• Lots of history about the grounds.
• Horrid road and hot drinks.

“Visited on 3 April 2009. The gate man had a bad attitude. The road was almost impassable due to either rains or poor road maintenance by the owner. One of the staff drove down the road from the house dragging a pipe to smooth the road surface. Hope they grade/ repair this horrid road before the season picks up. House and ground were nice. The small snack shack was well stocked with items, but neither of the drink coolers were working. All of the drinks were hot! The sales person was on her laptop and could care less as to the drink cooler not working. Hope the owner gets this place fixed before the tourists show up. All in all the plantation is a good place to spend some time and money.”

• The history and two of the moves made there about our history.
• There are no negatives.

“My husband and I visited bone hall plantation last year on the anniversary of the day the south left the north. I have to tell you bone hall was the best value for the money. At $14.50 per adult, they were the cheapest plantation in town. You get guided house tour, a guided garden tour, and a guided slave street and history tour! The only thing extra was the tram tour, which we went on, and loved! Erica was our tour guide; she was very informative, and so much fun! Erica truly made history come alive! We are going back this year. We loved it there.”

• Everything was wonderful!
• The house is not original.

“My family and I visited Boone Hall plantation, as well as some others in the area. I have to say, Boone Hall was the best value for the money. At $14.50 per adult, they were the cheapest plantation in town, AND, included in that admission is a 20 minute play "Life in the South," the 45 minute "Exploring the Gullah Culture", as well as a guided Garden Tour, and a guided Slave Street and History tour! The only thing extra was the tram tour, which we went on, and loved! The tram was $5 for adults, and children I believe, were $3, I do know that our house guide said that kids under 6 could not ride the tram for safety (no seatbelt). The house was a bit disappointing since it was built in 1936, and you can't see the upstairs because the owners still live there, but the guide made it worth it! Erica was our tour guide, she was very informative, and so much fun! Our kids (12 & 15) didn't think they would enjoy it, but Erica truly made history come alive! We'd go back in a heartbeat!”
