KateI first visited this place almost a year ago. This has trails and a walkway around a pond. There are many different types of ducks, there are swans, and one time I even saw a crane. There are at Swan Lake Iris Gardens Wood Ducks, Mallards, and various, swans, along with visiting species like Ring-necked Ducks, Redheads, and Ruddy Ducks, and on occasion if you're lucky you may even see a crane like I did. This place is absolutely beautiful and a wonderful attraction if you're visiting Sumter South Carolina. I would suggest making a trip to stop by if you're passing through or if you're visiting to see the beauty of how this is laid out. It's a wonderful place for a date to walk around as well.

Melissa DragoCute place. You can park in first section, (or just drive through) walk around, see displays (many are cartoon/character/kid friendly for pictures), enjoy a few food trucks and free pics with Santa. Hop back in car and it’s a few minute car ride through the displays… I couldn’t believe it was free or that nobody was asking for donations. Fun for a quick evening outing!
