Keowee Retreat:
This house was built in 2002 for the builder himself. It is obvious from the amenities and extras that this is not a typical rental house. Step through the French doors onto the deck overlooking 2 large koi ponds and listen to the serenity of rushing water from multiple waterfalls. But don't stop there! Rent a boat and get out on the water for fun skiing, tubing, or just checking out the local scenery!! (Note: Life jackets and fishing poles are not provided... please bring your own.) Also included for indoor fun are a regulation pool table, poker/dining table, Foosball, ping pong , dart board, and air hockey. Whatever 'floats your boat' you'll find here at the 'Keowee Retreat'.
Amenities:
We have tried to anticipate your needs by stocking the house with everything we can think of to provide you with a relaxing vacation experience. In addition to all standard appliances in the kitchen, we have provided an automatic coffee maker, coffee filters, bagel-size toaster, waffle maker, blender, hand mixer, spices, dish washing liquid, dishwasher tablets, paper towels, garbage bags and a fire extinguisher.

There are a number of specialty shops on Ram Cat Alley, located in historic downtown Seneca...a great place to find that special something. Seneca has an 8-plex cinema - and the Oconee Community Theater puts on numerous excellent productions each year.
