Description

“Its beautiful the setting is more natural some of the benches are made from huge rocks the setting also has a lot of large trees and a river which is pretty clear its own self a stones throw, a lot of picnic tables, and the water is good and cold you just dip it right out, non stop flowing.

You just dip it out its concreted around it and pretty deep, take as much as you want its forever free, the taste might be unusual for one at first due to the minerals in it but its really smooth and i believe it maybe has sulphur in it but by the next day that taste is gone, the town grew around the spring itself which was a healing spring dating back to the 1850′s Its in a park and the address above street wise is for the fire department right across the street from the park, there’s picnic tables restrooms and a playground as well.” – Eric Harvey

    Nice find Eric !!

    This really is a wonderful setting. I filled up a few gallons and a lady and her daughter watched me rather intently while reading the large information sign erected by the SC National Heritage center. I'm not sure if they thought I was actually going to drink from it. The water is cold and flows nicely from the larger bowl to a smaller one and then back down through the ground. The sign says the park is open from dawn until dusk. It has amenities, bathrooms and playground equipment for children. A true gem of a place.

    It is a shame that dog lovers who have their dog in strollers cannot attend the Spring water festival.There needs to be an exception to the rule about no pets during events.When our Shih Tzu is not welcomed we are not either.She had been every year(2 ) until last year.

    This article is very difficult to follow as there is no punctuation.

    I enjoy the spring water, here at the Williamston park- as do my children. I do consider it a rare gem. :)

    Hate to see that last guy drive if the powers out. Poor guy can’t even figure how to read if a period or coma is missing. Wonder what he would do if the traffic lights weren’t operating? #bigcrash
