Remarkable PLACES TO REST YOUR HEAD Imagine arriving at your accommodations not by car, but by canoe or kayak. Welcome to Carolina Heritage Outfitters , where treehouses crafted from local lumber rise above the blackwater Edisto River, just out of sight of one another. Yurts dot the wooded landscape of Wildwater Chattooga in Long Creek. Travel down to the rushing river for a whitewater rafting trip, or get your kicks by flying through the zip-lining canopy above. 5 And in Travelers Rest, Field Trip Glamping 's wooden A-frames—with air conditioning and real beds complete with throw pillows—appeal to those who like the idea of camping but can’t live without the comforts of home. In Spartanburg, step back in time as you step into the bright-red caboose—light, airy and restored to its 1947 glory—at Clevedale Historic Inn & Gardens , the scents of wisteria and jasmine wafting in from outside. In the morning, get a mouthwatering whiff of home cooking for breakfast; B&B owner Pontheolla Abernathy says her favorite dish to serve is goat-cheese grits with shrimp. Sip coffee with a side of livestock on the patio at Blu Grace Farm in Marion, where a converted “barndo” is set between pastures home to horses, Highland cows, alpacas and other farm animals just waiting to be petted. 5.
