Summerton Vacation Rentals, Hotels, Weather, Map and Attractions

Summerton is a small town located in Clarendon County about 47 miles southeast of Columbia and 115 miles south of Charlotte. As of the 2000 census, the town had a population of 1,061 residents. Summerton offers all the hospitality, beauty and charm you would expect of a small southern town. It is part of Clarendon County, which is located on the northern shore of Lake Marion. Interstate 95 bisects the county, which is convenient for visitors to the area. Lake Marion is one of the two lakes in the Santee Cooper Lake System (Moultrie Lake is the other.) These two lakes are joined by a 6.5-mile diversion canal and known as world-class fishing lakes. They were created between 1939-1942 for a hydroelectric project by the South Carolina Public Service Authority. The two lakes do not ice over during the winter, so weather permitting, fishing is allowed year 'round. The Santee National Wildlife Refuge is located along the Lake Marion north shore. Over ten miles of roads and three miles of foot trails are inside the refuge. Activities include wildlife viewing, hiking, and photography. Bank fishing is permitted in the Wildlife Refuge April thru September. Other nearby points of interest include Woods Bay State Park and the town of Summerton is also near several historic sites, many of which date to the American Revolution.
