by Cutie_pi - Top 500, Mar 17 '00
Pros: Quiet, low cost of living, light traffic for commuters Cons: Boring, hot, high crime rate, high property taxes
In this, the second installment of the "Cutie Chronicles," I will cover the next leg of our tour of the southeast. For five months (seemed like five years) we resided in Columbia South Carolina - home of the Gamecocks, Hootie and the Blowfish...

Pros: The kids will love it. Cons: Just about everything else.
Review Topic: Sights & Attractions
Every time we get in the car for any road trip, my wife and two sons yell out "South of the Border! South of the Border!" over and over again. Usually they tire of it...

Pros: Great golf, a lot of other activities, good climate during many different seasons, a little for everyone Cons: Can be expensive, tourists abound during the warmer months
Ah, the annual rites of spring: Opening Day, the NCAA Finals, and The Masters. For golfers, The Masters often signifies the beginning of spring. The flowers begin to bloom, the air warms up, and we begin to hit the links.
One of the best...

Pros: Low cost of living, great schools, nearly prefect weather, vibrant arts scene, resurgent downtown. Cons: Conservative mind set, sprawl, might not feel cosmopolitan enough for some people.
Spartanburg might just surprise you. No, Spartanburg is not a genuine vacation destination like Charleston or Savannnah or Washington, DC. Spartanburg might just be the perfect spot to raise a family, open a new business, or retire. Let me tell you ...

Pros: Great view and pool/beach area Cons: Rooms are dated and in need of renovation
Review Topic: AccommodationsI had to read my confirmation slip a few times to make sure I booked the right hotel, but yes, it was the Hyatt Regency Hilton Head Resort, not the Hilton.
Although Hilton Head is a wonderful destination, a...

Pros: Freshness and preparation of individual ingredients in seafood "stew" were outstanding. Cons: Extra spices, instead of being offered on the side, were directly added in great excess. Other ordered items a disappointment.

Pros: Downtown Greenville, great arts and culture, greenery, shopping, nightlife, restaurants Cons: Overdevelopment, suburban sprawl, high crime areas, traffic, air pollution, litter
Greenville, South Carolina – admit it: you’ve either never heard of this city or only remember it because George W. Bush caught flak for campaigning there at puritanically conservative and potentially racist Bob Jones University. You don’t know a thing...

Pros: a place with a lot of character Cons: none big enough to deter you from checking it out
Review Topic: Overview
Right now I am watching the Clemson vs. Maryland football game on ESPN2, and there is something I just cannot get over. Last week, I was there. I was there—a New England, Boston-based, Yankee girl at...

Pros: Beautiful, quiet, charming, relaxing Cons: Aside from the drinking water, nothing I could find
My family & I traveled to Edisto Island, South Carolina this year for a four-day New Year's get away. What a beautiful place!
If you are looking for a quiet, relaxing, and rustic vacation spot, think of Edisto for your next trip. There...

Pros: Interesting scenery Cons: Southern hospitality
I must say that I went on vacation in this state because my step daughter was graduating at the beginning of June. She lives in South Carolina. I, myself, do no support the Rebel Flag flying over the state capitol. That said, we can get on with the...

Pros: It's kind of a guilty pleasure, the kids will like it Cons: Expensive, tacky, hot almost year round
Located off of Interstate 95, just south of the North/South Carolina border, you will find one of the tackiest places on the eastern seaboard - South of the Border. You will notice, both north & southbound on I95, big billboards warning...

Pros: Great beaches,nice people,lots of activities Cons: Can be expensive and crowded - especially during the summer months
OK, I'll admit it. I love Hilton Head Island, SC. I know, I know...I've heard it all before - It's one long parade of mini-vans with cartop luggage carriers and license plates that read Ohio, Indiana and other mid-western states. It's filled with senior...

Pros: Sun and sand Cons: It is a quiet town
That is what the sign says as you pass over the bridge on I-17 and enter Folly Beach .... the edge of the America. A small island (connected by marshes and a bridge to Charleston) is quiet and beautiful.
Partially populated by a league of old...

Pros: A great vacation spot Cons: traffic has really increased over the years
Hilton Head for Couples did a great job of telling about the island. I too stay at Adventure Inn. Eight years ago, we bought a time share there for $1200 dollars. This is not a deeded property but had 15 years left on a 25 year lease. It was a...
