20 Minutes to Clemson - Remodeled 4 BR/3 BA Waterfront

Peaceful setting on a beautiful cove with clear emerald green deep water. From our dock you can swim, fish or just sit and take in the view. Your boat and jet-ski can rest comfortably tied to the dock and attached floating jet-ski dock. The fishing is top notch, from the shallow water pan fish and bass, to the deep water larger catches. The 143-foot-wide beach area provides a perfect place to launch our 2 kayaks or the canoe provided for your enjoyment. Bring your life preservers, water toys and floats. Moms can watch the kids from the gently sloping grassy shoreline or from the dock. For those who enjoy waterfront dining, there is small deck at the water’s edge with a table, chairs and umbrella for just that! There is also a primitive fire pit for those who love to roast hot dogs or marshmallows, or just have a fun evening with family and friends by a warm fire. You'll especially enjoy this on a cool fall, star-filled night.

HOW MANY DOES IT SLEEP?
Main Living Level:
Master Bedroom: King bed (nice view to the lake & lots of closet space)
Guest Bedroom #1: Queen bed
Guest Bedroom #2: Twin single beds
Great Room: Sleeper sofa (Queen size)
Lower Living Level:
Guest Bedroom #3: Queen bed
Total: 10
All bedrooms have good closet space and luggage racks.

Bathrooms
Main Level: Two bathrooms. The master bath has a granite counter top and large walk-in shower. The view of the lake is also an enjoyable bonus. The hall bath serves the two hall bedrooms and is convenient to the rest of the main living level. It has been renovated, including a solid surface counter top and tub/shower.
Lower Level: One Bath. New, upscale bath with solid surface counter top and custom walk-in tile shower.

The Kitchen
Serious cooks will love the kitchen. All new appliances! High-end, smooth top range with two ovens; an additional wall oven and matching microwave; large refrigerator in the kitchen and separate ice maker in utility room to insure plenty of ice for a large group on those hot summer days. You can seat up to 6 at the granite counter in the kitchen. It’s also a perfect place to prepare meals while you watch TV and converse with the family in the great room. Stand at the kitchen sink and wash dishes while you view the lake. You can also use the under counter dishwasher. Bring your whole coffee beans and use our grinder to make a superior cup of coffee in the 12-cup drip coffee maker. There is also a top-of-the-line Cuisinart SS-700 coffee maker that will use your K-cups (not the 2.0 K-cups). Large, 4-slice toaster will thaw and toast even your bagels. No old, beat up pots and pans in this kitchen; most of them are new and of high quality. The dishes and silverware are new, as well.

Dining Room
In addition to seating for 6 at the bar in the kitchen, the large trestle dining room table will seat 10 to 12. A nice bonus is the open view through the great room to the deck and lake.

Great Room
The view of the waterfront from the large picture windows is captivating. You’ll love the remote-controlled gas logs in the brick fireplace on those cool fall nights. The 50” HD flat screen TV with sound bar and blue-ray player is sure to please even the most ardent of movie or sports fans. Of course, there is cable service (includes the extra sports package) and WiFi internet. Don’t forget that the cable service includes music channels which sound great when played through the sound bar, with attached sub-woofer. You can also connect your smart phone or iPod wireless.

Game Room (Lower Level)
Completely new renovation. The game room hosts a pool table and other game table. The TV and sound components duplicate those on the main living level. There is also a brick fireplace with gas logs. Puzzles, board games and playing cards are at your disposal for the game table. There is even a view to the lake. This area is a hit with kids and adults alike.

The Deck
There is no better place to enjoy a view of the water front than from the back deck, off the great room. That morning cup of hot coffee just tastes better from the high perch, looking down on the calm, clear emerald green lake waters. You’ll enjoy the tall, mature trees providing plenty of shade on those hot summer days. It’s common, when the water is glassy, to be able to see large bass swimming in the shallow water below. The deck is furnished with a new table, large umbrella, and chairs for 6. There are plenty of additional deck chairs available if needed. The gas grill is relatively new and is connected to the large gas tank that also serves the two fireplaces. That means you won’t run out of gas in the middle of your family cookout! Don’t be surprised to find that the deck is a constant favorite gathering place for family and friends during your stay.

Other Notes
The upstairs bedrooms are carpeted and the downstairs bedroom has a tile floor.
New hickory hardwood floors throughout the great room, dining room, kitchen and hallway.
3 Charging stations for your iPhones, iPads etc. (kitchen, master bedroom, hall bedroom)
Utility room: Washer and dryer, utility sink, ice maker
Carport for one car, but over-sized, just off the utility room and kitchen
Plenty of room for several vehicles on the horseshoe drive
Parking space for your boat trailer
Restaurants and shopping only a few minutes away
Clemson Fans? Only 15 to 20 minutes to the Tiger games.

Wonderful Clemson Graduation location!

The house and property are perfect for a large family. There are lots of places to sit outside, either on the back deck or down by the lake, with umbrellas for those desiring shade. We cooked a lot of meals and found everything we needed to prep and serve. The house was clean and spacious.

Amazing Stay in Emerald Cove

This was our third trip to Lake Keowee, and our time at Emerald Cove is our favorite by far. The home is tucked away in a beautiful, shaded lot on a quite cove that is perfect for soaking, floating and swimming. Our family of 7 so enjoyed the dock and space by the water, often there chatting, reading and napping in the grass. The dock is also super friendly for boat users, we rented a pontoon from High Falls Boat Rentals (highly recommend) and spent days exploring the lake. The house is very well-appointed and comfortable with more than enough space for everyone. The kitchen is well-stocked with high-quality appliances and cookware that easily satisfied the professional chef of the family. We used the new, large Weber grill just about every night. Communication with the Elmores was perfect throughout the booking process and leading up to our vacation, very professional. While we're the type of family that prefers to try a different VRBO for every vacation, we're first going to check if Emerald Cove is available for our next visit to Lake Keowee. A big thank you to the Elmores for their hospitality!

This property was perfect for our family's summer vacation! The home was clean, well maintained and had everything we needed. The pier was great to swim off of and for docking our boat. We also brought a trailer with our motorcycles and the U-shaped driveway provided ample room for our two SUVs trailers and motorcycles. The owners were quick to respond any questions we had. As a family of four it was perfect for our needs. Mom and dad had a full bath attached to the master bedroom and our two teenage children each had a large bed and their own full baths as well. We loved the home and area so much that we plan to stay there again during different seasons of the year to continue to explore the surrounding area.
