Lake Keowee 2025

This home was awesome! Our family rents a home once a summer and it's always the highlight of our summer. This was probably our favorite home yet at Lake Keowee. Excellent quality, beautiful, great location on a quiet cove. We couldn't have asked for more during our stay here!

This was our first visit to Lake Keowee, and we enjoyed every moment. The home is lovely and very unique. The kitchen is extremely well-equipped with cutting edge appliances, as well as spacious cooking and dining areas. The beautiful enclosed porch provides incredible lake views, and brings the outdoors in. The bedrooms and bathrooms were all very comfortable and well-designed.

Beautiful Property!

Our family celebrated 4th of July at this beautiful property. House was better than described. Loved the simplicity of the decor. The sunroom with the tv and fireplace was the hangout spot. The place is on a cove that is perfect for floating with beverages and watching fireworks in the distance. Will definitely be back.

Exceptional Place!

Our stay in Seneca was amazing! Tina’s home was stunning and had quite possibly everything you could think of that you’d need. My husband and I, along with two other couples were beyond comfortable. This VRBO stay has been one of my favorites I’ve ever booked! The home is just beautiful!

A Perfect Fall Getaway

The house is beautiful and is also really cozy and comfortable. The owner clearly put a lot of thought into the design and decor of each room, anticipating all needs. We enjoyed using the kayaks and the firepit as well! The off-site suggestions for food and activities were also very helpful. We look forward to staying here again in the future.

Perfect weekend at the lake

My wife and I spent the weekend here with some friends and had such a fun and relaxing trip! Plenty of space for all of us and slept very well. We also enjoyed making several dinners in the kitchen and on the grill. During the day, it was great spending time in the water/on the dock, and the fire pit was nice for the evenings. Would highly recommend and look forward to staying here again!

Perfect Labor Day Weekend

We had a wonderful weekend enjoying this beautiful home on the lake. The kitchen is amazingly stocked with anything and everything you might need. Our group enjoyed the paddle board and kayak and my 10 year old enjoyed fishing off the dock. A 10 out of 10 weekend! Highly recommend this rental.

Beautiful, comfortable, very clean home. Communicative property manager. Arrival and departure processes are seamless. Easy walk (not wicked steep or long) to a huge dock. Kitchen is well-appointed, and the grill works well and isn’t all mucky. Fantastic process and experience. Already looking at dates to rebook. Thank you!

Hard to say goodbye to this amazing house!!

House was perfect for our group to celebrate graduation! Spent time on the dock enjoying the peaceful lake - absolutely loved sitting in the screened in room - feeling like we were in a tree house. Tina was a great host - answering my various questions within minutes of me asking - allowing us to use fishing rods, kayaks and all the extras in the home. We have been coming to Clemson for four years and everyone in our group declared this house our favorite! Thank you for building a home made for a large group.

Fantastic Property!!

This is an amazing property. Very new and nice. This property has all the amenities and was not missing a thing. There are so many extra touches such as numerous washers and dryers, numerous ice machines, numerous refrigerators, chef's kitchen, etc. We were extremely happy with our stay. We brought a boat and the dock was perfect! There is a public boat launch nearby. This property is very spacious and has numerous living rooms. The property manager was very nice and informative. This property is close to Clemson, which is why we were in town. We will definitely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone looking in the area.

Winter weekends at Lake Keowee!

This new home has a very spacious kitchen with a walk-in pantry, two dishwashers and refrigerators making mealtime effortless. Ample gathering spaces, including the all-weather deck with a fireplace were perfect for watching football and unwinding. I recommend the owner add black makeup washcloths to the towel selections available to guests. We enjoyed playing various board and card games - even had a family corn hole competition. While it was too cold for kayaks and paddleboarding, we're excited to use them next time. The huge outdoor firepit with water views added to the cozy atmosphere. We eagerly anticipate returning this summer!

Not sure there is better on the lake

We have been going to Keowee for over 2 decades. We have stayed in many homes, townhomes, etc. this is by far the best we have stayed in. Few highlights: 1. Process is easy, and all communication was clear and prompt. 2. Arguably the most well equipped and thought-out rental we’ve ever stayed (including the beach etc…). Multiple of everything, and made the stay perfect. 3. The cove and dock is perfect. Allowed us to swim, dock our boat covered, and maybe saw 2 boats move around us the entire week stay. 4. Beds and furnishings were comfortable (this can be a miss in MANY rentals). 5. I want to buy a lot next to the house (both have docks, but no homes)! Seems the owners take a ton of pride and care in wanting the stay to be perfect, which it was. If you are contemplating this or another house, DON’T! Book it now!

A home away from home (but better)

We’re so happy to have found this place. It’s brand new, but everything has been done so tastefully that it already feels warm and inviting. The beds are comfortable, the layout is perfect for groups to interact without feeling like you’re crowding each other, and there is a fantastic flow from through the house to the outdoors. All the windows and transitional spaces make you feel like you’re in the trees. I wish the kitchen were my all-the-time kitchen. It has everything you need to make a full meal for any size group, plus the space for everyone to hang out while you’re cooking so you don’t feel isolated or overcrowded. The double dishwashers are a genius inclusion. You can tell they put a lot of thought into the outside, as well. The landscaping still has some growing to do (as in any new house) but once it does, it’s going to feel even more lush. We especially enjoyed floating off the dock and hanging around the fire pit. Check-in was easy, the hosts were super communicative without being overbearing. The town of Seneca is small but has what you need to supplement your lake time. We can’t wait to stay here again.
