Getting Here
All Roads Lead to Chester County
Escape the city without the long drive. Located directly along the I-77 corridor, Chester County is the perfect midpoint for travelers seeking a slower pace. Whether you’re coming for a weekend of adventure or a quiet afternoon of shopping, getting here is the easiest part of your trip.
We’re closer than you think:
- From Charlotte, NC: A quick 45-minute drive south.
- From Columbia, SC: Just 50 minutes north.
- From Rock Hill, SC: Only 20 minutes away.
Arriving by Air or Rail
If you’re traveling from further afield, we are conveniently positioned between two major travel hubs:
- Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT): 45 miles north.
- Columbia Metropolitan Airport (CAE): 60 miles south.
- Amtrak: Regional stations are available in both Charlotte and Columbia for easy rail access to the area.
A Note for Road Trippers
Our scenic backroads are just as inviting as the interstate. If you have the time, swap the highway for our winding secondary roads to experience the “untouched” landscape of the South Carolina Upstate before you even reach downtown.
Safe travels—we’ll see you soon.
