Summer of Fun 2017

“Eclectic Sun at Lake Jocassee and the Sun is always shining”! Sometimes it may be obscured by some form either atmospheric or in this case celestial matter, makes no difference because you are lucky enough to be on Jocassee. As the moon shadowed the Sun’s very bright center on August 21st, 2017 the lucky witnessed a truly rare event here above Lake Jocassee of a Total Eclipse. And it was Awesome! The summer of 2017 has been full of fun and wondrous events and as we look forward to the Fall of 2017 we expect more of the same.

April Showers Feed Lake Jocassee and the Surrounding Jocassee Gorges

April Showers Feed Lake Jocassee and the Surrounding Jocassee Gorges

April Showers Feed Lake Jocassee and the Surrounding Jocassee Gorges

April Showers feed Lake Jocassee and bring May flowers.

The forecast is rain for Lake Jocassee and the surrounding area of the Jocassee Gorges. Rain is a very good thing. Eclectic Sun is all about the radiant sun of Jocassee. While we love the sun-filled days to bask in the glorious warmth of the sunshine, we need rain. Rain is the resource that feeds our beautiful Lake Jocassee and all the green lush vegetation of the Jocassee Gorges. So not only do we love the sun, but we also love rainbows that often follow the rain.

The lake is down, way down but never fear it will fill back up in its own time. So enjoy the diverse landscape Lake Jocassee shows us every so often as the underlying shore is exposed. Paddle your kayak, and explore the niches you can’t always see or investigate. A wonderful informative article can be found by following the link.  http://www.scwildlife.com/articles/julyaug2009/jocassee.html  Enjoy the tales of years gone by when the lake had levels similar to what we have now.

Lake Jocassee, as you probably know, is used to produce hydro-electric by Duke Energy. So actually the lake levels vary every day in the process of pushing and pulling water to create energy with this awesome feat of engineering. Even though Jocassee is nearly 400′ deep in places and there is little risk of it running dry, the rain is still always a welcome sight.

Without rain, we all know we are in for trouble. So as the rain falls like gushing cascades from my roof, I thank heaven for the much-needed nourishment to the paradise we call Jocassee.  April showers will bring the May flowers to our beloved Jocassee, and that too is a very good thing!

Eclectic Sun, on beautiful and scenic Lake Jocassee, is Devils Fork State Park’s on-site supplier for all things to do on and around the lake. The “PAVILION” in the day use picnic area of the park is where you will find us. Eclectic Sun is a genuine Surf Shop and Snack-Bar combined. Watersports equipment is available for sale and rent.

Happy 5th Birthday Eclectic Sun

Happy 5th Birthday Eclectic Sun

by | Apr 8, 2017 | Eclectic Sun, Holidays, Lake Jocassee, News

Happy 5th Birthday Eclectic Sun

APRIL IS ALWAYS A HAPPY BIRTHDAY MONTH TO ECLECTIC SUN AND A WELCOME TO SPRING ON LAKE JOCASSEE.

Eclectic Sun at Lake Jocassee is happy to celebrate our 5th birthday on April 8th, 2017. Eclectic Sun came to be on Easter Sunday 2012. The Eclectic came from the eclectic group of people who come to Lake Jocassee and this beautiful peaceful area. With all our differences in culture and language, we are still inspired by the same serenity of the area. And of course, the Sun came from our love of beautiful sun-filled days and memories.

So together we are able to share the resource and the awesome beauty of Lake Jocassee. Devils Fork State Park is the only access to this wonderful paradise. Located in the picnic area of the park, Eclectic Sun is happy to provide the means to explore this wonderland. Whether you want to tour at your leisure on a pontoon tour of the many waterfalls on Jocassee or challenge yourself against the elements, to explore the area on a kayak, canoe or paddleboard, you are always treated to a spiritual experience.

We are celebrating in a big way with specials set to bring our families and friends far and near out to Jocassee to enjoy the paradise we are fortunate to live and work in every day. Bring your family and friends and join us as we celebrate Easter, Spring and a milestone birthday for Eclectic Sun.

Early Spring and Easter week always seem to bring renewed vibrancy to the paradise that is the Jocassee Gorges. Everything which surrounds Devils Fork State Park and Lake Jocassee is bursting in full color. The lake and all the areas around the lake are coming alive to rival all the other seasons. Join us this week and celebrate all that is good in the world.
