Amazing lake house

We had the best vacation at this lake house. The house was perfect for our group. We loved the huge kitchen island open to the living area, all the sleeping spaces, the dock, but most importantly the view from the decks. My favorite thing was to sit on the screened in porch with my coffee and just look at the beautiful lake. We can't wait to go back!

Great place to stay for a family vacation or reunion

We had a great time on the lake swimming, canoeing and kayaking. We rented a boat for tubing. The house was well equipped with all we needed. The outdoor shower was helpful as we had a large family staying in the basement & the one bathroom was not adequate for all of them. An added plus was the community swimming pool, just across the street. We all had a great time and plan to come again.

Great Spot on Lake Keowee

What a terrific week we had enjoying the Bain’s lake house. From the great views and the well-appointed home, to the swimming pool just across the street, we can find nothing negative to say. We hope we can return with our family again soon!

Perfect getaway for multigenerations

The property was gorgeous and well stocked with everything we needed as we celebrated our parents 50th anniversary and Easter with all of the kids and grandkids. Plenty of space to spread out within the house. Everyone enjoyed fishing from the dock. Views were gorgeous of Lake Keowee.

Great house for holiday family getaway

This house was perfect! It was very large and had a great layout to support 3 generations of family. The view of the lake every morning at sunrise was breathtaking, as well as the sunset from the fire pit. I have to admit, based on the pictures we were thinking this would be just a typical lake house. However we were pleasantly surprised to see a very bright and open feeling house. We loved it and hope to come back.

Excellent Location and Home

We just got home from our week vacation here. We had a wonderful time and made excellent memories that we will cherish! Everyone from all age groups had plenty of things to do to keep busy and no one was bored. The house is located at the northern tip of the lake where all the sight seeing is. We were tucked away enough to feel like we had our own private portion of the lake but not far away from all the action! The house had plenty of room for everyone and everyone felt like they had enough space also all could gather together on the main floor without feeling cramped. We are considering make this our family vacation spot as long as it’s available.

Amazing Trip!

This house and the owners were nothing short of amazing! The house was clean and beautiful. The massive windows overlooked the lake and we sat out on the screened porch for hours at a time. The owners' communication with us was timely and clear. If you are looking for a place for a group of 10-20 it would be hard to imagine finding any place nicer than this one.

About the host

Hosted by Nicholas Bain

Host profile image
Our family has enjoyed our lake house for the past 21 years. As our family has grown, (now with grandchildren) we continue to use our lake house for family vacations and reunions. We love boating, fishing and water sports. We live near Atlanta and find the 2 hour drive makes for an easy weekend get-a-way.

Why they chose this property

We did not buy this as a vacation rental, but as a second home, a get-a-way and vacation home for our family and friends. We had known Lake Keowee as a beautiful lake. It has sparkling clean water with peaceful surroundings of the nearby mountains. We are now making it available for a limited number of weeks as a rental vacation home.

What makes this property unique

Our lake house is unique situated at the mouth of a peaceful deep water cove with great access to the main body of Lake Keowee. We are surrounded by several Cliffs Communities with its upscale homes and amenities. Our home can offer either a quiet restful get-a-way, or an active lakefront vacation.
