Boone Hall Plantation
- Historic plantation
- Regional draw
- Mount Pleasant
Boone Hall Plantation interprets a Lowcountry agricultural estate in Mount Pleasant.
Its landscape includes the well-known oak avenue and surviving brick dwellings of enslaved people, whose labor was fundamental to the plantation’s wealth and operation.
Leave time for the Black History in America exhibits and the site’s interpretation of Gullah culture, rather than focusing only on the main house. The present house dates from the twentieth century and should not be mistaken for an original colonial residence. Check the operator’s current tours and access arrangements; much of a visit takes place outdoors.
