History, Facts, & Stats – Our Unique Beginnings and More Info

Under 2 hours to Charlotte’s South Park Mall or the Beach – in between is our Slice of Heaven:
Hartsville is known in the Pee Dee Region as “The Park with the City in it”

Historic Hartsville

All of this and more – a $4 Billion global giant, a vast influence over modern agriculture, and an historic college,
can be traced back to one man, James Lide “Major” Coker, educated at The Citadel and Harvard

Agriculture and Cotton History

David R. Coker carried on the family legacy of impacting America in Agriculture and this landmark
also provides an impressive pictorial history of Hartsville on the SC Cotton Trail

Data & Stats

Maybe the Perfect Place!

The compelling contrast of a pastoral rural setting in which to live, in a small town that seems to have everything
which could not be better located for growth and for ideal year-round weather
