About the Area!

Pimlico Plantation is located on the Cooper River in Moncks Corner. A short walk takes you to the community boat landing for gorgeous river views. There is also a small pond in the neighborhood for fishing or kayaking.

 

The historic district of Charleston is a 40-minute drive away, where you can enjoy amazing architecture, shopping, dining, museums, and tours. Note that if you want to be “near the beach”, we are about an hour to Isle of Palms and Folly Beach depending on the time of day and beach traffic.

 

The quaint main street of Summerville is an easy 30-minute drive away. Known as Flower Town in the Pines for its beautiful gardens and woodlands, Summerville is a small town with big charm. A charming spot with small-town coziness, Summerville offers a wide array of attractions and world-class cuisine 

 

Throughout Summerville are beautiful parks and walking trails and the Colonial Dorchester Historic Site. Abandoned at the start of the Revolutionary War, the town of Dorchester has all but disappeared, leaving only a handful of original structures remaining. Visitors can stand below the towering remains of the brick bell tower of St. George’s Anglican Church, catch a glimpse of a log wharf during low tide, or view the fort made of an oyster-shell concrete called tabby.

 

From Summerville, you can easily reach some of the area's best historic mansions/plantations located on the Ashley River, including Magnolia Plantation, Middleton Place, Drayton Hall, and Boone Hall. A 10-minute drive takes you to Cypress Gardens, which was originally a freshwater reserve for the nearby rice plantation. Visitors can enjoy the Butterfly House and the Swamparium, where large tanks feature fish, amphibians, and reptiles native to the South Carolina Lowcountry. Visitors can also rent a swamp boat to paddle along a marked trail, possibly spotting alligators, birds, and turtles, or take a stroll along the 3.5 miles of walking trails that loop through the swamp and gardens. These amazing gardens were used in several movies, including scenes from The Notebook, Cold Mountain, and The Patriot.

 

The Town of Moncks Corner is a small town in Berkeley County named for its landowner, Thomas Monck, back in 1728. With old-fashioned hospitality, southern charm, and history, you will want to visit the historical Train Depot, Mepkin Abbey, or any of the local shops and restaurants.

 

About US: We are a husband and wife team who recently became empty nesters after our youngest of five flew the nest.  We understand how challenging it can be to travel with children.   We spent extra care mapping out our property so it would be enjoyable for families. Parents can’t relax if they can’t contain their children….. we get that! You’ll be able to relax here! 

Each unit has child-safe locks on the main doors and audible alarms on fire exits.  We’ve added additional child-safe fencing and locks as an extra measure so there is a safe protection barrier between your door and the pool. We’ve gotten rave reviews and feedback on various platforms from parents with small children testifying to how nice it was for the parents to be able to relax and sleep well at night.  

 

We offer the highest level of service and want to make your visit as special and easy as possible. We want you to feel relaxed and enjoy your time together.
