4. 4.5 Burt Stark Mansion (27 reviews)
   - Lovely old home, End of the War between States happened here.
   Tuesday: Speciality Museums
   
   
   First I am shocked someone would leave a review that they didn’t go in to this home because of a $10 fee. Our entrance fees to historic sites are what helps keep them alive for us to see. Donations are always accepted as well. These houses just don’t take care of themselves. SMH. This house was lovely! Our tour guide was well informed on the house, she is a member of the chamber and the historical society. President Davis signed the papers to end the Confederacy in this house. The town of Abbeville has so much rich history. All the building are from the 1900’s and some before and all have stories. Highly recommend you stop by and check this one out. Make sure you call ahead of time. And keep in mind all the tour guides are VOLUNTEERS. They don’t get paid to do this they do it because they love it. Pay the fee and enjoy it with them!

5. 4.5 Parson's Mountain Recreation Area (6 reviews)
   - Very cool hiking spot
   Spent 2-3 hours Nature & Wildlife Areas • Hiking Trails • Forests
   
   
   The park offers a medium sized lake to kayak or fish on. There are also trails throughout for hiking, biking, and OHV. One trail leads to some abandoned gold mines, and if you continue up the mountain there is a lookout tower (can't climb it), but you get 360 degree views of the surrounding area from over 800 feet up. Great views in the Fall! There are also some other trails that offer a more challenging hike, and often times hard to follow the blazes. Overall definitely worth a trip if this sounds like your kind of day adventure. See more..
