The home is located on SW shore of Lake Keowee in South Carolina off Highway 188 on Maughan Trail, approximately six miles from the town of Seneca and only 16 miles from Clemson University.
This exquisite 6,000 square-foot lakefront home was built and decorated by the family matriarch with the goal of having a vacation home large enough for her six children and fourteen grandchildren to enjoy together. The main house has 8 bedrooms and 5 ½ baths, with the owner's suite (Master) on the main. ***The apartment over the garage that is NO LONGER available.*** All of the bedrooms are very spacious and beautifully decorated.
The gourmet kitchen was built for a CHEF - features include a nine-foot island with a prep-sink, double oven, a five-burner gas cook top, and a pasta faucet. The dining room has 2 large circular tables. Each table has a lazy Susan and can seat 8 to 10, plus there is counter seating for four. Also, there is a small wet bar with an ice machine close by! The spacious deck has two picnic tables for enjoying lunch outdoors in wet bathing suits. The picnic tables can seat 12 to 16 kids/adults, and are less than 10 feet from the kitchen.
A fixed, covered wooden dock with attached gazebo overlooking the lake and three undeveloped islands, offering peaceful serenity. In addition to a swing, the dock has a water hose and power is available. The 18,000 acres of water and a 300-mile shoreline make Lake Keowee a popular place for boating, fishing, water-skiing, swimming, camping and picnicing. There is a public boat ramp a few minutes away, so you are welcome to bring your boat and leave it at our dock. The house also has two kayaks to explore the pristine lake with all of its natural beauty.

Did not want to leave the property - activities for all age groups. We rented a boat, went white water rafting came back to the house for dinner. The entire family loved the beach and kayaking. Owners were extremely helpful.
We have been going to a major college football game for 37 years. 16 of us this year. Property was exactly as advertised and we were all super comfortable. We have done the VRBO in the past with listings that indicated they could sleep that many, unfortunately upon arrival that was not the case. I would strongly recommend this house to anyone going to this area. The host was amazing.
Our stay at the Maloney Lake House was wonderful. The house was great for our group with plenty of space to spread out, a remarkable view and everything you need in the kitchen and throughout. We highly recommend a stay!
We had our family reunion here - 9 adults and 11 grandchildren. The house had plenty of beautifully furnished bedrooms and bathrooms to accommodate us all, as well as a large dining area and a fully equipped kitchen. Plus, there are lots of ‘hang out’ spaces both inside and on the porch for smaller groups of people to gather and chat or play games. Thank you for providing a beautiful and comfortable place for us to enjoy our family reunion.
This place provides something for every age, and our entire group of 19 couldn’t have been happier. Great house, great location & great owner. Responsiveness was excellent and we lacked for nothing. Hands down this was one of the best places we’ve stayed for our family reunions.
We shared the house with another family and had a blast. There is plenty of space for lots of people and the location on the lake is absolutely perfect! The kids had plenty to do between swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding and playing in the huge yard.
We had an amazing week away with several families !
The location and layout of the house are ideal for a large group!
The house is well stocked and has everything you need!
The lake is so beautiful and clean - and quiet - even during 4th of July week.
We hope to return soon!
This property is so spacious and has an amazing setting! The kitchen is very well-stocked. We had a total of 13 in our party and had plenty of space. We will be coming back again!
The property and owners were perfect. They had things there and available that I hadn't even thought we would need, but used. As clean a property as I have ever seen.....A super experience......
The house is designed really well to comfortably fit a large group of people - bedrooms, eating areas and outside areas were perfect all designed to fit comfortably. Owner was super responsive and organized. House is beautiful yet comfortable. Will definitely rent again. Has everything you would want in a lake house.
We were at the Maloney Lake House for a celebration. Michael is prompt and sets a high standard for all of us. The house is in a beautiful location, easy access to the water. Rooms and common spaces are well appointed.
Thank you Michael for offering us such a wonderful experience
The property was beautiful with an amazing view of the lake ,with easy access to the lake and dock. The house was equipped with everything you needed. The kids of all ages enjoyed the Kayaks and Paddle boards. The only downside we had was a cold and rainy 3 days for June. Unexpected, but made the most out of it. Would definitely recommend this property.

Wonderful! Couldn't have been better!
All of our family, of 24, fit in the house! It was spacious and there was plenty of light. The kitchen was amazing-everything you'd ever need-large pots, plenty of dishes and silverware. Plenty of eating areas. The bedrooms and baths were great, with plenty of hot water. We were there in the winter but 2 days were "warm" enough to play on the beach and outside. Great neighborhood to walk. Wonderful home and we are thankful for our time together under one roof!

Family Reunion
Beautiful and roomy home. Beautiful view of the lake. And 32 family members from GA, NC and PA. We all had a wonderful time. Loved the kitchen and the porch. The yard was great for corn hole, playing tag and hiding Easter eggs. Though the water was cold, the little ones and the teenagers didn't mind getting wet. Michael was great to work with also. We definitely will come back for future reunions.
We had a great stay at the Maloney Lake House. The house is perfect for a large gathering. The location and setting are lovely, beautiful and peaceful. We were in town for my sons graduation from Clemson University. It’s a little farther from Clemson University about 24 minutes but the few times we had to make the drive it is worth the ride. The property has more than enough bedrooms and bathrooms to accommodate everyone. The kitchen and decks are just amazing and there is plenty to do right on the property that you really never have to leave.
There’s no way to state how amazing this house and property are! Our large family after-Christmas get together was the best we’ve ever had. I give the credit to the Maloney family for the way they have created a place that provides not only a more-than-comfortable home, but also a variety of activities for all ages to do. Kayaking, volleyball, football, playing on the beach, hanging out on the huge outside decks, card games, board games, scavenger hunt and hide-and-seek were all the activities our family participated in. From ages 4 to 69 - everyone had a blast making great family memories.
We loved all the “little” touches that make a stay better and easier. We enjoyed having the ice machine, two choices of coffee appliances, a second refrigerator, and a large pantry area. The kitchen has plenty of everything you can want for your cooking needs. Comfortable beds, large bathrooms and a “secret” hideaway for the little ones to play in added to the appeal of this house. The first morning there, we got to witness the most beautiful sunrise over the east part of the lake and it was a peaceful reminder that our blessings are many.
Thank you Maloney family for sharing the blessing of your lake home with us!!
This property was perfect for our large family (14 adults) celebration. It has an ideal layout for multi-generational gatherings. Everyone could gather in the large common areas, but also had privacy in their own bedroom and bath. The back deck provided not only a beautiful view of the lake & the green activity area, but also gave more gathering places outside. The protected inlet beach entry to the lake was ideal for lake access for non-swimmers in the group, launch area for kayaks/SUPS (included with the property) and overall raft floating/swimming. The location of the covered boat dock provided our access to the lake to tube/ski etc. without interfering with the others that wanted to use the beach. Overall, this property is one we will definitely revisit when another large family gathering is planned.
Our family of 7 adults and 5 small children under the age of 4 had a wonderful time! The beach area on the lake was perfect for all my little guys!!!!! We will be back! Thank you Maloney Family for sharing you beautiful home with us!
