Plantation Oaks Inn

I planned on purchasing this lovely Inn and drove all the way across the country in a loaded down truck, sold my house for under market value quickly to put the funds together, paid for inspections, bought the domain, met with engineers and then got denied by the Lender due to a commercial operation in residential zoning. These people kept my $15,000 deposit due to no fault of my own. They very often keep deposits no matter what, check their reviews. Not nice people!!! There’s lots of nice Airbnb’s in Mount Pleasant just google short term rentals!

From the sweet sound of the concert of Cicadas, the Spanish Moss hanging from the trees, the unique birds that pay their beautiful back garden a visit, and the Fiddler Crabs that hide from you as you walk on the inn's private dock, this inn truly has character. You will feel like you are visiting family or friends. The hospitality of the owners is quite special. The proprietor clearly made an effort to wear a mask and book fewer people at a time, for social distancing. I was absolutely delighted with my stay. The property is secure. I felt safe as both a lone female traveler and one with the desire to not be around the crowds of big hotels during these challenging times in our nation. I could truly relax. The wi-fi was great, the room was clean, breakfast was perfect. I loved the fact that the a/c not only worked well and cooled evenly but was not overwhelmingly loud which I find in many hotels. The Boone Plantation is just around the corner. Downtown Charleston is a reasonable distance away and has some great, great restaurants. I highly recommend Magnolias. Lyft and Uber service the area but I would stick with Uber in Charleston, and Mt. Pleasant, in general. Lyft was not very dependable. I very much look forward to staying here on my next visit.

I was disappointed that I was charged for entire weekend of lodging when I was unable to travel to location secondary to CoronaVirus. I contacted the innkeeper as soon as travel was cancelled, and attending seminar was prohibited but was not reimbursed for any of the costs of both nights of lodging. Any level of understanding was not verbalized to me when I called to cancel prior to arrival. I was told I needed to call and cancel 14 days prior before there was a Coronavirus. I was told the virus was not in Charleston so there would be no reimbursement for either night. I was looking forward to my seminar and a stay in the B & B but I believe the situation could have been handled much differently as I was also dealing with airlines/car rentals which were much more understanding than the B & B was. What a sad response during a nationwide state of emergency which was in force at the time.
