The Knothole Saloon, located in Lake Wylie’s first retail space on SC 49, is undergoing renovations with plans for a new retail shop. Carl Vaughan originally built the Old Time Beverage Shop and ABC store at the space on SC 49 in 1976. “It was the first retail building on that side of Lake Wylie,” he says. “The Hungry Fisherman (now T Bones on the Lake) was the only other thing around. I opened The Knothole Saloon about three years later.” Vaughan later leased The Knothole and rented the rest of the building to Traditions of the Carolinas: Good Byes, the antique and estate sale store that recently relocated to Lake Wylie Hardware as The Estate Boys. Vaughan, who lives in Sharon, is replacing the roof and air conditioning and cleaning the space for a new tenant. “My architectural drawings are being reviewed by the county, and as soon as I finish the work, I’m going to try to turn it back to retail,” he said. Vaughan added rumors of a barbecue restaurant going into the former Knothole Saloon space aren’t true. “It won’t be another restaurant,” he said.
