Quick Facts
Why Travelers Rest & the Blue Ridge Foothills
Travelers Rest sits at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains in South Carolina’s Upcountry, its name dating back to when Lowcountry travelers stopped here to rest before continuing north into the mountains. The town anchors the northern end of the 22-mile Swamp Rabbit Trail, connecting to Greenville, and offers easy access to three nearby state parks along with genuinely walkable dining, breweries, and shops.
Field Trip leans into real variety, with domes, yurts, A-frames, and bell tents all on one property, plus a genuinely popular hot tub, sauna, and cold plunge combination.
