We wanted this type…read moreof event in place of a more formal rehearsal dinner, because we wanted the all of our wedding invitees to get two nights together to eat, drink, and celebrate--Swanson's was a perfect spot! The contact at Swanson's was easy to work with. The event was affordable and casual yet intimate. We picked the caterer. We hosted this event on December 30th so the colorful string lights felt perfectly festive! And the signs of Greenville's past covering the walls were fun for the Greenville natives--it took them back! (Photographer: Julia Madden Sears)

There is canned beer of varying prices (starting with some $1 beer, including the classic PBR) up to fancier craft beer ($3, $5, or $7) and you can pay with a card. They don't have food but their very salty popcorn is free. Inside, walls are covered in "vintage" local signs, making for some good conversation pieces. There are a couple booths on the wall, but it's mostly standing room unless you borrow a camping chair. Outside it looks liike to you're walking into a garage, but it does look like they have parking (wish I saw it before paying at the lot around the corner. It's a cute, simple little venue, and the band we saw was fantastic! I'd come back dependIng on the band.

This is a nice event space, but improvements are needed. The layout is nice downstairs with an…read moreindoor air conditioned area, a patio, and then a grassy space down the steps. With the Edison bulbs strung overhead, a wedding here would be very nice but be sure to ask about how long and how loud you can play music. There are clear garage doors that separate the indoor space from the covered patio area. They can't be opened without a city permit, so if you want to use them you'll need to look into this. The bathrooms are large. There is no refrigerator, but there is what I think was a warming cart, a sink, shelves, and a rolling cart in the kitchen area. Parking is tight. When we arrived, the tables inside and out as well as the chairs were covered with pollen. They don't provide any cleaning supplies so we had to get our own and do the cleaning ourselves. When we viewed the property the day before, I thought for sure everything would have been cleaned as part of the price. Wrong! As we were cleaning the chairs they also had grease buildup so they hadn't been cleaned/sanitized in a while. We actually needed more tables but didn't find out until later that there were plenty of them in the upstairs area. The worst part of the evening was the person on duty. He was visibly unhappy to be there and unfriendly. He would only look at us but not speak. When my husband asked about trash bags (you might want to bring those, too) he threw a couple of them his way. As we were cleaning up, I apologized for the delay and he didn't even look at me. And then as we were leaving and I asked if we had gotten everything, he nodded and slammed the gate in our face. We were dumbfounded. I hope the owners realize this doesn't make for good business. I don't like leaving mediocre reviews unless they are deserved, and this one was.

Spending time along the Reedy River in Greenville is such a special experience. There are several…read morebeautiful spots to sit and relax, especially near the Grand Bohemian Lodge Greenville, and the bridge is a wonderful place to stroll while enjoying the soothing sound of the river and waterfall. What makes it even more meaningful is the history behind it. Beginning in the late 1700s, water-powered industries clustered along the Reedy River, including trading posts, grist and corn mills, a sawmill, an ironworks, the Gower, Cox and Markley Coach Factory, a paper-making factory, and an armory. A century later, textile and apparel mills were established along its banks. Unfortunately, the mills discharged waste and excess dyes into the river, and the Reedy began to suffer from the spoils of progress. By the mid-20th century, downtown Greenville's stretch of the river was so severely polluted by upstream textile mills that the once pristine and popular falls became desolate and unsafe. Seeing how beautiful and vibrant the area is today makes you truly appreciate the restoration and revitalization efforts. It's peaceful, scenic, and rich with history -- definitely a must-visit when you're in Greenville. Cheers!

I needed to visit the area for business and decided to stay here this trip. The hotel is quite…read morelarge and modern looking and it's right in the middle of downtown, very walkable to many places to eat and drink. Arriving, there's valet out front, but I wasn't sure where to drop the car off, as they were too busy chatting to greet me, so I parked and went to greet them. They were definitely friendly once I did this, but it wouldn't been nicer if they were paying attention to newly arriving customers. Then on my last night, I dropped the car back off after I returned from dinner and told the valet I needed to leave around 4AM the next morning. He said valet doesn't open until 6AM, so he would leave my car parked out front and leave the key at the desk. Of course I came down at 4AM and my car wasn't there. The front desk lady called someone who went and got the key and car, which was contrary to what the guy told me the night before. One more issue with valet - They always had way too many cars parked in the circle out front which totally clogged traffic and prevented driving through. I went to leave and had to back out of the drive into the road rather than drive around through their circle - this was pretty dangerous. Checking in was much worse... the young man who checked me in simply gave me a key and said very little. I had to come back to ask him if there was a lounge, free breakfast, water for the room, basically all the points he's supposed to review with me. He couldn't have been more dismissive. As for the room, it was nice. Plenty of charging ports and outlets. A new modern style, with European style toilets in the bathroom and plenty of lighting throughout the room. I definitely don't like rainfall shower systems, especially with that style of handle, where there are two and you don't know which does what. The TV worked well and even had all the newer streaming services, which was great. The HVAC system was quiet and effective. Next time I'm in town I'm going to probably stay at the Westin across the street.
