I spent an afternoon here with my Mother and thoroughly enjoyed our time. The Gullah show was incredibly interesting and should definitely be a part of your visit. More

Boone Hall has more than just history, they have a festival for every season and reason. My personal favorite is Fright Nights during the Halloween season. More

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the plantation. The slave street is an incredibly informative provided time is taken to listen to the audio and to read the information avaiable. The Gullah theatre was one of the best historical experience we have had in the USA, the lady performing was amazing. The house tour whilst brief gave an insight to... More

After visiting Boone Hall Plantation a couple of weeks ago, I would say that I was disappointed. The "avenue of the oaks" was very beautiful, but the house & grounds were a big disappointment. You are not allowed to take pictures in the house. Besides that, there are only a few rooms open for public viewing. The garden had a... More

This is one of the better preserved Plantations in the Charleston area. It has a beautiful entry and the homestead is well preserved although not the original. Lots of fun activities if you bring children. The best part is the Slave quarter building that have been turned into a great Historical documentation about the slavery movement from West Africa until... More

We shot out under the "avenue of oaks", as well as in front of one of the iron gates. Beautiful!! Only complaint would... More

We took our 9 year niece to visit Boone Hall Plantation. It was a very interesting and educational tour. We reallly enjoyed the tour. The Gullah Experience presentation was our favorite part. The house tour wasn't all that we expected but it was still ok. We did enjoy the ride through the plantation and the fields. The Avenue of the... More

I agree with the other reviews as far as the traffic.....lots of construction too. But we did really enjoy the slave cabins. They tell a good story. I cannot remember the name of the guide who does a little singing and storytelling, but he was excellent! Didn't get there till late and felt rushed. The house was too modern and... More
