McLeod Plantation Historic Site in Charleston, SC

Located roughly two miles from downtown Charleston, McLeod Plantation Historical Site has been open to the public since April of 2015.
If visiting, I recommend signing up for an official tour of the grounds at the welcome center. Tour guides are professional, enthusiastic, and well versed in the history of McLeod Plantation Historic Site. You can also do a self guided tour of the grounds. The welcome center includes a gift shop and well maintained restrooms.
Video highlights include views of The McLeod Home, Transition Row, beautifully landscaped grounds, and views from within the McLeod Home.

Beauty at its finest.

The McLeod Plantation is located on James island where I grew up. We lived in Secessionville Acres, site of Fort Lamar. Before the war & Battle of Secessionville the island was home to wealthy planters. There are 3 beautiful mansions; 1 Victorian & 2 antebellum Greek Revival homes. There were hundreds of blank headstones & artillery scattered in the woods we played in. Like McLeod I’m happy all of these are finally protected historical sites- it took long enough! . Thanks for your video!

Despite their tulmultuous histories, plantation homes are some of the most beautiful well-designed in America. Said by Leonardo da Vinci, simplicity truly is the ultimate sophistication!

What type of trees are those? The ones with the mossy looking beards. I enjoyed this! I've never been to a plantation or seen one up close. Thanks Rey! You've got a new subscriber here😁

Thank you! Spanish moss is most popular on oak trees.

Oh I am pleased you asked the question. They are lovely, do they get green leaves ever, they sort of look like they are going through a stage.😊

@@tracyanne8616 They are Live Oaks, they drop their leaves in the spring and they stay green year round.

Oak trees with Spanish Moss growing on them. Classic southern stuff.

😂😂😂 tenant house 🤔. Let's history 101. I visited Boone Hall, and THEIR SLAVE QUARTERS STATED THAT. If you were a slave YOU COULDN'T BE A TENANT. You couldn't have a lease😂😂😂 what the what what...

I haven’t been to Boone Hall, but the tour guides at McLeod are outstanding, professional, and full of knowledge.
