Discover Our Favorite Kids Programs at The Cliffs
Whether you’re a parent or a grandparent, you know just how challenging it can be to find activities that keep the youngsters in your family entertained.
Fortunately for you, as a member at The Cliffs, you have easy access to both the Blue Ridge Mountains and Lake Keowee –– a natural jungle gym for your kids to play in the natural beauty of the Carolinas while keeping boredom at bay.
Let’s take a look at some of our favorite kids programs at The Cliffs and how you can get your children more involved in our community.
1. Watersports Program
If there’s one thing that is for sure –– kids love being in, on, or around water. Being nestled along the sandy shores of Lake Keowee, our Lake Region at The Cliffs is the ideal place for them to participate in the many watersports available.
We created our watersports program in order to provide a safe environment for the kids (or kids at heart) to learn correct technique and how to properly handle the equipment. It is led by our Outdoor Pursuits team here at The Cliffs. With years of experience, they can guide your young ones as they learn the ropes and get out on the water.
Some of the activities the kids can participate in as a part of our watersports program include paddleboarding, kayaking, wake surfing, wakeboarding, and tubing –– making for an unforgettable experience.

2. Summer Camp
With summer just around the corner, it’s the perfect time to start thinking about signing up your kids for summer camp. Here at The Cliffs, our staff and members come together to lead our summer camps for kids of all ages. Each year, the week-long camp is designed around a different theme that is designed to encourage learning in a fun way. In past years, some of the kid’s favorite themes included the Olympics, safari, and astronauts.
Over the course of the week, the children will take part in a number of exciting outdoor adventures. From hiking, biking, camping, and even zip-lining to water activities like swimming, kayaking, and white-water rafting, your youngsters will create memories that are sure to last a lifetime.
3. Golf Program
It’s never too early for your kids to pick up a golf club and head out on the green –– and at The Cliffs, our premium golfing experience extends to even the youngest of players. Each of our golf courses are directed by golf professionals and instructors with years of experience –– guaranteeing that your children develop good golf habits from the very beginning of their journey with the sport.
With seven premier golf courses to learn on –– each being a different style of course –– your children will be exposed to a variety of challenges early on. In addition to the masterfully designed courses, our state-of-the-art practice facilities are ideal for sharpening their skills and improving their game.
During the summer months, kids and teens can sign up for guided instruction and friendly competition at the golf camps held throughout our communities. There are also a number of junior tournaments and kid-friendly golf events held throughout the year.
4. Tennis Program
Another wonderful sport to get your children involved in from an early age is tennis. At The Cliffs, our 22 courts are always filled with players competing in friendly singles, doubles, and mixed-doubles matches. With both hard and Har-Tru clay courts, your child will get to experience two distinct forms of play, and learn to enjoy this life-long sport for years to come.
Throughout the year, our tennis professionals run clinics and camps for the kids in the community. Here, they will learn proper technique, mental strategy and develop other skills of the sport. As their tennis game develops, they will have the opportunity to put their skills to the test during community tournaments hosted within our gates.
5. Equestrian Program
Another way to bring your children closer to the natural world is through horseback riding. Our equestrian kids programs at The Cliffs at Keowee Vineyards teaches children how to safely be around horses.
During the organized activities, children will learn how to read a horse’s behavior and gain a deeper understanding of them. Our knowledgeable staff will also teach them how to care for and tack up a horse. In addition to the stables, our equestrian facilities have training and riding rings, plus access to more than 200 miles of riding trails. Here, the kids will be able to explore the magnificent mountain scenery and benefit from the fresh, mountain air.
