What makes Greenville a true Southern treasure? For some, it’s the welcoming, rocking-chair porches that stretch across the homes in the historic Main Street District. Others would say that it’s the beautiful old magnolia trees and fragrant camellias.
Many also treasure how Greenville’s perfectly positioned for play. Located a few hours south of bustling Birmingham and all its attractions, it’s also a short drive to sunny relaxation at some of the best beaches in the country.
Greenville also offers a beautiful public golf course. Golfers will enjoy the view from the highest point in the county at Cambrian Ridge Golf Course on the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail. According to Golf Digest, it’s the best stop on the trail.
If you love nature, Greenville’s Sherling Lake is the place for you. You can walk nature trails, fish, camp or park an RV for an extended stay.
Music lovers flock to Butler County to visit Hank Williams, Sr.'s birthplace in Georgiana. The community celebrates its favorite son with a down-home festival each June full of finger-pickin’ music and finger-lickin’ barbecue.
Maybe, though, Greenville’s true treasure lies in its people – warm and friendly people who don’t mind sharing the treasure of Butler County.
