Pendleton District Commission

A landmark is the Pendleton Farmers Society Hall, built in 1828 by a society begun in 1815. More than fifty buildings pre-date 1850, and there is a self-guided walking tour and a cassette tape tour.
Pendleton Historic Foundation
The Pendleton Historic Foundation was founded in 1960 to save the historic house at Woodburn at a time when its future was in peril. While funds were being raised to restore Woodburn, Mead Paper Company donated Ashtabula and 10 acres to the Foundation to protect it from an uncertain future as well. The Foundation now ownes and operates two of the largest Upcountry plantation houses as house museums for the enjoyment and education of visitors of all ages.

Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport
Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport (GSP) is located in Upstate South Carolina, midway between the cities of Greenville and Spartanburg on I-85 (Exit 57). GSP has grown into one of the finest airports in the country, steadily meeting the Upstate's ever-increasing needs.
Hartsfield Atlanta International Airport
Atlanta is big and getting bigger. Generally it moves people efficiently with the help of one of the world's largest airport rail systems. That is not to say that it is problem free with baggage delays not uncommon for arriving passengers and the large concourses designed mostly for the super fit. It's a heck of a long way to some departure gates and, apart from electric buggies for older or infirm travelers, it's a case of walk and fly

vallain says:

It sounds lovely, but I'm very attached to where I currently live. I'd have a hard time giving it up.

Oh Yes, It sounds so charming.

crucialmusic says:

If ever I could leave Wigton I am sure then the answer would be YES!

Friend says:

I'd love to see what the town square and retail areas look like.

ElizabethJeanAllen says:

My next fictional character is going to be from Pendleton, but I may have to change the town's name to protect the unsuspecting.

KimGiancaterino says:

It sounds lovely! Quite a contrast to Los Angeles, where I now live.

sittonbull says:

Thriving metropolis, nestled neatly in the foothills of the "Blue Wall"(Blue Ridge Mountains), cultural center of the South and Sports Capital of the World! Located exactly halfway between Charlotte, NC and Atlanta, GA (2hrs each way)and pleasantly perched on the "high ground" adjacent to the(newly enlarged) shoreline of Hartwell Lake! Four & 1/2 hours to the beach, 20 minutes to Lake Keowee, 50 minutes to Lake Jocasse and the mountains, 2 hours from Augusta and The Masters... The Pendleton Spring Jubilee , Bluegrass Under the Stars... Woodburn, Ashtabula, etc... fine dining and shopping on the square... Karaoke and Jingling draft at the Islander...Four distinct seasons to enjoy...so Naaah... there's probably not that much for you to see and do here! The TV ads say Michigan's a nice place to live?

Tipi says:

Pendleton SC sounds like a wonderful place to live. I'm a country girl at heart and would love to explore the surroundings of nature and meet the natives. I have always wanted to visit SC, but have never made it.

You sure do give a grand picture of Pendleton my dear! I believe I would enjoy a stay. My heart is to move back to Kabetogama Lake, where I am from and be near my Mom. She will be 82 this week.

Joan4 says:

I did live in Pendleton as a youngster. Pendleton is such a busy happy place.

I'm not a tourist, I live here and proud of it! Can you tell?
