Robinson Lake Front Lodge at Jocassee
This cozy mountain lodge sleeps 10 and is located
directly on Lake Jocassee. The house includes a dock with a
newly extended ramp and tie up for boats. Lake Jocassee is
located in the upstate of South Carolina in a pristine
mountain environment. With its crystal clear water and huge
depths the lake is perfect for swimming, boating, skiing,
fishing, and any other water activities you can imagine. The
mountains are also a great place for hiking. There are a
number of great hikes within a short drive from the house.
Located in Salem, SC this mountain home is a truly peaceful
place for a retreat from the hustle and bustle of life.
Great places to visit while you are in town include
Highlands, NC (45 min from the house) and Cashiers, NC (25
minutes from the house). Guests who will be flying in may
want to consider airports in Greenville, SC (about 1.5 hours
away), Atlanta, GA or Charlotte, NC (both about 2.5 hours
away), or Ashville, NC (about 1.5 hours away).
The house was built in 1984 by Bill Robinson and his son
Drew and has been in the family ever since. Each room has a
different wood paneling. The main room is wormy chestnut,
while the bedrooms are oak, pine, cypress, and ash. The
house will sleep 10 in beds but there are also 3 comfortable
sofas.

Access to the Water:
The house is directly on the water. There is a floating dock
with a ladder and full tie-up for boats. A new ramp was
recently installed to allow continuous access to the water
regardless of the water level. Floats or tubes for lounging
in the water are great items to pack because the water is
deep at the dock.
This is a great house for a boat. If you don’t bring your
own they are available for rent (see our
links page for more
information). Pontoon boats are great for cruising the
lakes, ski boats are great if you enjoy water sports, and
kayaks and canoes are perfect for exploring nearby
waterfalls and rivers that feed the lake. Maps and boat
rentals are available at the store at Devils Fork (at the
boat landing) or on their website. There are no gas pumps on
the lake, so you must either take your boat out of the lake
to gas it up, or you can bring your own gas containers that
you can fill up and carry to your boat. |
