Great to teach children about the history of Plantations and the South. The honey and items available in the gift shop are lovely too:)

I bought a Groupon for the Latta Equestrian center because I've been wanting to go horseback riding for the longest time (I haven't been in 8+ years). My boyfriend hasn't ever been horseback riding before so I made him go with me. As soon as we arrived I felt like I was in a different place entirely, it was nice... More

Latta Plantation has so many things to do you could easily spend the whole day there. This is a wonderful trip to take to get out the house and enjoy the great outdoors. The prices are very reasonable.

Went here for an Easter egg hunt 2012 with the family. Very pretty place and it was nice to see a piece of history. Would have enjoyed it more if there were more things telling you about the history of the plantation.

We only took some of the trails this time, as our time was limited. We will revisit. We would have preferred that the trails were more wooded instead of like roads.

What I like most about Latta hiking trails are the options. There are trails that are lake side, thru the woods, hiking/horse trails, and lots of smaller add on loops/out and backs......Pretty well marked and well maintained. Not always a trail map available at the main entrance. I bring mine back with me all the time. Some really nice large... More
