Public Transportation to Clemson from Anderson

We are staying in a hotel in Anderson for family weekend. I dont want to drive to Clemson because I hear parking will be a nightmare. Does anyone know anything about the transportation from Anderson to Clemson?

From Monday to Friday, there's a bus that runs from 6:20 AM to 6:20 PM and it comes once every hour. (Clemson Area Transit - Anderson Route)
Living in Anderson probably wouldn't be convenient in the weekends since you'll have to drive. If you can, try and find a hotel in Central or on the Red Route because that runs 7 days a week.

All the CAT bus info is here: Clemson Area Transit - Home

Pierre where is Central and the Red Route? Do you know of any hotels?

dang, doesn't look like there are any hotels in the Central, SC area. The only hotels along the red route are in Clemson on Tiger Boulevard. It looks like you'll have to drive if you want to stay in a hotel outside of Clemson. I do know that the Parents Council is telling people to stay in a hotel in Greenville and taking a bus provided by Clemson for $65 from there to Clemson so maybe you could stay somewhere in Greenville and take buses from there?

Actually I just heard that there is parking available (if you get there early and dont mind walking). I also found a taxi that will do the round trip for $30! I have to do my planning now
