About This Home

As of June 2022

Let your summer fun begin, with this fully furnished cottage located on the pristine emerald waters of Lake Keowee. This 2 bedroom 2 bath boasts impressive waterfront views. Start and end your day on the screened porch overlooking the lake.  As you enter you will notice the open plan with ample room for family and friends to gather. The large windows in the dining room allow for a waterside dining experience. There is a guest room and bathroom along with a primary suite. You will enjoy additional floored storage conveniently located in the crawl space for paddleboards or kayaks. The designated place in the development to launch your kayak, canoe, or paddleboard is located in front of the cottage. This makes you the 2nd closest cottage to these stairs going down into Lake Keowee in all of Backwater Landing! Additionally, a wood patio has been approved (to be placed adjacent to the stairs to the screened porch) to add some additional outdoor living space, per the seller.  Management will clarify size and type. Boat tie-up can be obtained for $15 per day on weekends. Backwater is a gated community with amenities such as a pool, lodge, walking trail, library, docks, and workout facility. In addition, your monthly fee also includes water, trash service, boat/trailer storage, and grounds maintenance-allowing you more time to make memories and relax lake living style. A small price for a Million-Dollar view!
Schedule your showing today just in time to enjoy the summer on the lake!
