Beautiful large family home with dock on Lake Keowee!

10/10 Excellent
"Perfect space for a group needing 7 individual bedrooms. The kitchen had plenty of space for food prep and the home has 2 refrigerators. There was plenty of seating for all of us in the main living area and additional space on both the basement level and 2nd floor. We enjoyed peaceful mornings on the porch and peaceful evenings by the dock. The dock fit our Tritoon and was covered. The dock is in good shape and the decks look like flooring has recently been replaced. The house is in a quiet neighborhood and the next time we get together with a large group, this is the first place we will try to rent."

"Loved the lake house. The view of the lake from the house is beautiful. The dock was in great shape and we enjoyed kayaking and swimming in the warm water. It was very quiet and peaceful. The home had everything we needed for a two day getaway. We enjoyed eating our meals in the screened in porch with a view of the lake. Communication and getting in and out of the home was easy.

"This place was great! So much room for everyone! We had a party of 11 and everyone had a place to sleep/chill and or just hang out. TV's everywhere so no bickering on what to watch. lol The only disappointment was the lake was WAY down so we couldn't use the docks. Can't be helped so we took our boat out to much deeper waters for floating time. The boat launch was very close and convenient. The host Steve was great to work with. He answered any of my questions and concerns without delay. We would definitely stay here again! Thanks Steve!! :o)"
