Lots of history and things to see. Allow for plenty of time for the carriage ride. The first two filled up quite quickly and had to wait for a third, but it was definitly worth the wait.

Ilse vom Kreuz

Arrive early to get nice pics without so many tourists on them. Tours start at 09:30am. Visit the 'Gullah Theather' to hear Veronica, one of the greatest storytellers I've ever seen!

Jon

America's most photographed plantation and is also the oldest working farm . Enjoy the row of live oak trees as well as history that surrounds the plantation. Must see: Gullah Presentation and Gardens

Christina Chin

Went when it was a bit dreary/rainy but just means no crowds and can get some great photos without ppl in your shot. Tour is short , only show a few rooms on 1st fl, can wander grounds after

Jodi Lynn

This was undoubtedly one of our favorite stops. The Gullah presetation is a must see. Set aside the whole day because you'll need it to experience everything they have to offer here.

Briana Bailey

Gorgeous property, and we enjoyed the Gullah culture lesson, but we could not wrap our heads around why it was $26 per person! The house tour did not show much. Good for history lovers.

This Is My South

Beautiful place. They have a lot of great information on slavery with original homes. Awesome Gullah presentation . Be sure to check the forecast, they won't do carriage rides on rainy days.

he Avenue of Oak was the best part of the place. You are not allow to take pictures or video of the inside Main House. Make about 2hrs available for this place. The tour lectures are redundant Read more

Nice people. House was not a mansion or part of plantation. Was built in 1930’s and house tour is only 1st floor.

Erik Cintron

This place is where a part of the notebook took place. It was so well kept by each owner. The pathway is aligned with trees . The tour was good but not worth 24$. But your paying for the pics

Katy O

If you want to learn about how local South Carolina food is produced, take the Plantation Coach Tour . If Trevor is around, get on his tour .

Lydia Beyrent

Loved in Spring! Slave homes are emotionally challenging if U have a heart. Must attend any events hosted by BHP, I.e. Taste of Charleston 2009, 2011

Lipton Iced Tea

After taking a stroll along the winding river , forget local farmers ' markets and head to the fields to enjoy picking your own strawberries , pumpkins or tomatoes .

Saloni M

The tram tour is the best way to see the plantation. Ask for the buy get one half off at the Boone hall farms cafe

Ken McCubbin

Make sure you go in the morning, before it gets hot or the school busses come for field trips.

Amy Bruckman

Skip the house tour . The house was completely rebuilt in the 1930s. Nothing historical or noteworthy about it. Our house is older. Maybe we should give tours !

Ashley Rose

This place is absolutely beautiful!!! A must see in charleston!!!

House was built in 1930's, so skip it and go straight to the former slave cabins to learn real history. Check out the Gullah presentation/storytelling.

North and South, Queen, and The Notebook were all filmed here.

Cari

Take the coach tour to get the lay of the land. There's a lot

Traci Scott

The Gullah culture presentation was great

Randall Bennington

This is the WORST managed historical site in the South. From the entry, to the welcome center, to the gardens over grown with weeds, it is a shrine to disorder! Go to Middleton Place instead

Jim Cross

Excellent hand made ice cream

This is Orry Main's plantation in the North&South miniseries.
