Visit the Park


BEFORE YOU VISIT:

The North Augusta Living History Park is not a public park. The land is leased from the City of North Augusta but funded and operated by the Olde Towne Preservation Association (OTPA) for the purpose of preserving and teaching the 18th century history of our area.  The grounds are open 9:00 am and the gates are locked at 5:00 pm unless the park has been reserved for a private event or the grounds crew is mowing the grass.  The buildings are all locked and alarmed unless there is a public event.

The park can be rented for private events: such as weddings, family reunions, parties, photo shoots, Easter egg hunts, etc. if you receive permission from the OTPA.  To do this, you need to contact the OTPA at least 48 hours before the day of your event.  You can call (803) 279-7560 ext. 2. 

Please help us preserve this beautiful park by cleaning up after yourselves and your pets. Be advised that the property is patrolled by the North Augusta Department of Public Safety and security cameras are active 24 hours a day.
