Nice visitor's center with a gift shop and extremely clean restrooms. There's an outdoor seating area out back and a pet walk next to the parking area. They even had a pet bowl filled with water on the front porch.

This beautiful old plantation home makes the perfect museum. The people working there are fantastic and very informative about local history. There are also brochures and information concerning local sightseeing as well as a nice gift shop which sells locally crafted items.

Not much to see but I would still stop by. Has history of Sherman's March to the sea and Robet E Lee earth work's. This is free to see.
The “Frampton House” property was part of an original King’s Grant to the Frampton family in the 1700s. In 1865, General Sherman’s troops burned the plantation house and all the farm buildings that stood on this site. In 1868, John Frampton rebuilt the present charming Lowcountry farmhouse and continued to work the land.
In December of 1993, Wymann Boozer, a Columbia developer, donated the “Frampton House” to the Lowcountry Tourism Commission for the creation of the Lowcountry Visitor’s Center and Museum thereby assuring restoration of the old farmhouse.
The SC Lowcountry Tourism Commission has moved its offices into the upstairs of the “Frampton House” and the downstairs now serves as the Lowcountry Visitor’s Center, Museum & Gift Shop.
