South Carolina is a state shaped like an inverted triangle. Columbus, the state capital, is at the center of the triangle. The state’s terrain and relief change from the scenic Atlantic Coast to the forested Blue Ridge Mountains. When driving around South Carolina, stop by a stand of boiled peanuts for a bag of the official snack of the state. Visit local joints for barbecue that is cooked slow and low, and join the ongoing debate about which barbecue sauce is best. In South Carolina, you can be isolated in nature one day and be part of the city crowd the next without skipping a beat. Spend your upcoming holiday in an outstanding accommodation in the Palmetto State. Check out the best Vacasa rentals in South Carolina, USA, below.
