About this property

Jocasee Landing Lake Cottage - 1 mi from boat ramp!

Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway. Jocassee Landing is located just 1 mile from Devil's Fork State Park at beautiful Lake Jocassee. Lake Jocassee is the finest lake in the country featuring many waterfalls and scenic views that can't be found anywhere else. The water is crystal clear and this area is wildlife protected so there are only a handful of houses on the lake. Pontoon boat, jet ski, and kayak rentals are available on the lake. The home is also only a few minutes from Lake Keowee, enjoy both lakes from this convenient location!

The space
Peaceful farmhouse cottage features 2 king beds, 1 double, and a sleeper sofa. Kitchen has been remodeled with new granite countertops and all the basics you would need. WiFi, refrigerator, stove, microwave, toaster, washer, dryer, hair dryer, iron and ironing board, 65” smart tv w/Direct tv satellite, DVD player, radio, charcoal grill, fireplace, fire pit, huge porch w/ swings and picnic table.

Guest access
Lake Jocassee is a few hundred yards through the woods out the back door if you like a good hike, but it is much easier to just drive 1 mile to Devil's Fork State Park and enjoy the swimming area there. The boat ramp is just a minute away and you can park a boat and trailer at the house overnight. A PARK PASS IS INCLUDED that will allow your group to use the state park swimming areas and boat ramps for FREE. Plenty of boat parking is at the home.

Nice and clean place

It is a nice and clean place for a lake house, nothing fancy. A single bathroom may require some scheduling, It was four of us and it was ok.

Charming Lake House

If you appreciate original features in an old house this is the perfect rental for you. The house features original wide plank pine flooring, solid wood doors, orignial door hardware which is really cool, orignial timber beam door ways and a great front porch. Marshall has a comfortable set up and a huge tv which is great for relaxing after a day on the lake. There is wifi and dtv. The location is great at the far end of a public road so there isn't too much traffic noise and just short drive to the state park entrance. Marshall, the owner, is very accesible and easy to talk to. Great house! Thanks so much!

Location was the best part

Marshall was friendly and responsive throughout the booking process and stay, which was greatly appreciated. The location was great, parking was a little tricky for our Truck and Pontoon but doable. Not really a place to turn around, if traveling in normal SUV/Car then that's not going to be an issue, there is a driveway to pull in to. The house itself was definitely quite a bit more rustic than anticipated, I washed dishes before using them because they clearly haven't been used in a while. Low ceiling in the bathroom. Hubby is 6' and felt a bit cramped especially in the shower. The floors were quite uneven throughout the dining area and kitchen. Another note to future guests, no food/drink allowed in living room, guests are also required to clean floors before departing(cleaning fee paid upfront during booking). If you leave trash or dirty dishes behind there will also be a fee. The bedrooms were really hot at night, only 1 ceiling fan in the room with the queen bed. The thermostat can only be adjusted temporarily. It made sleeping impossible for me all weekend. I feel like the price per night is a little high considering the condition of the house.

Fun at the lake

The house was great, but we did find a couple of wasp in the house but other than that it was great, the beds were very comfortable and I would definitely recommend it to others

Lake Jocassee trip

Location close to Lake Jocassee, and water access is perfect!! House is older and exterior is aged, but interior has been fixed up with new flooring in areas and new granite kitchen counter/sink, which are nice. Ceilings low, especially in bathroom and shower/tub, for someone taller like me @ 6-4 ". Again, location to the lake is an overriding consideration here, as well as a quiet neighborhood , with a no through street.

Memories made

We had the most amazing experience with our stay at this property. We explored Lake Jocassee all weekend and it was more than we could have ever imagined. Pictures just don’t do the lake justice. The house was perfect for our family. Marshall was unbelievably quick to respond to questions from the beginning and was so very helpful. Neighbors were wonderful as well, even Booger the friendly dog next door who visited us frequently! The kids loved that! We felt very safe and can’t beat the proximity to the lake! We will be back very soon! And I can’t wait. We made the best memories as a family on our vacation at Lake Jocassee.
