The Vibe
This is a water park in the literal sense. Mornings start at the boat ramp, days run on the lake, and the sand beach with lake swimming pulls everyone back to the water's edge. Open horizon, easy welcome.
The lure of Lake Hartwell, to both anglers and recreation enthusiasts across the nation, is no surprise to locals who have enjoyed the wide variety of opportunities the lake has offered the area for more than 50 years. One of the jewels of the Southeast, Lake Hartwell’s 56,000 acres of water and 963 miles of shoreline make it a favored spot for recreation. Another 25,000 acres surrounding the lake is devoted to easily accessible recreation facilities.
The Point at Lake Hartwell sits on a dead-end road in Townville, SC, right on a lake with 56,000 acres of water and 963 miles of shoreline.
The Point runs RV sites with 50-amp and water hookups in pull-through layouts, with a boat ramp, dump station, and restrooms on site. Cabins and lodging plus tent sites cover every style of stay, and a dog park gives pets room to roam. Overnight rates start at $23, monthly at $675. Each site allows up to two vehicles, with free overflow parking by the pavilion. Extra pets on short-term stays run $5 each. [confirm: full hookup / amp options beyond 50-amp]
The lake itself is the headliner, with 25,000 acres of recreation facilities ringing the shoreline. Lake Hartwell State Park and Sadlers Creek State Park sit nearby for hiking, camping, and more water access, and Hart State Outdoor Recreation Area adds another lakeside option. Cateechee Golf Club is close for a round, and the Anderson County Museum covers regional history. The resort is 2.6 miles off Highway 85, with Townville and Westminster covering meals and supply runs.
