Perfect Secluded Cove! Amazing Dock! New Kitchen!New family suite & bath!Do it!

East Cove Paradise is the premier Lake Keowee family vacation pad on a quiet, deep-water cove. Enjoy the secluded quietness of nature and the songs of birds under the canopy of trees, a peace that exists no place else.

A gently sloping, natural looking cement path and a single flight of safe steps to the dock was completed in the Spring of 2016. Access from the lower level of the house to the lower sun deck is now available without a single step. As part of septic system renovation, a spectacular 3000 square foot terrace was built complete with zoysia grass lawn and fire pit! The rest of the property is wooded and natural.

This Non-Smoking home boasts a 22 foot ceiling in the great room that features a new, large screen HD TV and a 34-foot and opens to a perfect screened in deck room with a 12' door that doubles the main level living space. The spacious kitchen was renovated in 2023 and is equipped with everything you need to cook, and 14 can be seated around the table and dining bar. The great room in the main level has a gas burning fireplace to keep you cozy and beautiful view of our secluded cove.

Our monster spring 2022 renovation replaced and expanded the patio and deck and added an amazing screened room on the deck! Opening the 12' door doubles the living space on the main level and opens up the beauty of East Cove to living space, you'll love it!

The 2023 off season project was a complete renovation of the main level with sparkling new kitchen and new flooring. The kitchen is perfect in every way with a central island that sits 6 and a wine fridge.

Another home run renovation for 2024 turned the upper level loft into a private family suite with a perfect new expanded bath featuring a walk in shower and double vanity. New carpet, fresh paint and updated furniture has turned the upper level into the perfect space for the family with kids and sleeps 6 with a king and 2 double bed. Our daughter, husband and 2 grandkids love having their own space.

The showplace of our home is the dock! 2 boats up to25 feet can dock and the covered upper deck is the perfect perch to catch rays, relax away a lazy day, and watch the sunset over a deep water, secluded cove. A Personal Watercraft Dock was installed in July, 2018 and is available for your use. Duke Power's WarPath Landing is at the beginning of our cove, an outstanding launch facility with new, state of the art ramps and docks and no launch fee. Parking on our property exists for 3 large trailers. A 10 x 16 foot sun deck is just above the dock with a beautiful view of the cove and all the fun your family is having swimming off the dock and is easily accessed by our new, paved path without a step from the lower level of the house. East Cove Paradise is special and perfectly located far away from the craziness of a lake Keowee summer Sunday, please see the reviews to learn more.

Two large bedrooms are on the main floor with two more bedrooms on the lower level. Each level has a full bath, so large groups with multiple families can spread out so each can find their own space.

Our updated game room guarantees your kids will have a blast, even if the biggest one is your husband! It features a Brunswick 8 foot pool table with ping pong top that can be put on it, all the toys you've always wanted but don't have room for at home! Our extensive collection of board games has everything we baby-boomers played as a kid to enjoy on the large game/card table, and we have dandy book, jig saw puzzle and dvd libraries to help you relax during your vacation. A refrigerator with ice maker is located in the game room so you're never far from a cold one. Of course wi-fi and streaming TV are available, but Dan suggests you turn the electronics off for a night or two during your stay and have fun with your kids the old fashioned way!

This home is perfect for a small family or a large group. The rooms are large and flowing but still allow for individual space to 'get away' when needed. You satisfaction and a perfect vacation are our only goals, and our home has a 20 year history of satisfied guests and was the second VRBO house listed on lake Keowee.

Dan and Terry have been owners of East Cove Paradise since 2014. "It's our empty nester investment project! We've put our heart and soul into making ECP the premier Lake Keowee Vacation Pad, and experience a peace on the property that we can find no place else. Each satisfied guest adds to the fun of owning the house."

Since 2014, the following improvements have been made: We've replaced the old, challenging boardwalk approach to the lake with a gentle sloping cement path and a single flight of safer steps. Electric outlets and lights have been added to the lower sun deck and dock so you can fish and cover your boat night. Terraces were built and landscaped making a beautiful front entry garden. Pool and foosball tables have been added to the game room, and a ping pong top can still be put on the pool table for ping pong. A large screen, HD TV and sound system has been added to the great room as well as a new gas fireplace insert. All towels and beds and most of the comforters have been replaced. A 3000 square foot terrace resulting in a beautiful zoysia grass yard was added as part of renovating the septic system in 2019. Our 2020 project was to remove the ugly popcorn ceilings on the main and loft levels, repaint all ceilings and walls on those levels, replace and update all lights, smoke alarms and the fan in the great room, and add ceiling fans to the main and upper level bedrooms. 2021 was exterior year with new driveway, paving the upper parking pad, and new roof. In 2022 we replaced the patio, decks, main door to the back room, windows in great room and built an amazing screened in room over the deck that our guests love. The entire kitchen was update in 2023 replacing all cabinets, countertops and appliances and a new floor installed on the main level, it's perfect in every way. Our 2024 renovation included enclosing the upper level loft, expanding the bath, and new carpet, painted and updated furniture.

