Restful and amazing while at the lake

We can't say enough about how nice our stay was. Such a great location, quiet and scenic. Beautiful view every time we looked out of the windows - and there were plenty so you can really enjoy it! The house was exceptionally clean and well decorated, very comfortable from the minute we walked in. Would definitely recommend staying here! Plenty of room, nice kitchen with everything needed, lots of resting/sleep places, very open layout.

Excellent property!

This is a beautiful home on Lake Keowee with spectacular views and amenities! The bedrooms and bathrooms are all very large and very clean. A large laundry room with complimentary detergent and fabric softener is a bonus especially traveling with kids. The neighborhood is very quiet and peaceful but it is also nice to see other families out and about enjoying the lake and all it has to offer. We had a great time and would highly recommend this property. The owners Lee and Amanda are fantastic to communicate with and they made every effort to make sure we were comfortable. We can’t wait to return :)

Family Vacation

Our family of 7 had a wonderful time at Lake Keowee! This home was the perfect size for us. It had everything we needed for a week on the lake. The dock is easily accessible from the house, located in a quite and deep cove. We all loved swimming, fishing and canoeing off the dock. We also rented a boat and were allowed to dock the boat at house. We were able to take a short boat ride to the Lighthouse Restaurant. We were also very close to South Cove and Lake Keowee Marina. We had a great time. If we go back to Lake Keowee next summer, we'll definitely book this house again. The owners were so nice and accommodating, and very responsive!! Highly recommend!!

Perfect family retreat

This was our second time staying here and there’s a reason we came back. It’s a great setting for our annual family vacation. Our teenager loved that he could have his own space in the room over the garage. Our 3 year old slept great in one of the other bedrooms and we were very comfortable in the master bedroom. The gently sloped yard is great for the kids playing and fishing. We had everything we needed and it’s clear that the owner cares about providing a great experience. We had to work with the owner on a minor issue and she was very proactive and responsive. You really feel like you’re being taken care of and they care about you having a great stay! We will most likely be back since the kids keep asking to go back.

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.

Lake Keowee Vacation

Lee and Amanda have a beautiful home on the lake. This was our third stay and each time it gets better! The little touches they add each your, not to mention the amazing new deck last year, make it the perfect spot for our family. Can’t say how wonderful this home is and how gracious Lee and Amanda are as hosts. Don’t miss this one folks!

Our Favorite Place on the Lake

We have stayed at this property every summer for three years, and we plan on coming back again. This home is located in a great little cove near South Cove Park. It's easy to put your boat in at South Cove and dock it at the house. The cove is quite, deep and easy to access. The home has a gentle sloping yard which makes it an easy walk from the house to the water. The house is well stocked and very comfortable. It's very clean and in a great neighborhood. It's also close to the movie theaters and the grocery store, but we spend almost all of our time at the house and at the dock. Our boys love swimming and fishing off the dock. This week we caught several brim, a few channel catfish and a bass right off the dock. If we ever have a question for the owners, they are just a text away and very responsive. We'll be back!

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.

Heaven's Window

My wife and I do a lot of traveling. That being said, we have seen our fair share of rental properties. However, this property “Sheltered Shores” comfortably rests at the TOP of my list. The photos in the listing pale in comparison to the true actual on-site visual representation, henceforth the title I chose to represent this amazing property! Whether you are sitting on the dock, around the fire pit, the screened in porch, the deck, or even washing dishes at the kitchen sink…You are immersed in absolute serenity. The cove is so peaceful and inviting that it takes your breath away, giving way to views that make time stand still. The house is spacious, clean and very well furnished, with a great sense of character. It is quite obvious that the owners take great pride in their property and providing a pleasurable experience. The attention to details and the amenities provided speak clearly that the owners, Amanda and Lee, care about you and truly want you to enjoy your stay. The location is perfect as you are located within 10 – 20 minutes of just about anything you could want. We, the four of us total could never fully express what a true pleasure and blessing it was for us to have the privilege to stay at Sheltered Shores! What an Amazing time we all had!

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.

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!

We had such a great time. The house was absolutely beautiful and extremely clean. The house is right on the lake, which is so beautiful and clear. We enjoyed a couple of the local restaurants. The lighthouse was A+ and we also went to the Italian restaurant. We would love to come back again.
