Nobody explains the experience than Anthony Wescott on roadsideamerica.
My wife and I live in Mt. Pleasant, SC and heard about the Springs a couple weeks ago. Being unadventurous, we decided to take the 117 mile trip, after stopping and buying 15 one gallon jugs. Once there, we knew we were in for a treat. So serene and peaceful, with water constantly flowing from the pipes installed for easy filling. The first thing we did was taste the water, and wow! Best water I have ever put in my mouth. No taste like I expected there to be, and so refreshing! We talked to locals and others that had driven just as far as we did, even farther! We drink it every day, and when it's gone, we are going back for more! Nice Amish country store 100 yards down the road that's a must to stop into. Nice owners, very friendly.