East Cove Paradise was worn and tired when we bought it 9 years ago but we saw the potential and perfect cove and lot. We've done much of the renovations ourselves and are proud of the results, turning ECP into the premier Lake Keowee family vacation home has been very satisfying. We thank our guests for providing the needed income to help us achieve our goal of Lake Keowee's Premier Family Vacation Home.

For your safety, cameras exist covering the door, yard and dock to insure the safety and security of East Cove Paradise.

House was great - Owners were cruel
House and location were lovely. Owner is clearly watching us through cameras outside. We got a late check out of 2pm and owners were waiting and watching us and then stormed in at 2:09 yelling at us that we overstayed. They continued to yell until I broke down crying that we were doing our best to get out and they yelled some more. one of our kids brought a comforter down with his bedding when he stripped the bed and we were yelled at for that. It was one of the worst check out experiences I have ever had. I am still traumatized over it.

Great Place for a Family Reunion
The house was the perfect set up and setting for our family which ranged in age from 2 to 67! While we spent most of our days on the lake, the evenings were filled with pool and games. The covered porch is spectacular and after a busy day with littles, it was peaceful to be on the covered porch listening the the sounds of mother nature!

This home has everything. From games to dishes to kayaks. Check-in was very easy and Dan called to make sure we made it safely and to see if we needed anything. The property is spacious and private. The kids had fun fishing, kayaking, swimming, and jumping off the dock. Clear deep water safely off the main lake body. There are plenty of beds for everyone. Thanks, Dan!

We were able to snag this great house very last minute and we could not have been happier! The house sits on a quiet cove on the lake which is perfect! Really loved the beautiful screened in porch and flat back yard for corn hole. House is very well equipped which made our stay great! Great house to rent!

Awesome vacation home!!
We really enjoyed our visit to ECP. Only problem was we would have loved to have stayed longer. Everything is just as pictured on VRBO and Dan was great to communicate with. We have been staying in VRBO homes for several years on different lakes in SC, NC,and Georgia and all the family agreed this was the best one yet. The kitchen is so well equipped with any appliance you can think of. We loved the back porch and I loved the sun deck on the upper part of the dock. Seemed to always be a breeze blowing. Thanks for your hospitality!!!

Look no further!
This property exceeds what you need in Six Mile! Our family thoroughly enjoyed this property using everything it had to offer! We swam in the beautiful cove, cooked in the brand-new gorgeous kitchen, and used the basement area for some billiards and video game playing. Every bed and sofa were comfortable and we slept well. But the highlight of our trip was seeing our daughter graduate with high honors and celebrate with friends and family. East Cove's size afforded the space we needed. Thank you Dan and Terry, for the preview, your great communication , and tireless efforts to make this marvelous home our home away from home!

Fun Family Memories
We had a great time at ECP celebrating a 50th birthday,New Years eve and an SEC win! Traveled to Asheville to tour the beautiful Biltmore all decked out for Christmas, and to Greenville for a little shopping and gaming fun. The ECP lake house was extremely spacious and comfortable for our family of 12 adults and teens. The kitchen was well furnished with everything you need to cook a simple meal or a gourmet feast. They will be renovating the kitchen soon. Cant wait to see it! The linens and cleaning supplies were also well stocked. The downstairs was perfect for family fun. A few friendly matches of ping pong and pool were played as well as some fun board games all available for us to enjoy. We walked the path to the dock just to look around. The Lake is absolutely beautiful and clear. It was of course too chilly to be on the water. It also rained a lot and we weren’t able to enjoy the fire pit that Dan so kindly prepared for us. Maybe next time. Dan and Terry were very kind and quick to respond to all of my messages and calls. I hope we have a chance to return in the warmer months to enjoy some fun on the water. Highly recommend this location for lots of fun, family memories.

Beautiful lakeside retreat
Wonderful host with excellent communication - very responsive when a guest left kindle! The location was perfect for a girls week end get-away - for us mid-way between Columbia and Atlanta. The lakeside view was beautiful and the home included so many amenities both inside and out. Ample provisions (paper towels, tp, laundry/dish soap, dish towels, coffee filters, tissues) and dishes, appliances, serving ware, etc that are often lacking. A multitude of extras to keep everyone entertained and comfortable....games, numerous tvs, outside seating (screened inside) with comfortable furniture and access to lake (paddle boards, kayaks). Although weather did not cooperate the setting was perfect for lawn games (corn hole) as well as a fire pit well stocked with firewood. Only one suggestion for improvement = need better towels and bed linens...a bit worn. Highly recommend this rental!
