This National Park Service site has an excellent Visitor Center and other resources which inform visitors of one of the most important American Patriot victories in the American Revolution. Well worth your time.

We love to walk the park and take in it's beauty. The grounds are well maintained and you feel safe while in the park.

I was made aware of this battlefield through a history education class. This battle was a pivotal point in demonstrating that the patriots could fight and defeat the British. The participants of this battle were the rock stars of their era and now are almost unknown. They have an small but informative visitors center. Lots of open fields where the battle took place, which they keep well mowed. They offer tours of course. A beautiful area to walk, history not withstanding. Well worth the trip to see. Don't forget to visit the web site before going. If you are lucky you will meet the WWII vet that volunteers there.

We came during the January celebration marking the Anniversary of the Battle of Cowpens, and it did not disappoint. Their were all kinds of weapons demonstrations, mock camps set up everywhere, guided ranger tours which were fun and entertaining, drum and fife, and more. This was all free, including the parking. It was a great day out, and I was shocked they did not pay for such an event. My son had just completed a unit on the Revolutionary War, and all of the sights, and sounds really helped bring to life battles, camp life, and more. The grounds were well kept, bathrooms clean, and there is a little museum and gift shop on the premise. We would love to come back.

Carve out 60-90 min from your interstate travels and enjoy kid friendly presentations about a battle in our American Revolution. The park rangers are very informative. The displays are interesting to look at. The 15 min(?) movie is entertaining and easy to follow. And the 1 mile loop around the battlefield will give you and the kids a chance to really stretch your legs.

We took our 3 Scotties to the battlefield for a nice afternoon walk. Little did we know that it was the 253rd Anniversary of the battle. There was lots of things going on, including Fifes and Drums. The grounds are level , so it makes for an easy walk for everyone. It is also incredibly quiet and calming there. It is a wonderful place to spend the afternoon.

After a drive through the SC countryside on a beautiful autumn afternoon, we arrived at Cow Pens NB. We'd joked that this was my mother's first visit to a National Park, and that she should start small.Instead of small, we found a beautiful visitors' center and very helpful rangers. The two presentations, with a light show illustrating the combatants lines, were very well done. Fascinating that the south was where the tide of the Revolution turned - and on a muffled order, to boot.

This location is a nice quiet park where you can enjoy the out doors and history at the same time. Their are signs all along the trails and an up to date digitally enhanced building that shows history movies and holds other military items.

It is nice and we'll maintained and dabbled with history and natural beauty! It is quiet and clean! Would recommend any of the trails!

At Cowpens Battlefield, there is a Visitor's Center and there are information stands along the 3 mile one way loop explaining specific topics of the Revolutionary War. On several weekends of the year, reenactments take place. Check on their website for more information. There are several 'stops' along the loop, such as the Scruggs House, a horse riding trail and many marked trails through the woods. The trails through the woods are not strenuous and have bridges that cross creeks. In the middle of the 'loop' is a rec area with a building, including restrooms and several picnic areas with some having grills. The rec area can be rented - check with the office for details. Great area for a quiet picnic in nature and there is no charge for the picnic areas. Just make sure you clean up after your visit.Drive SLOWLY in the loop since many locals use the loop for running and cycling. Be ready to wave or at least tell others, "Hello!" since we are a friendly southern town.
