Review:
Dating back to the 1730s, the Hampton Plantation is a former rice plantation that has been declared a National Historic Landmark.
The plantation is no longer in use and much of the 274-acre property has reverted to its natural state, but the site offers a fascinating glimpse at plantation life during colonial times.
Visitors can take a tour of the property's three-story Georgian-style mansion, stroll through the manicured grounds, and visit the cemeteries of the Rutledge Family and the African American slaves who lived and worked on the plantation. Admission to the grounds is free, but a fee is charged to tour the house.
