Keowee Key is located in the “Golden Corner” of South Carolina and attracts people from all over the Country due to its moderate climate and spectacular scenery. You cannot help but be amazed at the quiet beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains of South Carolina, North Carolina and Georgia that can be seen while cruising Lake Keowee. Add to that, the area retains its Southern charm and easy going lifestyle. Within an hour drive are over two million acres of public lands (National and State parks). Area residents enjoy exploring and finding over 100 waterfalls just a few miles away in the Blue Ridge mountains. No wonder the Cherokee called this area “mountains with tears”. In fact, the highest waterfall east of the Mississippi, Whitewater Falls, is
located only twenty minutes away. Hikers have a seemingly unending trail system with varied degrees of challenge. And “geocaching” is a favorite “sport”. Lake Keowee, nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, is one of only two blue water lakes in SC. Clean, clear, 22 miles long with 350 miles of
shoreline, it is the perfect place to enjoy water sports of all kinds or just relax on one of the many islands in the lake. And it’s a hunters paradise with ample WMA land. Fishermen enjoy a challenge of not only fishing in Lake Keowee but also Lake Hartwell. With 962 miles of shoreline covering 56,000 acres, Hartwell is well known for it “Striper” bass fishing and the annual Bassmaster fishing tournament. This is an exciting region. Enjoy the small town atmosphere of Seneca and “Ram Cat Alley” with its restaurants and shops. Cross Lake Hartwell, just five miles away, and you are in the “City” of Clemson and Clemson University. Few events are more exciting than seeing OUR Clemson Tigers play football in Death Valley surrounded by a “sea” of orange as 83,000 fans cheer. Wish to enjoy more than sports? The University reaches out to the community with an array of cultural activities including an ever expanding continuing
education program.(OLLI-Osher Lifelong Learning Institute) Enjoy theater? Concerts? Clemson University attracts talent from all over the world and encourages residents to become part of the Clemson family. Greenville's Peace Center for the Performing Arts, just an hour away, offers another alternative. Greenville, a “jewel of the South” has a vibrant downtown that hosts outdoor concerts, theater and dining second to none. Stroll next to the “Reedy River” waterfalls as you enjoy the Historic “West End” and it’s art studios, boutique shops and fine dining. Travel is made easy as your home is only one hour from Greenville Spartanburg airport or two hours from Atlanta’s Hartsfield airport. Need to put your feet in the sand? Charleston, SC and the Atlantic is only four ½ hours via interstate. Tired of snow? Though a change of seasons is enjoyable, snow is a rarity and when it comes, it disappears in a day or two.

Wright Creek Falls
Wright Creek Falls is located on Lake Jocassee and is only accessible by boat. This is an incredible place to take the kids for a remarkable swim under and through a true wilderness water fall. There is a sandbar in the middle of the middle of the pool for kids to stand on. Depending on the water level, the sand bar could be above water or it could be 3 feet below water.
If you don't have a boat, you can rent one. If you don't want to rent one, you can hire a lake tour guide. Here are a few to choose from:

Bear Cove Trail | Devils Fork State Park | 2017 | Lake Jocessee | South Carolina | USA
In this vlog we are hiking the Bear Cove Trail at Devils Fork State Park in South Carolina, USA. This trail follows the water, so there are lots of views of the river, and the woods. You start from the visitor center and walk from there!
This trail is about a 2.0 (two) mile loop from the start of the trail head (kiosk). It is a nice dirt path that is a little bit hilly, but not difficult. It has an easy trail rating, so it should be good for many people including children and pets.
The lake which this trail follows is called lake Jocassee. As you hike this trail you will get intermittent views of lake Jocassee as you go, and a couple spots where you can heave the trail you've been hiking on and enjoy the lake.
On this hike you may see some of the following hardwood trees: dogwood, black cherry, red maple oak and pine.
This trail is easily followed and blazed in white (aka follow the white trail markers).
This is a beautiful lake and hike in Upstate South Carolina. The lake itself is 7,500 acres big! So there is lots of boating (Three (3) boat ramps exist) and fishing going on, in and around, lake Jocassee.
There are also 25 tent spots which exist, but they go fast!
Admission to the park is $5 and wifi is available.

Foothills Trail Hike - Laurel Fork Falls to Bad Creek
We hiked the Foothills Trail Section Laurel Fork Falls to the Bad Creek Parking Lot. We got a Boat Shuttle at Lake Jocassee (Jocassee Outdoor Center in Salem) and began at Laurel Fork Falls. The first few miles were tough - especially Heartbreak Ridge. This section of the Foothills Trail had some beautiful views and gorgeous bridges. My Essential Oils even came in handy - I used Young Living Deep Relief on my neck and shoulder to relieve the pain from carrying a heavy back pack.

Whitewater River from Lake Jocassee to Moondance Falls
This is the last part of our Lake Jocassee fun day. Again, there is no audio.
From the Thompson River, we headed to the mouth of the Whitewater River. We had to swim a short distance from the boat since there wasn't anything closer to tie off to. The video begins just up river from the lake. We stopped at Moondance Falls, then the last part of the video shows a bit of climbing down and the swim back to the boat
