A beautiful church built by the wealthy Charlestonians for when they would come up to the mountains during the warmer months to escape the heat on the coast.


The graves are from at least the 1700s of many members of prominent Charleston families. There's also a section for the slaves and former slaves and their children. This place is full of history and beauty. You can also explore the inside of the church.

This is the apple orchard our family has been going to for years. September is the perfect time to go apple picking, get apple cider and fresh apple cider doughnuts.


Our apple butter wedding favors are made with apples from this orchard.
