Middleton Place
Middleton Place Road, Summerville, SC 29485, USA
843-556-6020
First settled in 1675, right after colonists moved to modern-day South Carolina, this plantation was home to the Middleton family from 1741 until 1865. It sits 14 miles northwest of Charleston and features America’s oldest (and arguably most stunning) gardens. A tour of the buildings provides a good history of what life was like in the South over the past 350 years.
