Secluded mountain lake surrounded by 97% shoreline of undeveloped national forest, 7500 acres and 75 miles of shoreline and only 42 homes and a state park with 20 cabins off water.

Lake Jocassee consisting of 7,656 acres was created by damming the tributaries of the Keowee River by Duke Power. Since its waters come directly from cold, clear, protected Appalachian streams, the lake remains cold and clear throughout the year. It is an excellent area for scuba diving, swimming, and paddling, as well as fishing. Lake Keowee, just below the dam, is one of our areas premiere destinations for South Carolina Mountain Real Estate, including two of the areas largest lakefront communities.
