Warmer Winters,
Cooler Summers

Summers are naturally cooler on Lake Keowee, aided by the mountain breezes and tall shade trees. Short, mild winters set the tone for the holidays as they open up panoramic views across Lake Keowee and the surrounding Blue Ridge Mountains. Beautiful colors and fragrances draw you to the outdoors each spring and fall—seasons full of year-round outdoor activities like golf, boating, and hikes to hundreds of nearby waterfalls with drops up to 400ft . It’s easy to stay current each season. Click here to sign up for our newsletter magazine—Reflections.

Located in the heart of The Village, our 200-Slip Marina provides everything you need for a day on Lake Keowee—from watercraft and kayak rentals to supplies and fuel. Perfect for a morning run or moonlit walk, the wide, lighted boardwalk trail winds for a half mile along the Lake Keowee waterfont, connecting the Village and Amphitheater to the Pool Pavilion, playground, cabana grille and lakefront property like the Homes at Village Point.

CommunityDeveloper Story

Family-owned since 1978, Greenwood Communities and Resorts has proudly created some of the most acclaimed resorts and private communities in the Southeast. The hallmark of a Greenwood property is that each one respects the land and enriches lives, blending together sustainable natural environments and fun, family amenities. Nowhere is this philosophy more evident than at The Reserve at Lake Keowee.

In this beautiful setting that begs you to play outdoors, staying healthy and fit is a top priority for Reserve members. At our facility you’ll find four lighted Har-Tru clay tennis courts and all the exercise equipment you need to help you get more out of life.

Reserve members enjoy group clinics and classes, one-on-one instruction, indoor and outdoor fitness activities, group hikes, lakeside water aerobics and more.

CommunityJack Nicklaus Signature Golf

Jack Nicklaus placed his signature on The Reserve with a 7,112-yard masterpiece along the emerald waters of Lake Keowee with soaring views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. As one of the most popular private golf courses in South Carolina, warmer winters and cooler summers are par for the course here.

At the center of every great community is a gathering place. Like hometowns of another generation, our lakeside Village brings together the entire community. From its front-row setting on the water, it is anchored by the Great Lawn, an elegant, rolling expanse of green that opens its wide arms to the simple joys of picnics, kite flying, and gathering under the stars. But despite its small-town look and feel, the Village is home to all The Reserve amenities—it is where all the action begins.
