Quick Summary:

  • One of the greater Charlotte area’s fastest growing communities, Fort Mill in South Carolina is still a place of Southern hospitality and a number of things to do for both visitors and locals alike.
  • Maintaining a small-town atmosphere, the place gets its name from the colonial-era fort constructed by the British, as well as a grist mill situated on the Steele Creek nearby.
  • Less than thirty minutes outside of Charlotte, Fort Mill offers pleasant scenery, particularly on the Anne Springs Close Greenway, and a welcoming change of pace, with a downtown district with locally owned restaurants and shops.
