your beautiful home.

Beautiful Clean & Spacious Home Right on the Lake

Our family of 14 ranging in ages truly enjoyed our stay at this very clean, modern home. The house is very spacious, especially the rooms. Small things go a long way with a large group. There were plenty of towels (including beach towels), starting laundry detergent etc., the kitchen is well equipped with lots of pantry space. The porch is large and relaxing, with a fan to help with the heat. The dock is also nice with the patio chairs at the top. Would recommend to any large group. Communication with owners was excellent, and they are very pet-friendly which is a nice bonus!

We love this property. This was the sixth year we have vacationed here with our friends and family. The house is well configured for a large party, always immaculately clean and in a great location on the lake. The kids enjoy swimming at the dock, and the lake is clean and enjoyable.
