COMMUNITY OF THE WEEK
The Reserve at Lake Keowee, SC: Lakefront living and Nicklaus golf.
> The Reserve at Lake Keowee, SC, our Community of the Week, is a private, 3,900-acre golf and recreational community set on the shores of Lake Keowee in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Lake Keowee’s crystal clear water is considered one of the purest South Carolina lakes.
The lake’s 18,500 acres of Blue Ridge Mountain-fed water and 300 miles of shoreline provide The Reserve at Lake Keowee with an ideal place for boating, fishing, water-skiing, swimming, camping and picnicking. There are also miles of hiking and biking trails, which provide residents with endless pathways to the water’s edge, preserves, parks, green spaces and club areas.
The community’s par-72, 18-hole golf course was designed by Jack Nicklaus and opened in 2002. Nicklaus utilized the topography of the land and allowed the course to follow the natural contours of the surrounding Blue Ridge Mountains, and along with the lake, is a big draw for visitors and residents alike. New homesites at The Reserve at Lake Keowee from the $100,000s, and one-of-a-kind homes available from the $420,000s. Send me more information about The Reserve at Lake Keowee!
