Named for the vineyards of native muscadine grapes that wind through the community, The Cliffs at Keowee Vineyards blends dazzling mountain vistas with exhilarating lakeside living. Rated by Golf Digest as one of the country’s top private courses, the Tom Fazio-designed golf course lies at an intersection of nature, between Lake Keowee’s aquamarine waters, the Jocassee Wilderness area, and the Blue Ridge Mountains.
