My husband and I wanted to sell our home located in Greenwood, SC. Based on a referral from a friend, we sought the help of Prudential Cambridge Realty.

We were extremely impressed with the service that the Prudential agent provided. Our whole experience was beyond words, awesome to say the least. It was our first experience selling a home, so we were a little wary; however, after meeting with out agent, all of our fears were laid to rest.

After deciding to go with Prudential Cambridge Realty, we put our home on the market. What was so unique about our experience is that within 1 weekend we had 3 offers. One of which was from a man that lived across the country. He had only seen our home via the internet. After seeing the virtual tour, the gentlemen made us a full price offer. We just could not believe it. The marketing of our home was fantastic.

We were just so pleased with our whole experience from beginning to end. We would highly recommend Prudential Cambridge Realty to anyone who is in the market to sell their home. We feel very blessed to have worked with such a wonderful team at Prudential. They have a courteous staff that will be there to help you from beginning to end.

The Lake Greenwood State Park is a beautiful 915-acre pine and hardwood forest with five peninsulas that extend out into the lake. Located on the western shore of Lake Greenwood, the state park has over 125 campsites and 4 picnic areas.

Lake Greenwood is a man-made lake which was created between 1935 and 1940 by the construction of the Buzzard's Roost Dam near Chappels, SC. Water was impounded to a surface elevation of 440 feet above sea level, which was later revised to 439 feet above sea level for efficient operations and reserve storage capacity.

On many South Carolina license tags there is a very distinct symbol located in the center of the tag. It is a Palmetto tree, which is the state tree of South Carolina. Although Palmetto trees are normally found growing in coastal areas of the state, there are a few growing in other areas as well. One such place is Lake Greenwood.

Lake Greenwood offers lake living for all budgets ranging from Luxury Gated Lakefront Communities and Charleston style Carriage Homes to more traditional lake homes, condos and weekend retreats!

Recent years have brought considerable development around the lake, which is becoming a choice residential and retirement area for Greenwood, Laurens, and Newberry counties. New residents and homeowners are coming to Greenwood Lake from all parts of the country to enjoy the lake views, boating, water sports, fishing, and golf.
