- GHGreer HockemeierNov 30, 20241.0Hours said they were open until 1pm, but I got there at 12:39pm and no one was there. Drove 30 minutes to mail something so frustrating that they were closed.
- MIMarianne IwanskiJan 23, 20231.0We have been waiting several days for a package that was to be here 5 days ago(we can pick up instead of delivery, not a problem). The problem is that this location was closed because the main Pickens post office needed help, so the one person who runs this office was sent there, and no one was here to open this office. So our package has sat in Sunset waiting to be picked up. Even now, we don’t know if it’s open because no one answers the phone there even if they’re open.
- BGB GrantJan 16, 20215.0folks who are saying this is a post office in the middle of nowhere have no idea that there are several very large neighborhoods within a few miles. If they're just driving along 11, they'll never see them since I suppose they don't have digital maps on their phones to look around and see who might be living nearby this tiny post office.. the next closest post office is a 40 mile round trip down to Pickens.
- SMSenor MuyGuapoMar 10, 20205.0An iconic representation of US rural postal service for well over a century, Sunset Post Office, ZIP 29685, is located directly on the Cherokee Foothills Scenic Trail and an essential service to the area as well as a depot for transferal of products and services, providing incentives and fostering growth and investment of locally owned and managed businesses, optimizing the utilization of local assets, physical or otherwise, while serving as a local landmark since 1905. Incorrectly attributed by one reviewer as being "in the middle of nowhere", which is actually about 12 miles north, across the state line.
