It is home to Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, an interdenominational, evangelical seminary; the Pingree School; Hamilton-Wenham Regional High School; and the Miles River Middle School.
Also in South Hamilton is Myopia Hunt Club, a private golf club which has hosted more United States Opens than any other course. Myopia is also the first private hunt club in the United States. President Taft was a previous member here.
South Hamilton was also the site of General George Patton's summer home. In honor of the general's achievements in World War II, the town named their central park after him, and even placed a full-sized WWII tank as a permanent fixture in the park. The local sports teams also use a general as their mascot, though the mascot is officially known as Gerry General.
