Wonderful Time on lake Keeowee

The property was immaculate. Very clean, well stocked comfortable on a beautiful quiet cove. The pictures are representative but the property inside and out is even better than pictures. The owners we the most responsive to our questions (there were no issues) but we had a couple questions and they responded almost instantly. Would rate higher than 5 stars if possible. We can’t wait to return.

Perfect Little Spot

We traveled down to Lake Keowee to celebrate Easter and help our Clemson daughter start her move out process. This property was perfect. It is about 20 minutes from Clemson and the perfect little spot to relax and be with family. The property owners were great and had everything you may need to feel at home. The views are breathtaking and my family did not want to leave. If we need a place to stay in the future we will defiantly book again.

Peaceful Retreat with a Beautiful Review

The home view of the beautiful emerald colored lake was breath taking. There was plenty of room to hang out as a family as well as ample space to have alone time. Everything from restaurants to grocery stores are a very short drive. The owners were responsive and helpful from start to finish. We will definitely be staying there again in the future!!

We stayed at this property for a week and had a wonderful experience. The house sits close to the lake and is on a flat lot which allows for beautiful lake views from the den, screened-in porch and deck. The house was very clean and the kitchen was well-stocked with necessary appliances/gadgets. The property has fun toys to enjoy in the water - noodles, googles, kayaks, floats. We rented a pontoon boat for the week and had no issue docking it there. The house is in a cove with many other houses but there wasn’t too much boat traffic, making it easy to enjoy swimming across the cove or just floating. (note, we were there Monday through Saturday. The cove may be busier on the weekend) The homeowners were wonderful about communication and responded quickly to our questions. We would recommend this house to anyone wanting to enjoy Lake Keowee.

Our favorite rental on Lake Keowee!

We have rented many properties on Lake Keowee over the years (visit often as I was born and grew up in the area and come back to visit family)- Sheltered Shores is our favorite! The house is beautiful and comfortable, and the views are incredible! So quiet and peaceful - whether on the deck, the screened-in porch, or at the dock or fire pit by the lake. The property is definitely superior in terms of the quality of the furnishings and amenities in the living areas, kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms. Everything was immaculately clean, beautifully decorated, and comfortable. The property owners were very responsive to our needs and communicated clearly and often. Can’t wait to go back!

The house was everything I imagined from the VRBO listing. Lake front lawn is perfect to get sun and shade, level and has the ramp into the water.
