The home was excellent and the view from the dock was incredible with the mountains and the lake. It was very nice and convenient to rent the pontoon boat as well. Keely was a pleasure to deal with and I will definitely be back in the future.

Keely was pleasant to work with and very accommodating for our last minute rental. The view of the lake and mountains was very peaceful, and we loved our evening fires by the water! It was nice that this property offered 3 king size beds, a rarity in rental properties. There was even a Christmas tree for us to enjoy until we could reach our final destination! We would definitely work with Keely again in the future!

We had a great time and the house and location was very good. Took advantage of the proximity to the lake and rented the pontoon boat which was an incredible day. Keely was very responsive and easy to work with. The whole process was seamless.

Lake Life

This is the first time we stayed in this property, it was very clean and in a great location next to the marina. I’ve stayed in many rentals, this one I really enjoyed how they had numerous large trash cans for our group of our size. The other nice feature was the areas for the JetSki rentals, and being able to just drive them up onto the dock.

Great Lake House

We stayed at this beautiful lake house the week we moved in our Clemson Tiger for her fall semester. This home is amazing and it was impeccably clean. Very spacious with a ton of beds. There is a marina next door and we rented a pontoon boat for the week and it was so wonderful to walk down to the dock and go out on the boat anytime we wanted. We will definitely go back.

Beautiful Relaxing Weekend away at Keowee

Our extended family of 8 thoroughly enjoyed our stay at "DockTales" on Keowee. Check-in and communication with the hosts was top knotch. We loved the personal touches like K-pods and a full s'mores kit freshly stocked and ready to go. They made their kayaks available to us and the house sits in the absolute perfect location for exploring Lake Keowee. We were able to paddle or swim to a mini island sand bar, the Sunset Marina right next door was super friendly and we had a great day on the pontoon boat. If you are bringing your own boat, the sunset marina boat put in is a 2 minute walk from the house, so no need to pay to park your boat trailer at the marina. Everything worked out great. The family loved the comfy couches everywhere and clean, updated bathrooms, living rooms, rec room with arcade games, etc. I cannot forget to mention the perfect view of the sunrise over the lake and marina and the sunset in the distance with the lake in the foreground are clearly visible from anywhere on the property. Hopefully, we will be back!
