About This Home

ASK ABOUT THE THIRTY NEW BOATSLIPS! Looking for a DIRECT LAKEFRONT Lake Keowee Cottage with no lake view obstructions? This cottage is move-in-ready, has FULL-TIME capacity, comes with the furniture, golf cart, new HVAC in 2023, new roof in 2021, exterior repainted in 2021, a termite bond, hardwood floors, EZE Breeze porch windows for all season's porch and more! If you are looking for a low maintenance retreat, full time residence or a lakefront getaway, Cottage 75 is a must see! The cottage is only one cottage away from the lakefront walking path that goes around the neighborhood peninsula. This established community offers many amenities. They include a fabulous lakefront lodge and swimming pool, marina, beach, renovated fitness center, walking trails and more. There is no HOA. Cottage owners own their cottages and lease the land. This is how Backwater Landing has the most luxurious and affordable Lake Keowee living on Lake Keowee. There is a $662 monthly regime for 2025 that includes land lease, landscaping maintenance, private gated community, gates up keeping, pool, clubhouse, walking trails, fitness center, lighting and more. There is no HOA, the monthly fees vary for each buyer based on their specific usage. Monthly fees vary based on services such as boat slip rental, storage unit usage, and whether the owner is a full-time or part-time resident. For a full fee breakdown and service list, please contact your real estate agent about the fees structure. This is a private gated community. The gate is monitored with no public access. Entry requires agent representation. No rentals allowed less than a 12-month term. A modified tax structure adds to the savings of this remarkable Lake Keowee cottage. Please ask about the land lease, boat slip rentals, and further details as the developer anticipates the thirty new boat slips (now onsite) to be rentable soon, once work is completed to prepare them for use. This cottage is on a single septic and the buyer could live there full-time. Schedule your private tour today.
