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.

The backyard has a level playing area with room for volleyball, three-legged races and other activities for the children. Large hammock for watching the late night stars. Below the level playing area, the backyard gently slopes down to the lake. The driveway has ample space for ten cars. Downstairs has a children’s playroom filled with toys and a separate family room so the adults can enjoy the peaceful upstairs living room. There is a separate card room for the adults. Wireless internet access is available, so bring your lap top to stay connected.

About the host

Hosted by Michael Maloney

Host profile image
Welcome! The extended Maloney Family thanks you for considering this home for your next vacation. The six of us are spread out up and down the East Coast and this is the perfect location for our annual Family Reunion.

Why they chose this property

Our mother built this house as her seasonal residence in 2004. It is on the SW side of the lake, very close to town and Clemson University. This home is not decorated like your average lake house. Every room has it's own fine touches. It is perfect for multifamily groups, since the kids have plenty of beds in their rooms. It has been a seasonal rental since the summer of 2007.

What makes this property unique

Welcome to the largest and most luxurious rental on Lake Keowee. This house has everything you need for the perfect stay. Make sure you check out our home video and slideshow that has an additional 100 pictures of the home.
