About This Home
One of the best views in Backwater Landing, combined with meaningful interior updates, makes this cottage stand out from the others currently on the market. Perched above the lake and perfectly positioned for panoramic Lake Keowee views, this cozy waterfront retreat offers the ideal blend of comfort, convenience, and easy lake living. This home has been thoughtfully updated inside and features a new roof, replaced in 2022, giving you peace of mind and true move-in-ready convenience.
Updated kitchen finishes, wood flooring, garden tub, and inviting living spaces create a warm and comfortable atmosphere designed for relaxing weekends at the lake. The large screened porch is an extension of the living space and is the perfect place to enjoy sunrise coffee, evening lake views, and time with family and friends after a full day on the water. The living room was thoughtfully designed for year-round lake views from every vantage point.
This is the kind of property designed for effortless “lock-and-leave” ownership — low maintenance, stress-free, and ready whenever you are. Whether you're looking for a second home getaway from Greenville, Atlanta, Charlotte, or the perfect Clemson game-day retreat, this cottage offers an easy way to enjoy Lake Keowee without the maintenance of a large lake house. Backwater Landing is a private gated waterfront community featuring a marina, lakefront lodge, pool, fitness center, beach, walking trails, and more.
Developer approved for full-time living if desired. Cottage owners own the cottage and lease the land. No short-term rentals permitted.
NEW expanded boat slips available for lease this year!
