Savor The Simplicity At Glencairn Garden

Need a peaceful escape? Step into the beauty of Glencairn Garden, a place that has made a shift from a simple backyard garden to 11 acres of tranquility.

Just imagine, relaxing amidst nature, book in hand, a basket of goodies by your side – sounds like the spring day of dreams, doesn’t it?

Revisit History At Kings Mountain State Park

If the adventurer in you is itching to explore, then Kings Mountain State Park awaits your arrival. Trek across miles of paved trails or fish in the peaceful lake, and if that doesn’t stoke your interest, they’ve got a historical farm with horses and mules. How’s that for a Spring day trip?

If you fall for the charms of this place (which we’re sure you will), don’t worry about rushing back home. They have campground accommodations inviting you for a two-night stay, surrounded by serenity.

Unleash Your Inner Water Sport Enthusiast At Lake Wylie

Anyone here in love with water sports or simply a relaxed boat ride? Well, Lake Wylie is your go-to place. You can engage in intense water sports like water skiing or paddleboarding, or simply float your worries away on a leisurely boat ride.

Better still; you can plan an entire day on the lake! Just rent a stand-up paddleboard from the Goat Boater and you’re ready to rock and roll. After all, what screams spring more than a day spent splashing on the water?
