always great, and The Midlands is no different. There are three rivers here, a

Tubing down the rivers of Columbia has been a long past time of locals especially considering the summers here are brutal. There are two companies that provide all you need to know if you don't go it alone: PALMETTO OUTDOORS & SALUDA RIVER YACHT CLUB
Considering Lake Murray has over 500
miles of shoreline I think it comes as no surprise kayaking and paddleboarding are
pretty popular. Not to mention the three rivers that run right through the city of
Columbia are perfect as well.

United States because it is SO centrally located to so many other great places.
Maybe that's why the founders moved the capital here from Charleston SC. Charleston

with communities in the Charleston area: Isle of Palms with the gated Wild Dunes
