About this property

North Keowee Family Lake House on Private Cove With Dock / 5 MIN FROM JOCASSEE

Get the family and friends together for memories at the lake! This waterfront lake house with private dock has plenty of outdoor living space and is nestled at the end of a quiet cove. You can let the kids swim and explore on paddle board / kayaks without worrying about boat traffic, or go for an adventure yourself! Two (2) kayaks, two (2) paddleboards and an assortment of life jackets are provided at no additional charge. There are lots of great hiking trails in the area (even if the water is too cold to swim) and the leaves are spectacular in autumn.

The location of this home and dock are ON Lake Keowee, but only a 5 minute drive from Lake Jocassee and Devil’s Fork State Park. Enjoy a quiet morning cup of coffee or peaceful sunset from the large screened porch or lower deck overlooking the lake and cove. There is a path with ~40 steps down to the lower deck shown in the photos.

Winter guests enjoy the wood burning stove after a hike on one of the local trails and the outdoor fire pit is a great spot to catch up with family members. During the Spring and Fall the fire pit is home of the storyteller and s'mores!

Hidden Gem

This place was perfect for our long weekend Spring Break with our daughter and her friend. Plenty of space to spread out. The paddle boards and private dock were well used. We did a boat tour of Jocassee out of Devils Fork State Park which was less than 10 minutes away. We enjoyed the quiet, away from our usual city sounds. We would recommend this place for sure!

We had the best time staying at this property. It was everything and more than what we were expecting. Communication was great and oweners were readily available for any question. 5 star rating! Close to Lake Jocassee, but even if you choose to stay put your kids will have a blast in the private cive.We are looking for this home for next years vacation!

The best day of my life!

Dream come true family vacation with my two girls and 8 grandchildren. Lost track of the hugs and “grandma, this is the best day of my life”. House has perfect layout and well equipped with everything you need. Gorgeous setting, quiet cove for swimming, paddle boarding. Eight year old grandson caught 2 1/2 lb catfish from the dock! Going to be talking about this vacation for years to come.

Wonderful place for family visits

We came into town for an aunts celebration of life memorial. Even though this property was a littler further away, I loved the views and booked it anyway. This was fantastic for a small family gathering after the service. We were able to have some of the cousins come for a visit and had plenty of space. We didn't have near as many stay at the house as we had planned, but had plenty of space. The host was fantastic to communicate with. Ohhhh and the waterfalls that was in the neighborhood that we were able to do a short hike to. Absolutely stunning.

Quiet Southern retreat

Property is nestled into beautiful temperate forest overlooking a quiet cove. The house is well maintained and owners extremely helpful. Lots of beds for a big family. Screened back porch is where we stayed at all waking hours and some napping hours too. The path to the lake is graded just right and is a nice short walk to the dock. The stairs, although positioned perfectly, may be hard for older knees. A short wall half way down can be used as a bench because the tranquility of the water is a must to experience. Nice job owners!!

Quiet spot but listing updates needed

If you plan on bringing a boat, I would recommend looking for a different property. After booking the house and near check in, we were given instructions not to park by the house with a boat and the driveway is too steep to pull up or turn around with a boat. This created a pretty big hassle for parking and using the boat, unloading things from the truck, and then going to retrieve the boat which had to be parked a good distance away from the house. We also had issues with the AC turning back up to 75 each night after turning it to 72 to sleep. We woke up hot a few times and the AC had reset to its scheduled temp. On the plus side, it's a quiet location and the house has ample room to spread out and enjoy Lake Keowee.

We had a great time at this lake house! The setting is amazing - quiet cove off the main lake. We spent hours on the screened porch, which is definitely a highlight of the property. The area is remote, but we had planned for that and had everything we needed - the extra fridge in the tv room was a super help! The owners were very accommodating and helpful - couldn’t have asked for more!

About the host

Hosted by Pat Tramonte

Host profile image
We are two brothers with 6 children each who grew up coming to Lake Keowee as children. The memories we have of family time at the lake are what we want to share with our children and what we are happy to share with you, your family, and friends.

Why they chose this property

We love this property because of its location at the end of the cove, all of the outdoor living space, and the proximity to Lake Jocassee as well as being on Lake Keowee.

What makes this property unique

The location of this home is one of the most unique aspects. While the home is on Lake Keowee with a water view and dock, it is just 5 minutes from Lake Jocassee which promises beautiful mountain views, Scuba Diving (Top 10 in the USA), waterfall boat tours, and guided fishing trips.
