The best dog friendly neighborhoods in Darlington

Darlington City Center
Take a walking tour of Downtown Darlington and bone up on your local lore. Start at the St. John Elementary in the north of town and walk through the St. John’s Historic District, where Spanish moss drapes the trees around gracious Victorian homes. Head a couple of blocks east to Main Street and Courthouse Square, built in all brick thanks to an 1825 anti-fire law passed after the first courthouse burned down. Continue south down Main and veer off onto Broad Street: head east for the Darlington Industrial Historic District, and pause in the shade at Frank and Mary Sue Wells Park after viewing the old cotton warehouses. Or, head west for the West Broad Street Historic District: note the historical marker at the Lawrence Reese House and admire the other nineteenth-century mansions.

Cypress Point
10 miles south of Darlington, Florence is a hotspot for doggy dining and retail therapy, with 25 dog-friendly restaurants and two major chain pet supply stores. It also has furrific spots for Spot to exercise. McLeod Park in the Cypress Point neighborhood has the closest off-leash dog park for Darlington pups. With multiple enclosures and a pond for splashing, McLeod Dog Park gives your buddy a shady spot to frolic. Back on-leash, you can explore the trails through the 48-acre park or head a few blocks north to the McLeod trailhead for the Florence Rail Trail. This 5-mile network of converted rail lines lets you explore the city on scenic greenways without dodging traffic.

Great Pee Dee River Heritage Preserve
About 10 miles east of town, the Great Pee Dee River Heritage Preserve is over 2,700 acres of wilderness your pack will love to explore. Take in the views from the 7 miles of river if your dogs like to paddle, or get there high and dry via the hidden entrance on N. Charleston Rd, 1.5 miles northeast of the intersection with SC-34. (The gate will be closed but unlocked. Close it behind you and proceed to the sign-in kiosk.) Another 2.3 miles farther along the main access road are the bluffs over the Great Pee Dee River, where you and Spot can soak up the area's beauty from above. This land is protected from development but open to hunters, so exercise caution; hikers are urged to wear orange.

Lee State Park
About 16.5 miles from Darlington, Lee State Park is a veritable puppy playground. The park's artesian springs are so pure that you (or your buddy) can drink directly from them, and the pond they feed makes a pretty backdrop for a trek on the one-mile Floodplains Trail. The wooded Sandhills Trail is an easy half-mile walk. For big dogs needing big challenges, the seven miles of equestrian trails offer plenty of exercise and some interesting piles to sniff. (Clean up any new piles, please.) The lightly-trafficked Loop Road leads down to the banks of the Lynches River for splashing or fishing. Lee State Park is home to three endangered species, so please keep Spot on leash at all times.

South Cheraw
While your pups can't play on Cheraw State Park's acclaimed golf course, they're welcome in outdoor areas throughout the park. That includes the half-mile boardwalk over the Lake Juniper dam. Or, take your dogs for a paddle in a canoe from the boat rental kiosk. The Turkey Oak Trail is 4.7 easy miles, but you can return along the Cheraw Nature Trail to make it a 1.9-mile loop instead. If your pups are hardcore fitness beasts, you'll also find 9 miles of biking trails that are challenging without wheels. Keep an eye out for endangered red-cockaded woodpeckers and rare fox squirrels -- and make sure you have a good grip on the leash in case your pups see them first.
