Coined “Flowertown in the Pines,” Summerville, SC is a beautiful, historic town ideally located within the state and lowcountry. It’s close enough to Charleston to get your fill of city life and upscale amenities. Or take an easy day trip to one of several beach communities, each with its own special vibe.

Of course, there’s a lot about Summerville to keep you close to home. Situated on a pine-forest ridge, this is still a place where nature and town live in harmony. 

The downtown area is rich in history. And fine arts, museums, local retail and dining all embrace preservation of the town’s charm.

The neighborhoods are active and safe, instilling a sense of community. And the Dorchester II School District is among the best in the state.

Equally, protected lands and extensive trail systems are in no short supply. Every spring, there’s the magnificent color and fragrant scents that linger in the air. Millions of flowers, particularly azaleas, blossom. With the flowers come the visitors and the celebrations. Summerville’s famous Flowertown Festival goes into full swing. Live among it all.
