If you're a history buff, this is right around the corner from us and is a great place to start! You can have a picnic on the river here too!

Make your way out to explore “South Carolina’s Abandoned Town.” Here you will find ruins from the 40 home village that once boasted a library, school, church and monthly fair. Now, the tabby fort, the old church tower and small buildings now on display. 300 State Park Rd. Colonial Dorchester is a state park and requests a donation of $2 a person.

10 minutes away! This state historic site is a great place for a lazy walk along the river and a picnic, along with a bit of local history. Very quiet and peaceful.
