About

Over 1,000 private acres of pristine wildlife habitat, miles of biking and running trails, both fresh and salt water fishing/kayaking/paddle boarding ponds with fully equipped gym and cardio room, horse stable, archery range, amphitheater with fire pit, greenhouse and home office with fiberoptic high speed cable. A once in a lifetime getaway property with months worth of activities for all ages. Main living room has only TV in house.

Formerly a riverfront rice-cultivation property, the Preserve is located near the historic seaport of Georgetown, South Carolina—12 minutes from the KGGE FBO (which can accommodate a Gulfstream), 12 minute drive from spectacular, sandy-dunes Atlantic barrier island beaches, and 1 hour/15 minute drive from the lovely Charleston, South Carolina.

This once-upon-a-time plantation is at the confluence of two rivers; a meeting place of land and water teeming with wildlife. This unique property is being offered as a vacation rental retreat complete with private gated entrance and a full range of activities for guests. The property covers 1028.6 acres with a cozy 4BR main bunk house that offers an incredible water view with floating dock, together with extraordinary luxury outbuildings.

The Buildings-Main Bunk House: The spacious one and one-half story owner's house is situated on the waterfront in a grove of live oaks. The low country style home is spacious and offers comfortable luxury. Fully equipped kitchen, washer/dryer, 4 bathrooms and 4 bedrooms featuring 2 queen suites and 2 upstairs adorable bunk rooms under the eaves with 8 twins. The home is surrounded by nature—and nature only—as far as the eye can see. The bunk house overlooks a 40 acre salt-water impoundment, and is nestled in a centuries-old historic camellia garden and live-oak allee which open to miles and miles of trails through long-leaf pine savannah into ancient cypress bottoms and open fields.

Fully equipped gym and spa:
The walkways underneath the oaks wind through a centuries-old camellia garden to a charming architecturally designed modern cottage with fully equipped gym, massage room, steam shower and bath, and changing areas.

Stable with in-law/groom’s quarters:
The onsite stable which is beautifully designed after Belle Baruch’s own, with six stalls, feed, wash, and tack rooms, “stirrup cup” lounge with bar and fireplace, covered patio with Adirondack chairs, picnic table, and bike parking, groomsmen's quarters, and a roof accented by a clock and bell tower modeled after Hobcaw Barony stables—ring your hikers in for a stirrup cup! The stable boats a one bedroom and one bathroom. The stable overlooks pastures, archery targets (archery equipment stored at stable), and a stocked fish pond. Guests are welcome to bring horses with additional fee and prior approval.

The Land:
A wonderful feature of Weehaw is the layout of the property. The house, gardens, fields, pastures and all improvements are located in the middle of property surrounded by woods and rice fields.

Once through the gates you are transported into a nature preserve like no other!
