History Museum of Travelers Rest

"Great stop at the swamp rabbit trail and very friendly hosts that are eager to share their stories!"

"Lovely visit to the TR History Museum. Three very knowledgeable docent volunteers (including retired Dr. Coleman- so good to see him again!) Generously shared the significant events, stories, artifacts, video footage, and people that contributed to the making of the thriving community of Travelers Rest. RECOMMENDED! (Open on weekends only.)"

"Small museum with a very knowledgable set of leaders who have ties to the local region and love its heritage. There is a reference collection for questions and interesting local history exhibits and special features. I do historical research so this was a great draw for me. I liked the Girl Scout materials and my husband enjoyed getting a resident's perspective on the small communities of the area. Memberships are available."

"It may be small but it has a big impact. The staff were very knowledgeable and friendly. Their lunch recommendation led us to spending a whole afternoon in their wonderful town. Don't miss the used bookstore. I recommend spending the day in the area starting with this great little museum."

"Fantastic museum telling the story of the history of this great town! Great displays that rotate, showing historic artifacts from throughout the towns history, from it's founding in 1808 until present day. A must stop on your visit, no matter if you're just visiting for the weekend or a lifelong resident of Travelers Rest. Knowledgeable docents are ready and willing to answer any questions you may have on your visit. Great selection of books to purchase detailing the history of Travelers Rest!"
