Lake Keowee Lake Side Retreat! Keowee Cottage is nestled in a lovely cove on a privately owned 20+ acre property. Explore native, natural beauty in this forested setting featuring nature trails, lake access, a sandy shoreline, a firepit, & great views. Shared use of the lakeside Pavilion is an added bonus, you will mostly have it to yourselves but on occasion the owners may be present sharing the space with family and friends.
The cottage features open living, dining, & a well-equipped kitchen. Please note there is no boat dock, however, there is trailer parking on-site & several nearby boat ramps. We are dog-friendly and we are often told the dogs had the time of their lives! Guests are fully responsible for their dogs.
Lake Keowee is a beautiful man-made hydroelectric lake. Water levels can fluctuate a foot up or down at any time. The shoreline is considered public, so the occasional boat or two may be pulled up on the sandbar enjoying the lake.
Please note we have a 14-day maximum stay and if a stay is 7 days or longer, the owner will perform an inventory and restock assessment on the 8th day, which will be arranged with the guest.
Location: GPS will get you close but may tell you the property is not on the lake. Bear in mind the property is 20+ acres and the driveway winds for 1/2 mile down to the lake. Our reviews happily attest to the location.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Beautiful and spacious cottage right on the lake. Serene, peaceful and crystal clear water. Hosts thought of everything and provided anything you might need. We enjoyed using the kayaks and relaxing on the deck.
The host was very responsive. We enjoyed the games and extra touches like cocoa and tea. The place was very clean. Easy to find. Beautiful view of the lake!
Our family enjoyed staying a week at this peaceful cabin. Excellent location in a cove on the lake with a great beach to enjoy a day playing in the water.
The hosts were terrific, the cottage was nice appointed, clean, and a short walk to the lake. The pavilion was a great place to meet while cooking dinner and entertaining.
The responsiveness of the host, the ease of check-in and check out processes, the amenities, the view, the coziness, access to the lake and lake toys all made for a very relaxing and memorable few days! We will return, for sure.
Maggie had everything ready for our Thanksgiving weekend and some amazing memories were made! The cottage and pavilion are beautiful & the lake view is stunning (especially at sunrise with the fog rolling off the water)! Hubby enjoyed using the kayak while I curled up on the porch to read. Highly recommend this property!!
Kitchen was fully equipped for cooking . The patio had a wonderful view of the lake in the woods. The living area was very comfortable and cozy for watching movies, etc..
This was the best VRBO property i have ever sfayed at. The owner was very responsive and helpful while not interfering with our stay. The property was beautiful, and the home very clean. We intend on booking again in the future.
Everything was perfect…location, privacy, distance to town. Hosts were great with communication!
Excellent place to stay while in the area! Would definitely stay there again!!!
This property is well cared for, and absolutely beautiful. It was a very relaxing and peaceful stay. Loved being near the water. Hosts were fantastic. Great communication with them. I got all the information about the cabin and the area. Very thoughtful people. I very much suggest you stay here.
