Haunted Inns and Other Places

There are said to be Confederate soldiers, angry spirits, energy forces, and friendly ghosts who share accommodations at numerous lodging places in South Carolina. These sightings include: men, women, children, Native Americans and even a white dog. Some inns have recent histories of unusual happenings and occasional sightings. At one Inn, the resident cat talks to "someone" frequently.

Spend the night on a working farm or a plantation offering bed & breakfast services, canoe into your secluded treehouse on the forested banks of the Edisto River, or see historic Charleston from a totally unique perspective aboard your own private yacht. These luxury vessels offer weekday and weekend accommodations for up to three couples.
