Travel just off the beaten path, and you’ll find the historic and inherently charming Plantation Oaks Inn – an intimate bed and breakfast that’s found on the former grounds of a plantation, and which is bordered by 300-year-old live oak trees and lush foliage. Close to an array of golf courses, historic sites, and the Isle of Palms county beach, but with a feel that’s refreshingly miles away from the rest of the world, this destination is the perfect spot to simply relax.

The Plantation Oaks Inn features a full daily breakfast as well as a host of small common areas that include a deck with bistro-style seating, a picnic area under a live oak tree, a hammock, a den, and a dock that extends to a scenic tidal creek. There are just five individual rooms within the inn, which are beautifully appointed with wood flooring, private bathrooms, and other extras like TVs, four-poster beds, and sitting areas. (Free wireless internet access is also available throughout the Inn.) With cool attractions like the Charles Pinckney National Historic Site located right in the neighborhood, and easy access to downtown Charleston and the nearby shoreline, the Plantation Oaks Inn is a unique destination that brings out the charm of the low country.
