About the reedy river
The Reedy River flows through the upstate of South Carolina and has a rich history dating back to the early 1700s when it was used for transportation and power for mills. It spans approximately 75 miles, beginning in Greenville County and flowing into Laurens County where it eventually becomes the Saluda River. Hydrologically, the river is fed by multiple tributaries, including the North and South Saluda Rivers. Along the Reedy River, there are several reservoirs and dams, including Lake Robinson, Lake Cunningham, and Lake Greenwood Dam, which provide both recreational opportunities and hydroelectric power. In addition, the river has become a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts, including kayakers and anglers, and supports agriculture in the surrounding areas.
