Nestled on 37 acres of James Island, the McLeod Plantation Historic Site dates back to 1851 and now serves as a Gullah/Geechee heritage site.

Visitors can explore the Georgian-style plantation home, along with slave quarters and a cotton gin house, which offer a tangible connection to the past. The site also includes a Gullah cemetery, adding a layer of cultural and historical significance to the experience.
