Outdoor art and Falls Park connection
The lodge sits inside Falls Park on the Reedy and places guests steps from the park and Liberty Bridge, making riverfront walks and public outdoor art accessible directly from the property. Greenspace and the hotel’s outdoor terraces look directly toward the bridge and falls.
Greenville’s compact downtown places public sculptures and seasonal installations within a short walk; the Swamp Rabbit Trail and park promenades are convenient routes for seeing more public art and murals.
- Falls Park and Liberty Bridge: about a 1-minute walk from the hotel entrance
- Greenspace: 1,800 sq ft turf lawn with views of Liberty Bridge and Falls Park
- Swamp Rabbit Trail: pick up from downtown (about a 5-minute walk) for public-art stops along the route
| Outdoor Site | Distance from hotel |
|---|---|
| Falls Park on the Reedy | 1-minute walk |
| Liberty Bridge | 1-minute walk |
| Swamp Rabbit Trail | About a 5-minute walk |
Events, weddings and meeting spaces with artistic touches
Event venues like the Antlers Ballroom and Greenspace include decorative elements—frosted glass antler chandeliers in the ballroom and river views on the lawn—so art and setting factor into weddings and corporate events. Antlers Ballroom can be divided into Antlers I and II for smaller functions.
Meeting and reception spaces are supported by on-site A/V, event valet parking, and catering from Between the Trees; the Private Dining Room and The Porch are options for smaller, artful gatherings with river views.
