From the moment you pass the front gates onto Gatewood Drive through a canopy of stately pines and hardwoods, it’s easy to forget that you are only minutes away from uptown Greenwood. Some of Greenwood’s most beautiful homes, accented by azaleas, dogwoods and flowering shrubs, line the boulevards while a network of neighborhood ponds and lakes offer tranquil water accents. With its premier tennis facility, large lakeside pool, walking trails and multi-use clubhouse, Gatewood Club takes full advantage of the temperate southern climate in providing plenty of outdoor activities. Tennis fans play year-round at one of the best private tennis facilities in the area.  For the golf enthusiast, there are courses within minutes of the neighborhood. Wildlife fans can fish the ponds, enjoy a multitude of bird varieties or even glimpse a fox or deer. The miles of paved roads all within the “Gates” are perfect for an early morning run or an evening stroll. And just out the back gate is the Long Cane Scenic area which provides miles of mountain bike, horse and hiker’s trails.
