Clemson Rowing Boathouse
The
Clemson rowing boathouse is located
on the western edge of Clemson's
campus, overlooking beautiful
Lake Hartwell.
Construction
for
Clemson
Rowing's
expanded
training
facility
began
in
the
spring
of
2006.
The
project,
which
is
slated
to
be
completed
in
the
summer
of
2007,
will
give
the
team
one
of
the
best
facilities
in
the
ACC
and
South
Region.
The
11,500
square
foot
facility
will
house
an
expanded
locker
room,
additional
workout
space,
team
meeting
room,
athlete
lounge
and
coaches'
offices.
Only a quarter of a mile from the other athletic facilities, the boathouse seems worlds apart lying in a secluded wooded area on the shore of one of the Southeast's largest lakes. With 56,000 acres of water and 962 miles of shoreline, Lake Hartwell offers plenty of rowable water. Built as an Army Corps of Engineers project in 1962, the lake includes many pristine rivers, creeks and inlets that provide sheltered water on even the windiest of days.
Lake Hartwell facilitates an ideal venue for the Tigers' fully buoyed, six-lane 2000m race course. The entire course is visible from the boat house.
