ASK ABOUT THE THIRTY NEW BOATSLIPS! What makes this Lake Keowee Cottage special? The price for the updates, the large outdoor patio, outdoor privacy, some furnishings and more!!! It is the current Backwater bargain with the most upgrades for the price. The front door is not facing the neighbor's front door, giving you added privacy on your large private patio. This cottage is the perfect lake getaway and is close to its parking spot and guest parking spots! Upgrades include the large, poured patio and golf cart pad, new flooring, former dropdown cabinets removed, cabinets painted, new quartz countertops, a repainted main interior, cozy shiplap enhancement and more. The HVAC was new in 2016. If you are looking for a low maintenance retreat or a lake getaway, cottage 38 is a must see! This e stablished community offers many amenities. They include a fabulous lakefront lodge and swimming pool, marina, beach, renovated fitness center, walking trails and more. There is no HOA. Cottage owners own their cottages and lease the land. There is a monthly regime of $660 for 2026 for water view cottages that includes land lease, landscaping maintenance, private gated community, gates up keeping, pool, clubhouse, walking trails, fitness center, lighting and more. The monthly fees vary for each buyer based on their specific usage. Monthly fees in Backwater Landing vary based on services such as boat slip rental, storage unit usage, and whether the owner is a full-time or part-time resident in the neighborhood. Contact your real estate agent about the fees structure. This is a private gated community. The gate is monitored with no public access. Entry requires agent representation. No rentals allowed less than a 12-month term. A modified tax structure adds to the savings of this remarkable Lake Keowee cottage. This cottage is on a shared septic of three cottages. To live full time requires developer permission and can be based on septic tank capacity. Please ask about the land lease, boat slip rentals, waitlist, and further details as the developer anticipates the thirty new boat slips (now onsite) to be rentable soon, once work is completed to prepare them for use.
