About this property
The Poolside Villa- 2queen bd, lake Keowee, golf,hike,waterfalls, near Clemson,
•The ‘Poolside Villa’ is a comfortable, upper unit, 1000 (approx) square-foot lofted condo located near the pool in a gated boating, golf & fitness minded community located along the shore of Lake Keowee in the SC foothills of the mountains. The lake can be accessed quickly as its only 5 minutes away within community. Keowee Key is a friendly gated community with walking trails & is rated in the top 10 of like communities across the nation. I want you to feel like you have your very own vacation home to return to year after year! It’s located approximately 10 miles from Clemson, Seneca & Walhalla. and the lovely quaint towns of Cashiers and Highlands, NC are approx 30 mins away. Greenville and Asheville are an hour drive. Atlanta is a 1.5-2 hour drive away. GSP airport is little over and hour drive away. Lake Jocassee, Tablerock state park and numerous waterfalls are minutes away.
**The outdoor swimming pools are CLOSED for the season!** But when open the outdoor pools are saltwater & one is just steps away from the condo, grab a beach towel out of the basket and walk over! The community fitness center has a large indoor heated pool for use as well. You can have access to all the fitness center has to offer.
•You’ll have contactless entry with a keypad at doorknob. The code will be provided the day before your arrival.
•On entry through the front door on the main floor you'll find a bedroom, laundry, bath, kitchen and large open living area flooded with light from the rear wall of windows.
•Upstairs, consist of a large carpeted loft bedroom overlooking the living area and the most comfortable bed! If you lay in bed and look out the loft to the wall of windows you feel like you’re in a tree house with all the nature in view.
•Though the rear door is a large deck with a nice view of the wooded scenery and the south side community pool, which is located just walking distance from the condo. Just grab one of the beach towels provided and walk over!
•The pool is complete with a covered cabana, sun loungers, shade umbrellas, bathrooms, tables & chairs and free WiFi. Our building is the closest to this pool! There is a larger pool located in the north side of our community at the north marina you may use. It has a fantastic view of the lake and offers gradual entry.
The heated indoor pool at the fitness center is open year round for use. In the men’s & women’s locker rooms there is a hot tub as well. May need to show gate app.
•Beach towels ARE provided and are visibly located in a large basket. Pool noodles are located in downstairs bedroom corner for your use as well. Please do not hang towels on front railings.
•Directly in front of our building, steps away, is the South Flagship walking trail, which is paved and spans from the south entrance of the community to the club entrance, approximately 2+ miles in length. Great for early morning or evening strolls. There is another walking trail called the Leisure trail, alongside the lake on the north side of our community with beautiful views as you walk. (No motorized vehicles are permitted on walking trails), your gate app allows entry to NORTH SIDE of community as well. Just drive through the member side of gate with your pass. Everyone is so friendly, be sure to say hi or strike up a conversation!
•The interior of the unit is painted, and the entry-level floors are hardwood and tile.
•The unit is equipped with fans, smoke detectors (3) as well as a carbon monoxide detector & a fire extinguisher.
•The kitchen is fully stocked with dishes, pans, glassware, wine glasses, wine opener, cooking utensils, microwave, refrigerator, stove/oven, dishwasher, toaster, & a Keurig coffee maker. Coffee pods provided.

•The community has a casual bistro restaurant where you can enjoy a meal, sandwiches or pizza. They do not take cash however. Credit card only. Or If you prefer to cook at ‘home’, you’ll find a multitude of oils & spices to season and prepare your meals with. In Seneca, 10 miles away, you can find grocery stores, tho right outside of our east gate there is a gas station, convenience store, spirits & wine store and a Dollar General for supplies not supplied. And a Subway restaurant is located outside that maintenance rd gate. Down the road near the Dollar General is a Mexican food truck restaurant.
•Do you play pickle-ball, bocce ball or shuffleboard? I can help reserve a court. (4) Pickle-ball rackets are available for your use in my unit.
• At the north marina you’ll find the larger outdoor pool along with a boating store where paddle boards and kayaks can be rented. If you’re at the North pool, various ice cream bars can be purchased inside the boating office to enjoy. (Credit card) pick up a pizza at the bistro and bring it with you to the pool!

About the host
Hosted by Donna
A few years ago I decided to downsize. So I sold my home, bought this cute villa so I could travel more but yet have a home base. You also can enjoy it and all this location has to offer in my absence. Come stay and see what so many others already know!
Why they chose this property
Location location location! Let it be your home base while you go have fun!
It’s situated right in the middle of so many outdoor activities. Hiking, waterfalls, tubing, boating/lake, mountains, Clemson! Not to forget there’s Asheville, the Biltmore Estate and the beautiful Georgia mountain region too. Quaint towns and wineries. Virtually a vacation wonderland. Plus you can just walk right over to the pool from this condo. You can see it from my deck! After enjoying your day you can retreat to me very comfy condo to recharge & relax.
