Planning 1st Visit

So sorry, I keep getting this wrong.

Staying in Charleston in June and would like to take a day trip to Georgetowm. Can anyone tell me the best route to take, where to head for once we get to Georgetown and some ';must see'; places? We enjoy the waterfront, historic buildings, wandering around, etc.

Also a restaurant recommendation for lunch would be great. Thanks.

I would suggest visting Hampton Plantation State park just southwest of Georgetown. Follow 17 right north from Charleston. Just north of Georgetown is Brookfield Gardens...I think its called. Just a beautiful place. Do a google on Georgetown.

Hello Katie

on highway 17 approx 12 miles before Georgetown is Hopsewee Plantation home its open to the public you can check their web site out

www.hopsewee.com I can highly recommend the tour .

Georgetown is a small town , it has its own Historic area which is Safe to walk around , couple of musuems one of which is the kaminsky house again I can highy recommend the tour.

As for a nice place to eat lunch I would say the River Room or for a light lunch I would recommend the Brown Pelican cafe .

The water front area is a wood broadwalk that over looks the river sitting or walking along it in June well lets say your gonna get hot hot hot .

Dont decide to visit Georgetown on Sunday only not much opens and its very quiet on that day .

Am sure you will like Georgetown

Forgot to mention I have numerous photos from my visits you can check them out on webshots .
