“The Pretty Place” Chapel/Fred W. Symmes Chapel

“The Pretty Place” Chapel is commonly called that because of the amazing views. Its original name is the Fred W. Symmes Chapel. To read about this historical landmark please go to: https://www.campgreenville.org/pretty-place.

There is a schedule that is posted every two weeks when the chapel is open to the public. It’s open almost every day, but is sometimes closed when it is used for weddings, memorial services, dedications, etc. And sometimes there are last minute changes. I will notify you ASAP if it will be closed on our meetup date. By the way, there is no charge to see the chapel.

Some of you may want to carpool since parking can be a problem. If so, please make a comment in the comment section.

For those who wish to eat afterwards there will be a separate meetup for Cedar Mountain Cafe which is only 17 minutes/ 6.9 miles away from The Pretty Place Chapel. There aren’t many places to eat in the area, but I’ve been to this cafe many times before when I used to volunteer at DuPont Forest Visitors Center, and the food is pretty good. It is relatively small though. But I talked with the manager and they will accommodate 25 people max. from our group. That’s great!

Please check prior to attending this meetup to be sure the chapel will be open to us. I will cancel the meetup and the cafe if it isn’t. I hope that won’t be the case though for I really want y’all to see this chapel ~~ the view is breathtaking!
