About 2.5 miles from Huntsfield Greene is the unique Clemson University International Center for Automotive Research campus, a 250 acre research center with five technology neighborhoods. Residents who work at CU-ICAR have appreciated the easy access to this campus, along with nearby I-85.
One of the outdoor jewels of Greenville County is the Lake Conestee Nature Preserve, providing 12+ miles of natural surface and paved trails, a large variety of wildlife, especially birds, numerous viewing stations over marshes and river, and unparalleled beauty and peace. Outside of the primary entrance to Lake Conestee Nature Preserve on Mauldin Road is a complex of recreational facilities run by Greenville County, including a dog park, baseball fields, playgrounds and shelter.
Across the road from Lake Conestee is the Wenwood Soccer Complex, with five lighted full-sized soccer fields.
