Greetings from Anderson, SC!
Welcome to Anderson, SC located on beautiful Lake Hartwell at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Anderson has all the exciting things that a BIG City offers but with the simplicity of a smaller town! Come to Anderson and enjoy peace and relaxation with Farm-to-Table meals, tour Historic homes, shop at the antique stores or immerse yourself in art galleries. There is something for everyone in Anderson! Let us help you plan your perfect trip.
Anderson is right on I-85 between Atlanta, GA and Charlotte, NC. It's easy to get to and from anywhere: a place you will not want to leave once you're here. Anderson has been fondly known as the Electric City since the late 19th century when it became the first city in the South to make use of long-distance cables to carry electricity generated from hydroelectric power plants. Come to Anderson for a hub and spoke tour. We are centrally located to everything. Come and enjoy a Lake Hartwell boat ride, Moonshine Distillery tour and then take a road trip to the North Georgia Mountains to see the waterfalls and mountain folk art. Anderson is right down the road from Asheville, NC, Greenville, SC, and Pigeon Forge, TN. Stay here, play here and hub & spoke out of Anderson... it's that EASY!
