Hartsville

Visit Hartsville's website.

Hartsville manages to combine big city amenities with small town charm and southern hospitality. The result is a magical southern town with a population of less than 10,000 and a million and one things to do!

Visitors to Hartsville can visit one of the many historical sites in the community. Several restored houses are open to visitors. Spend the day canoeing down Black Creek, exploring Kalmia Gardens, fishing on Prestwood Lake, or browsing through the many shops in downtown Hartsville. And, of course, be sure to enjoy a true southern meal from one of the many restaurants in town. Shrimp and Grits, anyone?

Be sure to visit Kalmia Gardens, 30 acres of flora and fauna nestled on the banks of Black Creek. Named for the mountain laurel that has always grown there, Kalmia's unique setting is of special interest to plant and tree enthusiasts, students, photographers and naturalists, as well as those who simply enjoy the quiet beauty of nature. The original 1820s home of Capt. Thomas E. Hart is located in Kalmia Gardens and is open for tours. Owned and maintained by Coker College, Kalmia Gardens' wooded trails, picnic areas, sensory garden, herb garden, and more are open to visitors from dawn to dusk, 365 days a year.
