Lakeside living near Hartwell and the Savannah River
Homeland Park sits near the Savannah River and the Georgia state line, giving residents easy access to some of the Upstate’s best freshwater fishing and outdoor recreation. The 56,000-acre Lake Hartwell remains the community’s biggest draw, while Lake Keowee and Lake Russell add more options for boating and fishing within an hour’s drive. “We're uniquely situated because we have access to some of the biggest man-made lakes in the Carolinas,” says Felicia Minyard, real estate agent with Buy Felicia & Co. “Folks here enjoy the lake, the quick hop into Georgia and all the small businesses right here at home.”

Seasonal algae watches on Hartwell and Broadway lakes
Hot weather has let certain algae multiply on Lake Hartwell and Broadway Lake, prompting the South Carolina Department of Environmental Services to issue recreational “water watches.” These algal blooms show up as bright-green scum that can release toxins, irritating skin, upsetting stomachs and posing a real danger to pets that drink the water. The lakes aren’t closed, but visitors are urged to avoid any green patches, rinse off after swimming and keep dogs and small children from swallowing the water until the blooms fade.
Quick commutes via U.S. 29, S.C. 81 and I-85
