Destination: Greenville/Spartanburg

The Upcountry is another name for the northwest corner of South Carolina situated in the foothills of the magnificent Blue Ridge Mountains. In the Upcountry, it seems city and country living become one. Beautifully serene, the picturesque landscape is complemented by an impressive array of metropolitan conveniences. Here you'll find outstanding restaurants, fabulous specialty shops, charming antique shops - even factory outlet stores.

The South Carolina Upcountry is well suited to a variety of outdoor activities. The area's many lakes, parks, rivers and mountains provide endless opportunities -- boating, fishing, picnicking, swimming, camping, and of course golf. Let your imagination soar!

Golf is one the best reason to visit the Upcountry. Easily assessable, the Upcountry offers an uncrowded alternative with golf courses designed by renowned architects such as George Cobb, Gary Player, Willard Byrd and Tom Jackson. Gently rolling terrain sets the tone for the area's golf courses, with changes in elevation ranging from gentle to drastic, providing the appeal of mountain golf but with a mild winter.
