Grove Plantation

Grove Plantation is a historic estate in Adams Run featuring a Federal-style main house surrounded by extensive grounds with mature oak trees. The main residence preserves traditional Southern architectural details and sits within a spacious landscape of preserved buildings and open areas.

The estate was founded in the early 1800s and became a major rice production center that influenced agricultural development in Charleston County. Its establishment occurred during the period when the Lowcountry region was a center of rice cultivation.

The property displays how people lived and worked here through its buildings and grounds, offering insight into agricultural practices and daily life of the period. The preserved structures show the social organization of plantation operations as it existed then.

Tours of the estate are available to visitors and cover the main house, outbuildings, and surrounding grounds. Plan your visit during regular operating periods when staff is present and all areas are open to explore.

The surrounding landscape reveals how rice cultivation was engineered to work with the Lowcountry's water systems and soil conditions. Visible features like dikes and water channels demonstrate the practical adaptations made to the local environment.
