If you’re after a day-trip destination, we’ve got a couple of suggestions. Situated 20 miles away, Florence is worth jumping in the car for. Among your first stops here ought to be Magnolia Mall, Florence Museum and Palmetto Shores Lake. The locals will also probably point you toward Sumter, 25 miles away. If you only have time for one attraction here, let it be Dillion Park. (But we’re also big fans of Sumter Mall and O’Donnell House.)
