We loved taking a step back in time and touring the house. Sparsely decorated to give you an idea of life in the 1800's in Charleston. We enjoyed the stories told by the docent as we walked up a set of stairs to give us...More

One of the handsomest Federal houses in America, with lovely grounds and superb furnishings. Excellent guided tours.
