The Cliffs - Lake Region
The Cliffs Lake Region encompasses three distinct private, gated golf communities—The Cliffs at Keowee Springs, The Cliffs at Keowee Falls, and The Cliffs at Keowee Vineyards—set along the pristine shores of Lake Keowee, an 18,500-acre lake nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Each community offers its own character while sharing access to all seven of The Cliffs communities and amenities.
Together, these communities feature a Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course and two Tom Fazio-designed golf courses, a full-service marina, three distinctive clubhouses, lakeside dining, an equestrian center, and miles of scenic trails. The seasonal Beach Club and Lake Club, each with swimming pools, serve as vibrant gathering places and the center of lakefront recreation and social life.
Keowee Springs
Set across 1,600 acres along the shores of Lake Keowee, Keowee Springs is designed for an active, family-oriented lakeside lifestyle. Residents enjoy boating and watersports, the popular Beach Club, and access to kayaks and paddleboards at The Lake Club, along with miles of scenic trails, pickleball courts, a sportsman trail, and a disc golf course.
The community is home to one of Tom Fazio’s most innovative designs, featuring three interchangeable six-hole loops and family tees that allow players of all ages to enjoy the course together. Overlooking the 18th hole, the clubhouse, designed by Hart Howerton, offers sweeping views and thoughtfully connected spaces that integrate dining, bar areas, the golf shop, and a modern wellness center—serving as the social and recreational heart of the community.
Keowee Falls
Spanning 2,500 acres and more than 20 miles of pristine Lake Keowee shoreline, Keowee Falls offers a serene mountain-lake setting defined by natural beauty and championship golf. At its center is the Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course, recognized by Golfweek as one of the “Best New Golf Courses,” thoughtfully designed to follow the rolling contours of the land in a traditional core golf layout.
Overlooking the course, the clubhouse provides sweeping views of the surrounding mountains and fairways, creating a welcoming setting for dining and social gatherings. Additional amenities include a newly expanded wellness center, tennis and pickleball courts, and a scenic trail system for hiking and biking—offering residents a balanced lifestyle rooted in recreation, wellness, and connection to the outdoors.
Keowee Vineyards
Named for the native muscadine grapes that wind through the landscape, Keowee Vineyards blends sweeping mountain vistas with vibrant lakeside living. Its Tom Fazio-designed golf course, ranked among the nation’s top private courses by Golf Digest, is uniquely situated between the aquamarine waters of Lake Keowee, the protected Jocassee Wilderness, and the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Amenities include a 20,000-square-foot clubhouse, a seasonal lakeside restaurant, a marina, and a wellness center. The community also features an equestrian center with training and riding rings, a stabling barn, and access to more than 200 miles of trails extending into Jocassee Gorges State Park. Keowee Vineyards is also home to The Cliffs private party boat, the Magnificent 7, offering a one-of-a-kind way to experience life on the lake. Request More Information now!
