About Lake Hartwell
Lake Hartwell in the Northeast Georgia Mountains is one of the most popular recreational lakes in the country, and for good reason. With 962 miles of shoreline and almost 56,000 acres of water, this lake offers boundless areas for exploration and enjoyment. Lake properties for sale on Lake Hartwell provide easy access to the lake, and the many boat ramps and water equipment rental shops around the lake provide the essentials for a day of fun on the water. A local hot spot is Rock Quarry, where you can leap from the rocks into the lake water below.
For the fisherman, Lake Hartwell is a perfect destination. This man-made reservoir was created by Hartwell Dam located on the Savannah River, and it is filled with naturally-occurring bream, catfish, small mouth bass, walleye, and large mouth bass. If you're looking for a fishing experience akin to salt-water fishing, try your hand at the striped bass that are regularly restocked. 20-pound striped bass are common, and stripers as heavy as 60 pounds have been caught near the lakefront homes of Lake Hartwell.
If fishing isn't the only sport you love, you'll want to catch a Clemson football game. During football season, boaters on Lake Hartwell travel up the Seneca River to watch the game in the university stadium. And if golf is your sport, Hartwell Golf Club, Cateechee Golf Club, and the Stone Creek Cove Golf Course are just a few of the pristine courses overlooking the beautiful lake scenery. Golf homes for rent are available for many area courses, putting your favorite green right outside your front door. Visit GolfHomes.com for property listings and details.
Lake homes for sale have access to more than water recreation and sporting events. Hart County, Georgia borders the lake, offering a variety delicious dining options such as Backstreet BBQ and Dockside Seafood House. Lake Hartwell is bisected by Interstate 85, making daytrips to nearby locales effortless. Downtown Atlanta is only a two-hour drive away. You can listen to the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra under the stars at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre in Atlanta, take a class with the LEGO Master Model Builder at LEGOLAND Discovery Center Atlanta, or get your thrill at Six Flags Over Georgia—all within a short drive from your lake-view cabin on Lake Hartwell.
