Upcountry South Carolina: Rock Quarry Falls

Rock Quarry Falls is a 10-foot drop into a pool inside Rock Quarry Garden, a pre-Civil War granite quarry in Greenville's Cleveland Park that the Greenville Garden Club has adopted. Drill marks are still visible on the rocks. Park at the small pull-off on Sherwood Street and follow the stone steps down to the quarry and the falls. Dogwoods and native azaleas bloom in spring.
