Cozy, well-appointed villa in a quiet location in Keowee Key close to the community pool and central to the access gates for ease in traveling within the Keowee Lake region. Donna, the host, was very welcoming and went out of her way to accommodate us during our stay.

Exactly! Lots of things to do any time of the year in this area! Glad you had a great visit!
The condo was very cozy and homey and the host was very responsive…just watch your head on the steps if you’re tall and choose to sleep in the loft area.
We had such a great time! We hiked, used the pools, played bocce, fished, rented a boat for a day, and enjoyed the Bistro. It was a wonderful vacation. There’s such a variety of activities in a peaceful, relaxing environment.

Thanks so much for the nice review. I really do want guests to have the very best experience when they visit. Whatever they choose to do, I like to inform them of things available to do and am glad to help if I can. Hope to host you again soon!
We had an excellent stay at the Keowee Key Condo. It’s a beautiful place in a perfect setting. Plenty of amenities and plenty to do in the neighborhood and area. Donna was a great host and extremely helpful. The coffee bar is an added bonus. I highly reccomend if staying in the area.
Donna's Keowee condo is lovely. A very comfortable home away from home with everything needed to have a relaxing vacation.After spending a day out seeing the sights, it sure was nice to return to such a welcoming place. We can't wait to return!

Thanks! Glad to be your host! And putting the Aloe in fridge was a good idea! It probably did feel better cool! I hope any sunburns weren’t terribly bad.
We had an amazing time relaxing in the pool and enjoyed fishing and swimming at the lake. We will be coming back. It was home away from home. Donna was a fabulous host.

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.
What makes this property unique
Ive been told its cute, cozy, comfy & has personality! Its stocked with all your needs. Centrally located among numerous areas of enchantment and fun things to do, not to mention the community amenities you have access to use as renters, as well.
