Lake Keowee, tucked into the northern corner of South Carolina’s Upstate, offers 18,500 acres of crystal-clear water bordered by rugged granite bluffs and dense forests. It’s a haven for outdoor enthusiasts who favor water-based adventures framed by the Blue Ridge Mountains just beyond the horizon. Here, Rentals of the Carolina Upstate stands out as a premier outfitter, providing access to the lake’s expansive playground via powerful, stylish Viaggio L22U and L22S watercraft.
For a five-day rental, these boats deliver a seamless blend of performance and comfort. Each machine boasts a 150hp engine that handles the lake’s wide open stretches and hidden coves with ease, whether you’re cruising to a secluded swim spot or skimming across the water chasing the sunset. The Viaggio L22U’s U-shaped seating offers plenty of room for a group, alongside a Simrad Bluetooth radio system for your favorite playlists. Alternatively, the L22S features a relaxed lounger layout, perfect for unwinding between stops with an analog Bluetooth sound system.
Safety and convenience are built into every trip: each rental includes 12 adult life vests and a Yeti cooler stocked with ice, making it simple to pack supplies and keep beverages cold during long days afloat. Given Lake Keowee’s mix of rocky shorelines and quiet inlets, these boats provide stability and agility rarely matched in the region.
