  Nice simple temple and quite well managed. Attended the Aarti on Sunday morning. They have the Hindu Yuva sangh gathering every Sunday morning for long years in the hall adjoining the temple which is led by Siva and dedicated team. Excellent initiative and they do a lot of community support and initiatives

  With it's very serene surroundings, the temple is very beautiful and peaceful. The temple has most of the Hindu God idols including Navagrahas. The priests are very amiable and perform pujas religiously. The temple premises can also be used for performing ritualistic ceremonies and can accommodate small gatherings. It's well maintained.

  This is my first visit here after arriving in SC and in the US. The ambience is good and there's a soothing homely feel to it. They have a webpage which is pretty regularly updated, so it's a good idea to check that for programs before scheduling a visit here!

  I visited the temple couple of times before pandemic and once after the pandemic. Today had a weird experience with the management. So, with a plan to visit the temple, I called to temple to check the timings for Sunday evening. The lady who picked my call mentioned, temple is only open for devotees who took appointments. So, I thought it was for safety and was ready to ask for an appointment and she continues saying , the appointment is mandatory which includes “Archana”(a special prayer on devotees name) and will cost $11. I was not interested in it and was trying to enquire if I can just visit the temple for just praying (usual purpose) and I got an answer saying “No”. I was puzzled and wanted to confirm again and asked so temple is not open for normal prayers? , same answer “No” I should not say like this but it was very commercial and definitely doesn’t sound fair to restrict a temple entry only with an entry ticket payment of $11. If it was even due to pandemic, the appointments should have a hard bound on number of devotees attending the temple with in allotted time slots and should be managed accordingly but not by simply demanding them to pay to pray. Also just to add, my statements are not because I cannot afford to pay but rather are out of a concern and weird confusion of the management style with which a Hindu temple is being run here. Not sure what are the intentions of management.
