South Carolina’s Lake Jocassee is one of the most stunning lakes anywhere in the Southeast. The water is clear enough to see straight down on calm days, and the shoreline is dotted with sandy beaches that feel quiet and untouched. All around the lake, waterfalls spill over high rock ledges and tumble straight into the water, fed by cold mountain rivers flowing out of the Appalachians. The Blue Ridge Mountains rise on every side, creating beautiful views no matter where you are on the lake. Lake Jocassee is also very deep, reaching nearly 350 feet in places. Beneath the surface are standing trees and the remains of an old town that was flooded when the reservoir was built, which is why the lake is also well known for diving.

Greer!
A small town vibe with diversity!
Here’s a few things to know about this rapidly growing community…

Downtown Greer or “Greer Station” is so charming with brick lined streets and a perfect place for a day or night out! Tons of shops, restaurants, bars and a great park too. Greer city park has some awesome events throughout the year including farmers markets, concerts and more!

History:
check out some of the historic mills and buildings in and around Greer like Louis James House, Davenport house and Robert G Turner house. Don’t forget about Gilreath’s mill too.
(Speaking of mills… take a ride over to Taylors, just a few miles over and visit The Farehouse restaurant or 13 Stripes Brewery at a restored mill)

If you love the outdoors take a kayak over to Robinson lake for a gorgeous view of the mountains and some calming exercise or a romantic picnic in the park overlooking the lake!
If you visit Lake Robinson be sure to stop at Los Mayas for some delicious Mexican food after!

Lastly…what about real life?

Most sought after neighborhoods:
Look these up!

🏡Thornblade — A more upscale neighborhood, many homes back up to a private golf course.
🏡 Sugar Mill — Family-friendly subdivision with amenities like a clubhouse and pool.
🏡 Pelham Falls — Known for its scenic walking trails, river walk along the Enoree River, natural rock outcroppings, and a more mature, established feel.
🏡 O’Neal Village — A mixed-use, walkable development with townhomes + single-family homes, green spaces, and a resort-style community layout.

There’s a lot more but this is just a snapshot 😉 Im happy to help with your home search!
