Visit One of These Plantations Near Myrtle Beach
Hopsewee Plantation
Enjoy one of the best Georgetown, SC, plantation tours when you visit Hopsewee Plantation.

Even though it was built almost 40 years before the Revolutionary War, only five families have ever owned this site.
This is one of the best plantations near Georgetown, located 40 minutes away from North Myrtle Beach. This is a great attraction to visit for a day trip. A typical low country rice plantation dwelling of the early 18th century, the beautiful plantation house features four rooms opening into a vast center hall on each floor, a full brick cellar, and attic rooms. The lovely staircase and the hand-carved molding in each room will take your breath away. The house was constructed on a brick foundation and is built of black cypress. The 18th and 19th-century furnishings will truly make your experience unforgettable.
