Nice old plantation off the Ashley river road. The house is interesting to visit and is quite big. The grounds are not as nice as the other plantations but still beautiful.

Loved seeing and touring the house and old cemetery. Amazing stories of this century old Plantation and how it came to be and how it has survived.

One of best plantations I have visited, along with Whitney plantation in Wallace, LA. The introductory discussion was a great to establish connection, and to educate tour takers. Highly recommend!

The grounds and home are beautiful. The best part was how Mack, the tour guide is so knowledgeable and entertaining. Everything is setup nicely and preserved. Great future plans.

Mack was a great tour guide. He's 5 stars for sure. The actual Drayton House is amazing too. The grounds, while sparse in comparison to some of the other plantations was still beautiful. When they finish their expansion in the coming months I'm sure it will be 5 stars. Definitely a must do!

This Was The tour I was looking for. Loved the original structure, didn't care if it wasn't furnished. The grounds are beautiful. Take a walk over to the reflecting pond, look for the gators. Take a walk back to the river.

One of the true plantations around Charleston. TONS of history, mostly untouched. Kids may find it a little boring.

Beautiful plantation house and grounds, currently undergoing some expansion to the visitor center to further the education aspect of the tours. Very knowledgeable staff who give a good insight into the layers of history the building has seen

If you want to see a mostly all original house, this is for you. we had a VERY good tour guide so that made it very interesting, but nonetheless if you like historic houses this is a good one, although it wast real big

Overall I would not recommend visiting Drayton Hall. The prices are quite high ($22 per adult). For that, you get a talk about the property and history, most of which they admit they don't known if the facts are true and verifiable.

After, you get to go on an agonizingly slow tour of the house, room by room, where the quite points out mundane facts, like the mantle and shelf above it were not installed in the same year. Another fun fact is the ceiling is the third one installed. You get the gist, very dry and boring.

Additionally, only the main house remains. The two flanking houses as shown in the pictures were demolished or destroyed after storms and an earthquake.

My recommendation is to skip Drayton Hall and just visit Magnolia Gardens down the road.

What beautiful architecture! I love the fact that this plantation is preserved in its original condition. There aren't many museums that can make that claim. The staff is very knowledgeable about the history and make the tours very interesting. We were so very pleased that we stopped here!
