Spartanburg, South Carolina, is called a hub city for both its railroad heritage and its current activities involving art, music, businesses and lifestyle, according to Spartanburg Convention and Visitors Bureau. While vacationers here may enjoy the hustle and bustle of live entertainment, dining and historical tourist attractions, they also may choose quiet times at mountain cabin retreats nearby.
Located near Caesars Head State Park and Mountain Bridge Wilderness Area, Solitude Pointe cabins offer the quiet, natural surroundings the property's name indicates. With a location along the Saulda River, you may enjoy fishing for trout and catfish or take a hike along the private trail system. The property owners have devised a natural scavenger hunt along the trail for added fun.
The six individual cabins accommodate up to six people each, with a master bedroom, loft space and bunk beds or a futon. Cabin styles vary, with some cabins having a screened-in porch, open porch or hot tub. All cabins have a full bathroom and a fully equipped kitchen.
You can enjoy the horseshoe pit, basketball court, tetherball and Friday and Saturday night campfires. Solitude Pointe is located in northwest South Carolina, about 30 miles from Spartanburg.
