About this property

Lake House with Dock, Pool, and Pet Friendly. 8 Minutes from Clemson.

A perfect lake front get-away on Lake Keowee in Seneca South Carolina! Relax by the pool overlooking the lake, or on the front porch in the shade doing the same. The pool can be heated for an additional charge.

This single-story home has been newly renovated to include a modern updated kitchen with lots of workspace and dedicated coffee bar.

The kitchen overlooks the pool, deck and almost half mile view up the lake. It is the perfect place to entertain guests, while still being able to keep an eye on the kids in the pool (of course, kids should never swim unsupervised). The backyard is fenced in as well perfect for all your furry friends!

There are 5 bedrooms total sleeping 18 guests in beds. Two have king beds, two have queen beds, and the fifth is the bunk room. It contains 4 bunk beds - two twin over twins, and two twin over fulls.

Out front, the lot is mostly level and covered in grass, perfect for a volley ball net or whatever. There is a large dock to tie your boat to, and a boat ramp on the property to launch and retrieve your boats or jet skis. Alternatively, the marina is only a couple hundred yards up the street, so is the Tiki Hut, a local bar and grill. However, it is private, so you'll need to get a membership in advance.

If you are thinking of renting a boat, contact me. We have a pontoon boat that we rent with the property to qualified persons upon request with an additional charge.

There are many shops and unique restaurants right up the road. With Clemson University about 8 miles away, and even on game day, traffic is not bad from this direction. If the outdoors is for you there are quite a few hiking trials and waterfalls to visit in the nearby area. Chattooga River is only about 30 minutes and offers some fantastic whitewater rafting for any skill level.

Normal check in as 4 p.m. An early check in may be possible. If interested, please ask, and we'll see if we can accommodate.

Please contact me with any questions.

My family had a great time at this lake house. We also had pool volleyball tournaments wvery day in the pool. Location was great. We also went white water rafting on the Chattanooga River, which is only about 30 minutes from the house.

Great week at the lake

We thoroughly enjoyed stay at this property. It worked great for us with four teenagers to entertain. We rented a boat from the marina and had no trouble using the dock to come and go. The house is well played out and equipped with anything you might need. The host was quick to respond to questions and even offered suggestions for things to do in the area. Would definitely recommend.

Nice vacation

There were several things that I was not pleased with- cleanliness could improve. It air vents had not been changed in months! We changed them ourselves! Landscape could use some TLC just to improve the quality of the property so you could actually see the sunrise and lake view. Overall we had a great time, but there was so much improvement that could make this place such a better place. Please get rid of the pontoon boat, so that the dock could be enjoyed! Cleanliness can definitely be improved!

Best place on the lake.

We have stayed on the lake many time. This place has been the best. Nice quiet cove but close to the main channel. The marina is just on the other side of the peninsula. Close to anything you need. Just an awesome place. We will definitely be staying here again.

Clemson Football Weekend

Spent the weekend with family for a Clemson football game. House is great!! Beautiful porch looking at the lake, nice fenced in backyard for our dog, and a great big kitchen which made for a nice gathering space. It was close to the grocery store and just a quick ride to campus, We would definitely stay again!

Very nice vacation house

Love the one floor living. The bedrooms are spread out which is nice for privacy and noise. Large nicely stocked kitchen. We loved the pool and the lake views! The master bedroom is great with a huge lovely bath. My only complaint is the master bed mattress is too soft.

Wonderful Thanksgiving Getaway

The view of the lake was amazing! Sunrises are soooo beautiful! The house was very nice, spacious, and in a location close to everything you could want; restaurants, shopping, hiking trails, lakes all around. The dogs really loved the fenced back yard.

FamilyFun

Perfect place for us to stay with our kids and grandkids. We have stayed all over the lake for the last 20 years and really loved the convenience of being close to grocery, restaurants and Clemson. The mountain view in the distance from the property is also surprisingly nice. The fenced yard was also wonderful for kids and pets.

Best Lake-cation ever

Lake Keowee is absolutely beautiful. Whether skiing, swimming, tubing or just cruising it is a stress free water environment for all ages. The children and teenagers enjoyed the pool and were happy to have their “animal siblings” with them. The floor plan of the house allowed us to separate grandchildren, adults and grandparents. That was a significant plus.

Great Lake location

We love the home and the location. Within minutes of everything. The view of the lake was great from the big front porch and the pool deck area house well laid out for large groups, driveway large enough to accommodate 5 vehicles. Kitchen was very nice with lots of room and well designed. We had a great time and would definitely rent this property again.

Family Reunion/ Thanksgiving

The property was lovely and perfect for a multigenerational gathering. The property is all on 1 level which was ideal. We were able to have a noisy side with kids and a quieter side for those who need extra space. Jeff was great and very responsive to an early check-in. The neighborhood is safe and quiet. Thank you Jeff for a great experience.

Overall Great Time But A Few Disappointments

The property is definitely going in the right direction and improvements are underway but unfortunately not completed. Observed disappointments, minimal TV service, advertised stereo system not functional, odor in garage, one bath low water pressure, unfinished renovations, no railings on dock, tub master bath not functional, some left over dirt prior occupants, non-functional ceiling fan outside porch. Once these shortcomings are resolved will be a great place at a great price. In its current condition believe price should be discounted.

Great pool and dock!

We really enjoyed our stay, but there are a few items I think could help others in making a choice in the future. We LOVED the fact that this property has its own ramp and dock - super convenient! We also had a wonderful time in the inground pool and appreciated being able to bring our dog and relax with the fenced-in backyard. These are luxuries that are hard to find packaged in one place! The kitchen was also well-equipped for our group of 11. There were plenty of dishes and all the cooking items we needed. We found it a little disconcerting that maintenance issues had not been addressed. Although the owner clearly states that the property is NOT in pristine condition, there were things like broken door handles and burners on the stove not igniting that had been mentioned in reviews 9 months ago -- still not addressed. Also not really an easy setup for toddlers and crawling babies. There are some hazards that made it difficult. Those things are no big deal for a group of adults, but bringing babies was not ideal at this house. Overall, it is easy to enjoy this place with the nice pool, good lake access, and stunning views. You just need to know in advance that it is not well maintained.
