Campbell’s Covered Bridge, Landrum, SC
Adjoining the Greenville County Recreation District, constructed in 1909, this bridge is the last remaining covered bridge left in the state. Luckily, Campbell’s Covered Bridge remains a bright, red pinewood that’s perfect for a fall photo or a brisk, romantic walk or picnic.
The 38ft long, 12ft wide pine structure that spans Beaverdam Creek was built by Charles Irwin Willis.
The bridge was named after Lafayette Campbell, who at the time of the bridge’s building owned 194 acres in the surrounding area. Greenville County now owns the bridge and everything around it.
It has been converted into a passive park where visitors can picnic, explore the remnants of the old mill, and cool their feet on a hot summer day in Beaverdam Creek.

You totally left out all of the beautiful covered bridges of Parke County in Indiana. They are the home of the Covered Bridge Festival held every year in October over a 10 day period.
